Arthur Pint All those faults and he still managed to make us the 24th best team in England this season.

Just imagine what he could have achieved had he been able to fix all those things.

Never berating woeful performances by some of his 'favourites'


I disagree with this, Coppell never publicly berated anyone for a woeful performance such is his management style, I'm not really sure berating someone whether it be in public or behind closed doors is a terrific management technique anyway?


Was his oft repeated phrase:

"I don't know why this <failure> happened"

not his code for

"...well I've done what I need to do: I've told the players what needs to be done, I know that they are capable, but they've failed in their execution - but I'm not criticizing my players"

Crowthorne Royal Stephen Hunt's fall to look like a poor mans Robbie Savage from playing like Michael Essien in our first season in The Prem

I fail to see how anyone (other than media pundits who don't have a clue) can make any comparison between Savage and Hunt, poor imitation or otherwise.

Their styles and roles within the team aren't, nor have ever been, remotely similar. I can see why lazy reporters, who know nothing about him other than the fact that he injured Cech, assume he must be a tough-tackling niggly kind of player who is out there to rile the opposition, but that's never been his game. I don't recall him doing too much that made me think of Essien either, come to think of it.


Overall though, what I won't miss next season is this season. Or last season for that matter.

Cardiff's arsehole of a ground.
Norwich's twatty stewards, who couldn't 'see' what the Narge fans were doing wrong, but tried stopped me + mates from singing along to our songs.
Southampton fans and city...shithole.
The criers on the tv, please please don't do it again.
The MVP
Kitson's pure lazyness.
Hahnemann's aimless hooofs upfield, Doobs as well.
Lita's one-goal-a-season.

Never had a problem TBH. Even walking down towards the car with them all. Passion or aggression. I think they will struggle to find the atmosphere in another souless modern stadium. Traditional stadiums are slowly being eroded out of the modern game. I for one will miss Ninian Park.

Crowthorne Royal never having a Plan B


Why is this the new favourite phrase of the football fan?? I don't know what kickstarted it but all of a sudden you have fans all over the country describing their managers failings as 'never having a plan B'

Only slightly less moronic than saying 'he's lost the dressing room'

Yer tis a shame, I almost get bored going to the Mad Stad now, no life in it at all in comparison to some older stadiums. But then maybe athat's becuse I've gone to more away games this year and they are always louder from our perspective
