Welcome Steve Clemence

Another good NWT slot tonight, too: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m ... s-31052024
From 17:30. The spotlight on Barrow this season from BBCNW has been great. I wonder if they intend to put them all together as a programme for iPlayer?
(Good item on River Mersey Pilot preparing for Queen Anne at 21:45, too.)

Yep BBC the same that gives us Radio coverage of games even when in non league.
Remember in the old days having to catch the Newspaper seller who used to be by the Duke of Edinburgh till late in all weathers to get a concise report in the pink Lancashire post?

Why have we appointed a manager who was sacked from a club that finished lower than us. ! I wish him well,but right now I am a bit underwhelmed and baffled.

Jesus Christ it doesn't take long does it

Not wrong its a forum i know free speach is not popular in the Labour Party or North Korea .

Does not mean people will not get behind him.

I was hoping Dianne Abbott had got the job as the lighter colour Tories are expelling anyone with charisma or a personality.

Not a bad fit seen as though he nearly got the managers job before David dunn

I think you've got the point across that you have inside knowledge

If that's the case Jeff why did Wild leave?

[jeff1966]

He was happy to lead to barrow to their highest league position in decades, despite having relegation form since January, he didn’t like Ian wood having a lot of involvement and wanted more money than the board were willing to chuck at after what was basically a failure towards the end of the season. He was stubborn man with regards to tactics which was clear for all to see. Also a divide in the dressing room between older and younger players, as Pete wouldn’t rollock any of the “older players” but would happily single out less senior players

Thanks for the info. Everything seemed to go tits up after the Morecambe game, maybe, like you say, younger players got a bollocking but nothing was said to Chester over his mistake (all players can make simple mistakes though at any level) You do have a reliable source which appreciate you can’t reveal, but reminds me of this old show

Was Canavan injured-or did Wild fall out with him?

It started well before the Morecambe game,think back to February.

Listen to P Hornby it was obviously some sirr of fall out.
PW certainly had his short comings which showed with the dropping away of our league form.

The odd person has slagged him off on FB EFL2 but he was successful but his time had come and we should thank him for what he did.

At the end of the day the Board must have discussed with I Wood how we could stop this happening for a third time.

P Hornby is a accountant and done a very good job for us,that does not mean he cannot be ruthless as we know it was not a gun that took Al Capone down but a accountant inspecteing his accounts that sent him to jail.

Roll on August
