New Spireite Boss

[PositiveOmen]

I do find it interesting which clubs are like, 'unlucky lads, you play great football and you've been screwed', and which are loving it, as if they couldn't wait for little Chesterfield to get some shit. League One is a mind fuck of complex relationships.

 

[THE LAST WALTZ]

What the fuck is the Proact? Isn't that a laxative?

He would need to be careful then

 

[HertsWolf]

Saunders wouldn't last more than a few days if it was. He'd be out.

 

[Bottega Don]

I'm sorry guys

 

[Cashis]

Have you got the £1m+ it'll cost?

hahaha, give over, we'll get 750k and we'll make out like we've made the deal of the century knowing Chris Teflon Turner.

Possibly correlated by distance. Those further away in the former category, those nearer in the latter.

 

[PositiveOmen]

Scunthorpe always have our back.

If I supported any of the other localish sides, i'd be pissed if Chesterfield finished above us as well to be fair, no judgement on my part.

 

[Bottega Don]

We've played you so often we're basically all fans of Chesterfield.

 

[SamScfc]

This appointment just has no logic.

The usual names linked to jobs like this are Dave Jones and Gary Megson, and the reaction to that is a massive no, but at least with them two, while they might be awful appointments, there is logic behind it. But with Saunders there's no logic at all, he's been relegated 3 years in a row. It has to be the cheap option.

 

[Chris]

It could be worse....



....and be a Blackpool fan

Crawley played the worst football I've seen when we played them this season. Should've gone for Steven 'Sexy Football' Pressley.

They were fucking dreadful at ours. We won three nowt having never got out of third gear. Does anyone have anything positive to add?

However if he brings Bobson Bawling with him, i'll give him, oooh, an extra month before losing my rag if results are shit (don't know owt about the player but it's a magnificent name).

I see the messageboard has cracked up under the weight of venting spleens?

 

[PositiveOmen]

I've been thinking of positives. This is my list.

1. We might actually shoot when we get in the box.
2. Saunders doesn't come across as the short corners kind of guy.
3. He's Welsh, so the potential for abuse when it all goes tits up is limitless.

 

[Cashis]

I like us passing around the box and I like short corners

 

[Double J]

If the players, much like the fans, think this is a bad appointment, you could be challenging for the League 2 play offs in 2017.

Essential they take on board what Dean has to say, that way you can be safely in mid table.

 

[Big Bird]

Have you got the £1m+ it'll cost?

We'll get well over that if/when Luongo leaves so yes. How much will actually be reinvested in playing staff is another matter.

 

[BaslowBlue]

I'm going to have to change my avatar ffs.

 

[Bottega Don]

I'm going to have to change my avatar ffs.

That's the worst thing about it ffs.

Well you're persistent, i'll give you that.

 

[Spirederman]

Bottega Don, supporting CFC as his second club since the dawn of time.

Quick question BTW Don....

Who's your favourite CFC poster on 1FF??

Is that really a question? It's quite obvious...

LuSive.






Only joking, of course it's the classy gent that is Spirederman.

 

[SpireiteDan]

If it's not Sire, then it's the wrong answer.

 

[Spirederman]

Of course it's fucking me. Me and Quixote have an extremely cordial shoutbox relationship.

Add to that I finished 4th in the 50 Top Posters on 1FF poll, despite very rarely been seen in the L1 forum, then it was obvious.

Great fan of his. Pisses all over Hedonist Puncture.

 

[Posh Hammer]

Surely Ferguson was an option. He's dogshite, but he's certainly a cut above Saunders!

 

[Bartonyellow]

A most bizarre appointment I have to say. He is punching well above his weight.
Does it mean u going down next year? No. But I can't see play offs again if I'm honest.

 

[Millersfan]

Hahaha deary me. As for Cook, what a bellend. Pompey in League 2 is hardly a Leeds in League 1 situation. Have they even got any money? Should have stayed.

 

[T.A]

2.5 million budget according to their fans. Cook just left a sinking ship it seems.

 

[PrestonCha]

He used to have a formidable partnership up-front with Dalian Atkinson at Villa, back when they were sponsored by a yoghurt firm.

 

[PositiveOmen]

For the record, I don't think we'll go down, but it won't be pretty. It's not the Blackpool meltdown that people are making it out to be. It's just gutting in comparison to the season we've just had, that's all.

I think he'll have us low midtable, playing meh 'hard to beat' football. Even if we lose a couple of stars, it's still a 1.6ish budget, which will be more than some. And we're pretty central as a location for players considering us. He won't have 'throw money at it and see if it works' Portsmouth budget, but he'll not be running on scraps.
