For God's sake, that's not excuse making; he's simply managing expectation. Why is it that seemingly anything he says is twisted to the negative by some?

well , why does he need to comment about it then? "Managing expectation" is the biggest hoot I have read on here for a very long time, thank you. I don't need to "twist" anything thorn says. you should phone him and start a double act.

Friendlies are a chance to get match fit and for the new lads to gel with the rest of the team.

Results are meaningless, obviously nice to win, but not important.

poor effort, why bring the "afflicted" into it? if you think mocking those less fortunate than us is funny you make my case. defenders of the third rate like you is part of the reason we are where we are.

A person can be afflicted with poor judgement, as I suspect you are. No jibes from me at those with genuine problems. And it's not just managers who can be third rate - supporters can be too; as you clearly demonstrate

I like people like Mongo. They make it possible for the top of the barrel to exist...

Ffs - do you think he specifically telephoned the CT or Coventry City Mad specifically to get a plea out to fans?

It is most probably 1 quote from a press conference that has been specifically moulded in to a story.

ok, its the press ,he said nothing, or it was distorted. he is a great manager and knows what he is doing, I am totally out of order. your clearly far more knowledgable than me.

Why do some people on here even bother supporting a football club if all they are going to do is criticise every single action?

What kind of fool would see Thorn's quote as excuse making?!

I'm not sure what some people's problem is with Thorn. My guess is they're angry at being in League 1, but too stupid to aim their anger at our shocking owners.

The sort of fool who chooses a nom de plume that insinuates they're capable to foretelling the future; but still proceeds to make themselves look foolhardy?

Pre season friendlies are all about trying out new formations and getting match fit. So if we use 18 players during the game we should win by lots of goals?

So are we bashing AT before even the first friendly or have we got WUM'S amongst us?

Interesting to see how people read things differently ...

I read the article and my first thought was "don't judge them on their first performance? Haha, Andy, clearly you know us too well"
