Match Thread Supporter's Meeting with Doug King Match Thread (44 Viewers)

[Major Tom]

Fuck it, gonna say it. Doug is showing some balls here. If what he says is true then I can see why it's played out the way it has. It would be a mental move if he was telling porkies. Shite that Robins has no right to reply.

Wonder if there is a route back into the club for Adi? Him and Lampard and 100s of Chelsea youngsters

Could you imagine that never put those two together ..would placate a lot of fans if Adi came back?

I think Doug keeping his cards close to his chest with the new manager talk

His deck

 

[quinn1971]

Surely director of football needs to come in first to choose head coach, that‘ll take time

 

[Bugsy]

The mission is now after that is don't get relegated or we're truly finished

 

[ptr]

Fuck sake got to all sing along to live and die now in our living rooms. Bit strange.

 

[David O'Day]

Or he has better solicitors

They are both not poor men and can afford decent briefs

 

[Jamesimus]

Not a bad thing. Can't rush this appointment

Agreed! Sounds like he is aware of this. I’d still like to know a bit more about what they’re looking for in a candidate and what metrics are they using to measure whether they are the right candidate.

 

[covcity4life]

That was good although gutted manager not close. But more important to get it right now

 

[MalcSB]

If this is true which I can't see him defaming people like this if not then some folk need to be very sorry about what the said about our performance dorector.

Sounds like they got Robins what he wanted most;y.

I for one apologise.

 

[Skyblueweeman]

Ok, this is far better than I thought

If true then a lot of people on here and facebook need to be a bit sheepish

Not listening. In what way?

 

[ExpatSkyBlue]

Match ratings -

Doug 8 (MoM)

Lorna 2 - jumps in too quickly, too impetuous

Clive - 5 too quiet from such a big name

Drummer - 2 one moment of stupidity

 

[fatso]

After tonight, who would want to work under someone who will throw them under the bus so openly if / when it doesn’t work

That's the same at every football club, the average manager lasts 12-18 months, before getting a big payoff.

We won't be short of applicants.

 

[procdoc]

They are both not poor men and can afford decent briefs

What’s their underwear got to do with anything?

 

[Nick]

Agreed! Sounds like he is aware of this. I’d still like to know a bit more about what they’re looking for in a candidate and what metrics are they using to measure whether they are the right candidate.

That's where he should have been quizzed really. Not the "Will you have Adi back" or the nonsense the CWR presenters ranted about.

 

[Bugsy]

Back the boys that's all we can do lads...PUSB

 

[covcity4life]

I for one apologise.

Respect that

 

[eyesee]

didn't realise how bad the production is on WLADITT.
shocking.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Sorry, did either of our reps tonight get to ask a question?

Ms did I didn’t

 

[ccfctommy]

This Austin fella sounds like John Sitton , if says bring ya dinner it’s all going to go off

I thought that. The same accent and everything!

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

Are they fuck a premier league fit team hahaha didn't he say we had 7 out injured the weekend?

Same as Manchester City then

 

[Nick]

I think with good journalists he could have been pressured and questioned properly.

Not just randomly stopping him saying something like that to read unrelated voice notes ffs.

 

[Jamesimus]

That's where he should have been quizzed really. Not the "Will you have Adi back" or the nonsense the CWR presenters ranted about.

Exactly. Stuff that actually matters, like our future manager.

I bet the CWR staff are all frequent Facebook forum users…

 

[Osullivan18]

Did I miss the end of his original answer about dismantling the coaching team being the reason behind the sacking? (Also later on he mentioned the team position being the reason with us being 18th and how we cannot be relegated) He mentioned about bringing in a new system, a number 2 not coming in and that seemed to be it, so he was sacked for not bringing in a number 2?

 

[shmmeee]

What is this backing music??

 

[covcity4life]

Cwr women gonna pop back up for final word now. I'm just doing my jobbbbbb

 

[Nick]

Exactly. Stuff that actually matters, like our future manager.

I bet the CWR staff are all frequent Facebook forum users…

"I am team DK"

What the fuck, why read that out? Quiz him properly.

 

[clint van damme]

We've not had good journalism in this city for years.
Even Giblet would have been better

 

[shmmeee]

I think Doug keeping his deck close to his chest with the new manager talk

Fixed

 

[Jamesimus]

Honestly, I think I kind of agree with the fitness thing so far this season we have looked fitter than a lot of teams in the final quarter of games, whether our performances have been great in them is defo questionable.

 

[TomRad85]

So I was right about everything, too predictable. 2/10.

 

[lewys33]

Ffs I tried to use this thread to try and catch up but I couldn’t keep up for all the “black & deck-er” posts!

so … who’s going to apologise to Will?

 

[Ian1779]

Clearly not close to a new manager.

Maybe not a bad thing if we’re meh about Lampard

 

[We'll_live_and_die]

So Robins or Viveash marriage broke down?

 

[Theonlywayisskyblue]

He did say at the end that MR would have his say when he's ready or something like that. Whether or not you buy the whole story I agree he's in Court for defamation if he's lying. Also any prospective owner/Chairman listening to that might think twice about hiring MR ?

 

[Domo]

Surprised he doesn't say roster Instead of desk blergh
