    Feels like Nixon's showing his true colours now, seems to be a tad over keen to stick the knife in. Think people are right that he isn't getting insider info these days and it's pissing him off.

    Bob reckons there’s an audience at the AOL with Johnson and the scouting team? What on earth does that mean?

    I must admit, he does appear a little bitter, doesn't he?

  6. My problem is that I'm prone to optimism marra. I've liked some of what I've seen in recent weeks and I'm looking for a controlled,attacking performance showing a good idea of our intent for the season. I'm not looking for hoofs from back to front to no-one in particular, or lots of sideways/backwards passing because of a lack of forward options, or our defenders being bullied particularly from opposition set pieces. High pressing energy,lots of mobility and cohesive ideas are the order of the day.
    If we play like that,even if we get beat by the odd goal,I'll be pleased. If we play like that and win,I'll be delighted.
    PS: Friday is fish and chip day.....get on and sort your stomach out! :emoticon-0105-wink:

    What does 'supposed bids' mean? Either we are making bids or we aren't, he can't pretend to be ITK and passing on info and then not know the validity of it.

    Mind, I think he's a know nowt gobshite anyway.

    All I would say to that is the club already appears to have a massive amount of debt (think it’s been quoted to loose £8-10 million this year) so you can’t keep adding to that endlessly
    Being in League One is a reflection of how the club has been ran an tret over the last few years

    Not saying we'd lose them all but not having players in key areas will mean we're likely to get less points than of we were at full strength. Look at our squad. Doesn't look good. Now take 3 or 4 out at random for injuries or suspension, we'd be in real trouble.

    I've seen zero posts saying that. Again too much extremism

    correct, but people do seem to put a lot of faith in him and (something i find bizarre) prefer to believe him, or any other source, simply because the club themselves are keeping tight lipped..normally i am with the club and the current 'say nowt till there is summit to say' approach but in this instance i feel it would be wise to make a statement to try to appease the fans as too many are latching onto such tweets and comments and it is stirring a little more discontent each time.

    Nixon coming across as a bitter twat thriving off questions being thrown at him.

    Isn't Nixon not the one who was telling everyone we had made bids in the first place?
