FFS talk about some fans being fickle.
he’s had what, approx five training sessions with them.
 
Agree with all the above.
SK I have seen very similar posts on social media.
One from someone who can’t wait to ya all. “I told you so”.

I think if we’d appointed Pep Guardiola, we would have fans doing more whining than a spin dryer!
He’s inherited a team that was poorly managed, it’s going to take more than a bloody week to sort!

You'd have used Mourinho as the example 5 years ago but now you would be justified in moaning about his dinosaur tactics 😝
 
Those moaning are either nobbers or permanent contrarians who enjoy stirring up strife on the boards. I talk to a lot of fans at matches and locally, and I haven't found anyone who disapproves of Neil Critchley. People are saying he's got the right qualifications, the right attitude, let's give him a chance.

And I would guess that most of these comments are from the North Stand, although there is idiots all over, the North stand does seem to have the monopoly.

That has to be tempered that when the North is good, it makes the difference.
 
I remember in the prem season when the bloke behind me moaned when we went 2-0 up against United at home.

I said at half time that day I would take a draw now and that we would probably lose - but we were actually 2-0 up against United.

Same bloke Moaned about us when we beat Liverpool.

I know what happened next, but its not the point!

Why would he moan when we beat Liverpool ?
 
Really? Give the bloke a chance ffs

We’ll see what he does after the summer when he cleans out the shite and brings his own players in

Cant tar us all with the same brush mate. I am in the North and think my comments on this differ to what you suggest.

There certainly not knobbers mate. The one that got me was the comment about not going Saturday as season ticket holders but sat through the pile of shite Grayson served up!!

Yep, the internet is an echo chamber of nonsense.

No one I know thinks much is going to change this season, the squad is bang average and this is a long term project.

Where have all these "quotes" come from? Random cretins on Facebook?
 
Although he wasn’t my number one target it’s only his second game. Granted you would hope that a new manager would get a few wins early on but it is what it is. Loads of work to be done and no expectations. Was reading the other board and owain glwhatever his name is was at the forefront of the ‘I told you so brigade’🙄

FFS give him a chance, he has inherited Graysons squad, yeah some good players but let's see who he brings in and back him to the hilt.

I'm sure he can identify the players he needs to play with the style and attitude he wants.
And it needn't cost a fortune.

This isn't a note of regret about Evo not getting the job, but remember his quote about Barrow playing stylish, winning football on a low budget?
"If you want to play, recruit footballers. Then coach them. Teach them. Improve them."

It looks like a desperate appointment to me

Got turned down by several others then give the job to a guy from a youth team

Agree about the lack of a backroom team as well

Any manager worth his salt would bring in his own people "

Guess who? He lives in Wales
 
Saw plenty enough in that second half to give good reason for optimism. Unfortunately, we live in an instant gratification society these days so the stamping of feet tantrums and toys being thrown out of the pram is sadly inevitable from the "I want it now" babies!
 
I opposed Grayson`s appointment from the start as yesterday`s man and sadly I was right.

As far as Critchley is concerned like everyone else I haven`t a clue as he`s no real track record but it`s obviously far too early to tell right now.My only reservation is that they said Evatt was too inexperienced in management then they picked someone who has no experience at all but I wish him well,he must be quickly learning the size of his task.

That jumped up OG it’s got to be.

Critchley needs a season and a half minimum to bring his own players in and implement his own style and philosophy on the club.

2 games in with a duff squad is not the time to panic

its actually worth watching since grayson went,

It doesn't help that it seems we can't hit a cow's Arse with a banjo at present
 
His post match assessment seemed to me to be realistic, open, honest and accepting.

Graysons would have been defensive, negative, closed body language looking at the floor, and pointing out how the players got it wrong.

judge him after 10 games!

I personally will be giving NC far longer than 10 games. He is working with a squad he inherited and will need to bring his own players in. I will judge him after a fair chunk of next season personally
 
We have a few contrarian posters who would argue that black was white if they thought it was going to get them some attention. They are best ignored : they seem more interested in scoring points for themselves than they are in supporting the club.

Dont take too much notice of social media trolls, vast majority are fans of other clubs on a wind up or never been to a BFC game in their lives
 
Few of the players he inherited will be up to the style of play he was brought here to instil. He needs a good couple of transfer windows to bring in the players he needs. This is a long term project and not a two game one. We should all get behind him.
 
I see Phil is still reeling them in over there.
Apparently Grayson wasn’t given enough time but Critchley only deserves one more game 😂
 
I haven't noticed it to be honest. He is a great appointment, make no mistake. The problem he has is a bog average squad with some really good loan players. I am sure he will get some of the squad to improve a lot and others just won't cut it. It's re-build for next season with a very important transfer window and very important decisions about who to keep.

I am mega positive and on an aside I am happy Evo didn't get the job now because he would have been on a hiding to nothing with this squad and I would hate to have seen the supporters turn against him.

NC is just the man to take us forward so let's enjoy it.
