Let’s hope he turns the corner

1.Blackpool — relegated
2. Villa — with Gerrard lead the, into the relegation zone but today they qualified for the EU Cup &
3.QPR — nailed on relegation candidates after taking over in a play off spot — after being relived they managed (just) to stay up

Slightly poor calender year — perhaps I am over worrying

QR - Had eleven games.

He wasn’t even our manager during preseason so let’s tick that one off the list

People are still saying that his decision to leave Blackpool as and when he did caused our decline . So why should it be ticked off . Just as his decision to join and advise Gerrard caused them to play boring football and be shit. Finally with QPR ,it was totally his decision because he thought he could save them and they became worse. We are doomed.
 
Funny how people try and defend one of the worst managers in recent months just because he is now our manager. I still want Blackpool to do well and get promoted ,but that does not stop me looking at a true picture about our manager and speaking what I can consider the truth. We have signed a failure and I see nothing but doom and gloom , and before I start getting insults ,I will just point out it is just an opinion and I still hope that I am proved wrong.

Respect your opinion WOT, everyone is entitled to one.
He wasn't the manager of Villa, SG was and the buck stops with him on that one.
QPR was a disaster but they were in the shit before he went there. How many games did it take ainsworth to turn things around?
Promotion from league 1 then comfortably keeping us in the championship, hardly a failure with us?

Because it has absolutely no impact on his managerial credentials which is what this post is discussing.

In fact the more you read your nonsense the more laughable it becomes. Do you consider Critchley, the man who got us promoted to the Championship and then more than comfortably survived in it, to be a worse manager than our last two managers in Appleton and McCarthy and then the one before him in Grayson? I'd suggests that statistics show you are talking utter garbage but as most on here know, you've been doing that for a good while now. Nowt true in what you say at all and you have the nerve to call yourself a "true" fan. That's one who says he is unlikely to renew his season ticket. "True" fans support the team not the manager.

Stand up when you post, then the sound won't be so muffled

I believe his backroom staff had a lot to do with his last success with us ,but we will see.

No impact on a managerial credentials . I think that when you commit to something for 4 years ,then change your mind , shows indecision , can't be trusted and lack of morals . So if that doesn't have any impact on his managerial credentials what does ?To top this he sneaked away like a coward.

Right. So it was the backroom staff responsible for the failure at Villa and the backroom staff responsible for the success here?

They certainly had a part to play but what manager doesn't look to their back room to bounce ideas off...

When Critch first came in he had Calderwood, he left and moved on to Northampton - He then brought in McCall who moved on to Sheff Utd and without an experienced head behind him performances dipped and were very much below the standard we were used to at that time.

Just because he fist pumps and takes the credit does not mean it was all down to him and it reads as though you agree with me with the above sentence.

There you go again. Completely twisting things to suit your odd agenda. So by fist pumping that was him taking all the credit? He was celebrating with the fans ffs. Not only that it was the north stand that usually initiated it.
Take it you said the same about Billy Ayre?

Did anyone notice Calderwood and Garrity fist pumping. No ,why because they did a good job behind the scenes and never got seen . Fist pumping does not make a good manager . A good manager has a team behind him and he just betrays the ones in tangerine.

i have to read what you post and there's no doubt you're an intellectual pygmy. And you ain't a "true" Blackpool fan either. As well as being a nob you could be a nobber.

It takes one to know one , but to get to pygmy standards you must have cheated your exams.

As a person he betrayed us in my eyes ,but as a manager I see no positives at all and I fear for us.

You're taking it too personally, his "betrayal" as you put it wasn't because he had an agenda against the club he saw it as a route to progress his professional career.

It seems you're taking this personally which is blinkering you from what he can bring back to the club in a professional capacity... Rather than feeling so butthurt over it, how about listening to what he's come out and said? His address to the fans, his apology for the manner he went about it. Why not draw the line in the sand, move on like a grown up and support the guy?

Either that or you're gonna be miserable for a while since he's signed a 4-year deal... 😅

The betrayal is more how he left rather then because he left ,but that does not matter . I am negative about him because the only place that he has been a success was here and I put that down to Calderwood and Garrity . His name may have been on the managers office ,but was it his ability or someone else's that got the team getting results. I believe you have all been fooled. I also still hope I am wrong about him.

Yep, brilliant stuff, everyone fooled but you. You really aren't a "true" Blackpool fan are you? You're a fraud who is making excuses so he doesn't have to get a season ticket. Funny how not long back how you were questioning people about not getting a season ticket if we were to be relegated and here you are making your excuse. Pitiful.

Are you the same bloke as 'Pete'? Surely there can't be two thickos on here who struggle to place punctuation in the right place. A bit suspect if you ask me, I reckon you are a multi-username wind-up merchant who wasn't paying attention at school....and it shows.

Not being great at English does not mean my facts aren't correct . Personality is probably the most important thing in man management and there is a lack of it with Critchley ,and there is no such word as thickos if we are correcting each other.

I agree about personality being important in football management and that NC seems lacks it, at least in interviews pre and post match and I do wonder if he’s Ben over promoted. Managers are these days looking after wealthy individuals, with big egos and need a strong hand, someone they respect. He’s a good coach, but is he a good manager? I hope he is for our sake.

1) not the manager
2) not the manager
3) QPR had lost something like 5 from 6 when he took over and were already in free fall, he struggled to stem that with the players he was given and so did the manager after him.

In short don’t worry be happy

Perhaps you need to get out a bit more. If that's all you've got to worry about
