WE are the one & only Wanderers

Where fellow sufferers gather to share the pain, longing and unrequited transfer requests that make being a Wanderer what it is...

No ... it'll be right. They've never taken to him.

He has had a turn-around aafter an awful start but he's far from popular.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

Or maybe he inherited a shambles. I don't really know much about his managerial pedigree, but he's not had much of a chance to sort out what was an obvious shambles. Getting deja vu here...

Dougie inherited a total omnishambles. The new incumbent's job for a start is to put out the fires. It DOES take time though.

Oddly that's why I knew Freedman would eventually come good. There was no dead-cat bounce. He was implimenting proper wholesale improvements, not least to fitness, formation and tactics. They take time to cacth on. They were 3 things Coyle seemed to ignore almost entirely.

...God I hope we go up this season, I think we'll be absolutely fine in the Prem. Though it would be quite nice to walk a 2nd season in the Championship.

Gee, do you really think we'd do that JB? Really? Cos I don't. No such thing.

Aye, but that was a happening, not a prediction. Taking anything for granted in football is a big mistake, as in us this season. We were going to sail it....

Ah but I never said we'd sail this season. (At least I'm sure I didn't.)

I DO remember saying when we went down, that conceding on average 2 goals a game would get you relegated from any league you care to mention. We certainly continued in that manner under Coyle.

Promotion/Domed/Another year in the wilderness- I'm just happy there seems to be some basics of tactics, organisation and the like, back in the club. Those simple things can make a reasonable squad start going places.


But obviously, we haven't even a chance of the playoffs. Like, pshaw.
