Let's face it, he is, was and always will be a tosser.

Agreed.
I cannot understand for the life of me why anyone would defend the one person who, without thought or apology, nearly destroyed the club I have supported all my life.

[Tombwfc]

Living up to your name there with that. He didn't nearly destroy anything. He came in, did the job he was employed for before eventually being found incapable of taking us on further (though the club's history would suggest that 13th in the top division is a good effort).

It's not "defending someone" because I refuse to call someone I don't know abusive names.

it's called living a life with shades of grey - where most things are neither "black" nor "white" - neither "the best" nor "the worst" - neither "worthy of a knighthood" nor "deserving a painful death"...

such a world of ultimate extremes would be a pretty crap place to live...

Bah - This is the worst post ever*

*Or could be the best depending on your viewpoint.

It's definitely one or the other.

I'm surprised Megson wasn't awarded the LBE (Laziest Bast**d in England) for services to lardarseiness in the New Year's Honours list

Sammy Lee's had a job for the past twelve months.

Saying that, though, £150k per month for gardening v £10/20k per month working for a Championship/League One, would you lot be working?

But, once again, kudos to the fact he signed most of the stars at present. But his man management skills and tactical nous were awful even by standards I've been ivolved in, and so was glad to see the back of him since the start of his final season.

Tottenham, a club of rich Jewish heritage

Funny, when I think of "rich Jewish heritage" I think of something like Spain in the Middle Ages, rather than a bunch of Gentiles calling themselves "Yids," but whatever.

Well, he took the job of Liverpool assistant job six months after he got sacked, but if you want to take things personally for the sake of it.....

I'm absolutely twatted, but I still can't hate SL like I can Voldemort. Mostly because SL was just shit.

Wankstain was not only shit, but a bellend with it.

Gardening leave now over.

I know this is a forum where different opinions are aired. I gave my view, based upon him being the most divisive person to have ever managed BWFC. We now know that not only were the fans at each others throats, but a good section of the squad were demotivated/p*ssed-off to the degree that we could have been relegated had he stayed. That would have destroyed the club as a going concern.

I did not indulge in calling him names. Nor did I, in the words of our resident eclesiastical expert, go to the extremes suggested of wishing him to be lynched by the KKK for molesting our lovely tea ladies.

[bettyrasta]

He (Megson) told Fanhouse UK: "The gardening leave is now finished and it's been a frustrating year. I've turned down three jobs in that time to come back into work.

"But it's now over and I would like to get back into management as soon as possible...."

Maybe would have been less frustrating if he'd had a bit of pride and taken one of the jobs.
