Re: Come on. Hands up. Whos willing to admit they were wrong

Hadn't he only really had two jobs as well? He'd been employed by Southampton but his arrest really got in the way of that. The appointment of Jones is more similar to Mackay & Trollope than Warnock & McCarthy

Jones had had over 400 games by the time he got to us, and 400 extremely successful ones. Had a 48% win rate at Stockport, that's absolutely phenomenal.

Re: Come on. Hands up. Whos willing to admit they were wrong

about Mick McCarthy? I certainly am.

I have been pleasantly surprised, I thought we were going to get Warnock Ball on steroids when we appointed Big Mick, especially as we needed to stop the rot. I thought we would get safety first, defensive football, isolated lone striker and play with a draw first, hope to nick a winner from a set piece mentality which we saw under Warnock and the way Mick set up his Ipswich team last time he managed in this division.

However, the change of shape with wing backs and playing the wingers inside behind the striker has worked a treat so far. Yes we still rely on set pieces to a certain to a degree but its one of our strengths so why not? but we have also scored some lovely goals from open play.

I was dreading the thought of Mick doing well enough to get a longer deal but now I think jts a no brainer.

Well done Mick and TC.:ayatollah:

No he's shit, stick to knitting :hehe:

No he's shit, stick to knitting :hehe:

That was the honeymoon period. :hehe:

How was I to know he would revert to type as soon as he got a new deal. :hehe:

At least with Bulut we know we are getting shite football from the start. :shrug:

Re: Come on. Hands up. Whos willing to admit they were wrong

Maybe Bulut's replacement could change of shape with wing backs and playing the wingers inside behind the striker has worked a treat so far. Yes we still rely on set pieces to a certain to a degree but its one of our strengths so why not? but we have also scored some lovely goals from open play and take us down the Leagues :hehe:

Leave it to the grown ups mate, if you think Mad Mick is the answer :thumbup:

I couldn't believe they gave him a contract. The WORST football I have ever watched , to the point I stopped watching Cardiff.
Those moaning about Bulut have short memories or perhaps its a hangover from Mad Mick .
Buluts sides play good football occasionally, lack heart when they go one down ,sometimes lack heart from the beginning.

Good find , JR Hartley the football guru...

Re: Come on. Hands up. Whos willing to admit they were wrong

Ive just done some research and this was posted after we had just beaten Bournemouth away 2-1, our 6th win on the spin and 8th game unbeaten under Mick (Mick drew his first two) whilst scoring 15 goals in those 6 wins.

Thats my defence anyway :hehe:

And that's the point. At the time our results and performances were very impressive. I doubt there was a City fan who, at that time, was sceptical of McCarthy. Harris didn't do too bad a job, but 1 win in 8 saw him get the boot. McCarthy turned that around, got us into the playoff positions, which we subsequently squandered, but still beat the Jacks.

The following season saw us in 6th after 4 games before McCarthy wend doolally and we lost 9 of the next 10, including a club record 8 defeats on the spin.

You can only say what you see at the time. I bet many a City fan would have happily sucked off Bulut after we'd beaten the Jacks.

Never wanted Mick in the first place and certainly didn't agree with the contract he was given - felt we should have said goodbye and started again

As for the jacks result under McCarthy - people have been criticising our lucky wins under bulut - that's was as bulut like away win as you are likely to see
