Re: Bellamy

Craig is off work with depression

He needs time to recuperate

It’s a non starter

a laughing stock could be the cure for depression.

Re: Bellamy

What credentials or skills has Bellamy got to be a good DOF?

None that I am aware of but everyone has to start somewhere.

Cannot see the club having a DOF so just a thought.

Re: Bellamy

The support for Bellamy is based on him talking well about football (and he does) and the fact that he was born here and played for us. It's mostly anecdotal, but I wouldn't fancy him at the club in any capacity. He doesn't come across as patient, calm or understanding. People may think that he's the future but I disagree. His attitude comes across as old school, back when managers would shun players who were not what they wanted them to be.

Without any real evidence to say so, I'd say that he could be a bit of a bully.

I know that he had difficult times as a young player, but that it doesn't always mean that just because he came out the other side, it makes him a stronger person, sometimes, trauma can have an adverse effect on a person's character.

I hope he gets well soon

In my opinion there is no doubt that there is an element of parochialism in people wanting Bellamy. Personally I’m aware of the perceived/alleged baggage, but even with that I’d be more than happy with us giving him the opportunity (christ Joey Barton has landed 2 jobs 😱 )

The thing I crave most is a change in style… and at this stage I honestly don’t care if we go down to achieve it. I think Bellamy is a cast iron guarantee to do that (probably some of the other names too).

Many of us were correct wkth our early assessment of McCarthy… god knows there was enough evidence, so anything similar would be an unmitigated disaster… No one really knows how Bellamy would work out (and call me parochial 🙂)but I’d rather have his football brain on it than some tried and tested no hoper.

Fair assessment, and good point about Joey Barton, I've even used it myself! Maybe it's because of Bellamy's previous association with the club that I'm a bit negative about him, but truth is, none of us really know what would happen with him at the helm. One thing is certain, it certainly wouldn't be like the utter dross we've witnessed over the past couple of years or more.

I'm at a supporting point where I'm prepared to take a hit in order to improve. Warnock's legacy has caused real damage in my opinion, with the board thinking that we could replicate what he did in the promotion season, and somehow, the club has put themselves in that position.

I sti think that the club will go down the tried and tested route.

Re: Bellamy

Those two on the side today , McCarthy & Warnock reminded me of Statler & Warldorf, f*ckin* out of date fossils.[/QUOTE]

Statler & Warldorf were funny and make me laugh. Warnockball nor MCCarthy's shite idea of football never have and never will

Re: Bellamy

lets go for it, we have very little to lose, the players we have appear to need a kick up the arse, any new manager that comes in is going to have to get them going again

you can be sure that Bellars will not accept anything less than 100% and thats got to be a start
