Flynn....

Re: Flynn....

Tell me how Flynn cost Newport the playoff finals?

I have no idea. I don't watch Newport. He may have been really unlucky but factually speaking, he was manager of two finals and he lost two finals.

The final v Morecambe is one of the worst football games ive seen in the last 20 years.

Newport garbage. Morecambe well behond that. Newport had a youngish winger causing plenty of problems. He got subbed. Flynns brilliant 41 year old signing though was part of his answer to breaking down a sh!t side.

He shouldnt be near the betting let alone 2nd fav.

Have to admit, I didn't watch it, but weren't they also on the wrong end of two dreadful refereeing decisions?

Will be out next manager.��

Flynn is favourite?

They had a clear penalty denied.

Theirs if I remember was outside the box.

If you cant score in 120 minutes against garbage like Morecambe though you dont deserve promotion. Both sides were utter shite.

Re: Flynn....

I can't say i know much regarding Flynn or Newport but going from what i've been told by Newport fans i have spoken to he's done well under tough circumstances

What cash has Flynn had to spend at Newport? Does he play hoof ball or encourage it to be passed on the floor?

Fair enough.

Re: Flynn....

Earlier today the bookies had Flynn, Jody Morris and Michael Beale at 4/1.

This evening Flynn is 1/2.

Either someone has had a massive bet on Flynn or an announcement is imminent 🤔

Surely watching just the one match, and on TV at that, you can't make a fair call on the way Flynn's Newport sides play. Have you seen them play live? I must have been to about 20 or so matches over the years and they've played some really good football. I get you don't want him but are you really being objective?

Stan asked if his sides play hoofball. I've never seen them play that way. Stan also made the point about the players he's had to work with and the budget. That's valid too, especially being a league 2 side.

I don't know whether he'll cut it with us but I do know I'd prefer him over Harris or McCarthy. I just think if he does get selected, then get behind him. It's like we're on self-destruct as Cardiff fans sometimes. Nothing is good enough and no-one is good enough.

What, for sure, isn't good enough, is eight successive defeats with another one on the cards tomorrow.

I'm not having a go nor am I championing Flynn, but surely we need to look at where we are in the table and that's been as a result of Warnock, Harris & McCarthy. It's not Mike Flynn's fault is it?

Obviously the last question in my post was rhetorical and tongue-in-cheek, just in case anyone's confused!

No its not Flynns fault.

I just despair when I see a manager who has just left a L2 club in mid table as 1/2 fav.

If he wasnt at Newport he wouldnt be anywhere near the betting.

Id be seriously pissed off if we appointed Flynn but would hope he could prove me wrong.

Re: Flynn....

Flynn seems to get mentioned purely because he managed a club nearby to us. It is bizarre. They had a couple of good cup games under him but ultimately lost two play off finals and didn't progress to the league below us.

It's really odd.

He's not my first choice but he will get my full support for a season or two.. I don't know much about him but i feel he's getting judged because he was at lowly Newport.
In my opinion it doesn't make him a good or a bad choice for us only time will tell us that.

I feel your despair, I really do. Tuerto mentioned the other day in thread something which resonated with me and it was 'play the ball not the man'. I feel the board is the ball and any manager they appoint is (obviously) the man. I mentioned in another thread about my feelings re. selecting any manager by our board.

But yeah, despair is a good word re. CCFC at the moment. Let's hope we can get something tomorrow because we could all do with a lift!
