Villa left back Joe Bennett to sign on free transfer

IMO, most of the posters you allude to simply wanted (and still want) to see competent, exciting, competitive football. That's all.
If it also brings league success - great.
These posters have said as much on here - consistently.

If you - yourself - were a serious poster, then it would be doubtful that there would be another poster on this board as apparently divorced from reality.

However, as you are a known full time WUM and have been since you posted as CrazyHorse (and whatever daft WUM personas before that), I cannot comprehend why anybody takes you seriously!

Akin to 'chris' without the smileys or the err.. 'humour', and ... sporting a daft, smug-mug Slade avatar

Give it up for goodness sake. It's pointless!

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
Again you have failed to contribute to the thread.
Give up you old fart.

They say the truth hurts and that's why some posters get abusive. Last season we had a perfectly good manager who took us close to the play-offs but that was not good enough for people like TOBW, gringo and countless others who think we have a divine right to be successful. They moaned about every part of Slades management, now it's come back to bite them on the arse they don't like it.

I thought Paul/Bob and 'countless others' offered a very fair assessment of Slade's tenure. They didn't moan about every part of his management, and in fact went out of their way to give him credit for the good things he did. However, they didn't hold back in criticising his limitations, failures and blind-spots. And how is 'it' biting anyone on the arse - whatever 'it' is?

What on earth does that middle bit mean ?

We really do have some crap wind up merchants on here these days.

Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn

- 20 years in the bottom two leagues but only one player sought after, one player that any fool could have identified based on his headline and at no point looked like he was a good fit for us.
- a massive struggle to win two games in a row, though we did have 7 points from 9 more often than the media wished to say
- massive reluctance to give youth a chance
- despite his claims that he played variations of 4-4-2 it was one-paced and fairly rigid every game
- Kenwynne Jones played despite not scoring for 2 months
- dull and defeatist in interactions with fans and media
- ultimately stabalised us while being fairly successful. Did easily enough to walk into a lower championship role but strengths in no way suited a director of football role.

Where did you think it was going? Slade did well but he didn't have much left to offer us.

Hasn't played much football in the last 2 seasons by the looks of it.

Slade played him 10 times.
Trollope has played him 4 times and is going to replace him with Bennett.
So my post you decided to have a go at is correct. Do you agree?

Slade did not play him 10 times but don't let the facts get in the way.
