I remember things being especially bad under Wombat. His stats were P34 W9 D9 L16 W26.5% PPG 1.06, which aren’t nearly as bad in comparison.

Wow. He’s keeping some special company there.Originally Posted by upthemaggies
The bros have got this one wrong. When LW left we needed more of an impact manager to see the season through and galvanise the players whilst we spread the net out for someone to fit the philosophy long term. We needed some experience and charisma, instead we got a seemingly nice bloke who can probably coach but does not at all come over as much of a great leader and communicator.
He does speak sense in his interviews but they are so mundane and irritating that I can’t bear more than a few minutes. Imagine listening to it all week. Now we’re stuck, what do the owners do? We’ve a squad with players clearly not up to scratch, many with another year on their contracts, and a manager out of his depth.
The owners will probably not pull the trigger just yet but will be re-evaluating their decisions and searching for possible replacements if the next three to four games show no improvement.

He just won't have the respect from the more 'seasoned' pros. He's not very tall either, which even more makes it difficult for him. Don't get me wrong and paraphrase what I'm saying that you have to be a giant to be a good manager, but everytime I see SM interviewed, it's as though he is the Wealdstone Raider's slightly bigger brother.

HaHa, That's a funny post. He's not very tall! Maybe radar have a maximum height for all recruits.
If he was going to play in central defense, OK height matters, but come on.
Jose Mourinho is 5' 9", and he's won a few pots.
Give SM two good central defenders and a goalkeeper, and then let's see what he can do.
