The Les and Jimmy appreciation thread

We will not improve or progress while Hasslebank is in charge,a year on and the football is even probably worse than last season. Jfh is too tactically inept and to stubborn to learn. All this that the team is jogging is a complete load of bowlarks.

What because success isn't happening fast enough? It's gonna take time, but only if fans give him that time. We aren't gonna be improving overnight and, quite frankly, it's about time we stopped with the quick fixes and went for a slower building process.

If we start attacking too much, no-one will be able to keep up with your Top Scorers list

Would be nice to be successful but tbh I just want to see us to actually go out and try to attack and win a game. Hasslebaink hasn't shown an iota of this n cannot see it changing..blokes clueless

That's one way of playing football and not playing that way doesn't make you clueless.

It does when team selections are baffling and when he cannot think on his feet to change a game at all and always reacts to late

Hasslebaink must of got his off a cereal box,carlsberg was a bit to tough for him to pass.

I will give Les and the club cred for having invested in a better scouting network.

There is no evidence that a slower building process would give us success. Or that we would be successful under JFH. It's just your theory.

It's on another thread, but the point is the club and management are explaining what's going on, and it's going to take time.

We all know things are going to take time, but not all have patience...

It's not the managers fault if the players are slow learners.

That's true.

That is a fair point. I'd like to think that given time and tweaks here and there to a squad then something will click eventually due to consistency and familiarity rather than it all go south with quick wholesale changes.

I don't believe in long term planning, that's yesterday's policy IMO. Particularly in football where players come and go. It's also a myth that young players will linearly improve with age. I think we should combine some sort of consistency and carpe diem kind of strategies.
