It had run its race more than a week ago. The thread should be renamed "Post your own opinion here if you want to see it torn to shreds by somebody else's own opinions, no matter how biased or manic they may be".

We should have just kept Sheldon as coach and got all our real problem areas right ... and that is: recruiting and development.

That's the only thing that has held us back over the years.

The sooner our club realises this, the better.

Changing coaches is just a knee-jerk reaction ...which never addresses the underlying and real problems.

... the coach is just the little cherry on top, we need to look at the big picture ... take a more holistic and objective view.
What was wrong with Sheldon, anyway?

He was a control freak and apparently he borrowed money from one of the boot studders

It is well known that Boot Studders are persons of ample independent means; and anyway Simon Goodwin was picking up discarded betting tickets not so long ago and he has done fine.

Bring back Kenny to give the one on one honesty sessions. Brief him on new concussion protocols first of course.

Or alternatively start a new thread titled:

“Only post here if your opinion is congruent with others, any opinions to the contrary to “popular opinion” need to be approved by Trevor??”

I asked here about KS once and I was reminded that it was the Hudson-Sheldon thang that got on people’s nerves.

No. You need help. Seriously. Normal people have lives, not obsessions with blokes that coached their football club 16 years ago.

It’s obvious isn’t it?
Your opinion is anyone who posts something on this thread that YOU don’t like is manic or obsessed just like you’re doing now by following me around Trev?
It ain’t hard ...
It’s a footy forum .....why don’t you try and muster up a football opinion of your own...you might find it liberating!!

ooh, not much happening in football at the moment, little spotfires breaking out on here in numerous threads, lucky we have a moderator. :lol: :lol:


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

It was the Hudson/Sheldon thing that taught Stewie Leowe how to become an Uber reliable set shot from inside 40m. Not a bad outcome alone
