Neil McDonald Returns

[WalneyOne]

Having a larger number means nothing.

It's the quality that matters.

Sadly we're lacking in that department.

If I remember rightly though other than a 4-0 win against Forest Green, I don't recall our results really changing too much under Brown and MacDonald at the time. I thought under Cooper we looked good enough to stay up and nothing really changed.
Thank god Brown never stayed on permanently as the owners wanted him but couldn't agree and we ended up with Wild instead.

Your memory is fairly correct: results worsened, in fact, but his two wins and a draw were enough to leave us four points (and a significantly better GD) from the drop which is what sticks in the memory. rather than the six defeats. (By comparison, the previous nine games included only one win and five draws.)

Happily, we are not in North Korea and can both check and report such facts.

Interesting question to ask to Pedro, does he do this on purpose ? Pedro is a pain in the backside every point or remark he makes is negative l have yet to see anything positive from the man. One thing is certain you wouldn't hire him as a motivation coach, you would have them all jumping off Walney bridge!!

Without wanting to come across as the "olbarrafancumbak show" we are all guilty of being negative sometimes. Football hurts when things don't go out way and we see it daily on every forum across the land!

Maybe I shouldn't have called Pedro out, my point is that negativity is bad..

It's hard to please everyone, it's hard to win every game, it's hard to positive when we see millions being spent on stadiums, players, facilities etc etc

What we have imo is something special, we have a club that is so down to earth and almost personal, something other clubs don't have!

We have volunteers that prop the place up, we are out on. A limb geographically, we don't have millions.. what we do have is very unique!

It does [SwearFilter] me off sometimes that some, myself included are too critical, the passion boils over but yeh, I would rather look for the good than focus on the bad.. is that wrong? Who knows..

A winning mentality can not be bought, a team that wants to give 110© can't be bought.. it's down to us all as players, owners and fans to go forward as one or you can't go forward at all.

You'd definitely make a decent psychologist olbarrafancumbak. Perhaps a role for you at the club?

Hmm.

But would that be at high tide or low tide?

You only hear negative things when there is something negative to say.
That Newport game should have been a win on paper problem is it's played on grass .
Look at McDonalds record he always worked with experience Managers .

Rob Kelly chose not to stay but you look at his achievements more experience than the three we have all out together.
Only thing positive is Rob Kelly's team won 3 -0 at Blackpool.
The positives espoused when there are none remind me of the Brexiteers talking about success when there are none.
By failing to prepare you are preparing to fail.
