Manager happy with preparations ahead of tomorrow

854

Half the battle when it comes to PR is not to score an own goal, which Neil Lennon managed to do in his pre-match press conference today when asked about the local ‘tradition’ of ritualistic animal slaughter before the game.  “You have to respect the traditions in Kazakhstan, they have a different culture.  We have our traditions.

“Our scouts watched Shakhter’s game against Astana on Friday.  We know the played a weakened team.

“We arrived early to adapt to the weather condition.  The journey went well.

“Tomorrow we play against a strong team.  It’s important to get a good result in the first game to increase our chances of reaching the Champions League group stage.”

Really looking forward to this one now.

    He best be careful they don’t shoot the messenger.

     

     

    Seems to be their default to bad news-ad homonym and WATP.

     

     

    I sincerely hope this never changes.

    I’m on the “Two Day Diet” and this is one of my diet days.

     

     

    Anyone know of a low calorie 14% proof red wine under a fiver?

     

     

    That’ll sort it.

    Homonym?

     

     

    Hominen.

     

     

    Blinking phone. How do you set the language to Latin?

  4. So Chuckles punishment is to sell his shares 4 months early and make a quick exit before the bottom falls out.

     

     

    Chuck has played this mob like a fiddle.

    So Challs has agreed to sell his shareholding in sevco.

     

     

    Was he not locked in til later this year? Has that condition been voided by today’s departure?

     

     

    Is this all a choreographed row to allow him to take his profits?

     

    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

     

    For a self confessed devious man I think choreography fits the scene precisely.

     

     

    Somebody has made him an offer he cannot refuse for a business that is unsustainable. Whoever takes over makes it sustainable by either selling assets for reletting or cut backs on wages.

     

     

    Given that the ridiculous wages being paid could be cut back without impacting on their promotion prospects that would look the most likely course of action. However the mindset at play seems incapable of grasping the spend only what you earn concept (having not been exposed to it for more than ten years)so who knows what will happen next and as long as they are not in the same division as us who cares? Its when they return, if to the same governing environment as at present that concerns me.

     

     

    It will make honest mistakes look like the good old days when you thought refs were at it but could not prove it. By then we will know they are at it but can do nothing about it because we failed to act when we had the power.

  13. SSN Italia insisting Spurs and Real Madrid have reached agreement on the Gareth Bale saga.

     

     

    €109 million/£93 million fee agreed.

     

     

    Mental!

     

     

    HH!!

  14. More transfer rumours.

     

     

    Casillas to Man Utd, De Gea to Barca.

     

     

    Who cares?!

     

     

    C’mon the Hoops!

     

     

    HH!!
