I wish he'd come back here SO SO SO much.
I know.
Maybe he'll win league cup in Scotland and prove owners how wrong they were. Then they are sure to bring him back.
No, he won't be back here mate. You just said that a minute ago.
I just wish it didn't have to be this way.
We made a mistake and it hurt when I saw us hand the carling cup to U***d, it hurt when we crashed out of the fA Cup to Stoke and to be honest it hurts nearly everytime I watch the players full of fear trying to stumble through each game.
But he won't be back... alas
I know. It hurt almost as much as crashing out of FA Cup by Nottingham Forest and League Cup by Brighton. Not half as much as finishing 10th with a team that previous season had finished 9th and had 125m worth of additions though. That REALLY hurt.

But all failed in comparison to be beaten by the scum with all that money and an extra couple of months gelling.
Carry on!

Whereas we previously had such brilliant record against rags under Hughes. What was that? Three losses? That's prettty good by anyone's standards. In fact, who was the last manager that did this well against rags?

This well?
We were beating the rags barely at half time in a two legged game.
You got TERRIBLY excited about that afterwards I recall.... and you got stuck into me for not being too happy about it at all if I recall...

I meant Mark's sterling record against his former club, you know the one he hates with passion as any other Blue.

Oh you're one of those people that think he had us lose to them on purpose?!
Ah hahahahahahahahahaha
You're obsessed! I was only kidding by the way, I don't wish he'd come back - in fact I've never wished for any manager to come back.
Onwards and upwards, its just that you still get so wound up by the mention of his name ;)

Hi Garry,I just wanted to shake your hand and ask you a question.I go to COMS as mucha as possible but sometimes I cannot leave the house as Sophie.....sorry..Sophie is my Cat...... needs a carer when Im away and sometimes I cannot find one.
My question is ; Is it possible to bring Sophie to matches at COMS in her kitten box and can she come in for free?

Maybe shrewd move on his part but not our part. Probably got him the boot as well, showing the owners that he didn't think he had it in him to reach targets OWNERS set.

No, fans/owners panicking got him the boot and the "trajectory of points" looks pretty much the same, so its a shame.
Oh well, he ain't coming back... :))

Surely you can't be having a pop at our wonderful owners? No, I refuse to believe it.
