Please, on this day, grant me this one piece of long winded half pissed happy clappery.
Gareth:
Promotion specialist ✅
Low budget experienced ✅
Got a tune out of a demoralised / belligerent QPR squad ✅
Obviously two wins on the bounce helps, but I genuinely think he is more than a pair of cowboy boots.
He’s capable, if the board and the fans let him, of getting this club on course for a Luton / Millwall type revival.
I have to admit I was all for the Warburtons, Critchleys, Beales, Dozzells, Amos’s, Carrolls, and Gosses at the time they signed but now I really think the route to salvation lies in dogged football league personalities, albeit those we make ourselves and those who are young and hungry enough.
This is Gareth’s bread and butter.
Recent history tells us that our best spells come when we embrace the football league pool talent / mentality and eschew premier league acadamiëkïndër.
Some may get sold in the summer, bur we already have a hard core of Dickie, Dunne, Kakay, Field, and Dykes who’ve all got their faults, aren’t in most cases technically the best, but give a fck and have 100+ football league games under their belts.
The spirit of Holloway and Warnock lives on.
In Wild Thing We Trust.

My main concern is that all the rhetoric from him seems to be that we should be happy to be in this league, and I feel that it is a self fulfilling prophecy that will eventually lead to L1.
We are not Man City but we also arnt Wigan....top six should be a reasonable aim every year and we need to keep up that expectation.
On top of that, he did what was necessary, but I am not sure I can sit through 18% possession every week.
I would thank GA for keeping us up and replace him with either Warbs (I am big fan) or someone more aligned to the way we want to play going forward. |  |

Yep - its a positive, happy, jocular place for me at the moment - and it should be, up to 5pm next Monday.
But then I think about Clive's so-apt quote about 'selling everything that isn't bolted down' and you realise this is sadly accurate not hyperbole.
The intensity of the storm right in front of us this summer is growing and real - its not quite 'Ollie 2001' (IMHO) but probably not far off, hence an Ollie-type galvanising figure is what the doctor ordered.
And we certainly have that. Tough days ahead - but GA is bang up for it. |  | | |

I thoufht I had seen some of the worse shitehousery last season when 3 of Bournemouth's defenders all went down in the box holding their heads. Each of those 3 were in different areas of their own penalty box after our attack.
Yesterday I think 4 of ours went down holding their heads in our box even though it was amongst a huge Grand National type tumble and Stoke had a half arsed Ben Pearson in their team whose only major contribution was to slide off the pitch and into the advertising hoardings.
WE got the job done by fair and slightly unfair means.
I trust GA to take us forward and try and build a 'dynasty' but hope we dont become a vile and despised club for dark arts. |
Thought Pearson was very good, looked like his every pass was accurate, a few were also clever, and one early on through the penalty area opened us completely. | | | |

It's fine winning games with those stats and style of football but when we don't win, it will get very nasty very quickly. | | | |
