While Owers is taking the flak Harrop is rubbing his hands together. He's the **** that appointed him, he's the **** that persisted with him when it became obvious to some of us that he wasn't the answer and he's the **** that will take over team affairs if Owers does go.
Harrop is to blame!!
Surprised you stopped at ****. Surely Fat **** is more appropriate.
Owers does have to go. But does everyone remember what happened last year when we got rid of Nicholson? We waited weeks for us to appoint this clown, so how many weeks are we going to have to wait for the next one? Believe me, there will be no rush for us to get a new manager if Owers does go.
Of course there isn't. It'll be the same old excuses trotted out all season long while we slip further and further away from even the play-offs. Some will say give him time, he knows how to set a team up, he has experience blah blah. The simple truth is he's **** clueless. He might have been a top pro in his time but that's a whole world away from this shit league.

I thought Harrop had chosen Graham Westley for the job but was over ruled by Osbourne. Owers was Osbourne's choice.
Why do I think that? It's what you posted at the time.
Trained with Reidy as a young lad over at a Brazilian Futsal school when I was younger. Good local lad with the foundations of a good player, just isn’t performing under our useless manager. GO out.

Agreed, said last season his best position was through the middle, when he got a short spell in that position he scored 4 goals. For me, if you’re not good enough to get in the team, in your preferred, best position, then you’re not good enough to be in the team.
Jamie Reid isn't the only one not performing under Owers. In fact I cant think of a single player since Owers took over who has improved. Many take a backward step.
Shouldn't we be developing players and making improvements??

Westley ruled himself out with his requirements and Osborne did prefer the cheaper option in Owers but Harrop as Genera Manager is the one who identified him as a target so therefore is the one who appointed him.
As for Owers. I don't know Harrop personally, but know him well enough by sight not to be afraid to approach the man, have your banners, however, if you want to protest against Owers, please not while the game is on. I would rather not hide behind a banner though, I will make my own feelings known to Harrop himself when I see him next, suggest we all do that, being direct works a lot better.
Can't agree more. Protesting against the manager during the game will just hand any advantage to the opposition. Its about time Harrop took some flak though.
