36 years ago actually.
Its entirely irrelevant.
36 years ago we didnt have the internet, mobile phones or satellite broadcasting.
But we do today.
Six Managers since 2017:- Karanka / Monk / Pulis / Woodgate / Warnock / Wilder / ?
Should tell us something?
Does anyone else get sick of the same overture being played like an old record - every time we revert to type - in comes a "breath of fresh air" - which quickly turns to acrid smoke.
"Fresh ideas" "Young Manager" "Motivate the players" "We are a big club" "We need get back to where we belong...(?!!)" "We need a sustainable financial model" "Build an attacking side" "Rely on a blend of youth and experience"........blah, blah, flippin blah.
Perhaps "Bullship baffles brains" is nearer the mark.
I couldnt care less who does what where or when - but it would be great if we could have less Managers a season than we do those screen-printed rags they call Boro Shirts - and charge a ridiculous price for.
How long will the next one last?
