Gary O'Saunders
Wasn't that their 2nd string too you clown?

I can see some of that half decent squad being sold in Jan e.g. neto and if there are incomings, they will be on a budget once again. A new coach will want assurances and even if they're given, why would he trust a word they say based on their track record. I'll hold my ground that they have backed themselves into an impossible position.I don't agree with that actually. We've got a half decent squad, probably money for Jan, decent set up, and a good place to make your mark. There are issues higher up but that's not uncommon.
Leave him in charge for long enough we will be in league two as that’s about his standardI wonder if he will still be blaming Lopetegui when were in the championship next season, because that's where he will take us.
The man is delusional. That 'group of individuals' as O'Neill describes it achieved ~1.3 PPG under the previous regime. O'Neill can only dream of the "team collective" that ground out clean sheet win after clean sheet win at home.I hate people who deflect blame, he’s a spineless coward, too many people like this today, you mess up you accept it and try and put it right
"To stick with the group," O'Neil said when asked for his message to supporters.
"We are six weeks in, with a game every five or six days, to a process. There is no magic wand.
"I can guarantee you, when I arrived the place was not running perfectly and ready to go into a Premier League season. There are a lot of things that need fixing.
"I sit here and answer the questions and I'm willing to take responsibility, but the facts are you need some time to put things in place.
"That did not look like a team that I've worked with for very long, which it isn't.
"Do I accept that we need to get results? Of course. Do I want the fans to enjoy every game we play and come away supporting the players? Of course.
"I'm going to work tirelessly to make sure we get it there and we will get it there, but the transfer window is closed and we need to get the maximum out of the group."
When asked what needs fixing at the club, O'Neil added: "When I arrived, the culture of the club needed a shift.
"Some of it needed to move into more togetherness and the way they went about things was very individual-focused and there wasn't a lot of structure to what they did.
"There's a big list of things that need fixing. I understand it's my responsibility.
"People will say 'oh they did fine last year', but the truth is they got 41 points last year and we made an £80million profit on players in the summer. We're £80million short of where we were last year.
"I played that Wolves side when I was manager or Bournemouth, fairly late on in the season, and I know exactly where it was and exactly what it could or couldn't do.
"We need to move it from that, in a more difficult situation now than the club was then.
"They are the facts of the job and I understood that when I took it and I understand it now.
"Every weekend is not going to be rosy, we're going to suffer for some tough weekends and we're going to need to crack on and go again."
If he is as bad as some mixers are saying surely the players would want rid or want out, what better way than to criticize the manager, no sign of that
Let's see how many and who want out in January....If he is as bad as some mixers are saying surely the players would want rid or want out, what better way than to criticize the manager, no sign of that
"I thought the lads were incredible, the lads that started, the lads that came off the bench. We tried to overload in the middle if we could, creating a box with four-vs-three, a game plan similar to what I've always done.
"It wasn't me that created the performance, though, it was the group of players that showed some real quality but, unfortunately, we found a way to not put the ball in the net, despite having 23 shots, then you have my booking at the end for shouting for a penalty. But yeah, we deserved to get something out of the game."
Been like that since day one…. So no change there in himI hate people who deflect blame, he’s a spineless coward, too many people like this today, you mess up you accept it and try and put it right
Claiming credit for JL’s work from the Rennes reversal…..GoN post Man Utd away
Why prolong the agony? Sack the fraud!We are in such a predicament, it's still too early to sack him (and I do want to see how we play at home against teams at our level) yet not too early to start sniffing out a replacement which means the sacking isn't too far away.....terrible place to be in.
He's just the wrong guy for the job, not convinced there are many "right" guys for the hole we have once again dug for ourselves.
A suggested change...Think it’s time he had a song…
To the tune of Ghost Town by the Specials, which itself feels appropriate…
This clown is taking us down
GON is ****ing clueless
This fool is taking us down
Can’t go on no more
People getting angry
it's still too early to sack him [...]
He's just the wrong guy for the job
I have met Saunders a fair few times since his time at wolves…..The Saunders comparisons really are a lazy one
.. but those quotes are so Saunders esque.
Gerrim in!I have met Saunders a fair few times since his time at wolves…..
My two pence…..
He is always nice about the club and fans, he did try his best and admits he wasn’t good enough.
He admits and even told me of mistakes he made and talked about ones I never knew about!!
I wasn’t even asking him about wolves! I was enjoying his stories as he is a great bloke to hang out with. But the drunker he got the more talked about wolves hahaha
He may have been a crap manager, but I have grown to like him since meeting him and at least he can admit he got stuff wrong .
I don’t believe GO ever will admit he is to blame for anything
Hahaha, God no!!!Gerrim in!
Why is it too early? He's not good enough. He never was or will be good enough.
This is a competitive results based game. If someone isn't good enough what is the point of throwing games away.
"You're a **** manager Gary, but we'll give you 10 games because sacking after 8 would just be rude"
Exactly. This team has had plenty of time together, yet we look clueless in possession and fall apart under a half-decent press.He says: “I thought we looked like a team that hadn’t played together much.
FFS, we have just had an international break 8 of that team remained at Compton, so there was ample time to get this group playing together as a team if he actually had the foresight to think and plan ahead
based on his recent comments I read them, that he knows that managing in the PL is way over his level of ability so he is setting the narrative that it’s someone’s else’s fault to protect my own future reputation
Sums it upGone from being dismayed at his appointment to full on hating the bloke in a matter of weeks.
Perhaps more concerning though, isn’t the fact he sounds like an imbecile every time he opens his mouth, it’s that this same imbecile somehow managed to convince the likes of Hobbs that he was the right man for the job.
I have said a number of times on different threads already, but going from Lopetegui to this, just wow. I genuinely wouldn’t blame the players if they have downed tools. It’s an insult to the the vast majority of them they they should be expected to take orders from someone like GON.
This past 3 months or so as a Wolves fan has done more to make me fall so quickly out of love with football than any VAR decision or useless referee ever could. Just don’t see where we go from here.
Until Fosun sell, we are a dead, apathetic club.
Should be loud and proud on repeat against City. Enough apathy from fans. Be vocal.Nuno had a dream
To build a football team
With Chinese owners and a wonderkid from Porto
Then Covid came round
We ended up with this clown
We’re Wolverhampton
We’re on our way down
