I was thinking the same , hopefully Potter is a better manager

And has better luck with injuries than Hinsh had.

Zamora, Cullip and Kuipers all missed a fair amount of his tenure.

Did we not lose ten straight after the draw?

 

[DJ NOBO]

We just need to get a Paul kitson type character in, and I’m sure it’ll be fine

Ten in the league under Hinshelwood and the the first two under Coppell.

Hinchelwood was new to management, full stop, from what I remember. Potter is not an inexperienced manager.

It could also end up being like the 16/17 season.

Game week 1 I had a massive sh*t on the Saturday morning.
Game week 2 I had already had a massive sh*t Friday evening, so not sh*t on Saturday until the evening.
Game week 3 I explosive diareah.

It could also end up being like the 19/20 season.

Game week 1 I had a massive sh*t on the Saturday around midday.
Game week 2 I had already had a medium sh*t Friday evening, still, no sh*t on Saturday until the evening.
Game week 3 Diareah (not explosive but still resulted in a burning ring).

My conclusion is we will finish 2nd.

More goals. Better GD. We're on our way!

Yeah, Hinsh was a coach thrust into the job after Knight couldn't get his preferred managerto replace Taylor (who walked away knowing we had no chance) having just been promoted into a league we were way over matched for, with our star player injured, no new signings, at a stadium unfit for purpose.

Graham Potter is an experienced manager headhunted for this role with £60 million spent on new players and all the backing he needs
