Breaking news from Braintree F.C........

[AFF]

..........The Iron have appointed Graham Roberts to the managers post at Cressing Road following the resignation of Culverhouse and Parratt.

 

Someone on their message board said, gleefully, "...things are about to get interesting".

 

I should think so.

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

It doesn't get more huge than that!

[AFF]

You're right EFMTFTV. This one will be really HUGE.

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

[Mark (Flag) Braintree]

IT IS MASSIVE.

[Carrot Cruncher]

HUGE

Crunch, Crunch, Crunch ...

[American FLEET FAN No1]

The only thing HUGE will be .....the debt he leaves them with!!!!!

[mala_D]

At least we know where he hides it all now...

 

 

My God!!! They are HUGE!!!

[Webbo MFI]

I'm sure Mr Harding said something along the lines of "I'll never appoint Roberts as manager"

 

hmmm....

[Laz]

The guy may be dodgy (Roberts I mean) but at least he knows how to manage a football team and has had some success.

[Webbo MFI]

not too good on the budget bit tho...

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

If Graham Roberts were announced as our new manager, I'd be pretty happy.

 

A manager can only overspend if his chairman allows him to do so.

 

 

[Carrot Cruncher]

Some success you say. He's won things that you posh City boys haven't since the twenties and he's been in the Conference.

CRUNCH CRUNCH CRUNCH ...

[JKiF]

he's been to Barcelona and Anderlecht as well..

'GR took over a sick club in 1995. The team consisted in the main of older players coming to the end of their careers and were playing a long-ball style that was as unattractive as it was unsuccesful. Morale everywhere was low and relegation was inevitable. '

 

Sounds familiar...

[Carrot Cruncher]

Don't be shy Uncle Rob, continue the article (to save you the trouble I'll do it for you) ...

 

"The following season was to be the charm. Enfield were our only serious rivals and we eventually won the title with 6 points to spare and a massive 101 points from the season."

 

CRUNCH, CRUNCH, CRUNCH ...

[Rob_the_Saint]

Is that you, Lee? Think you missed my point slightly there, old bean.

 

Anyway, I'm sure he'll do a decent job if his track record is anything to go by, just don't let him anywhere near the players' wages!

[Carrot Cruncher]

Who's this Lee bloke? - Does he eat beans rather than carrots?

 

CRUNCH, CRUNCH, CRUNCH ...
