What on earth are you both on about? Do you really want me to reiterate what I have said on here multiple times since at least the Luxembourg defeat which is when the tide started to turn - for me - from optimism and belief in Kenny to something else? I wont bore everyone on here with it again - god knows ive done that enough - but my post history is open record if you doubt what I am saying. If that is how you see the conversations we have had over the last couple of years then you would both really want to give your heads a shake. It is stupid to even have to clarify that, for anyone, it was not an overnight thing.
Here's what i know. There were some - and you are one of them Paul - who had the knives out after the Slovakia draw and subsequent loss on penalties. That was 3 games into his tenure. It was after that game that knocked us out of contention for the Euros that you fled the ship and, in a whatsapp group, lamented incessantly that the fans wouldnt be going away together. You couldnt handle the fact, when it was pointed out to you (again), that it was a team in transition and at least 2 years away from rebuilding to a point where new, high-potential players were blooded and we might have a decent shout at challenging again. You couldnt handle it. You wanted the **** ups, you didnt want the rebuild.
Both of you - take the digs you like at me and I'll defend my position until the cows come home but I have never once heard from Paul or anyone else that was in that same boat as to the justification for wanting him gone after 3 games. Thats no less egregious than wanting to give the man a couple of years to try and get it right.
