Similar times of taking over, beoth barely won a game thereafter. The only LL game you won was against 10 men for most of it.

Redcar Posted May 5, 2019 Author Share Posted May 5, 2019 Is it too much to expect to hear something from our new management team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergie1 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Valid point. I do feel JH pushed for the interviews after every game. Before his arrival away game interviews where non existent/rare and also no surprises player post match interviews stopped when JH arrived probably to prevent them from telling us how hopeless he was.

Got to be fair to little the squad he inherited was abundantly obvious out of its depth in the lowland league but from day one his levels of enthusiasm and commitment looked very questionable, anyway that's gone now as far as Whitehill, I will look on with interest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berwicksfinest Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 To be fair They inherited the squad a few days ago, off arguably the worst manager in history. We previously been tanked 7- 1, 6-0 and 5-0 even 3-0 against Albion !! I call 2-0 away from home an improvement Who knows 0-0 is on the cards next 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fergie1 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Interesting to see that murrell has been instrumental in bonnyriggs play off games to get them into the lowland league. A standard of teams playing in it that will be no worse than cove probably. Why did Harvey let him go when we are so toothless going forward. Why was that arsehole so eager to make mass changes which could potentially destroy our club. Sorry a bit off track with that rant but had to get it of my chest when I look at the state we are in and look at how well the ones we let go are doing now, and what we replaced them with. Madness.

Murrell has put in some excellent displays since his arrival at Bonnyrigg. His movement off the ball and control on it can be excellent.He also looks like he's enjoying his football which might well be making all the difference as I understand the problem at Berwick was more his attitude than ability.

Brett isn’t playing there on merit so your point doesn’t stand. Murrell wasn’t good at Cowden either. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
