Terry Butcher?

Lets face it we wont get total agreement and any manager coming here is not going to be the finished article or will have had ups and downs in their careers, otherwise they wouldnt be coming to Brentford!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please can we join the real world, Adams was as good as it gets as he had got teams promoted, but he wont be coming here. Daish is as yet unproven and a risk, although appears to be doing well so far in the conference. Fairclough destroyed the conference with Barnet, hasnt quite been the same since then though. Just as Butcher is a risk, but has a higher profile than Daish. As others have said, my impression was that he did well at Motherwell with no money, so that at least give's him some credentials for the job and shows he could manage at a level above the conference. As for australia the stories began that one of the board members wanted him out before he'd even landed.

Yesterday loads of people were excited at Sherringham, who's only credentials were his name and he can score goals, no management experience at all.
 

Terry Butcher?

If he is in the frame and reading this, could the GPG scupper the second Brentford management recruitment in 4 months?:fishing:

Let's hope so -- his managerial record is mediocre and his off the field statements have rarely suggested real managerial nous. He played for England -- so what? That has nothing to do with managerial ability. As for the long ball game: god, I'm tired of hearing you can't be successful in the lower divisions without resorting to that. We've been at it for nearly 20 years, and I'm sick of it.
 

Terry Butcher?

Some bloke has said he was having a meal with Dyke and suddenly we need to pan him.:rolleyes: Was he having a meal and is he involved, we simply don't know but top to blast him now is strange.
Anyone that chose Leroy is saying that they would rather have a guy who needed a month off towards an end of season where his club were virtually relegated until Crappy Atkins pulled off a miracle.

NEW RUMOUR

Spotted Greg Dyke having breakfast this morning with Mrs. Dyke, does this mean she's in the running for the managers post?
 

Terry Butcher?

Well, now that we've almost disposed of Mr. T. Butcher, just think of the positives he'd bring: no-one would say "he's a nice guy but..." and the players would be asking for a kit with brown shorts in case they crossed him - imagine his conversation with Brooker if he pulled out of a tackle!
 

Terry Butcher?

Beesotted are running with the story.

Interesting.....

Dave also says there is an announcement tomorrow!

HoughtonBee said:
it was posted on beesotted around an hour before it was on here

You'll have to argue with "only one Steve Sidwell" on that - though Aussie Bee on Beesotted (ivor on here) says he got the news from the ****vine - anyone heard of that :rolleyes:
 

Terry Butcher?

I saw Shipperly handing over half his salary to a certain Butcher.
 

Terry Butcher?

nothing was on Beesotted before 1:00 as per Aussie Bee's thread on Beesotted as I looking through to see if anyone else had seen/heard the same....
 

Terry Butcher?

No doubt Beesotted will claim it as an exclusive :rolleyes:

If then Terry Butcher is named manager, I think the legend will be a breath of fresh air to the club...up the profile, sell a few season tickets, and that picture of his bloodied shirt should cause a few pants in the dressing room to be soiled... Butcher is the epitomy of someone who fought for every ball, battled, and played with passion...he won't stand for the feeble poofs we have currently in the squad..

If you don't think Butcher is a good enough appointment then who the F*** are you expecting??????

Terry Butcher?

If we appoint Butcher we can say hello to the Conference imho. His record is mediocre (at best) and the fact that he was 100% committed as a player is irrelevant.

No to Butcher.

No to Butcher.

I cannot believe people have started to write him off already???

WHO DO YOU WANT AS MANAGER THEN?????

The fact that he was 100% commitment as a player is a bloody start..proof that he won't stand for any of the nonesense that has gone on all season on the training field and in the dressing room...

I don't know. If Butcher's the best we can do then we're going to have to lump it.

I do know that Butcher's record is not great. I do know that he's never impressed me as a pundit. I might be wrong.

Commitment as a player is a bulls*** way of deciding whether someone will make it as a manager.

And you're talking like he's already appointed.

I don't like the choice. I think it'll be a mistake but if he's our manager then he'll have my support until he shows he can (or can't do it).

:imwith: I am with you Nick. If we have been lucky enough to poach this fella it will imho be an outstanding appointment for this club.

I would imagine he would bring a Martin Allen type disciplinary style to his management which should galvanise anyone player who thinks it just ok to turn up and take my wages..!!

I also think he would attract some decent players to play at our level. :idea:

Roy keane seems to have done a reasonable job. ;) :fishing:

I would also add Stuart Pearce (another player in the Butcher mould) has done ok. :wave:
 

Terry Butcher?

Not at all...and how am I suppossed to know that?

I just think that even if we are being linked to him then its a BIG appointment..

People would moan if it were an untried no name manager - no ambition..
Some people would even moan if it were Alex Ferguson...

If it is to be Butcher at least it raises our profile a bit...
 

Terry Butcher?

Im suggesting we select someone with a better record than Leroy, which it would seem Terry Butcher does not have.

Your pick, I believe, was Paul Ince.

Can you explain how he has a better record than Leroy, or Terry Butcher ?
 

Terry Butcher?

No thanks......

Oh Dear...the drunken, slovenly, bleak, mentally deranged and clueless English long-ball and gruff hack merchant, Terry Butcher.

ffs - we won't be happy until Alex Ferguson pitches up will we?

Here's an idea - how about when we appoint a new manager we give him a chance to park his arse in the chair before we start crucifying him. Unless of course, he's ex-Brentford which would be ok.

If you don't think Butcher is a good enough appointment then who the F*** are you expecting??????


I am with Les and Greenhorn....

Totally ridiculous to slag off a candidate, who hasnt even got the job yet...let alone Butcher who has a credible record, as a player and a person...

anyone slagging him off should hang their head in shame...
 

Terry Butcher?

I can't believe the negative comments about Butcher, hes so much better than 2 clowns we've had this year !!! please let it be true
 

Terry Butcher?

When was with the Sydney outfit and they played us (PERTH GLORY) I always felt that Sydney were a team trained by a "Butcher" and their disciplinary ecord in the league was the worse. They had more red and yellow cards than any other team in the league. This year they are playing in the Asian Champions League as they were the champions last season (under Butcher).Give him a short contract and see how he goes, with a bit of luck he may be able to get some decent players in.

Are there any Sydney fans on GPG, if so what do they think?
 

Terry Butcher?

but that Steve Sidwell bloke knew before everyone... :fishing:

Funny that he has only posted three times in two years...

Anyone know who he is?

Hope he is bona fide to be honest!!
 

Terry Butcher?

I Sit in the Paddock with the General for people who know him.

I passed on what I heard, at that time I did not know he was also spotted at the ground today. just backs things up really.

Lets just wait and see
 

Terry Butcher?

No doubt Butcher would give us the the fire we've been missing this season and the players would have to work harder. He would have the respect of most people which first of all is important. My only worry would be he's too much old school and he'd need another guy working with him who could provide a bit of flair etc. Funnily enough I think Butcher and Leroy would be a very good combination as a management team. I'm one of the only people who liked the way we went forward under Leroy and the way we tried to play early on. I'm sure Butcher could get together a well drilled defence, something which both Leroy and surprisingly even Fitz couldn't do.

Hopefully he'll have a coach who will provide a bit of flair and attacking knowledge working with him if he's appointed, just my little opinion :)

anyway, who ever comes in will have my support :sorted:

YOU BEES!
 

Terry Butcher?

Hey SmiffyBee. Where's your post gone that was emailed to me.
Anyway, Don't start me off with ROB again please!:nono: rofl
 

Terry Butcher?

FFS we are a League Two team now be realistic.

We are clearly not going to get an Ferguson or Wenger type manager on the salary and playing budget we have, so whoever gets the poisoned chalice lets give them a fair chance.

Terry Butcher hasn't even got the job yet and we're already slagging him off.

No wonder no one is interested.
 

Terry Butcher?

Well, lets sit back and see..any speculation at this point could harm any appointment imho, so if you do know anything keep your trap shut (but PM me with details of course!!)..

If this is true then how do these things get leaked? and ROB hasn't even posted yet???

Hopefully its not another Teddy Sherringham story :rolleyes:
