Well, with Riga's resignation taking us to a nice round number of six managers that have gone in the little over two years since Roland took the wheel - and finding myself having to explain the numerous ****-ups we've been forced to witness over the past couple of years to everyone I know who hasn't followed along, combined with Oliver Kays piece spurring me on, I decided to put a video together that might help sum up the situation to those of us who haven't had to put up with Meire's condescending laughter, Roly's perma-absence, or Richard Murray telling us for the millionth time that the Championship is a really hard league.

So, here it is.... I hope you enjoy it (in a weird way). I had a bit of fun with it, too. Favourites included Bob Peeters being asked what position he needed to strengthen and listing every one except goalkeeper, Luzon's 'errrrrrs' and Fraeye's admission that he's Belgian....

    Might buy a season ticket today - don't want to lose my seat!

    Seriously, that is absolutely brilliant, and unbelievable as well in terms of what these people have done. Should be a sticky I reckon.

    Great video, very well put together. I particularly liked the sombre piano; that really summed up the mood for me. There was also some footage I don't think I've seen, so I'd say you've done a brilliant job of sourcing it all.

    You're right about needing to explain the protests. I have a photoblog and ended up writing a fair chunk of text about why we are demonstrating to explain some of the recent photos I've published. I think its important because otherwise it's too easy for people who don't know, to assume that it's just football fans creating trouble for the sake of it, or that it's all about money and signings. That's why I felt annoyed when Arsenal fans protested the other week: it makes it too easy for the public to think that football fans are spoilt brats continually demanding more and better. That's not why we are demonstrating, and it's not why fans of Blackpool, Leeds and Villa have demonstrated too. It's about having incompetent owners whose weird visions for their clubs are at odds with the very purpose of having a football club.

  • Brilliant well done needs to be shown to everyone you know!
  • Also feed up with explaining to others that we are not just a bunch of whingers.

    It wont make any difference.
    Be careful what you wish for.

    Great great video:-)
    (I do love the bit where KM cannot manage the PowerPoint and doesn't quite understand how to use a mike, so that she sounds like a giant bee. SO impressive, CEO class presenting skills "fasure")

    Great work. A nice edit when Murray is talking about keeping hold of young talent and cutting to their sickening grinning mugs.

    One to bookmark and hopefully we can look back on and laugh at what was a bloody crazy period in the history of the Club.
