I'd be annoyed as he'd get it at the Gillingham home game and they haven't won away all season. You know what would happen next...

beag_teeets Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 In teh werdz of the interwebs LOL! That would be quality, we would be the only club to boo the manager of the month. I hope this happens just to see some of the people's face at BP contort as they try to process the information that we might have turned a corner but they have set their minds to ousting the manager but, but..but..does not compute...

OLDHAMADE Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I'd rather he didn't because it's the kiss of death like most managers have found out and at the wrong time for us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aliofashy Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 (edited) I would love for that to happen, six more points this month would be absolutely fantastic, like him or not if we can maintain our little run then I would welcome the award being given to Penney. Would this mean we have turned a corner? Edited March 17, 2010 by aliofashy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Ritchie Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 But then the Manager of the Month curse (where you lose your next few games) would strike and it would affect our promotion push. I’m out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scapegoat Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 If penney gets manager of the month for march i'll eat my shoe. That's the kind of internet post that someone will definitely go searching through the archives to bring back to the front page if it came true! To be honest, even if we did win the remaining 3 games we'd have a record of P7 W5 D2 L0. Would that be good enough? Generally the award goes to a team in the promotion mix doesn't it?

BeanDrill Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I like Dave Penny & i think he'll have a solid second season. Create a strong foundation and build from there. He's been unlucky with the attacking options this season. Worthington getting injured has prevented Furman from playing his normal game. Parker was a gamble that hasn't paid off, Abbott has scored 11 goals but we suffered hugely when he was injured, Heffernan was the perfect foil for Abbott but numerous postponements meant a stuttering stay for him here and then Donny screwed us over. Nardiello is another piece of good business but bad piece of luck. The form & injuries to Taylor and Smalley hasn't helped either. Plus Rob Purdie sounded like he'd be a fans favourite. Let's definitely give Penny a second season. Howard Kendall was gonna get the boot before he won the FA Cup in '84. Then he won the Charity Shield, League Title, Euro Cup Winners' Cup & made the FA Cup Final in '85. ALL WE ARE SAYING IS GIVE DAVE A CHANCE!

Matt Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I do remember somebody declaring that a piece of headgear would suffice as a meal for some bet or other. I think they renaged in the end, after calls of "How do you want your hat, over easy?" and the like. I suppose it's not like one would carry out the wager. Hey, perhaps we could watch the shoe eating on youtube or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love it, I'd absolutely love it. I can't see it happening though TBH. I can see us beating Brighton and Brentford but I think when it comes down to it someone will spot that this month we've probably had the best set of fixtures out of everyone in the league for the season and give it to someone who's beaten teams in the top half. I can see DP being in the top 3 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
