Oh fecking dear Barnet. Not good news but if it’s any consolation he did bring in some decent players during last year’s window. He then proceeded to either not select them or play them out of position like the Orient game. And also fell out with the half decent lads in the existing squad. Luckily we sacked him just in time for Flynn to turn things round so suggest you keep GW for a couple of weeks then feck him off once you’ve strengthened the squad. Prob lwc!

The trouble with that scenario is that McGhee would get to select our next coach.

What did Barnet do to deserve Westley?

As for that form guide. I have a nose bleed! I honestly cannot remember the last time we won three in the trot. I presume it was the first season in league one but I couldn't honestly say for sure. We seem to be shit-arsing our way to safety.

Following our dramatic plunge to the bottom of the league after some awful manager appointment and awful clueless Football, last week our Chairman came out with a bold statement........ asking fans not to swear at matches as this is unacceptable. Now, apart from our rivalry with the Chavs and Westleys history, our Chairman appoints a person who has had the most vile and crude abuse hurled at them by our own supporters than any other person on this planet. One way or another, I can see this all ending in tears.

Randall is a big fan of GW - you read his tweets today?

Yep. I liked Randall when he was here but he wasn't really an Allen player. When Westley's Newport played at our place last year he was subbed after about 30 minutes. Don't think he played again for them after that.

Not under Westley no but he did play for Flynn.

Barnet fans need not worry, I remember Westley saying he was targeting the play offs at Newport last season and that went well for him so what could possibly go wrong this time?

Apparently Luke Garrard declared his interest in the job yet despite this we still went for Westley.

From Waddock and Garrard to Westley in the space of just over a week. Shame on us.

This just gets fucking worse. I genuinely reckon we're one of the worst run clubs in the FL at the moment. Sunderland are worse off but there's not many others. Shambles.

Stop calling him Westley and start calling him medal winner.

I'd be delighted if Westley was ever Notts manager, what a showman.

Not sure whats happening at barnet. A few weeks ago mark mcgee is appointed manager but is now moved to technical director whilst a new head coach comes in. Seems as bizare as the edgar davids setup in the conference days. Never supported a club managed by westley but didn't he do well at farnborough amd stevenage but then it went wrong for him. Remember him been very rude to bbc sport reporter clem at newports fa cup game against alfreton

How about Alan Devonshire? Always seems to do a good job wherever he goes on limited budgets, good contacts etc. Deserves a crack at the football league.
Shut up Chris, you plonker. See you next season. :£:£:£:fl::bdick:

Medals will probably start off well, he usually does, then it will turn to shit after 11/12 games.

Worst football manager in the country.

There's two positive things I can take from that post.
Doing well for 11/12 matches could be enough to keep us up.
At least we'll get a new manager bounce this time, whereas we didn't get anything of the sort with McGhee.

I've seen us play a Westley team enough times. I know what his modus operandi is.

Hopefully he has usual his honeymoon period, he had Peterborough flying initially and at first (briefly) we played some decent stuff. But then he fully implements his methods, his useless staff get a grip of things, starts to piss everyone off and it just goes to shit.

No way can I ever seen him changing.

I agree with you and I think he's past his best managerially anyway as his methods were ineffective at Newport last season.
At least he won't be bringing Maamria with him to us.

I fucking despised Maamria, absolute moron who did nothing but kick off with the opposition bench.

Hopefully he doesn't have his big, fat Turkish goalkeeping coach these days. The bloke was a mess.

Ouch, Barnet.

Big shift from the style of play from earlier in the season to Westley.

Horrible man.

Barnet surely can't be any worse though - so that's something.

This would have been more accurate with Ride of the Valkyries as backing music.

I'm not a member of the twatersphere. What did he say?

To be fair Randall has been in and out of the side this season and has not shone in any game I've seen so he may be angling for a move.

Was mark mcgee just a caretaker manager amd has now resumed his normal role?

Who knows? Our chairman has spun the line that McGhee was only ever coming to the Hive in a DoF role and thar his brief has been to search for a manager but that wasn’t how it was reported at the time.

As managers go, there's probably a good number who are more likely than Westley to get you relegated, and it's how he keeps getting jobs, he gets plenty of teams into relegation trouble to begin with, and after he goes it'll take a season to repair the damage he did but his record doesn't look all that bad if you're already in relegation trouble and are willing to try anything to stay up. I prefer to term him 'the nuclear option'.
