I think the documentary has really highlighted the need for a DOF like Campos. The bits that we have seen from the board, Levy and Cullen show they are clueless on the football side of the business and Cullen just seemed clueless altogether.

I’d be fascinated to hear from any of the ITKs about Steve Hitchen and how he is regarded because he came across terribly too but he was previously linked to United and Marseille. Also, I thought I remembered Jose saying Bergwijn wasn’t one of his choices but was put forward by the transfer committee, presumably Hitchen.

Just finished it and quite enjoyed it to be honest. Did Jose say we are going to win the title this season right at the end? I can’t wait!

Felt angry after yesterday but after seeing Daniels PR for the sky walk and the players with their Moet, I feel a lot better

Just finished the last 3 episodes, levy realllllllly doesn’t come across well, whereas Jose seems like a knight in shining armour - one thing that gets me (and my Mrs who doesn’t know/like football) but picked up on the players body language during team meetings is abysmal!

thst squad has some right rotten apples me thinks!

mid the bonus episode next Monday? Any ideas what’s in it?

Pretty sure the 9th episode was the bonus episode, as it was initially supposed to be 8 but they extended it to include all the COVID drama.

Was left feeling that José is the one that needs to adapt.

It’s basically a season of him criticising the players, telling them they need to be c-words, more aggressive blah, blah, blah. It may well be for the camera (I hope so, at least) but it felt like a really antiquated management style. It’s not really a surprise that they didn’t look motivated. I think a lot of those players doubted themselves even more after a few months of that.

We definitely need more leaders in that dressing room but, I’m sorry, good leaders do not have to be c-words. They can be vocal, inspiring and demand a lot from those around them without the need for that.

Not impressed.

Think this documentary has somehow done Levy irreparable damage. Confirmed so much that everyone feared, added extra stuff to worry about and it’s rather unfortunately aligned with us being utter shit this season too, showing nothing has changed. This was clearly a PR exercise so question is, does he care? Is he upset as a respected businessman at what an arse crawler he comes across with Jose? It’s all rather embarrassing

Shame there wasn’t a bit where levy brought a guitar in and stated singing free love on the free love highway

Anybody who has bases their opinion of a guy who has run our club for 20 years, whether a positive opinion or a negative opinion, on 9 hours of an Amazon puff piece, is the one who is all rather embarrassing.

Those who don’t take people at their worst when they’re trying to be their best are foolish

It’s good to know José wants to upgrade 3-4 positions but the super duper scout is only looking to bring in 2 or 3 players

See, my attitude to supporting a football club is if you can’t deal with the bad times, you don’t deserve the good. Novel I know

I would say your attitude is generally being a bit of a dick to anyone who doesn’t agree with you. There’s lots on here like that and why this site is basically disintegrating as those with opposing views to the general party line are either ridiculed or leave to go elsewhere.
