Forest Green manager

Post by Fanny »

Apparently said something along the lines of “you’re a Justin Edinburgh imposter” to Ross, hence why he went nuts and got sent off.

Sickening if true.

It’s currently doing the rounds on Twitter. Seems like a twisted and odd thing to make up so I reckon it’s true.

There’s being a pr*ck and then there’s being subhuman.

Absolute disgrace, there's gamesmanship but some places you just don't go. Should've stuck a few two-footed challenges in their players in return... would've been worth the fine.

Not a nice comment!
It wasn’t their players, but by all accounts the manager!

What's good for the goose is good for the gander. The players were equally snide on the pitch, especially the chief snake Adams. Shame Clay didn't finish the job he started rather well taking him out the game.

All this family club fair play crap needs to go - others will play dirty and it's time this club wised up to that.

Don’t agree, we should be bigger than that.

Sometimes you just have to join them to beat them. That's where Orient are often naive.

If I were Ross and if he said that I'd have taken a years ban from football and smashed him all over the ground. That is proper out of order if that happened.

Disgraceful and appalling. I hope the club makes an official complaint to the league over this.

Cooper’s Father Terry, the old Leeds left back, would’ve taught his son all about Gamesmanship etc but comments like that are disgraceful.
Hopefully the 4th official heard it .

Looking forward to the return fixture.

He was carded at the time which means the officials saw it so he won't be able to get any further punishment.

Would you do that to lose your job.? If I had done that to what some people have said to me over the years at work I wouldn't still have a job.Looks like footie is different.

Not nice but that’s professional sport. No point in getting wound up. Just laugh at him.

FGR got under our skin, we reacted and lost focus on what we were supposed to be doing. So Cooper said something nasty about Ross and Justin, Ebou ran around pretending to be a victim ( whilst scoring two goals).
Well boo hoo. If we can't stand the heat.....

That's the thing, you fight them at their level. So many clubs know Orient are a soft touch, when will the club learn the "family club" culture won't work on the pitch when the opposition are filth?

Would I have done that? I probably would yes cos once the red mist comes I used to struggle to control it. Now I've mellowed out somewhat, but I won't back down.

Ross: “I can accept that bit, but to follow it up with ‘who I do I think I am? Justin Edinburgh?’ is something that I’ll never accept."

We need that type of leadership from an experienced manager but of course we haven't and won't get one.

Not at all.

The first incident that kicked everything off was that shocker of a tackle by Gorman on Adams.

We started it today.
