I remember going to see us play Morecambe away at the beginning of November and thinking there was definitely something wrong. Morecambe were rubbish but we never even tried. At the end of the game my son and I both noticed Embleton's over the top clapping of the fans and the away fans could be forgiven for thinking he was our manager. Still suspect we shot the messenger.

Well ross ain't him is he !
Bertie Mee at arsenal was another non footballer
But by average probability a ex footballer will be a reasonable manager over a person that has not played and has a character that is not inspiring like our Ross and displays immature acts like
1. Enjoying the media attention to himself as "Ross the boss" who know one else actually really knows.
2. Repetitive boring interviews
3. Throwing chewing gum
4. Arguing with a opposition manager and getting sent off more than once
5. Wearing that stupid cap with an oversize peak at an interview in the semi darkness displaying a reckless regard to the viewer
The clip u attach shows a person who was 29 / 30 at the time and had been working under extreme pressure where the club were exceptionally unstable
Be honest tuff if ling was not DOF Ross would not of be manipulated into the job which he was not selected in competition at least Fletcher achieved that at lofc

In truth the spectacular failure was in Travis, Teague and Ling in appointing him in the first place. If I was a betting man, I would put some money on Porter not agreeing with his appointment - but we will never know.
As you say we will never know for certain, but at the time, I am sure I recall Porter saying the appointment of Fletcher was a unanimous one.
He did indeed. But....he would say that wouldn't he

Are you suggesting Mr P might have been telling fibs? Scandalous!
