First caller after the match - "Surely when Dean Hoyle was ill there was SOMEBODY at the club who could stop the rot " (I paraphrase). Julian Winter, David Wagner, Marsh and others - hang your heads - and Winter - GET OUT - you were weak and insipid as a footballer - I watched you - and you've carried on. Please go.
Hodgkinson will shoulder the blame but 5 or 6 others at the club watched/lost interest/ sat and did nothing whilst we plummetted.

That Winter is a complete waste of space. I'm not surprised he's always got that smug, smirky look on his face, the wage he must be on for doing fuck all..

I started watching Town in the mid 80’s and I remember some people in the crowd used to refer to him as ‘Julie Winter’ - I’ve never been able to take him seriously ever since let alone as a CEO !

Will the LAST caller switch off the lights
When we all wake up we will realise it was not a dream - --it is a nightmare.

It really seems like Phil is the fall guy, Deano has been paid out. Phil has relatively very small wealth. Bet he wishes he had stayed at the gentle little village team southport

Stop making shit up yet again It's Groundhog Day with Nick after every fucking defeat. In fact, it's like Groundhog Day following Town. I'm ragged off and jaded with it all. I wasn't even upset today, it was inevitable. Football and posters on DATM should never be inevitable.

Winter was a quality player by the time he left us. Absolutely no question about it I watched him all his Town career - technically gifted and quite graceful, but gave the impression, to me and my mates, as being rather weedy and scared stiff of any physical contact. I suspect even his admirers would agree he's not the type of player you want alongside you when the going gets tough. Very very rarely did he ever influence a game and I will be genuinely amazed if any one of my age who watched him was sorry when he left. Certainly talented but never seemed up for the fight.

I would agree with the "soft as shit" tag when he first came into the team and when he left he still couldn't be described as a "warrior". But he certainly influenced games in his final season and you may remember he left us for a team above us in the footballing ladder and for a decent transfer fee at the time. I don't think Harry Bassett would have shelled out money for someone weedy and scared in the tackle who was unable to influence.

Wasn’t it winter that somehow weaselled his way out of getting sacked whilst a couple of others were sacked back in the early 80s??

When he ended up in our league, I gave him a "Welcome to the District League tackle, " he didn't like that at all. Blended in, we didn't see much of him again all game... He was hiding like he his today

Always remember his 25 harder against Chester the same day as Hillsborough and yes in the end he was a decent player. Thing is with Winter in his role as CEO, Hoyle appointed him and he hasn't been relieved of his duties as yet so it makes you wonder what kind of job he is doing.

It's all very well making a scapegoat out of Winter and although I am not sure he's necessarily any good consider;
1 As much as we all admire and respect Dean the seeds of our current position were sewn long before he fell ill.
2 Winter is only a part of the team who took collective decisions
3 There's very little we can do with regards to the squad until January
PH has the responsibility he has to draw a line, work out a plan with Webb and the new head coach
The most important thing is to acknowledge mistakes have been made and start to address them.
It may make folk feel better having someone to blame but it achieves 4/5ths of nothing.
We're stuck with it at the moment, small improvements would be a pleasure.

We were saying exactly this 1 year ago. Then in January we got Puncheon. Reason we are all so concerned is there has been not one sign that anything is likely to change.

Hodgkinson will shoulder the blame but 5 or 6 others at the club watched/lost interest/ sat and did nothing whilst we plummetted. Apparently the reason Wagner got so bogged down with it all was because he was left to pretty much do EVERYTHING due to nobody else having a clue what they were doing once Hoyle went ill. He tried his best,but ultimately (and understandably) wasn't able to do it all and he had enough. Offered to stay on till end of the season but was told not to bother as it would give us time to get our house in order for this season...

Wagner didn’t jump ship he was as fed up as we were
If you recall Hoyle and Winter were on different pages when explaining why Wagner left
Hoyle said Wagner needed a rest from rigours of management
Whereas Julian Winter said
“And, David being the human being he is, said 'building up to a January transfer window, does the club want to adapt? How does it think about different things”
Wagner’s later explanation was closer to Winter’s
.... I assume the Board didn’t want to take a different approach in the January window... ie spend some cash! We know this was the case hence the ridiculous signing of Puncheon

Winter was a quality player by the time he left us. Absolutely no question about it He played at West Vale as a kid, same team as me (or possibly an age group higher), long time ago. You could tell back then he was a level above. Think he was referred to as Joss Winter, not Julie as someone has stated on here. Emotions running high on here as usual. I might go and drop PhilinC a message and see if I can spend my time more productively, like refining the perfect pork pie recipe...
