Phil Brown

[Ricey]

Hes a full of himself smug git. But i dont hate him. Gave us some great times.

His recruitment was way off the mark and helped root us in this ****ty division but If anything i blame RM for going back to him.

Not sure your logic behind that. There multiple managers between his departing then coming back. If anything Ron messed up but not getting him in earlier to steer us from the drop.

When we went down Brown signed Bridge (still here), Arnold who was a fan favourite and had he stayed Collin wouldn’t have had as many starts as he had and Dalby who we sold for a decent amount of money! I think the reason we are in this ****ty division is down to one man and one man only. To blame Brown’s recruitment is just laughable!

Unlike some on here, I have always liked Phill Brown, I think he is a decent bloke and always wish him well.
At the moment he is Top of the League with Kidderminster Harriers, so good luck to them.
Here is Phill’s Post Match interview.

Loves his familiar lines “putting a marker down” Hope to see him next season, has a bad rep with fans who should remember his first great spell with us and not continually hark on about his less glorious second spell.

I totally agree on the recruitment front, but I still haven't forgiven his lack of pre match preparedness when we visited the North Essex Cousins. Had we taken the spoils from that game we would have kept our league status. But all of that is water under the bridge now.

We didn't get relegated because of this one game but because Martin left it too late getting shot of the hopeless Molesley. If Brown had had longer to turn things round we probably would still be in the EFL.

He mentions not making players train on Christmas Day for the obvious reason that it would do more harm than good. A few years back Ron hd the hump with the players and demanded PB gets them all in on the 25th........Of course I would never grass anyone up but the rumour is PB agreed with Ron, then told all the players about it and not to bother.

That doesn't alter my opinion of his lack of readiness tactically for that Colchester game.

Maybe not but one game was not to blame for relegation

You didnt read what i said properly.

I said his recruitment helped cement us in this division, not take us down there. Im not only blaming his recruitment and i didnt say that.

Are you forgetting that first year or just cherry picking the couple of players that were ok?
