ATS, would you like to try and defend the idiot? If so, please start another thread cos I like the flavour of this one.
However, on a more general note I find it a combination of frustrating and perversely amusing how opinion on here can vacillate so extremely. On any given match day (when we win) LS is almost a demi god in the eyes of some. However should we lose or in certain cases merely draw with teams percieved by some correspondents as inferior he is quite the most clueless buffoon ever to see the light of day. Should we then win again in the following fixture, some are raising a statue to him.
Just an observation on the peculiarities of football supporters in general and, might I say Alty fans more specifically?
In a roundabout fashion there, Phil, you have actually captured the essence of Lee Sinnott's tenure at Moss Lane/The J Davidson Stadium.
Every time that we look like we are making real progress, we invariably shoot ourselves in the foot/lose a game.
Alas, it's symptomatic of Sinnott's reign and remains a deeply frustrating pattern.
Consequently, the support is divided into three schools of thought in relation to our current manager.
There are true believers, like yourself, who have already been converted to the cause.
Then there are those supporters who deem that we have the players to gain promotion but who have yet to be convinced as regards whether Sinnott is the man to lead us to The Promised Land (and I suspect that this section will include the majority of the Alty faithful. It's certainly the category in which I reside).
Finally, there are those who have already lost faith in Sinnott's methods.
Who knows who's actually right....?!
