There are definite paralells with Sharpe's record at Hudders. The coach was an assistant to a successful coach but never looked comfortable in the job and players seem to be underperforming.

McNamara confessed he had no idea why we didn't perform versus Celtic so how can he be so sure we can turn things around in the latter half of the season? Last week wasn't the first time he's confessed to being baffled either!

Apart from the fact that under Sharp, Huddersfield improved dramatically both on and off the field, whereas McNamara has virtually buried the Bulls. |

When Sharpe was in charge Hudders had one decent run of form but where is he now? Hudders obviously thought he wasn't up to the job.
Agree that we've gone backwards under McNamara. |

That`s the problem the people (board) upstairs haven`t the bottle to get rid and not just that we don`t have the money to bring anyone in at the monment. |

Agree that we've gone backwards under McNamara.'" Under Sharp, Huddersfield went from 10th to 5th in the league and average crowds doubled. Under McNamara, Bradford have gone from champions to 13th and average crowds have decreased by 3,000. Huddersfield made more major finals under Sharp than Bradford have under McNamara. It's hardly comparable at all. |

So McNamara's even worse than some on here think. |

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

| I appreciate that there are a number of people on here who want McNamara out and I understand the reasons why but am I to understand that he`s now being rapped for trying to be upbeat? Would you actually be happy if he gave interviews to the press saying "WE`RE DOOMED, WE`RE DOOMED". That would really impress folks wouldn`t it? Team morale would go up no end. Sponsors would come flocking to the door. It would be one advantage after the other....................
I know some would say that was just being honest  but do come on, when people get their hooks in he just can`t do right for doing wrong. |

By far the most sensible posts on this thread have come from mystic eddie. - copyright Ewwenorfolk 09.04.2013
Aye, and Eddie is hinting at it too. And, as we all know:

The problem is that this kind of comment is being made week in and week out yet Mr McNamara is incapable of understanding that actions speak louder than words.

He has to speak to the press. There's only so much he can say. If you don't like reading it, don't. |
