Possibly, through gritted teeth, trying to think of a way to extricate himself from the very deep, dark and dank hole he has dug for himself without compromising his nasty little agenda? It may be too much to hope that he has trod the Road to Damascus, but we've already seen one miracle so you never know...

He'll be out in a month.

Eh? Why would that be then?

The performance was there last night. The effort was outstanding, the players did very well and it was a terrific result. The likes of Halley, Worrincy (!), Sheriffe and Jeffries were terrific and the side pulled off a wholly unexpected win that MAY kick-start the season and they (and McNamara) deserve all the praise they will get after the game.

However, they now need to push on and prove that it was not just a case that managed to raise our game against our derby rivals and that it was a one off. I could also ask where that performance had been for the rest of the season.

Credit where it is undoubtedly due, the team proved me (and more than a few others) wrong last night. Hopefully I will be eating a lot more humble pie in the following weeks.

I would take the advice in your own signature myself.

well done for showing up ME, there will be plenty of posters who wont post again untill we lose again. And I agree with the bit in bold, we really need to back it up on Monday at Wakey, that could be even tougher though, to raise ourselves after that effort with such a short turnaround.

Irrespective of whether this win secures his future, hopefully MacNamara will feel free to watch the match from his normal place in future.

TBH think he should stay on touchline, gets more involved that way. Anyone else notice we used side entrance to changing rooms rather than tunnel at end of warm up. maybe a sign of keeping team and coaching staff away from the boo boys before kickoff?
