He was just a little bit naive. You're reading far too much into this.


2 sepetate interviews saying basically the same thing (Mick was great, Fans are wrong).

Ill advised maybe?

Is he stupid or something? Deliberately trying to provoke the fans of the team he hopes to play for next season. I think he's played his last game.


He'll be playing tomorrow and you'll look silly (no change there).

Good on him.

I think "moving on" is about finding some objectivity and not just ignoring what Mick did at the club (both good and bad). Give him and the players the perspective and balance they deserve and then take the next step.

And a big part of that is calling out poor behaviour from a minority of the fans. They say that no managers or players are bigger than the club, but why do some fans think they are? They need to take responsibility for their words and actions like anyone else.


'Moving on' to Celtic.

TBF Darth, I think they have over the past 2 weeks

I think that's the point, why bring it up again now? 24 hours before a game

Whilst wrong, I guarantee if Knudsen has a shtter he will get lynched


Of course, they haven't "moved on". These people never do.

If anything they got worse when Mick was already leaving. And I can understand fully how this has lingered in the tight-knit environment within the club.

Nothing at all wrong with calling them out and letting them know that they don't just get a free pass now Mick has gone. They need to at least understand they've been a full part in creating the division.

Do you think he chose the questions he was asked?

Yes, better not to say given the reaction it provokes it but the players clearly still feel very strongly that what happened at Brentford was not acceptable.


- No comment.

- I don't feel comfortable answering that question.

If he wants to come across as chippy, he's certainly learnt from the best.

"Be careful what you wish for" isn't a conundrum. It means he believes that other managers won't be able to achieve what Mick has. If he has that personal opinion, then so be it. You don't come out and say that to the press making the fans look brainless


The fans he's referring to have already amply demonstrated to the world that they are brainless, nothing new from Jonas on that front.

It got worse because he should have gone the day it was announced

all clubs have these minority groups. we are no different to any others

Players don't however need to come in 2 weeks later and bring it all back up again. There is no positive to take from that interview

The problem is that he's couched it in such general terms that it simply comes across as him having a dig at *all* ITFC fans - which is pretty silly & out of order, considering we're the ones who partly pay his wages. But I don't know how much he was led on by the reporter.


I didn't take it as all fans.

Seems to be how some fans and the media want to take it though but it's really faux outrage as a cheap gimmick to justify having a bite back.

Who decided "he should have gone the day it was announced"?

There's no reason that he couldn't see out the season, and it's certainly no excuse for the numbskulls to have their say.

We don't need to have this discussion again Darth, we've been through the when should he have gone threads

my point is. ITS Done. the whole sorry affair is over with. Lets move on.

Once again, rather than talking positively about itfc, before a big game, we're talking about a negative.

It really is time to look forward not back. Look at us...all still bickering. Mick has left. He's gone. It's a new start. Time to draw a line.
Footballers say daft things. I wish they wouldn't sometimes to be honest, as they are paid a handsome wage to kick a football about. I wouldnt come down on Jonas too heavily but its slightly misjudged.

But seriously move on....

Sorry but that's how it comes across to me, and plainly many others too - far from "faux outrage", I find it leaves just rather an unpleasant taste in the mouth - and was completely unnecessary. And before anyone calls me a snowmelt or whatever, I wasn't at Brentford but was really outraged at the "kiddy fiddler" chant by a minority.

It's up to people how they deal with it. Denying these incidents were enough of a problem and should be swept under the rug is just another opinion or way of dealing with it.

Personally, I think those who were on the receiving end can take longer before they should "just move on" and they can even even respond if they want to.

Fair enough. But see my reply to Ryorry.

Just because we perhaps don't take any of this personally doesn't mean that others who were on the receiving end should just let it slide. Especially, if they're being asked to comment on the situation at ITFC and the mood in the camp.

Cannot wait for Sears coming out to defend McCarthy and say: 'be careful what you wish for as Mick has made me a better player'.

Not really sure where you're going with this.

Anyone who doesn't think Knudsen is now one of our best, most consistent and dependable players needs their heads examining. Or should just give up pretending to follow football.

He's more valuable to us than the feelings of a few numpties.

I used to think I took supporting ITFC too seriously, nowadays I look at how people react to the most nondescript things without a sense of nuance or reality and it makes me feel better about myself and sorry for them

Maybe: Definition

Informal An uncertainty: There are so many maybes involved in playing the stock market.
Informal An uncertain reply: It's better to receive a fast and honest no than a drawn-out maybe.

I think it always good to use the full sentence when quoting what someone has said.
Otherwise a discussion is fairly meaningless.

If that's the best you've got then yes, you should.

Alternatively you can tell me who is one of our best, most consistent and dependable players if he isn't.

Bart
Knudsen
Waghorn
Skuse
Connolly

These would be my top 5 in order. And maybe replace Connolly with Chambers or Webster if we're just talking about our own players.
