Very good. Exactly, that's what bothers me - that "despite Carlo"-attitude.

To be honest, he brings it on himself. If he was a guy that admitted he made a wrong decision, or blamed a defea on his tactics, I'm sure people would be more lenient with him. But the fact that he blames it on everyone and everything but himself and his tactics, and his stubberness in this just makes everyone look at him when things go wrong.

Can't say the same about everyone, but as far as I'm concerned, the only reason when I criticize Carlo is when his performance isn't up to the mark. Sure everyone is entitled to having a bad day in the office every now and then, but Carlo is different in that his decisions can affect the entire team. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Maybe it's just his way, his style of playing laid back football, but what about him not motivating the squad? Or only giving chances to established players? Playing the Christmas tree? At the end of the day he's the one who made us finish 4th and 5th consecutively, despite the fact that the players themselves played crapped. It'll always be the coach in the eyes of the management, the fans, the media.

He's a very decent tactician, more so in Europe, and a fine coach at that. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) This much I know. He still has my support, as long as he's heading the chair, that's the least I can do being a fan of the club. Sure he's made some weird choices, and as much as they hurt, I won't complain as long as the results are coming, and the players get along well with the coach. But some of the dirt he's thrown at, he brings it upon himself.

My point, exactly. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/king.gif)

That's a good point. I've never ever seen Carlo admitting a mistake and taking the blame for a bad performance. and I mean NEVER.

He must be God.

10 goals

8 in Serie A
2 in UEFA Cup

And it's not even halfway through the season yet. he will probably end up scoring more goals than what I predicted (16).

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) If we don't want to sell the club, fine. But the least we can do is outsource the official website to someone who knows what they're doing. The design is okay, but the content of the English version is plain meh.

A dedicated blog alone that's well updated through the day is well enough for me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) Of course keep the site too, but I usually get more information from forums than our club website.

Naturally. And TBH I think one of the problems this era carries is - "over-information" (don't consider this a lousy defense of our...well...bad or not up-to-date website).

Yeah. I like to call if 'information overdose'. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) And I suffer from it sometimes.

Hmph. And one would think they could do a great job if they tried. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Berlusconi has experience in running media and TV channels, having half a decent website should be a no-brainer.
