It will take time for these changes to take effect. Players aren't suddenly going to become 'Arnie' style body builders overnight like at Chavs Borough this season. Will also need some luck in getting in the type's of player he's seeking. Fixture lists can also be cruel when they come out in regards to getting off to a flyer.
However i'm a firm believer in that it's the extra 2 or 3 percent every game that makes the difference between play-offs and relegation battles. Clearly Jimbo realises this as over 46 games that 2 or 3 percent becomes a big margin. We will be organised, fit, competetive and (thank god) be exploiting set pieces once more.
Nice too that he's also thinking about psychological stuff like the tarting up the ground and making the opposing dressing rooms less friendly. Again it all adds up over a season. For me though i just hope that the expectancy level isn't too crazy. Yes lets aim as high as poss. That's the whole point surely. But there will be times when things go wrong (bloody refs etc.) and injuries, all the things sometimes beyond control.
At such times we will need to patient. This is a tough League - and getting tougher by the season. Be realistic. It will take time for Jimbo to get his feet under the table. Get used to the job. As fans we need to give him that space and back him. If we do we can go on some fantastic footie adventures once more with Jimbo and co. FA Cup run anyone?

No excuses to not get behind the team and manager as one now!

The support should always be behind the team and management, unfortunately if things don't work out with Jimbo then the people who turned on Sammy will probably be the first to turn on Jimbo.

Well, they might do.......

You were being quite accurate and well meaning there until your jim said several times he will not deal with agents comment, utter balls, if he said that fine, he never though, i recall him saying he was spending up to 8 hours a day on the phone, and how keen the agents were to contact him.
It is very noble spirited, but naive to think you can build a good squad out of agent free players, but there are non, do not misquote the gaffer again please.
