Hamilton returns to Manchester United

Posts #113 onwards are a tad cryptic for me! Cox, not AB, Sol, OBL?
Is it possible that the unaware ( me) can have the linkages explained please?

- Sol has indentified Cox as someone who needs to be moved on - for more than one reason

- People don’t like Sol Campbell, because he’s not Adam Barrett (its true, he’s not)

- OBL is an acronym for @OldBlueLady, who is best known for having once appeared on a popular daytime quiz show (although when it’s on, is anyone’s guess)

Hope this helps X

A bit off topic but an excerpt of it is right here. The titanic battle of Harry.

 
Last season the much vaunted Macclesfield won three of their last seventeen games.
God help us.

Is that all?. Must admit i have never checked their results from when Sol arrived, but quite surprised by that low amount. And they still stayed up!!!.

Sol was appointed manager of Macclesfield on 27 November 2018.

If you include the match played on that day (generous) he won five of his first nine league games gaining an astonishing seventeen points. Sadly his first nine league games in charge of us yielded only three points.

He managed Macclesfield’s final 22 league games but ‘amassed’ only 14 more points. He kept them up above Notts County and Yeovil, who managed only four points from their last eleven games.

Sol is pretty much performing as you would have expected from his previous record without the new manager bounce. He rarely wins football matches but his tactical set ups and selections suggest that he rarely tries to.

Decent due diligence and his apparent inability to converse in anything but cliches would have been expected to keep him out of our job, as it appears to have kept him out of almost every other job he has gone for including Mayor of London.

Roll on Accrington.

To add a bit of balance, Macclesfield won 2 of the 3 games that Sol was in charge for this season, one of the wins being away to a team in a higher division (Blackpool), and the loss being a tight 1-0 defeat to now 2nd in the table Exeter on the opening day. So I think we can only judge him once he has had the chance to shape the squad as he sees fit, and has a pre-season with them. I still believe that whatever division we're in next season, Sol will get us promoted.
