Re: SHA poll - New Manager

Can everybody who wants Carsley please give a reason as to why other than the fact he's born in Birmingham? Genuinely interested into what the reasoning for most is.

For the same reason people want Cotterill - they read on here that he must have been the reason we won those games to stay up last season and that's good enough for them. People need to express an opinion and, as most are devoid of opinions of their own, they latch onto one without applying any critical thought and wear it as their own. They are usually the types who argue that they are entitled to an opinion and accuse others of presenting their (often well thought out or evidence based) opinions as "facts" without ever being able to argue factually for their own 'entitled opinion'.

The only people stupider are the ones who automatically plump for a previous manager. The same happens when it comes to people 'scouting' players during the transfer window.
