I could have won the league managing that Newcastle squad
Calderwood and Trollope are both failed lower league managers whose records (admittedly i'm only talking on paper here) contain nothing of any substance to suggest they have the ability to coach and/or manage top flight players at this higher level. Also there are similarities in how we play and how fans of their previous teams describe their style of play (especially Trollope at Bristol Rovers).
When combined with our sub standard displays and little evidence of quality coaching on the pitch it just leads people to suspect that there may be issues with the quality of the coaching staff.
