I've just read on the NLD site that Sutton U's chairman has given their manager the dreaded 'vote of confidence' despite the result of their tie in a certain poxy knockout competition.
Do that mean what I think it do?

Both barrels - in the back, while smiling sweetly? Not the Sutton way, but a vote of confidence is a vote of confidence, after all. Strange isn't it. How aomething that is supposed to inspire confidence is now universally accepted as meaning the exact opposite of what it says!  Fortunately, if the Choccy people change their manager, the upturn in fortune and resounding victory that is guaranteed during the first game after the change will not be something that I shall worry about... They ain't playing us!  |

Thing is, unlike every other football club in the land, ours isn't run by lying backstabbing imbeciles so a vote of confidence (which i don't see it as, proper votes of confidence come after the fans start singing whoever out and bricking the managers car rather than a weak start to the season) from a Sutton man is more than likely to mean just that.
Not to say Bruce wasn't livid after Saturday's FA Cup disaster.

I only heard that he had quite deliberately NOT given him the "vote of confidence"!
