You reap what you sow. They probably just played five a side.
some of us knew there was something wrong in the water 12 months ago.it took quite a few months though for others to realise it though.im sure the previous coaching set up thought tactics were mints. turn up on a saturday and see who we are playing seemed to be their attitude by looks of it.
Correct Benny!
Heading back from the Algarve in the morning pal,fancy a few ales on Sat pal.Lost a little bit of the track this week,who are we looking at as the new boss mate.
Love Owen the man,but he had lost it big time,golf my harris.
When it was raining, they did table tennis & bible reading.
His biggest problem was that he always tried to be cool & one of the boys.
It just doesn't work like that in any job. You have to have a pragmatic, mean and brutal streak first & be nice later if you want to. The split personality thing can get them really paranoid.
If your lucky and things go well you can be the nice guy. Your test is how do you sort a team out that is under performing? That's when the tough decisions are made and he maybe for the first time in his managerial faced decisions he had never really had to make

Textbook management theory there..........ive never seen this textbook, but erm.....yeh
I don't know how training went before but the only reference point I can come up with was from SKD and Ricketts on goals on Sunday where they claimed we don't really do tactics. Also I've read that all the sciency stuff Big Sam brought in got canned off. (Even Megson kept them on ffs.)
That last comment from Bricks reminds me of one of my old bosses who was one of the lads but one day had to issue us out a proper rollocking. Not used to this from him we worked through tea breaks and cut lunch short to get back in the good books.
Obviously there were no tactics of any sort. No game planning or team selection to attack the oppositions weaknesses.
It was blantantly obvious to all of us fans who no nowt about football.
