Anderson Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Wonder if Bellamy will go back. Bellamy for player-assistant coach tbh. Shearer for player-manager too, them two could still piss that league. Easily. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I have a nagging doubt that Shearer will be a Souness esque "my way or the high way" manager that may well prevent him being, ahem, a "top boss." It's how it used to be, to be fair. Managers pander far too much to players today and that's a bad thing, IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BooBoo Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 In all management there has to be some flexibity and compromise. The Souness/ Shearer/ Seargeant Major approach will simply not work these days, for better or worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Aye, nowerdays players have much more 'power', and respect has to be earned as a manager (even by someone like Shearer). He cannot just walk into a job and just 'lay down the law', he has to be able to create a bond with the players and ultimately earn there respect first. His dealing with Barton seemed pretty shit tbh (although we don't know exactly what happened). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGuv Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Looks like i'll now be looking for Cardiff's results alongside Huddersfield's now. Good luck Al Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hakka Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I don't think Shearer will be this "lay down the law" type that some are saying. I think he tried that when he took over at Newcastle as it was some sort of shake up attempt. I can't see those few games as Toon boss can be truly taken as indicative of his managerial style for Cardiff. He's still got to get a full season of managing a club under his belt yet and I'm sure he will change with the job overtime like anyone else would.

Apart from him being as boring as a wet Tuesday afternoon in Doncaster and offering zero insight into the games, there was nothing wrong with him at all.

Pilko Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Shearer's punditry is garbage. He over-compensates by rarely saying positive things about us, so that people don't just think he's a Geordie simpleton. There was a newspaper article pointing out that his vocabulary range is so narrow compared to most other pundits. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I hope they get Matt Holland, who seems to me an excellent pundit, but sadly I can't see that happening. It'll be Lee fucking Dixon promoted from MoTD2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Cardiff fans seem pretty split, the adventurous half would like to give him a craic, realising that although he is inexperienced he would bring a LOT to the club in terms of PR especially. The other half want Malky f***ing Mackay Aye, strange they'd want a Championship proven manager ahead of someone who couldn't even inspire his hometown team to bother trying in the face of getting relegated. Can only assume they've given him mad wages and told him there is money to burn on transfers/wages. Makes no sense otherwise. From an objective POV I'd be fuming if I was a CCFC fan.

Foluwashola Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Going to be difficult to keep Cardiff in the top 6, whoever they appoint. Hope he does well and makes a mockery of some of the daft twats on here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
