The College Dropout Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Carver was told to do it. Well f*** me, a manager told to deal with players. Whatever next. He's the head coach. If he isn't the one making that decision I'm not sure those doing it should be hiding behind him. Agreed. Also as it's blatantly obvious Carver would've kept both of them. So the conversaton would be on behalf of the club/people making the choices which is cowardly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how most of the world works if you are a manager. Carver being such a tart to his "mates", is more pathetic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Urgh that is fucking scummy and although to be expected from the club, Carver doing their batting in this way says everything about just how pathetic he has become. A man of say Sir Bobby's character would tell them face to face and thank them. Jonas helped keep the club up for fuck sake. I suppose that's what he got for aiming his celebration at the man child up in the stands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallace Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 I just wish the club could do things in the right way. How hard can it be? It just appears that they are cowards and always get someone else to do their dirty work. It is so sad that so many of our players leave feeling bitter in the end - and it is always directed at the boardroom. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segun Oluwaniyi Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Life is not fair and sport is a harsher business than most. Right now both of their careers are in the wilderness and the 6-7 years of service and wear on their bodies they have put into this club will mean nothing when the NUFC no longer owes them a cheque. Both surely knew it was coming and I don't think the manner of it is overly important. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 I don't think the manner of it is overly important. I do, I think as a club we are classless and I hate that most about us because you can be shit, not win things, but still be a good club with good people and good intentions. We have none of that. We are a dispicable club from top to bottom. Guys like Raylor and Jonas deserve to be treated with respect and we as a club need to show class at all times. Word of mouth is huge in football, acts like this does the club lasting long-term damage. It is very bad PR. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toon25 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 The lot of them (coaching staff) were more interested in being popular and having a laugh than getting the best out the players. Like a strange David Brent parody. 'So JC, tell us about your staff' 'The playas, they're the legs...Mike, the brains...Lee the thumb' 'And which part are you John' 'The huuma'.

Guest firetotheworks Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Would you expect to find out that your contract at work was going to end via telephone after working for a company for 7 years, where your last act was stopping it from going tits up? Or would you at least expect a meeting in person and a thank you? Even if it was just with your line manager? It's abhorrent man, the decision being the right one and the person telling them being acceptable doesn't make the method of doing so any less pathetic and disrespectful. Even if he'd hung up and rang Jonas separately it would have been marginally better, but it seems that NUFC insists upon being a stomping ground for absolute arse holes.

STM Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Surely they knew that their contracts where about to end? It's not like they are getting sacked, they are out of contract. In my work, I would have got a Fucking letter through the post. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Don't care that Carver was the one to do it, he's their manager after all. It's not like he's done anything else as manager. Of course he did it in a shit way doing it over the phone, but what else can you expect at this point. The crater faced fucker has shit the bed at every possible point in his tenure.

Anon Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Can't really believe the club let them leave the stadium/training ground knowing they weren't going to renew their contracts. They might have been shit players but they weren't Nile Ranger, they deserve a bit of common decency. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaizero Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 The only major issue here, in my eyes, is that he asked Taylor to pass the phone to Jonas rather than calling Jonas separately. Informing them that their contracts would not be renewed is the job of the manager, just a shame that means the mumbling lickspittle Carver choosing the quickest and easiest way of doing so.
