Minhosa Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 After a handful of games, SMc really shouldn't look the way he does after that game yesterday. He looks like Pardew at his worst. Stressed, under pressure, confused and almost panicky already. The fans, largely, haven't even turned on him yet. He looks almost broken already. That, alone, is surely a sign that this is the beginning of the end for him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 The problem is, there is no end unless he resigns. that won't be the end. It's better he takes us down or gets fired. Because Charnley and Carr deserve the boot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Cathro seems to same type as McClaren. A "thinker" and a coach. No personality. At least Carver could play bad cop to SBR's good cop. It's only about 6-7 years ago this was the opinion of Hughton. You never know, on his own or with a motivator (dare I say it someone like Redknapp), it might work.

You know, I wanted to say I could see how Redknapp and McClaren worked well together but I decided against it. I agree though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 A decent coach / tactician would surely by now be coaching our midfield/defence to hunt in packs and close down space as a basic organisational skill. The sheer lack of tactical awareness from our players is astonishing, they can't even get the basics right never mind put together fluid attacks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Bailey Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Too many of the fuckers. 1 manager, 1 assistant manager. What the fuck do all these other cunts do?? Must be confusing and divisive for the players imo. Not that many of our current crock of shit give a toss mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stal Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 I always thought there should be more coaches. The manager explains how he wants the team to play and what he would like the coaches to work on and the coaches then go and work with the players in specific areas. It makes sense (well, to me at least) that a defensive coach could pass his knowledge onto the defenders in the squad etc. This way doesn't mean that the players get mixed messages, as the manager has already explained his philosophy to the coaching staff.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Said in the McClaren thread, the impression I get is Cathro is there to work on tactics with McClaren, whereas Simpson is more of a supervisor/bib and cone man to oversee what we're meant to be doing (fuck knows what that is!) on the training ground. I do think Black's got a difficult job, motivating a bunch of players who have signed on the promise that they'll be moved on to bigger and better if the offer is good enough. It doesn't really work like that in rugby, does it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reefatoon Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 My wife was at a do last week where Black was the speaker. She said he was really good and came across well and was inspiring in what he was saying. God know's what he is doing at the training ground, but our bunch of soppy knackers are not taking anything in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. That's how it works in modern football. Until recently, we've ran with a skeleton crew. Probably because Ashley got burnt having to pay off Allardyce's backroom team, consisting of about 30 people, including 3 personal chefs. http://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/resources/images/4352048/?type=mc&htype=54 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Black may be a good individual or personal motivator and for rugby type men who are real men and will buy into motivational techniques, but footballers are pampered and selfish types who while listening to some old guy talk will be day dreaming of playing Fifa on the xbox. I can imagine someone like him around the place every day will be considered a ear ache with our lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The number of coaches is the least of our worries. Yep if it was the right manager... Agree it is not the major worry, just find it all very odd. Of course football was only invented in 1992, anything pre SKY or premier league never happened. it's a simple game being overly complicated. imo of course, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
timeEd32 Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 It's a simple game, but it's a complicated business. One person being able to handle coaching the team and player recruitment is a relic from a previous era. Of course the manager/head coach should be involved in the process and his style of play should be accounted for in the process. This is one of many areas we fail spectacularly in.
