Red-Robbo Posted February 6, 2021 Report Share Posted February 6, 2021 Just now, Sturny said: Sack Holden and I still don’t have much faith Ashton will find the correct replacement. TBH it needs an entirely different club structure - and that includes our two-man board. BUT that isn't going to happen in February. Right now I'll settle for sacking Holden and putting in someone with a bit more of tactical vision. Like Sunday League Dave from the Dog & Duck FC.

It's some of the most amateurish decision making I've ever seen. In all seriousness, do any of our coaching staff have leadership qualities? They all come across as pretenders. Would I be listening and respecting what they had to say as a player? Everything comes across as amateurish...I look at our three coaches and all I get in my head is Only Fools and Horses. All three of them have to go imo. I can forgive results...but our football is the worst I've seen on a consistent basis for a long time. The reality is, fans are sick to death of the world we are living in, they look for a bit of respite from their team...not to come away like you want to slash your wrists after most games. In all seriousness, this will hit the club in the pocket, fans will not return in numbers if this sham continues. I keep thinking of Kalas's comments after Huddersfield. Seemed a dig at the coaching to me, though I seem to be alone in that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can warm to people, respect people, feel peoples presence...listen to them and think ' these people know what they are talking about'. Demand respect...showing leadership qualities. These three don't have that...they don't stand out, they aren't leaders. They are just grey. The sort of people you'd walk past and not even notice. No disrespect to them...that's just how they are, but you don't want that leading your Club. You need leaders. They aren't. It's a cross between Del Boy and Froda coaching. A bunch of dull middle managers in a small company promoted to the level of their own incompetence is what I see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sturny Posted February 6, 2021 Report Share Posted February 6, 2021 I wonder if he could be sacked today. Is there much use in waiting the next couple of games vs top 6 teams which we are yet to achieve a win against? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually feel for them. They've been offered the jobs, and they are now showing their credentials. Both in personality, leadership, respect, presence and decision making. They are just very grey and are not engaging or charesmatic. They don't instill you with confidence. As a player, with experience, would you be thinking Wtf with some of their decisions? Even as fans we are looking on at dismay. It's the worst I've seen in a very long time. I can't help but think the people that employed them have personal agendas to protect their own positions.

You’re correct - because none of the good managers out there would want to work under the current set up. That became clear in the summer when, after 6 weeks of negotiations, the best person City could agree terms with was Holden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
