To me it will be a huge turning point in the History of this club over the next decade. A huge c*** up similar to the club choosing Pulis over Moyes. It has set this club back years And it appears that it’s another decision needed to move us forward in the plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fpcity Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 Could any of the players step in assisting the coaching? Only 1 I could think of is Danny Simpson, maybe he was signed with one eye on that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how I'm looking at it anyway I think this season is exactly that a test run not just for coaching staff but players to,COVID played a massive part last year he will get it right just needs to finish the jigsaw and put those pieces in place.

As is often the case with these things it's a secondhand report from a period many years ago... Why did your father do that? Was he concerned about not being accepted in a B&B in Weston-super-Mare?

Nice guy I'm sure.. but he posts (unironic) Instagram stories featuring Tom Zanetti. That tells you everything you need to know really. Even the shoes in this picture are a total giveaway !!

Merrick's Marvels Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) On 25/10/2021 at 23:32, Port Said Red said: It's before me time so @cidered abroad may have a fuller story, but I seem to remember from the HD book that it was to do with summer pay, which I think HD had promised would remain the same as winter pay? Doherty tried to go back on that agreement. There was also some issues around the Irish players he signed and sectarianism? It's in the Atyeo biography. A lot went pear shaped that season, including a split in the dressing room. There are suggestions that, amongst other things, religion may have been a factor but from the ouside looking in and from a distance of 60 odd years, a simple: The established players .v. The manager's new signings seems more likely. Doherty was an unorthodox manager and it's fair to say the established players didn't take to some of his unusual methods (I have that from one of the established players in that dressing room at the time).

Because things aren't going to plan, our direction of travel is downward (or stalled if you're feeling generous), there's no money to spend, the manager isn't having the impact he hoped for and things are slowly getting desperate, so this is a final roll of the dice in an attempt to stave off a relegation dogfight.

The fact that no replacement is being sought combined with Micky Bell's addition to the academy on a full time basis would indicate its not just a short thing, if Micky was just filling in there would be no need to announce it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted October 28, 2021 Report Share Posted October 28, 2021 There has been some restructuring of the non playing/ non coaching staff regarding the first team this week too. People who work on the logistics at the HPC and matchday home and away. I don’t think anyone has left but people have been shuffled around or given new titles. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Isewater Posted October 28, 2021 Report Share Posted October 28, 2021 The big disappointment with these two guys was the complete lack of quality loans for the England players they knew and worked with. Many of us thought that we’d get one or two ‘ Tammy ‘ type loans in. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hampshire reds Posted October 28, 2021 Report Share Posted October 28, 2021 I wish Paul and Keith well for the future. I hope Paul is recovering well from his illness. We need a top coach to come in to help this team. I keep reading about a plan. Sorry if i have missed something as i dont see any sign of a plan. At the moment we are in free fall. I dont get why people have so much faith in Nige. Correct me if i have this wrong but we have one 6 games since he has been here the first win paul and Keith were in charge and the Peterborough win he was at home. I dont want to be negative but facts are facts. For me when Dean left the coaches should have gone also. I get nige came into a mess but 17 home games without a win. That is dreadful. So can someone tell me what is the plan. Hopefully Paul and Keith get jobs soon as both come over as a couple of nice guys. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if you don't mean to be negative you are failing badly. You turn a topic about two coaches leaving in to your usual anti Pearson rant. Broken records come to mind. 7 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
