Rossi the Robin Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 1 minute ago, Denbury Red said: The words RG used when GT said that Nigel is coming back was “That’s what we want”. Does that mean that’s what NP wants?? Or has he said something else? Whilst he is ill he probably doesn’t know 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vague about Cisse. Sounds like a bloke with no knowledge of football trying to talk about it. Mr excuse, Mr bluster, thus far. Agreed. Not that impressed really.

Calculus Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 1 minute ago, Robbored said: So you think RG is being economical with the truth? No, think Gould just doesn't know enough to give a definite answer at this stage. Difficult position for the club. A fit Pearson coming back would be good, but after two bouts of Covd and Long Covid there are no guarantees. Maybe some interim help would be a good idea. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numero Uno Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 1 minute ago, underhanded said: I'm not saying the initial rumours are remotely true. But I'm struggling to grasp what the point of this interview is... He's not saying anything I suppose the point of the interview is to confirm that the Manager has a serious illness that may or may not be a long term thing and that the club want him back in the role but with such an illness this cannot be guaranteed. You would have to be a thick as pigs shit simpleton to go on record and say he's definitely going to be back. Clearly this situation will be ongoing which is why Gould has to be slightly evasive. It's not that hard to understand. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Original OTIB Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 All excuses, what depressing leadership. Says we have a play off squad on paper but can't compete with other clubs on finance. Contradiction there, all wishful thinking. Pen pusher, blagging it. Twentyman nailing him.

I wasn’t convinced by his answers on Rennie and Cisse. Didn’t sound like he fully understood their roles. Not good enough to talk in broad strokes about how we have ‘very good players’ when it’s clear we have holes in the squad. Didn’t sound convincing on Pearson - I appreciate it’s a tricky situation, but his answers won’t help reassure fans.

All he can say for certain is what the clubs position is, it appears that is Pearson to stay. Simply my opinion but if there’s doubt on either side, and I think today has at very least suggested there is uncertainty on some level, id say it’s coming from Pearson’s side.

I’d argue we don’t have a play off challenging squad but he can’t say that can he? We need to improve - we all agree. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
