AshtonRobin21 Posted May 16, 2022 Report Share Posted May 16, 2022 4 players have been told they can leave this summer. I believe he said that all 4 are out of contract at the end of next season. Specifically said Nahki Wells is not one of them. He wants to keep him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshtonRobin21 Posted May 16, 2022 Report Share Posted May 16, 2022 All but announced Mark Sykes deal. Initially stated that he won't talk about deals until they are done. But when pressed, said that Mark Sykes has all the qualities we are looking for. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRoss Posted May 16, 2022 Report Share Posted May 16, 2022 Palmer , Vyner, Bakinson and Moore I reckon. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshtonRobin21 Posted May 16, 2022 Report Share Posted May 16, 2022 No guarantees on Semenyo. Would like to have him, but is expecting interest. Pearson won't stand in his way of playing Prem football. Any deal will be on our terms. "If he does go anywhere, it's going to be expensive for somebody".

Robbored Posted May 16, 2022 Report Share Posted May 16, 2022 Nige is really straight talking guy. No bluff or nonsense, to the point answers reasonable as openly as possible, unlike several previous managers………..…… 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post CheddarReds Posted May 16, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 16, 2022 The phone line broke up a couple times so I might have missed something but here's the bulk of what Nige said: - says Mark Sykes has the qualities he wanted. That is that Sykes has something to prove and is ambitious. - 4 players have been told they aren't in the plans here. Nige said these players need to make a career choice to stay and pick up a wage without game time or go and play. Says the club don't encourage them sitting and picking up a wage. Wells isn't one of them. - says he's slightly behind where he hoped on the 3 year curve. NP said it's been a tough year but that the work that's happened this year will pay dividends. - Said if we are serious about making a cultural change it has to have a lasting effect. Thus, what's important for his role is that we move in the right direction rather than the prem in three years. - he is delighted with how we've developed as an attacking team, but not the defensive side as a team! He doesn't want pats on the back for the progress so far, rather he acknowledges the progress and work left to do. - Nige says it's been satisfying and rewarding for the coaching staff to see the availability of Martin and Weimann this season - Injury length has reduced, availability up. Says Joe Williams has been available for 70% of the year, and that we're much more likely to win or draw with him in the side. Said Joe is a good player and a nutcase who has worked hard to get back to where he is. - Says Semenyo is self-aware, is ambitious, a good listener who is receptive, studies his own game, doesn't waste time and energy when injured and this is why his development has blossomed over the season. Says he has the natural tools, but his finishing is improving and he practices in a professional way. He says he'd be disappointed if we weren't worried about losing him and in time we'll have decisions to make about him. However, it'd have to be the right deal for us and he hopes Semenyo will be here next season. - Nige says an aggressive and tight culture at Luton is a reason for their success. He says this will be achieved when we hit targets of wage bill and people know what their job is and where they sit. Says Luton might drop next year as the players and agents will cash in on a good season and this is the reality of it, so it might not last. However he focuses on us rather than focusing on Luton or anyone else. - Nige bans Sky Sports in his house so he can relax! - he says our identity is being formed now and next year we will be competitive and better than we were this year just gone. - to our fans he says: he will try and keep fans updated in a realistic way but this won't be with speculation and there's a lot of fake news in football. Overall it was nice to hear a manager who's down to earth and direct. If he doesn't want to answer, he is comfortable to say that and explain why, or Re O'Dowda he simply said we thank CO'D but it's time for change. So refreshing to hear that interview following plenty of buzz phrases from Ashton and a lesser extent Johnson. 32 12 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheltons Army Posted May 16, 2022 Report Share Posted May 16, 2022 Did I miss hear him refer to ‘that shit’ (Was it about Sky ?) He makes me laugh - he’s a grumpy sod to interview but you can see where his openness and other attributes gets the right players onboard 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't find anything to disagree with. Thanks Nige. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted May 16, 2022 Report Share Posted May 16, 2022 Get the impression that he does genuinely rate Wells as a player, but simply the form of the front 3 has made it impossible to give him more minutes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
