  1. Can apply that at any level.
  2. Your mistake is assuming they're paid that much.
  3. Worth pointing out he's also set piece coach (as I understand it?) And that we're in the top half of the league from goals from set pieces.
  4. Haven't said I agree with it - just I can see the rationale.
  5. Think people are suspect as when NP was appointed we didn't see the on rush of new users, all of whom were critical of NP and praising the owners that we're seeing now. What was more suspect was the fact a lot of the new posters joined literally the day before he was ultimately sacked. Could be circumstantial but I can see others PoV.
  6. Fevs. With Jon Dolman as assistant. There'd be handbags on the sideline every match - would be more entertaining than the football. Have a mental picture of Fevs launching a full water bottle in Dolman's plums. Glorious.
  7. Worth pointing out that Manning took his coaching qualifications while at West Ham, coached their U23s as well - so will have the experience of much better facilities than ours albeit not as a manager.
  8. You say that as if we didn't make that mistake with LJ. Or Holden. Or Millen. Or Tinnion.
  9. There isn't if there's no net cast.
  10. Depends on what kind of link the German element is I suppose. Uwe Rosler springs to mind - at Aarhus (AGF) in Denmark.
  11. ....? Can I ask why? His Salzburg team (pre Leeds) were one of the best teams I've seen live (granted it was 2021 against Wien), with regards to entertainment.
  12. Assume is a free agent due to time scales. Likely his own coaching team if Fleming has been released. High press and develops players. Couldnt be Jesse Marsch, could it? JL said how far off the betting market was in his interview - I haven't seen JM in any.

    TGH

    I'm still mixed. Feel both can be guilty at times of 'hiding' when we're in possession, i.e. static at times. Knighty more so, especially when on the ball - has a habit of playing head down a bit too much. Led to a couple of times where we struggled to break the lines, especially when both at times left James isolated and Dickie and Vyner had issues finding them on the angles. Goal output still a slight concern. Hopefully both may improve and kick on with more games and training. To be fair to both however, thought Conway and Weimann were poor today - latter unfortunately looks like age, lacking a yard of pace, and a lack of confidence is catching up to him.
  14. I think the biggest difference is that Max would look for a quick release - people forget that Bents rarely did so, as he usually would fail to spot the run, and he'd never kick it into the channels. Secondly, Max with the cross today and the aerial claims - whereas Bents would stay glued to his line. Its the one area of Max's game which has improved massively since becoming number one.
  15. Disagree. What we are seeing on the pitch was a direct result of what our investment warranted. We lost our £25m lynchpin who broke lines fanatically from deep numerous times and replaced him with (no disrespect to TGH) a £900k replacement who a divisional rival didn't mind losing. The way we've played this season in struggling to break teams down is directly a result of NP's 'without Scott' plan being rescinded by upper management and nothing spent. Apparently the latter disagreed with further recruitment. Stupid but here we are.
  16. By logic on here I assume so.
  17. What worries me the most - where the **** has Terry come from. Half the squads birds will be shagged within a month.
  18. The only thing I'll give Marshall credit for. Apparently - at least according to my very minor understanding - he was the only one warning SL over MA/LJ's overspending - hence promoted to CFO.

    Nige

    To hold that as a point against Nige considering the penny pinching that's gone on is outstanding. They should have backed him after the Scott sale. We've covered the issue with loans before. As for free agents - would take a month to get up to speed at least by which time it's almost Jan anyway. Waste of time and money. It didn't work out with Klose, not Williams, Bates, McManus, Mariappa and countless others before. It's poor planning and negligent strategic decision making. End of story. Same as 'moving him on' without a replacement lined up. Brum had a plan (a shite one, but a plan nonetheless) - here it's just endless bluster and no physical evidence.
  20. Part of the football side was culture - he couldn't manage the bloated squad.
  21. If it's one of these and/or Wade, I think that would be it for me.
  22. Because the leadership is useless.
  23. This is what annoys me most.
