Aizoon Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 Quite right. Cloughie used to send Peter Taylor out to meet the Press now and again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucksred Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 SOD still in the huff then. Very silly for a pretty sensible and accurate question, specially after throwing away another game....Brickbats go with losing runs, plaudits with winning runs...

Dollymarie Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 Why shouldn't he? Let's face it, the press are only gonna ask more inane questions like "now you've won a game, can you carry this on" He's probably had a skinful of the press this week, so why shouldn't he take a break?

Totally agree, there are people on here hanging on to his every word to try and pick fault. He's caught them out today though!! 1-0 to him I say.

Welcome To The Jungle Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 Ferguson didn't talk to the BBC for ages, maybe SODs boycotting the BBC, or maybe he's just decided we doesn't want to anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You obviously don't listen to many reporters interviews then, as be it RB, five live, talk sport , they virtually all follow the same pattern.

Let's face it, the press are only gonna ask more inane questions like "now you've won a game, can you carry this on" He's probably had a skinful of the press this week, so why shouldn't he take a break? Because it goes with the territory. Because prior to todays game it was our worst run ever. Because any hissy fits just encourage the press pack. Because his post match conferences are so inspirational... Taking a break from conferences, thats fair enough... Being a football manager is very far from being an easy job. If Managers dont like dealing with the press, perhaps like rock stars who dont like being in the public eye, they should consider a different role in life?

Can't blame SO'D in the slightest. Pembo comes across as very refreshing so i think it was a good move by our head coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do the likes of Bucksred STILL try and pick him apart - it's actually quite keyboard warrior-esq. Just cus he's a smarter fella than you. I have always picked his post match conferences apart. He does not come across well at all in any of them. As a manager he should be able to come across in a positive manner. Particularly during a bad run. The Hissy fit made him look very silly. Yes the questions are inane (not stupid, the worse you and your team do, the more hostile, agressive, and repetitive they will become), but however they go with the territory. More than a few fans after that match would have asked a similar one. I would very very much like to listen to his pre match talk to the team. From my background, roles like his, we expect them to lead, inspire, cajole, train and inspire the teams, to be able to explain his tactics, to accept praise and criticism, and to behave in the manner leaders should do. Leadership (Managing) is a skill. Its different from coaching, a lot of whose qualities are similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTFiGO!?! Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 SOD was/is a touchy git because he's won 1 in 22. "Are you still up for the fight?" is bringing his commitment into disrepute. Believe the follow up question was: ''have you any previous experience you can draw from?" It's a well documented fact the bloke only won one in 26 leading to his dismissal at Doncaster. If after 21 bad days at work somebody asked me these sorts of questions, I too would tell them to ####-off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Right Honourable Les Q Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 I could be wrong, but I'm thinking he sent his No 2 out to speak because we won (we WON!!FFS!) While we were not winning, he kept doing it, "fronting up," if you like. Rather than hiding behind someone junior. That is leadership. Nice touch. If I've got it right there. Just need SOd to be nicer to the paying punters, now. And everyone in this city. Well, us lot, anyway. Right, get the Kool & The Gang on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this supporter unhappy that we won, perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
