NVMal Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 Does anyone know who the bad apple in the group was that Andy Stockhausen refers to in his latest blog? It's obviously someone who is no longer with us , but no clues given as to exactly who. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cottsciderarmy Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 Neil Kilkenny. My daughter asked for his autograph when he wasn't in the team one day and he just grabbed her program and signed it and shoved it back at her and didn't even acknowledge her. Although she was happy he signed it, I muttered to him, a bit of politeness to young fans wouldn't go amiss. He looked at me and said well I'm hardly gonna be happy about not getting in a (swear word used) team when I shouldn't even be playing at this level. I just went Oh Okay. The guy clearly thought he was bigger than the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
And Its Smith Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 People on twitter actually asking him to reveal the player. How clueless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All that pointing and moaning during games as well as being miserable in interviews. Called me a clown on twitter once for doubting his footballing ability!

alandicks Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 Louis Carey. Should have gone a long time before he did. Great player for the club but in my opinion had a big influence in the changing room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcusX Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 Louis Carey. Should have gone a long time before he did. Great player for the club but in my opinion had a big influence in the changing room. I personally can't imagine Louis ever wanting us to lose so he could get back in. Very happy to read the comments by Karleigh, it's good to have our team spirit back. However, I can't help but think it's easier to be upbeat about being left out of a team when your top of the league and flying. Not so easy to be happy with being left out, if the players keeping you out aren't performing (in your opinion) which was probably Killkenny's gripe if above quote is true.

TNBT Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 Whoever it was I'm glad they're not with us anymore as seems we have a very tight group players all with the aim of getting us promoted. It's so strange feeling so optimistic come match day, only thing that I don't like is waiting for our first loss which has to come at some point so please let it be when others around us slip up at the same time & hopefully this great team spirit we seem to have will have us bounce back with vengeance & solid team performance with a clean sheet.

extonsred Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 This is not surprising to most supporters as there was no logic to quite how bad we were. Need to recognise what previous managers had to cope with and until contracts came to and end there was little they could do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 I know at first hand that Flapper Phillips was a bad apple in the changing room and was even worse when he got dropped for Basso. That's why he was let go. I also know that Carey was a disruptive influence when things weren't going his way,despite being club captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidered abroad Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 This is why the art of management in any walk of life is not about the sales plan or the formation but about taking care of everyone's dreams, aspirations, fears and reservations. And why in every type of industry, it is rare for the star striker/salesman/accountant to be the best choice as manager. That is why GJ was and SC is apparently better than Millen, McInnes, Tinnion and plenty more in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pongo88 Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 It would be interesting to know who this person is but I prefer to concentrate on the positives in the article. It says a lot of good things about the current players and the manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
