spudski Posted April 11, 2015 Report Share Posted April 11, 2015 Just watched an interview with Harry. He said he would be interested in working with a young manager at a Club that had a chance of making it to the Prem. For some reason, Lee Johnson and Harry, at City, flashed through my mind. Wants to look for young hungry players apparently....plus pass his knowledge on. Really don't know what i'm saying tbh...as we're not in that position yet, and we have a manager doing well now. But you always have to keep and eye on the future and have options. Interesting idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phileas Fogg Posted April 11, 2015 Report Share Posted April 11, 2015 Sounds like the sort of move we may have made a few years back when signing the likes of David James. We're a different club now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you always have to keep and eye on the future and have options. Interesting idea? We've got a more than adequate manager at the moment. But 2 things firstly look at the financial carnage that Redknapp leaves in his wake at virtually every club he has ever been associated with, SL would never put with his Arthur Daley approach and can you imagine the atmosphere at AG when things go wrong fro Little Lee?. IMO it's ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask any fans at any club that SC was manager of about whether financially they were left hovering over a black hole?, then ask your question.

spudski Posted April 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2015 Interesting thoughts...many thought SC would be awful, but he's flying. Tbh...Keith Burt seems to be the fella finding the players here. Not sure you could accommodate all three. Time, circumstance and the right fit at the right time. We all die, pay tax's and football managers get sacked...so it's no point denying SC will go one day. You have to think about the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You talk about future and Harry in the same breath?, he's 68 FFS. Good to see your original premise has changed from SC not allowing Burt to do his job, to he is the fella finding the players and course you originally didn't rate Burt.

spudski Posted April 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2015 He said he wanted to work in an advisory role with a young manager. Give his experience to a young manager. He knows how to get teams playing in the Championship and Prem. He also worked with Bournemouth in an advisory role recently...look how well they are doing now. I personally think he could be good, for a young manager with ideas but little experience in the Championship and Prem. Joe Jordan will tell you how much knowledge the guy has got.

He was saying Cotterill has coached him into being a wing back. He was unsure how to play the role. Also, when Cotterill left Sunderland he became a student of the game, he took himself to Spain and France to understand different coaching techniques. He's moved Freeman from a winger and coached him into a gifted David Silva type of player. Adan Flint has flourished under Cotterills coaching skills, he's a different player now. Phil Brown was saying on the wireless the other day that Cotterill is regarded as a top coach on the circuit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you not watch the recent Barnsley match? The repeated feigning of injuries by his players was a disgrace and not some thing I ever want to see associated with BCFC.

A silly argument, because the majority of fans didn't want SC here because of his style of play and arrogant attitude. Fans are fickle when it suits.

Hopefully SC will be here for at least the next 5 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
