Tipps69 Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 I've just watched The Fantasy Football Club on Sky, guest on there was Daniel Gabbidon & during the chat with Max & Mers, they asked about everyone's favourite chairman!! A couple of quality tales were..... While Gabbidon was put in caretaker charge, Tan contacted him & told him to instruct David Marshall (Cardiff goalkeeper) to kick the ball long & straight as Tan thought he would be able to score goals!! They were then also instructed to get all the defenders in for a meeting with Tan, where Tan went on to show them a video of one of their defenders scoring a goal from their own half & he wanted them all to be trying this out as they should all be scoring more goals!! Mers' response was one of disbelief when Gabbidon told them!! For those that still have the nerve to have a dig a SL while the current manager situation is ongoing, please be aware as to how lucky we are & how bad things could actually be!! Sorry if this has been shared before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coppello Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Yeah, I've heard something along the lines of that before. Apparently Tan called a meeting to question why the keeper hadn't scored any goals this season. It does really make you question the state of football.

Tipps69 Posted January 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Maybe it was his way of getting wages down, avoid the necessity of a midfield or strikers as he could just get his keeper & defenders to bypass them while shooting!!

Lack of Action Man Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Goalkeepers should take all penalties. That would make it interesing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh1t_ref_again Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 I think Tan was use to the drop back goalie system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Portland Bill Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 I think Tan and the other foreign owners sum up what I hate regarding the Premier league and why these foreign owners are here. They have no knowledge or interest in football, they are here for one reason,money. They are only interested in making money out of the cash cow which is the Premier league.
