Red Army 75 Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) Good to see some players back. Lot people milling around. Is that Matt Hewlett in the background around the 6 minute mark. Is he on the academy coaching staff Edited October 31, 2023 by Red Army 75 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudolf Hucker Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 See that the word from above has been followed - King not picked for either team in training! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post W-S-M Seagull Posted October 31, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 I got half way through and they gave up watching as almost every clip was of a player that has recently been out injured. That is of no coincidence. Considering the rumours going around that the club blame Pearson for the injuries then it's like they are saying "oh look, Nige has gone and now players are fit again" Also a couple of clips of coaches 'coaching' which seemed to be an indirect dig at Pearson. The reality is that the next two games would have been very winnable for Nige. The injured players are on their way back and that's why they forced the gun when they did because they knew with the injured players returning then Nige would probably begin to meet the expectations set by them, and they couldn't allow that, because they they'd not have been able to get rid. 20 1 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that’s coincidental. Typically these videos have often featured more prominently those returning to training, so nothing new here. Either way, it’s a bit of positivity for us all in what has been a weird few weeks; great to see some of those players returning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, its just a vid of training showing some injured players on their way back to fitness. Obviously. Good to see Vyner, Naismith, and Tanner training and especially good to see Benarous out there as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pure irony of Cisse being included as a coach during those sessions, when he hasn’t coached for the best part of 2 years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly this. The Lansdowns must have been bricking it against Cardiff, hoping Nige would get nothing from the game. Imagine watching your own team and wanting them to lose. I will be there Saturday, and despite the shit show at the moment, I can't imagine wanting anything other than a win. COYR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1960maaan Posted November 1, 2023 Report Share Posted November 1, 2023 Loving the conspiracy theories on here. So the inference is that players and coaches were holding players back so we would struggle ? That being short of first teamers was a ploy by who exactly ? Really interested in the reasoning behind this. Nige and the medical staff he put in place, plus the coaches he put in place and the players , have been hypnotised into thinking 12 players were injured when they were fine? That now , with Pearson gone , Jon snapped his fingers ( as it says in his online "hypnotism for Idiots" course) and they are all suddenly fit ? Pearson said most of the injuries were contact and players wouldn't be out too long. In the Ipswich preview he said Vyner was close and a couple of others would be looked at. I would hope Vyner , Wells and maybe one or two others could at least make the bench. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks to me that Naismith, Vyner, and Tanner could be available which is very good news - strengthens the defence enormously. And, as I said yesterday, really good to see Benarous out there. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Controversial but Tanner being fit might be the best news of all. Means Sykes plays where he is most effective. Having said that, one of Vyner or Naismith back alongside Dickie greatly strengthens us too. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be interesting to see if both Vyner and Naismith are available which one Curtis selects (With Tinnions "help" no doubt). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sykes in his normal role , as you say, is a big one. That also allows TGH to stay in MF with Knight , I thought they started to look good Vs Cardiff. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting they wanted him to bring in free agents, even though injured players were getting close to return. It definitely wasn't a case of 'make a demand we know he'll refuse'. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think anyone has suggested any injury conspiracy theories, or anything along the lines of your active imagination there...you seem to be the one jumping to conclusions IMO.....?! More that on Sunday NP and DR were fired, in part due to injuries and a day or so later, 4 key players (who DR would have got/been getting back to fitness) and NP would soon have at his disposal - are back in training. They would have known that and therefore not giving NP a chance to see how we get on with a few less injuries - given with a fuller squad we've been in/within touching distance of the play offs (the clubs expectation, as we've been told...) - would have seemed fair. I think IMO people are more interested in the continued 'contradictions' coming out of the hierarchy of the club.

1960maaan Posted November 1, 2023 Report Share Posted November 1, 2023 This is a great sight to see. I don't know how far he will go, or even if he will have an impact on the team this year, but man I hope he smashes it the rest of the season. Be great to see Benarous getting a run. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
