  1. In the case of the u18s yes it is.
  2. So put out some non commital holding statement at least then people would know that the club care and have the player in their minds, at the moment it's like he doesn't exist. To a lesser extent how about some news about Josh Sims? The Club are frankly hopeless at supporter relations, but then they are hopeless at just about e erything else at the moment so we shouldn't be surprised.
  3. Whoare these players that have caused trouble with every manager sine Koeman? There aren't too many. JWP, Long, Bertrand, Yoshida, Romeu? At least 3 of those wouldn't say boo to a goose. Really struggle to imagine Poster Boy kicking up a fuss. It's ********, the problem is Ralph can't manage. Great bloke, looked the figs danglies last season but has been found out. Not helped by our worse then fe King useless owners of course.
  4. He didn't. Most of the season he played in a back 3 (with Turnbull). He started as a DM 11 times altogether.
  5. I'll criti ise early Leavers all I want, thank you. I'll also call you a bell end, because that's what you clearly are.
  6. Looks like you left before the end of the game as well, stayed to support your team. Think I would have been well ****ed off yesterday if I was Cedric.
  7. Only at a lower level. Rohl's arrival certainly moved Ralph on to another level.
  8. It was probably in good faith, she was totally inexperienced in business, let alone football business, she was advised by equally useless people such as Krueger and she made a diabolical bad decision. Its still her fault though, ignorance/inexperience is no excuse. Sadly it happens frequently when someone unexpectedly inherits a business.
  9. No she didn't. Her inheritance only came through when we were in the PL. That's when she had the power to kick Cortese out. Before then the Club was effectively in trust while complex Swiss probate process was worked through. She invested nothing while we were in League One or the Champ.
  10. No she didn't. Her inheritance only came through when we were in the PL. That's when she had the power to kick the poison dwarf out
  11. Not sure, but anyway if they were sensible they'd there for reduced wages, if it would restart their careers. That's what sensible people would do.
  12. Sure is, he did not have a successful loan at Inter. It was a bloody disaster from his POV, got very frustrated at the lack of games,even though he wanted to stay there.
  13. Will they all have their personalised mattress and bed linen when they are away from home again?
  14. 2 days to change a picture, I know the Club is **** poor these days but that's a 5 minute job, even if you don't know what you're doing. Perhaps they are having trouble with Mullins bio, trying to cover up his Skate-nish ?
  15. Still can't get any of the teams information (any team) on OS, either on the desktop or mobile site, just get "Sorry! Something has gone wrong." Dead right it has, and not just with the web site.
  16. No mention in the report about who was the Manager/Coach tonight.
  17. Nope, Ward Prowse was going for him then pulled up. Mind you I think the Sky highlights showed Stephens caused the mistake that led to the ball being played wide for the cross,doesn't show on the YouTube highlights. Mccarthy was actually at fault for both goals, needs to learn to keep his legs together.
  18. He was still at Watford yesterday, their u23s beat Ipswich in Professional Develpment League South game. Apparently doing quite well, at that level (the level below the PL2 league).
  19. This, one if the things I detest about out Club these days.
  20. The Skate? Thought he was still at Watford.
  21. U21s preview (Coventry away tonight) on OS, no mention of the the coach. Also OS page about "teams" where players and staff are listed has been unavailable for a couple of days now. Surely just removing Jaidi for one page doesn't necessitate this.
  22. To be fair it was more likely to be our then goalkeeper coach, Dave 'how's my hair' Watson. Hopefully Sparks is sorting him out.
  23. Tend to agree with you actually, just think Doddsy and Williams were poor example. Think things are changing a bit, possibly. Andrew Sparkes, for instance, highly regarded goalkeeper coach brought in, not many internal appointments since Jaidi, Butterfield was an ex player but he joined as coach from Exeter. Will be interesting to see who they bring in to replace Jaidi, if indeed he has been sacked. No mention of it in Monday briefing from the Club (but that's no surprise), and we do have a game tomorrow in the Leasing.com trophy at Coventry.
  24. Williams was never a Dave Jones plodder, he joined with Strachan and didn't stay long. Dodd admittedly played under Jones, but he played under a lot of other coaches as well, some good (Ball, Merrington, Hoddle/Gorman, Strachan) and some awful (Branfoot), gaining a lot of experience both good and bad under a variety of managers, really don't think he was a particularly bad appoinment given our position at the time.
  25. Doddsy and Williams were appointed when we (the 1st team) were in League One, not sure that attracting the best in the world coaches was too likely to have worked at that stage. Thing is, bringing in ex players who want to move into management/coaching is a fairly standard approach by many clubs. Where else do you get started? Not everyone gets the luxury of joining a 1st team without any experience like Gerrard or Lampard. Jaidi is quite highly thought of in coaching terms, was certainly under consideration for the Tunisian national team last season. I suspect if he has been sacked (and at the moment the only source is Manji) then its not based on results, reckon there is something else going on.
