Quoted from 75
I do apologise Rob. Sorry, it's just the atmosphere on here isn't great at the moment. Nothing to do with you of course but it appears to be an oppressive atmosphere on here at the moment. Still, sorry about that one and UTM. Cracking logo by the way!

Fair point! I personally feel that this could have been handled slightly better in a way that would limit the amount of disruption caused to the club and the team.
For what it's worth I can't help feeling slightly sorry for Rob Scott tonight. If he has done what is alleged then that is completely wrong and appropriate action should be taken and it looks as if that is happening. He obviously has gone about things the wrong way and behaved unprofessionally at times, but I genuinely had the feeling that he wanted the club to do well and worked hard towards it. The way he behaved stemmed from frustration. Frustration that referees have been appalling at times, frustration that maybe fans have got on players backs too easily and frustration at the general negativity around the club. I think his approach to management is dated and not necessarily appropriate in the professional game of today and has contributed to his downfall.
Second part agree with. Rest total XYZ Maters of this sort need investigating and must follow due process.

Good point that maybe I should have addressed. Hopefully what is alleged isn't true, I think it could only be bad for the club if that has happened. One thing for sure is that since their arrival, tactics and formations aside, I've seen players that are professional and that have given their all for the club which is a mentality instilled by the managers. Many have and will draw similarities between a certain ex scouse manager and Rob Scott. This is complete tosh and couldn't be more untrue.
Just what is alleged. Does anyone really know?

His pitchside behaviour, whether with the fans or with the opposing bench, gives the club no credibility at all, and should have been addressed a long time ago.

This is the main point for me. I think he's a good coach, 90% of him ticks all the boxes required for a manager, but that missing 10%...this is what defines him in most peoples eyes. There's always been random speculation since these two joined that player x didn't like him/didn't rate him but in all honesty we have some great players such as Pearson, McKeown, Hearn etc who seem more than happy to extend their contracts under these two when they obviously would have other *possibly* better options away from Town. I still think it's one outburst too many and enough is enough.

Pick up any tabloid and you'll read tittle tattle of players not getting on with managers, it happens at every club. He's a young inexperienced manager he's bound to make mistakes, like Lawsy did before him and went on to have a successful career. Personally I'd rather have a young promising manager any day than someone at the end of his career like AB. If he comes back to work with the team hopefully he'll learn from this.

He was always on a short fuse and brought troubles on himself at every oppotunity but he and Hurst gave us fans something to finally to cheer about, 4th in the table and a day out at Wembley last season. That for me was a good season no matter how bad Scotts management skills were. If he has finished with the club I for one would like to thank him and hopefully it was a big learning curve for him and the club. UTMM
