Wish some of our current squad would go missing after their continuous bad performances!!!


Quite a few of them have been missing over the last few games!

The man talks rubbish. He recently said of football management. "How hard can it be? It is not rocket science is it?""
I hope we never see him in charge of our team. He can come and do an after dinner talk to raise some money for us if he likes. That would be entertaining.

Sol Campbell is too detached from the reality of fourth division football in the north. If he’d had a few years’ coaching experience at an academy or managed another club then I’d feel better about it.

But what we need now is someone who has all the qualities you expect a competent manager to have AND an ability to create and build on a philosophy that will survive for years to come (preferably incorporating the local community) so we can start believing in some of our players again.

I have serious reservations that Sol can do any of that.

How hard is it though, really?

Motivate your players.

Keep free from injuries that would accrue under poor training techniques.

Win games from the type of football you, as a manager, wnat to see played.

As far as I can see it's not that difficult. I reckon I could have Manchester City where they are at the moment given everything at their disposal. All you need to do to the above scenario is add "buy the best players in the world"

Although, to be fair, Slade never seemed to get to grips with it.



No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

Quoted from Mighty_Mariner


“It’s up to them now,” Campbell said. “They are probably talking to other people, naturally.

“And if they give it to me, I’ll be ecstatic; if they give it to someone (else) I’ll be over the moon.


I don't understand this bit, he'd be over the moon if he didn't get the job? Is this a direct quote?

I didn't understand that bit either BP! I can only assume he means he'd be over the moon for whoever got it. It is a weird quote though.

I took it directly from the telegraph website so kay have been lost in translation somehow.

Who's Muhammed and what are his coaching credentials? Has he has success at this level?
