Post-match interview with Outell

Quoted from jamesgtfc

They never used to be live, it's a relatively new thing. They used to always be recorded in the press portacabin and then uploaded, so they have gone back to what they have done for years. I think it's poor from Artell to wait until the radio broadcast is finished when fans, quite rightly, want an answer from him.

I’m not sure whether he’s done this to wait for the owners to get bored and leave too to avoid the inevitable.

Let’s face it the dressing room would not have been a place of celebration after the match and you can imagine there would have been verbal, if not physical, exchanges for quite sometime so I was not surprised he didn’t get out of there very quickly.

The timing of the interview is not a big deal to me but the content was much more worrying as I heard nothing to give me any confidence. Seems our best option is to have BP shut down for refurbishment and play all our remaining fixtures away from home where, by the sound of it, we are a much better team!!

Most players at Morecombe Harrogate accrington and sutton would love to play in front of a full house every week.

I don't know what to think.  Our away form hasn't been great all season.  Our home form in recent weeks has become diabolical.  During lockdown, Gary Croft, as a former professional with a strong allegiance to the town and club, had quite a lot of interesting things to say about the situation under Ian Holloway.  If there's anyone who doesn't go to home matches but listens to the RH commentaries instead, I'd be keen to know what Crofty's thoughts are on our current situation?

Listen to him at the end of the game on BBC Sounds. He’s not happy, nor is JT for that matter.

Thanks - just done that.  Only a few seconds of it - said he wanted to believe but finding it very difficult.  Aren't we all!!

Croft was scathing yesterday, but stopped short of saying he thinks Artell has lost the dressing room. He refused to comment on that question, which summed it up. Croft also said that the owners need to call Artell in for a meeting and tell him to give them 4 reasons why he should stay.

That's interesting - thanks.  From that, it sounds as if he's more inclined to hold the manager to account than the players and their capabilities.

Only listened as we'd left early (confession!) but there's enough there to suggest that, as a Town fan, he wants rid.

Fancy having to commentate on that on your 50th birthday!

The way he spoke to JT and answered the questions reminded me of the saying ' Deadman Walking '. After all his description of what happen in the dressing room sounded like he's lost it.
