andyburton72 reacted to Srg in Retained List
Now I do think we need to improve on Korey for this season, but an attitude problem?! What a load of s****.

Purely seeking clarification on some inconsistencies of course, the doubt has already been cast by Simmo him or herself 🤣
We’re offering Burrows a contract despite him being under contract at Posh….
Smith had a bad attitude after being dropped, I wouldn’t interpret a 62nd minute knee injury in a game in November that kept him out until February as “being dropped”, and before then he’d played an active part in the side as well as coming back into the team after his injury… BUT maybe I’m mistaken in my interpretation 🤷🏻♂️

Smith and Bradley really stepped up towards the end of the season when we needed them most. Nelson and Cash were great for the majority of the season, but I thought Bradley was a colossus over the last month. Similarly, Smith really came into his own around the same time as well. I love that we really carried no one this year. At different times in the season everyone has contributed something.

andyburton72 reacted to LazloW in South Stand...surely its time for proper stand names!
Not sure why they’ve never named them. I think as Pride Park itself doesn’t really have any character still, even after all this time, then if this were to happen it would have to be based on people not geography.
So how about:
* West - Clough Stand (with Taylor suite somewhere)
* East - Pickering Stand
* North - Clowes Stand (probably too modest!)
* South - Hector Stand (or Bloomer, McFarland, or other legend)

I've just watched the highlights on YouTube. They looked identical to the previous 8 times I watched them. Marvellous!

andyburton72 reacted to Rammeister in Paul Warne
Totally agree.
I have also always been a fan of Warne. An honest, decent man, who I suspect is not quite as ‘limited’ in his abilities as some people suspect may be the case in this parish.
His ability to manage people should not be underestimated either. The team spirit he and his team have built at the club appears to be exceptional. I don’t get this ‘he can’t attract players’ stuff either. I think that after money concerns, playing for a decent human being who values you would be high on a lot of people’s lists, in any walk of life including pro football.
I have an ex-pro footballer in my family (Sunderland 300+ appearances, amongst other clubs, and does some agent work) who told me when Warne was appointed that he is a very good manager. I’m very much minded to accept that.
I also don’t get a lot of the criticism around the football that is played. Man City since Haaland arrived have spent a lot of time getting the ball out wide to then cross it in to Haaland. No one seems to be criticising them for it. I like our pace on the wings, and how we stretch the pitch. I love our defence. Of course there will be things that could be improved- but broadly speaking we’ve been a League 1 club that has had to fish in a certain pond. I’m sure we’ll see an evolution in style and staff. Though it needs to be gradual as not to destroy what has already been built, and I’d trust Warne and co to do this.
Success for me, next season would be a mid table finish. Anything better than 10th would be amazing. As always though, I defer to David Clowes and his judgement as he seems to know what he’s doing and is a lot closer to it than I am. Hopefully fans will continue to get behind the manager and team, even in the rough times.
