superzak Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Does it really matter who the bad eggs are...what does matter is the fact that a man with so much business acumen listens too them. If you employ a manager then back him he should be the only one with the owners ear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that's saying there's a rift in the dressing room. Funny that the journalists never name the players when writing these stories, any idea why that is?

The forum does this straight after every game with someone being made a scapegoat for another poor performance There's a difference between posting a player isn't good enough or is underperforming, and suggesting he's a troublemaker or bad influence. Either way, we'd rather not give lawyers any grounds to sue due to defamation of character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitley ram Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 There's a couple of angles which Pat Murphy has been pursuing on this. Out of control player power and MM the micro manager. There is possibly some truth in the first and the evidence certainly backs up the second! If the players have gone to MM to complain about SM then they can be accused of being disloyal. However they may have had a point. There can be no excuse for not giving 100% on the pitch, but if SM had lost their confidence and was unable to get them to gel into a unit (Friday certainly looked like that) then maybe blindly carrying on following his instructions wasn't something they were prepared to do. im not defending their alleged behaviour, but it is interesting that lots of the negative reaction to the sacking is more about the manner and timing than shock that it happened to SM. His stock after Newcastle was low enough. It is even lower now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearl Ram Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 If McClaren's stock is low, what about ours as a club ? What's being said about the player power and the owner within the game itself ? It wouldn't surprise me if McClaren's stock is slightly higher than our club's tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think he told them not to run about? Oh hang on, yeah he told Butters to pass forwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
