Clever Fox

He's more likely to be one of the first three, Definitely not Claridge or Speedie who both played at the top.

I did take a quick look at his scoring stats. He's clearly not a prolific scorer of goals as a Striker do we need to know more., remember Daka. Maybe you can tell us more.

This lad Golding has to be the weirdest of our bad signings, Does he even exist. ?

I don't know anything about Cullen but he's clearly not the answer to our Striker problem, So why did we sign him ?.

That change is way to complicated. If an outfield player goes down he's ordered off to the side line, While the game continues with 10 men. Why not just do the same with the Goalkeepers, Let them play on with ten men. I'm pretty sure that would stop the present practice quickly. I'd also like to see Substitutions end on 80 minutes to stop all time wasting and preventing momentum late in games.

Russell reminds me a little of Pearson iand Enzo n that he has a clear agenda of what he wants to do. He already has the players buying into his methods and has them much better prepared and fitter than we've seen in years. That's a big plus in itself for him. He's going to need support from the Fans because weirdly I think it's going to be left to both of us working together to lift the players going forward. With little help from the Club. There's going to be mistakes and ups and down with so many young players coming into the Team, But if we can keep competing while Russel chops and changes and moves us forward then he deserves a real chance. He may hit the ground running at this level but it may be a case where we shine in the 2nd half of the season. Similar to Pearson with the great escape. With a Striker who leads the line and scores Goals, unlike Daka, I think Russell will do well as he seems to know how to handle players, unlike the last few Managers.

I I definitely want to see Hamza go. Here's been here too long now without ever making the step up needed. I also think he'd be a bad influence on the younger players. Thomas I feel has more to give and I think Russell will improve Thomas especially at this level.

This I believe was ultimitely why she resigned. Like any decent CEO, If the Company doesn't listen and take advice onboard then it's time to move on.

She objected to and advised against the wastful spending, especially when we were sailing close to PSR. She was told by Top and Rudkin not to worry they would sell players to avoid psr. They left it too late in the Window to sell someone, Maddison I think it was, But he turned down the move. Which led to PSR. She was highly respected by Pearson and the players, unlike Rudkin. If anyone thinks she was the problem they are deluded.

Don't be so ignorant it's a forum, If you don't give a shit you should stay away from it.

In Short succesful Buisness men.

Because she was the real Brains behind King Power and is highly respected in her field. Her present job is training entrepreneurs for the Irish Government. That should tell you something about her ability.

And a lot of Pace coupled with the ability to get forward and effect games. I think Aluko is going to be a big player before the seasons over and in demand.

A decent performance alround. Some good 1 touch football and good movement to get through Malaga. The energy from the lads was excellent to watch given that the Temeratures was 43 degrees. Some great Goals too especially the build up to the Neale goal. And the finish by Coulibaly. We still need someone to lead the line. Preferably a Tall Physical type who can hold up the Ball and bring the others into play.

I agree. I've seen him play many games in the development sqaud and he was great at huning down the Ball and turning over possession.

True, It was nice to see someone one play the Ball in behind the last man instead of to feet.

To be fair to him he's been very professional since he arrived and that's a big inprovement in itself. At least the squad will be fit to compete when the season starts and he has won the friendlies todate, Unlike that clown Cooper who said results didn't matter.

Where are they getting the figure of 140 million from. It seems like it's just a random figure. We have to be worth more than that.

I've been looking at going to Seville in Oct/ Nov . Any recommendations for area or where to stay good hotels etc near Good shops etc.

Having seen him play I always thought there was something very dodgy about his signing. He offers nothing to any team hoping to be successful.

You should hold of to see if we change Owners and save yourself the grief. Maybe get him one for Christmas instead.

I wouldn't rule out Susan coming back to run the show if it happens. She has a lot of friends and contacts out there from her Duty Free Days.

Anyone know what Valuation is placed on the Club presently. ?

Portugal is always a reasonably safe bet. Over 300 Days of Sunshine each year and only 2.30 hours away. Plenty of options to choose from and prices are still quite good.

It just demonstrates how quickly things change in Football. Hopefully in the next 5 years we may reverse positions again.
