Exactly - at least two levels of research - pre accepting the job, the managers own research which should be presented during interview perhaps, during job selection process or day one, club provides a detailed report of all players inc. youth, for first team players, pros/cons, considerations, how they like to be managed, relationship with the fanbase.

"Asked if he knew of Ward’s reputation in the stands, van Nistelrooy admitted: “No, I didn’t. What happens in recent years is something I don’t know. You (the media) can explain better and the people within the club can explain better. But still, it must be difficult for him to experience it.”

Don't forget Kevin Pressman too...

@Foxes_Trust Truly embarrassing.

I hope so

If you're KDH you wouldn't (my opinion) want this move. Looks like such a "I failed and I'm back" - you'd go anywhere else (for more money)

Is this serious?

Absolutely. JV looked really up for it first half and could tell gave a sh1t second when others heads went down. McAteer, there is a player there, he's young and just needs to build confidence. Tried some things second half and created a few threatening balls/moments, albeit game was gone

I don't understand some of the comments on FT re Ruud today; limited squad, which is already of low quality (not of his doing obviously), we were outplayed the first half, but this is Newcastle away with something to prove in terms of the club progress/manager/squad criticism they've had, in front of their fans. I actually thought the first 15/20 mins or so we looked pretty dangerous and competed well, clearly an 'away' setup, then with Hamza and Skipp, we lost the midfield once they got figured out. Concede one - ok, see what happens second half at that point. I didn't feel too negative about it then, we knew today would be tough Then Mads needs to come off and it changes everything. Ward shouldn't be anywhere near the team and if anything there must be some leaves that need sweeping or Christmas decs that need putting up at Seagrave (actually, don't want to drop any baubles, they'll shatter to fk). Our defence suddenly turned to soggy tissue paper (I thought VK looked good first half, aggressive), and we all know what happened from there. RVN tried to change things - but the game was gone. I'm sure RVN will have learnt from what he saw today - his post match was balanced but he made a few references to our problems, and I'm hoping next game, by then he's maybe brought in a few more of his own coaches, and made some decisions to take us from the transitory stage of Steve Cooper LCFC to (ugh just that phrase) to RVN LCFC 0.1.

I think he's looked decent at times today. feel like there is a player in there, albeit not a starter, but he just needs some confidence. But I agree, he's not at the level, far from it.

ruud out of his depth?

Hard to position this game as having anything positive, but a silver lining might be that this opens his eyes to the real problems we have and the lack of character in some of the team.

Nothing we didn't know but: Justin: He's been done for a long while, but get him out asap. Train with U21s and offload in Jan. Ward: Why is he anywhere near the bench. Tell him he isn't wanted around the training ground or squad and he needs to find a club. The goals today aren't his fault, but the collapse of the defence as soon as he comes on and the lack of org. is telling. Skipp: Needs to be told in no uncertain terms he needs to show more in all areas or offload him asap. Looks like a bang average championship midfielder. Coady: Seems to be equally focused on his 5 live and media career. Drop, Okoli back in.

Sorry to drag up an old thread - was looking something up and noticed the old season reviews are no longer on youtube @Footballwipe are they hosted anywhere else please? cheers!

Typo*club

My cousin works in the flub Ever heard of Neil Mclennon?

Tomi Petrescu (20 finishing on CM 02/03 03/04)

Just glad to be being linked with any players lately. At least seems (by the sound of it) to be home grown talent, albeit don't know anything about this lad. Could step in in some of the cup games and give Vards a break?

Excellent response. Please update when/if you receive one 👍

I really think that this is a big enough oversight to warrant an explanation from the club and for hopefully local media, charities to apply some pressure. Maybe wishful thinking, but this just angers me more the longer I think about it.

This is abysmal from the club. Again, another clueless decision. This could have been an opportunity to get a really valuable message across 30k people, whereby maybe just one or two people in the crowd consider calling one of those numbers, or seeking some kind of help. Or maybe had a friend who had been quiet that this reminded them to check in on. Instead our joke of a club says 'no', yet will decide to have gambling adverts all over the place. Fck Top (yes I know he won't have made the decision) and the leadership. Union FS well done - incredible work, please keep it up

@Foxes_Trust 👋🏼 Will the trust acknowledge the letter?

I'm sure this George chap is just a troll...but.... "Do you not think he has relatives that come on here?"

Supporters, who have a valid expectation of the club having a connection and understanding with the fanbase.

the bowl? who the fk writes this?
