ARM1968 Posted 5 September Posted 5 September Just now, Foxdiamond said: To be a fly on the wall when Top and Rudkin sat down to discuss Martin getting the job. They must have ignored all red flags about his recent debacle or two. The obsession with the discredited tippy tappy then lose it style. That the fans were dead against him. If we asked a rival to pick the worst coach they would have arrived at Martin. From a wonderful story we are a laughing stock in quick time Not sure they ignored anything. They’re too stupid and too arrogant to follow due diligence. They/Rudkin thinks possession football is the gold standard and Brussel Fartin thinks that’s the way too. The clubs he’s failed at were to blame, not intellectually challenged Bruss. Oh no. The fact we could all see it should make you realise we’re being run by know nothing cnuts. 1
oxtonfox Posted 5 September Posted 5 September (edited) Englebert Humperdink, Daniel Lambert, King Richard III, David Pleat, Ian Holloway, Peter Taylor, yes Peter Taylor I know you were no good here but please please come back and take over this shambolic club. We’ve just taken one hell of a beating. Edited 5 September by oxtonfox

crsleicester Posted 5 September Posted 5 September (edited) Rudkin has been at the club since Mandaric era, he's seen too much. He's still there to not speak about the things he's seen... Essentially, over promoted but has been complicit in everything that has been sketchy. Edited 5 September by crsleicester 1
TheGoldenGod Posted 5 September Posted 5 September Got schooled by a managerial NOVICE today. You'd have to resign out of sheer embarrassment! 1

Bezzanator89 Posted 5 September Posted 5 September The coward had the nerve to high-tail it down the tunnel at full-time and leave his relatively young squad to walk round the pitch to applaud the fans who stayed to the end. Abysmal manager. Sadly there were still those that clapped despite their humiliation. Boggles the mind. 2

SafewayFox Posted 5 September Posted 5 September Without sounding like a broken record, but so many issues with Russell and our transfer window. Even with Lundstram, we have no mobile enforcer who will protect are very mineral back 4. We have zero outlet, I appreciate that we often play with the opposition playing a low block but every game so far, there has been pockets of space to break into, yet because we either owned or then added physically slow players, we are so predictable to play against. Topping it off with too many passengers such as Burns, Reid etc. I haven’t been able to keep up with the posts but has anyone else questioned our complete lack of coaching?
Cincinnati Fox Posted 5 September Posted 5 September Pushing Mike dean for the most arrogant man I have ever met.
fazzyfox Posted 5 September Posted 5 September He mentions / blames a lack of experience in his post match comments. Yeah right, Reid, Souttar, Burns, McCarthy and Thomas were immaculate, if only we had 11 like that we’d be fine and dandy.

So let them experience the wrath of the fans, he can go down the tunnel, hes had the wrath for almost every game he has managed. Hes a scumbag, and a coward. The young lads have neen our best players....burns runs like hes injured, bobby is still bed, but at least hes got all his m8 around him with nice contracts

21st Century Fox Posted 5 September Posted 5 September So he’s started digging the players out after 5 games! He’s really speed-running the inevitable Martin demise! 2
inckley fox Posted 5 September Posted 5 September 22 minutes ago, phoneticerror said: Yet he blamed the younger players today for being inexperienced. He’s a twat. Yeah, I was willing to give him time if things went wrong today, but the scale, the nature of the defeat - and, as you indicate, his staggeringly poor reaction to it - indicate that he perhaps doesn't have the time I thought he had. If I could quantum leap into Top's position tomorrow then I'd fire BR in a heartbeat, because I never wanted him and he's clearly the wrong man for the role long-term (even if he might, at a real push, pull off the promotion short-term). But when you've pursued a manager for so long, placed so much stock in his brand of football at a time when the club needed to build bridges with fans, and you've preferred not to do that but rather to double-down, then you can't fire him after five matches. Even so, his position is increasingly untenable, especially if Top wishes to still attend games and not be massively harangued. And while I thought ten games, or fifteen, was a reasonable point at which to reflect, we have to start asking ourselves at what point things become so bad that they have to act sooner. We may already have reached that, I'm not sure. A loss at Stockport, and one win in six for title favourites, would surely do it if their aim is to sell the club as a PL/FLC club on a 1-2 year sabbatical, as opposed to a struggling, financially unsustainable third tier outfit It shows that, when a club is in such a critical moment, you get far less time for things to work out if you fly in the face of popular opinion. The Martin appointment looks increasingly suicidal. And, when you consider that this appointment feels like a continuation of a long-time obsession for Top (the original KP chairman, who backed Sousa over Pearson, then appointed Sven before his being replaced by his own father, then returning to the role and lumping for Rodgers, Cifuentes, Martin et al) you can only surmise that these are the death throes of Top's leadership. The point at which the whole of football recognises that he's an owner that managers, players, fans understand to be incompatible with any form of success.

Theres no lack of coaching! We are all very clearly seeing well coached martin football, the side to side where our defenders touch the ball more than our midfielders is pretty much exactly how they have been coached. And im pretty sure that after the 50th pass to thomas. Martin gets a hard on! If we actually get to the final 3rd and do nothing to then send the ball back to the keeper, i am pretty sure he leaks a bit.
Popular Post Chelmofox Posted 5 September Popular Post Posted 5 September He said we lost the game in the first 30 mins. 3 Worst players on the pitch were Souttar, Bobby and Burns. Then says its his fault because he took the experienced players off and thats what changed the game. Just contradicting himself. The way he sets up lost us the game. They knew exactly how to exploit it, and because he is tactically inept, he has no idea how to deal with it and just doubles down with the same shit. But yeah bellend, blame the kids, when the experienced lot never step up. 6 2

Under 9/10s coach, a few years later, academy head coach, academy director, fecking head of transfers, virtually gaffer! I'm too tired now, but If you want me to punctuate that tomorrow with years and dates, I will. He precedes Tim Davies's time mate. He's seen all sorts. 1

He's still there to not speak about the things he's seen... Essentially, over promoted but has been complicit in everything that has been sketchy. Rudkin actually joined the club in the 1980s as a youth coach. He therefore predates Mandaric by at least 20 years. Pre-King Power, his sphere of influence remained extremely limited, but his incessant toadying to Vichai and Aiyawatt enabled him to move swiftly onwards and upwards. He doesn't speak to the media (unless it's off the record) because he doesn't wish to draw wider public attention to his existence. And as City's slide towards the National League continues, he's not likely to change that habit any time soon..
Mark 'expert' Lawrenson Posted 5 September Posted 5 September The bloke is a charlatan. A very rich one though! It’s just so desperate, I’m not going to go on about the obvious again. Everyone that knows football knows where our problems lie. Our great club is being destroyed and it’s just heartbreaking to see it happening.
