Is that just a shot in the dark AB.?

 

Boom Boom

Easy to say after the event though Michael.

Confused in gloucester here

 

The interview in which he seemed` to 'hesitate' slightly and used the wording 'for the time being' when asked about his situation at carlshalton by a paxmanesque wellsie was last saturday-before he left.

 

 

 

Never mind .

[Broadstairs Dave]

Confused .co.uk here What?

[lion]

If you know Pridmore tell him to get his CV in to MFC before the rush. Hope he can "man mnanage" as good at 2.45 pm on a saturday as good as he can at 5 pm.

[Twist&Shout]

Lion you talk as if O'Connell is leaving?!

 

 

[Twist&Shout]

Lion I see what you mean now! He has gone!

[Andy .]

Iain leaving , don`t no why its being mentioned as i think he has done a great job since he arrived . He has taken on a club that has finished in the relegeted end of the table for the last 2 seasons . The club itself has been in meltdown for the past 7 yrs with on going problems with the ground still causing a problem . Slowly but shawly i think that we pushing for a playoff spot it won`t be this season and im not sure if it will be next but i really yhink we will be pushing for playoffs or even winning the league in 2yrs time . it may seem along way off 2 yrs but as we all know a season in football goes just like that . With the likes of Hill , clokey , Ball , Wilson , Welford , and Bradbrook in the squad he has to replace and bulid around these guys and to get these lads in in his 1st full season is a great start . We have seen two many managers go through the doors of Hartsdown over the past few yrs and now i think if we stick with Iain then things will settle the squad will improve no end and we will get to where we want to be .

Valid points andy but o'connell has been sacked

I reckon lion is the best man for the job. Seriously.

I never mentioned I was good at 'man management' numpty - I said IOC wasn't

On a serious note, I'm surprised it happened now, I honestly thought his contract wouldn't be renewed at the end of the season but I didn't see that one coming. Who will be in charge for the Hendon match?

My point being, Pridmore, You seem to be very quick to comment at 5pm after games have finished, I think that is easy to do. You were always having a poke at IOC, thats easy to do late on a saturday. Try picking teams at 1pm, i dont think you would be so clever,

I think you'll find I 'picked' my selection for last Saturdays game around 5 days before the match and I make the majority of my comments before and then back them up after the game.

 

Also throughout the match I make observations IOC has obviously missed - as I'm sure many pople do at a game (make observations that is). And if he was only picking his side at 1pm he was worse than I thought - no wonder the players looked lost on the pitch half the time!

As Mr Pridmore seems incapable of understanding what people are trying to say to him, i will let all of you know some things i was not prepared to until now. I was a pro in the 60s and 70s for a couple of london clubs, not big time, but not bad, (QPR & Charlton). After retiring I worked for several pro clubs as a coach and over the years, as things changed obtained coaching badges (Higher leval than Pridmore). I retired some years ago from Pro football, but still worked for a conferance club for a couple of years, finaly fully retiring a couple of years ago and moving to Broadstairs. I then started watching and enjoying local football. Now, my point is this, Pridmore seems a bit to keen to comment on things he cannot possible be truly informed over, example, he has, in the past commemted on IOCs man management skills, how could Pridmore possibly know what any managers skills are, is he in the dressing room before games or at half or full time, is he on the bus, going to away games, i dont think so. Lets move on to team selection, i do agree everyone has a right to an opinion, but when your opinion only consists of slating a manager without knowing the facts is simply stupid, is pridmore at every training session, does he know who is training well, does he know who has a knock, who has flu or even problems at home, I dont think so. You DO NOT need to be that bright to gain football coaching badges, as demonstated by me, most fans of football, with the time and effort could get them. I also have a driving licence, but that does not make me a F1 racing driver, a TV licence but I am not an electronics engineer, take my point, I do, however think that Mr Pridmore has not spent a lot of time around a real football club or footballers, if he had he would understand how things work at every level of the game. If he thinks demeaning someone who works very hard for this small football club for very little money is clever, more fool him. Thats not football banter, thats insulting, I think Mr Pridmore owes Mr Winch a big SORRY.

What makes you such an expert in knowing that IOC "OBVIOUSLY MISSED" Things.

I simply go back to Butlers interview with wellsie-and the 'regret' expressed at his depature from MFC.

 

I wonder whether that is from both sides.

 

I suspect i am in a minority of one-and obviously do not know the background to his departure-but would certainly welcome MB back at MFC where fromthe interview he seems to feel there is unfinished business

Micheal I respect "most" of your posts but on this one I can say with some confidence that MBs departure was of his doing and probably not likely to be repeated. His .... leaving was of his own engineering and would be fair to say that even HE wouldnt dream of returning

What a load of suggestive clap trap most of this post is as well as some clear untruths (There was no higher licence until 91 or 92 which was when the FA brought in the staff licence, which was basically a level if you wanted to work with the national team - Muppet (I could go on but won't)) in there, from someone with obvious issues where I've clearly touched a nerve of truth for pity's sake! I could rip this apart piece by piece but I simply haven't got the time to do so as I'm looking at the clock and it's 10 to seven in the morning and I have to be out in 10 minutes and practically every minute up until late Sunday night (when I get back home) is accounted for. Oh, and I don't owe Winch an apology as another post took care of the Winch issue, which you would have known if you actually bothered your ass to read other threads and posts before posting. Also just seen that bit, suggesting I've not been around a real football club or footballers is so laughable, in fact were I not chuckling to myself as I type I would suggest that is such an arrogant and ridiculous thing to say as you obviously haven't read any of some earlier posts or know sweet FA about me. Come and speak to me like an adult (others have made similar comments to me but haven't been the subject of your attentions) and I may then dignify you with a proper answer. I don't think a forun is the right place for you, you obviously have no concept of what one is and how it works old bean.

You may like to stand with me during a game so you can see first hand. I'm not saying I'm an expert but the things IOC missed were not exactly rocket science fr goodness sake.
