marksandwell Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 As those of you who have the pleasure of sharing my car, will testify when we loose a game like the one at Lewis, I am quite calm and reserved and never offer an opinion........ However I would welcome the opportunity of spending time with both Simon & Craig and offer some minor suggestions to the team. (And I don't mean a quick 5 minutes on the way to a game or at a game, I mean a proper fan to manager talk)... So please treat these observation as Mark Sandwell the 4th Manager, little tweeks to improve our game. Please may I suggest when the team warms up and at half time ALL the players are together, so they can listen to tactics and strategy, share in the heart felt pep talks and share in the "we're not doing what we should be doing". This surely makes for a coherent team, especially if subs are bought on they know the game plan. Could you share the game plan with us, do we have a set game plan, or do we change from game to game. Do players have agreed positions within the squad, and set objectives, like shapes, set pieces. Can we re establish who is in charge on the Pitch, is it the captain, or a n other. Where does encouragement from the team eminent from, are the players under instruction not to talk to each other. When a goal kick is taken are the players not following the game plan and positional objectives as they seem to move in a pack from one side of a pitch to another, rather than sticking to a plan. Do the players know the game plan so well, that is why we hear no instruction or encouragement from the sidelines. A taster of a few minor tweeks this 4th Manager would like to discuss with Simon & Craig at a convenient time. Up the Gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dflman Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I wouldn't be a manager for all the tea in China. We are currently finally clearing out all the stuff that we should have thrown out before we moved here but didn't and it blocks the upstairs landing. Found a copy of a Sunday paper from April 1984 in which they had an interview with Peter Shreeve. He was at a charity function in his role as Tottingham manager and a rotund fellow walked up to him threw a copy of the menu on the table and demanded that he sign it. Not wishing to cause a fuss and tell him to go away he obliged the man who informed he that he was Tottingham's No 1 supporter. When Shreeve said that he was surprised that he had never seen the supporter before he was told that he didn't go to games and hadn't been for ages 'because of the crap way you play" and then proceeded to eulogise about Greaves and Gilzean etc. The man then wandered off and was clearly heard to tell his table party that he had sorted that Shreeve out for sure !

Not sure what that means ....but my dad once said to me "a duck may swim but it's not a fish"...Mind you he was eating a light bulb at the time, whilst whacking his genitals with a hedgehog.

I am Spartacus Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 As my old primary headmaster used to say "Kuwachanganya mtu na maelekezo menghi mno na una mtu kuchanganyikiwa." Quite simple really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
