LoucasX Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Sad to see Neil leave the club. He is a man of huge integrity. BigDogCol, Karen Browne and Monkey8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhodes Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 The article quotes a clearly disappointed Roger Merton as saying ‘he has quite a young family and feels that he wants to spend more time with his children’, why did Conner commit to the job then as he must have known what was involved having coached the reserve side for two seasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhodes Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Yes, but you try not to let people down in the process, reading between the lines of the press article Roger is clearly disappointed isn't he Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey8 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Not picking out your comment Mr Rhodes but a lot of stuff is written on here and no one really knows the truth... I think this might be the case on this one. We move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhodes Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 We move on. Monkey8 - It's easy to say 'we move on' but Roger's scrabbling around now for a new Manager in only the first six weeks of a new campaign, that's hardly ideal is it.

Monkey8 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Part and parcel though isn't is...Roger is a big lad now he will get it sorted. This isn't the first time it's happened and it won't be the last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhodes Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Part and parcel though isn't is.. Monkey8 - It's easy to say it's 'part and parcel' isn't it but, like I said, poor Roger is left scrabbling around for a new Manager in only the first six weeks of a new season, that's not ideal is it.

stingray Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Yes, we heard you the first time. Managers come and go at all points of the season and as Monkey says, it's happened before and will no doubt happen again. Now what about that report from Edgware's game you promised us?

Rhodes Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Don't believe everything you read Clifford. I never believe these sort of statements anyway such as 'wanting to spend more time at home’, I’ve heard it too many times before and that’s never the real reason for a Manager or Coach leaving a Club in the lurch as Neil Conner has done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhodes Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Winslow Boy - What on earth has that got to do with this thread, my point was why didn't Neil Conner sever ties at Lowfield in the close season to give Hoddesdon the opportunity and a fighting chance to find a new Manager prior to the new campaign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
