4froale Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 This is the same team that lost once in the last eight before last weekend ( and that was on penalties) and now some on here are saying get rid of half the squad. Today was as :censored: as I've seen it for a long time but it was just a bad day at the office. Talk about knee jerk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave_Og Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Seems to be a common thought in the face of much evidence that players from two leagues lower will cost peanuts. Yet we expect Liverpool or whoever to pay millions for Tarkowski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueatheart Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Seriously??? I wouldn't piss on the cheating bastard if he was on fire, let alone give him another penny. They should pay a good barrister to send a very strongly worded letter, stating that the silly :censored: is bang to rights on his own video show and if he wants to chance a court case, we will sue him for his transfer fee and other costs. That would probably make the scumbag see some sense! You got me wrong, I was taking about Sidney. Monty has already gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAC0AFC Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 So he hasn't been good but hasn't done anything wrong? Sounds like we've found our new wheelie bin. but he wouldn't be the first one id be dropping from the starting XI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayItLivo Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 (edited) LJ's a bit of a :censored: for coming out saying this to the media. If he wants to get rid it should be sorted out behind the scenes, then you release a statement. But stating your intentions of axing a current member of the playing staff to the media is just down right disrespectful and the sort of thing I'd expect Paulo Di Canio to do. Even Montano was given more respect than this. Edited December 22, 2013 by PlayItLivo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even Montano was given more respect than this. It's an interesting one. I'm uncomfortable with the tweet about Mellor at Brentford. The Sidney things sounds like Sky bugging a private chat between Matt Chambers and LJ. Whether it was for publication or not isn't clear. But sometimes managing a player through the press (or social media) can get a positive reaction. It's a risky strategy though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the sounds of Keegan's tweet, it was something LJ said that would be printed on Monday by the Chron and MEN and was hijacked by another journalist. However, think LJ should have perhaps mentioned it to Smeltz before he said anything to ANY journalists, local or not... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree with this. If my boss thinks I'm :censored: and like him to tell me. And tell me what I heed to do to not be :censored:. I am comfortable with the assessment the Sidney is :censored: though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PBL Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Unless it's something off the pitch, what I've seen of Sidney so far doesn't warrant getting rid. Of course he's nowhere near the finished article, but you wouldn't expect him to be here if he was. He's settling in to a new country and shows real pace & skill in patches - better decision-making and end product will come with experience, game time & confidence. . Can't understand why he's been left out recently, given our problems scoring/creating at home especially. The bench with only Millar and kids on as attacking options is worrying... LJ should be sending Plummer back and working out what's wrong with Rooney before thinking about ditching Sidney already. And not even mentioning it to journalists before he tells the player he;s on the way out. And where was Kusunga yesterday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stargazer Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Can't imagine he is being peddled so soon if it was just his performances .....if so he would not be alone. Eighteen months on his contract for the manager & coaches to extract the potential they saw. Managers need to spend as much as time and energy in finding out about the man , personality , attitude , off field issues , location move .....and not just how good someone is at 'keepy uppey'.

HarryBosch Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Yep. This. Young side in off day shocker eh? The only ray of light for me was Connor Brown's excellent cameo. Good to see he's added trying to score to his game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't know how true that is, a top football manager I knew would always ask before signing a player "What's his vice" ?

PBL Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Just think it'd be a shame to let Sidney go when there's potential there, and he's still our player for another 18 months to get that out of him - doubt he's on a massive wage, and if it hasn't worked out by next season, let him go then. IMO, worth taking a chance unless he wants to go, and nothing really to lose by keeping him. Unless there's something criminal involved. Remember how we let Orfeo Keizersweerd go too soon...
