Because clearly a massive influence in style and composition of game play is had when a head coach of a national team gets a week here and there and then a couple of weeks before each tournament, look at NZ and Oz both of whom get sooooo much more time with their guys before tournies..

At the end of the day Steve Mac may not be the answer and frankly i am unsure who would be right now but to compare Domestic football with international is just daft ...

i would also say there is an argument to say Steve Mac could also be too close to our senior players and so the door revolves again ..
We are viewed as the graveyard of coaches so no one will take that hot seat unless payed a wedge.... why would they>

and No smith is not the answer, he may be experienced but way past his sell by date now IMO alone mind...

Arthur Bunting lol (he would do a better job than Radford is now). Wow those were the days, wish we could have them back again. Its all about money now, not passion. Big difference

your not wrong... however that is SL for you, its a business now unfortunately more than anything else
If it was about passion then the owner will act...
I think he still might but oh fkkk i dont know its a damn mess

I am really disappointed in Pearson I thought he would be better than this and have respect for the fans. He dosent seem to be bothered anymore. If he was as passionate as what he says he would be sorting this team and coaching staff out now.

He is a businessman, he hurts when his pockets squeeze.....
He has no love for the club but he knows a sleeping giant when he sees one... i hope he can see the issues and is already sounding people out
He is savvy enough to know he needs advice...

where is bomber now lol

Sorry but this always makes me laugh. Sleeping giant my rse,we are a club who should be in a higher position ,but arn`t. Due to being inefectual,not asleep.

Pathetic post! "Respect for the fans"? He has got more important things to sort out out. Why don't you try and support your team! A bit of confident and encouragement goes a long way!

Firstly you don't seem to understand what hypocrisy means? I gather that because you think I've said some things in retaliation that you think I'm a hypocrit right? Hypocrisy is not simply failing to practice those virtues that one preaches...but whatever

Secondly, you obviously cannot see that in each and every response I've made it is to sling mud back at those that have cussed at me, said I'm talking BS, made inflammatory posts specifically naming me all because I voiced an opinion.
Disagree with me, make a point I don't agree with, expose an obvious failing in my arguement regarding a point I'm making..all fine. What isn't acceptable is the amount of personal jibes (even in threads I haven't conbtributed to!) deliberate berating etc especially when it is the same posters over and over again.

If you or anyone else thinks I'm going to sit back and just accept such behaviour (in the absence of any moderation process) without so much as a wimper you're sadly mistaken, that might seem pathetic but I'm not the one to start slinging the mud in the first instance, I never have AFAIK. I haven't gone out of my way to start naming individual forum members specifically to inflame or have a sly dig at them, making snide comments and the like just because I disgreed with what was said, I've done it as a direct response to their first comments.
So no I'm not being hypocritical in any way shape or form.

Why is "respect for the fans" pathetic? Any business which disregards its paying customers (in this case fans) or takes them for granted is ultimately doomed.
