Quote ="anarkik"I noticed at the end of the piece on Scruton in the T&A he mentions that “Steve is working every hour under the sun and the coaching staff are giving us every chance of getting the results. It’s up to us to do the business.”
I imagine that's the message that we're supposed to hear from HQ, but TBH if he is working every hour I wonder what he's doing, because we've had the same problems every season and the same quotes from players/Duffy in the T&A. I'm not sure hard work on his behalf is the answer, unless he's not being doing anything for the last three seasons, which is obviously not the case.
It'd be great to see them turn it around on Friday and I'm hoping that's the case, but I'm afraid they did similar last year here and there, and those victories rang hollow given the repetition of daft mistakes, lack of imagination, outright collapse soon after. I had let myself be persuaded it was all the fault of agent provocateurs in the camp (against my best judgement) but irrespective of whether we win on Friday the quicker we have a change in management the better.'"
All these comments coming out on the hours McNamara is putting in, how he's always planning and watching game footage, and it's the players fault not the managers are almost identical to those coming out of VP over the last 12 months about McCall. And look how that ended...
Just shows that they both clearly care and want to do well, but despite all the effort neither have cut the mustard where it counts...
