It must be back to basics. Notts Forest won without a manager yesterday so I propose that we get rid of the Board, Coaching Staff and CEO. On a strictly rotating basis, one stand chose the team, the next give the team talk before the match and the final stand do the half time and tactical substitutes. It can be no worse than what has happened so far this season.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329889984642264422.post-73702916514604039762008-12-29T11:28:00.000+00:002008-12-29T11:28:00.000+00:00Wyn - I agree wih what you say about deep seated p...Wyn - I agree wih what you say about deep seated problems, but there is still something about the way the team is being coached that appears to be wrong. To return to my well worn theme, take corners as an example. Against QPR on Boxing Day we had a lot of corners. All of them, with one or two exceptions, were woeful. Bouazza made the same mistake three times in a row. Basey, who is normally quite good at them, was worse. Yesterday, listening to the commentary, it sounded like the same applied, really poor ccorners. Surely that is a matter of hard work on the training ground? Same for defending corners and free kicks. There is something not right in the way we approach them. Our throw-ins also always look much more static than those of other teams.<BR/><BR/>Corner CounterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329889984642264422.post-19354269444824796332008-12-29T10:40:00.000+00:002008-12-29T10:40:00.000+00:00I am sure Chappell is a figment of somebody,s imag...I am sure Chappell is a figment of somebody,s imaginationAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329889984642264422.post-14548007564800691812008-12-28T23:20:00.000+00:002008-12-28T23:20:00.000+00:00Just two weeks ago, Derek Chappell made this state...Just two weeks ago, Derek Chappell made this statement: "This season we must ensure we maintain our Championship status, which is a huge change from setting out in August with hopes of a play-off place." <BR/><BR/>I am dying to hear how he intends to go about it because there's nothing I've seen/heard since that remotely backs up the declared intent.<BR/><BR/>Call me impatient.Ken Jenningshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00741612498023798047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329889984642264422.post-17132629644900838282008-12-28T21:49:00.000+00:002008-12-28T21:49:00.000+00:00I agree with a lot of this.

IMO if they had got rid of Parky at the same time they did Pardew we could now have a half decent man in charge and be heading out of this mess. All rather too late now i fear.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
