So you have somebody supplying you with inside info on new signings but only via playing charades? ?

We need an ear pulling emoticon.."sounds like"

I’m guessing your “sauce” was a sponsor of the club? BBQ or tomato?

Yeah that's pretty unpleasant, apologies to Donald didn't know about that. Mulvey was a muppet, his strategy backfired big time. Hoole probably fell into this category I guess.

Yeah, finally found it.

The only one that definitely didn’t deserve that was Pain, the other 3 are among the biggest wankers to ever play for us.

What a mess we were that week, definitely the low point. PFA called in by disgruntled players, the club practically giving away tickets just to get somebody to turn up to the Nix game and then the humiliating defeat to cap it off

I think there have been other examples as well, including I think under Okon, that were not reported, where players were sent to train in the corner in an attempt to "persuade" them to "mutually" agree to a contract termination. Struggling to remember names but I struggle to remember what I had for breakfast these days so no surprise really.

I think there’s a difference between saying go train with the youth team and you 4 go kick a ball somewhere by yourselves. Need to maintain a standard of professionalism and that’s where the PFA comes into it.

I don’t think many would be disappointed if Max was given the captaincy full time. He had a great game not burdened by the arm band.

I remember an interview he did maybe last pre season or early season and he said one of his goals is to be the best midfielder in the comp or something along those lines, I scoffed at the time as he’d only made a couple sub appearances. He’s improved exponentially and continues on that path. And to think he was dragged at half time on his starting debut by Staj.

f**k I really hope we're not the Amazon of the AL. Amazon are a massive cnt of an organisation.

Least of all they place unfair and unreasonable expectations on their staff.

With you on that one, not an organization you want parallels drawn with.

. although pay and conditions has never really been our selling point ... but hopefully that is changing too

Not yet. I think you need a louder and more confident voice in a young squad. For me that's Cummings based on what we have right now, potentially the new visa CB if they are quality.

 

[Ironbark]

Agreed it was a shame to compare to Amazon, but the rest is awesome

 

[Big Al]

Agree he is not ready yet and I actually don’t think he played well like others do. I hope one of the new players to come in is captain material.
He still needs time to learn the league before being burdened with captaincy.

Cummings is a character but not a captain. He needs to be the jovial fun guy he is not the serious captain type.

 

[shipwreck]

Agree with this ?

 

[Ironbark]

I'm still wondering if one the the new recruits on the way is earmarked for captain, particularly the experienced CB

Maxy might be one for the future. Wilkinson was pretty young when he started as our captain, but we definitely need an assertive voice and I think Max needs to grow into it yet.

That said I don't know what he's like at training or amongst the lads really so just an impression

 

[shipwreck]

If it's Hanlon you can bet he is a shoo in for Captain

 

[Insertnamehere]

Ouch. Too accurate

Agree. The captain needs to be able to kick some ass within the team at times. Its hard to then on the other hand be the joker, fun times guy.

He could be a useful VC. Serious at times but not to the point of tuning guys up, but also helping boost guys after a dressing down.

Vukovic would be a perfect Captain ?
