THIS IS YOUR JOB, it's not meant to be an easy life/money, if you don't want to be here, we don't want you either so have some balls and rip up you contract and walk away "by mutual consent" 3). to the owners It's pretty clear that big Nige is biting his tongue big time every time he does an interview.

They often read the room wrong on Twitter. A lot of the time it’s content for content’s sake - their brief is obviously not dissimilar from the Bristol Post, driving engagement as much as possible. Personally their training ground stuff I think is pretty good. Just the social media stuff is a bit silly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong here - but I get the impression that the current social media ‘style’ was originally encouraged by JL. They’ll argue it’s vindicated as they’ve won a couple of those social media awards, but reading replies to tweets they put out I’m not so sure the fans actually enjoy it. I follow a few clubs on twitter and we’re by far the most embarrassing of the lot. A fair few do a bit of humour, but it’s about 5% at most and usually pretty well timed. It feels like we try to be ‘funny’ in every other tweet and it just doesn’t work. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are in the same position: decent players being inadequately coached and guided. It sounds like a good argument until you look at our players - generally speaking most of them are shit. Under pressure at Championship level their first touch is shite meaning their second touch normally ends up being a tackle, they cant pass, they cant shoot, they have no bollocks, they don't concentrate for 90 minutes etc. etc. They are a very bang average group of LEAGUE 1 standard players bar three of four that are being rapidly exposed at Championship level. I guarantee you 100% now that if the players don't change they will get to exactly where they are now with the next manager. Guaranteed.

Mr Chappers Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 (edited) Let’s be honest, who looked at our midfield line up against Coventry and thought it would be competitive defensively at Championship level? Add to that two very inexperienced full backs and double cover often being absent. With so many young (and old) players, many on their third game in a week due to lack of options, hardly surprising that they tired late on. In the unlikely event of James, Williams and King being fit together, the midfield would look a lot better, guide the younger players and might paper over the other cracks.
