I have no idea what the allegations are in this specific case, but it strikes me that there's a fine line between strong management, which I believe is needed, and bullying, which so often seems to be someone hearing a few home truths. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/46729011 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/46746980
Young kids these days can't seem to cope with the real world, they come from school and collage environments where everyone is a winner, everyone gets a well done no matter what they do and they can get away with absolutely anything because nobody is allowed to upset them.... They then go into the "real" world of employment and adult life and just can't handle proper situations where they are pulled up, questioned and expected to hit certain standards. We see it at our place with grad students etc. It all starts with them not being mentally prepared for real life and the real world at school
He's accused of that. It'll be interesting to see how it plays out. I'd be surprised if it's as clear cut as that, because the owners may have something to say if he was turning talent away.
None of the above is proved and has come from one lads dad. How do we know he isn't just taking the hump because his son wasn't good enough and is using bellamys rep to try and get some £££
If true then he wouldn't be a coach there. Simple as that. Would these claims be made if the lad had been kept at the club and was playing for them?
To be fair, if he was a competent coach, he wouldn't be involved with lower league youth players. I'm not trying to defend him, I didn't particularly like him as a player, and know little of the goings on. I was more using him to raise the question on the line between managing and bullying. He's perhaps a poor example to choose.
No, he's got a scholarship in the USA after not making it here. Do you think he would have chose that route if he was kept on at Cardiff?
Didn't make it at West ham either...he's gone to the USA because he hasn't been good enough to make it in the UK
