New Head Coach

[Southern A]

Think we'll get a sense of direction early on.

Big summer with all of these to be sorted;
Ownership
Speakman
Head coach
Transfers out
Transfers in
Rigg contract

Probably missing some things there.

sounds crazy but I’d put Rigg as the priority

 

[The Norton Cat]

And he has failed and it's caused issues. We have someone significantly unqualified to be in the dugout. His mate btw. And we are in free fall. We have and 3 **** transfer windows. The squad is lacking balance.

His job. His calls. His failure.

He hasn't failed. We've had two good seasons and one sticky one. He may or may not go at the end of the season but you clearly don't like him and look for any stick to beat him with. You've made out he's interfering in team selection when what he's actually doing is just being the Sporting Director.

Others have made that out and used his quotes to confirm.

I have passed on what I have hard. But his quotes are his words. He has failed btw. Lifting season.

62m.

squad is probably worth more then that alone, so if he leaves on that fair play to him

I doubt he will leave with that though

could feasibly make close to 62m in sales this window coming up if we sell all the crown jewels

But will we be stronger next season?

 

[Confucius]

Or maybe KLD wants 130 and Sheik in Stevens offered 62

 

[Daz]

62m.

That would be an absolute bargain.

We only need to spend some cash on a proper manager and a couple of experienced players.

An experienced manager with tactical awareness would make a huge difference to the squad as it is as long as he was allowed to get on with it. I’m massively worried however that we will get another manager on the cheap, if that happens we will drop back to League One.

Under someone like Dodds or Beale? Absolutely no chance.

6 defeats in a row should be setting alarm bells ringing with the owners.

And then it's "Merry Christmas , Everyone"

no chance unless speakman and model goes we be doing it all again next season

Are they bothered though? They bought a L1 club for peanuts and are mostly relatively young in their ownership careers. Getting a 30m profit for KLD is **** all. Could it be that we are just a learning curve for some of these lads? I don't know obviously just wondering.

we seem to be a learning curve for owner, technical director, head coach and even the players

I wouldn't disagree with that tbh. Not where we should be imo

 

[Mackem 10.1]

He isn't picking the team. He makes suggestions and spotlights players who are encouraged to get more minutes.He should have zero say.

All sporting directors have a say, doesn't mean he picks the team.

 

[Mackem 10.1]

Bullhsit. It's not normal. It's why all of our head coaches had their fill and it pissed them off. Seriously, if Tone ended up snapping, does that not tell you something?

It is normal for a sporting director

 

[Mackem 10.1]

Be gutted if KLD went. Always risky what ya get with new owners and I think he is decent. Made a few mistakes under his ownership but still best we have been ran in decades imo!

Not sure where all this is coming from about KLD leaving is coming from, there is nothing to suggest he is going to sell

 

[Mackem 10.1]

Like I said earlier with my Warnock suggestion, I just want some fun supporting the club at the moment and if thats excitement over a new owner I think i'd take it

Why would it be fun with Warnock, his football is awful

 

[J Flash]

What’s changed for KLD for a sudden sale? Was it always the plan to just get us up and sell? Always sounded like long term commitment from him, disappointing if he wants out so soon. Not really a fan of rolling the dice on ownership unless its clear they are bad for the club (ie Donald etc), don’t feel close to that way about KLD currently
