Time to discuss Coleman - Page 5

Twenty Eight · 16-12-2016, 16:46

"here are my 3 criticisms of Coleman

1. fitness
we appear to have the least fit squad in the league, we always have done.
quite a few of our players are nowhere near their physical peak.
Sports science and diet is huge in football and can make the difference, why is there no evidence of the manager utilising the available technology and dietary understanding.

2. no plan B
we have one way of playing and small variations on that same way, but no genuine plan B or C.
We are predictable, it rarely if ever changes.
As the pitches deteriorate at this time of year, so have our results in past seasons - we must have a plan B and a plan C and be able to adapt to the conditions

3. team selection
the manager has always been and remains to loyal to players who aren't performing (doesn't mean they aren't good enough, just not performing) and to quickly to fall out with others resulting in good players not getting a look in."

And you're his number one fan ?
Gonna keep away when the posters aren't fans then.

please,
dont question my credentials.

If anything, this thread I have started has demonstrated the support, belief and good will that Coleman will turn it around is stronger than ever.

DAV007 · 17-12-2016, 08:45

Why would you suggest a fellow fan is taking drugs?

Please get behind the club.

st06nc2 · 17-12-2016, 10:25

That is his standard response when the discussion isn't going his way.

DAV007 · 17-12-2016, 20:27

no,
why would any real fan within the stanley family make such hurtful comments to suggest a fellow fan was smoking drugs?

please, lets stay united and get behind the club

Are you questioning my credentials or is it a case that if everyone doesn't bow down to you then you throw your doll out of the pram ?

You started the thread so don't expect all and sundry to agree with what you are saying. I reiterate what I said earlier in this thread, it is NOT up to the fans to discuss what the manager does or does not do, we are not a fan owned club, that is up to the directors and Andy Holt. My question would be, why does Coleman leave it until 10 minutes before the end of the game to make his substitutions? Clearly PAFC did a job on us despite us having more possession, more shots on target, more corners etc etc (Stats from BBC website).We had an impact player in GTF on the bench so why not put him on for the last 20 minutes? Perhaps you as the biggest Coleman fan can answer these questions. No don't bother with your drivel. I still think Coleman will turn this barren spell around, but I cannot see him having long into the New Year if we continue dropping towards the Conference National

We are....... where we are...... for one reason alone......we ain't hitting the net....

I'd go along with other suggestions.... as in why we don't seem to have a plan "B" ( "C" or even "D" ) and the management seems to have some sort of mental block as into leaving substitutions until they have little or no time to impact.....

If....(and it is an "IF" ) we get past Luton in the cup in early January.....I'd sincerely hope that Mr. Holt grants Coleman licence to spend some real money on a couple of players.....

We made some good money on the League Cup run......getting past Luton would make us at least another £75k without even thinking who we hypothetically draw in the 4th round !!!

If certain players ( a.l.a. Eagles & G.T.F. ) are surplus to requirements....contractual arrangements permitting .......they need to be released.

That would free up some of the wages....

We also need to utilise the loan market by bringing in some players who will help achieve the objective.......MID TABLE !!!

Forget surging for the play-offs.....this season is now about surviving. The league table don't lie. We are where we are for a reason.

This is simply not true - please stop this mud slinging

I did not claim to be a huge James Beattie fan

I gave him 10 games before I made a judgement

Carpon is right, we are now in a relegation battle

Haha - only you could accuse others of mud slinging.
Read the start of this thread.
Don't care how you try and twist this your intention was to put the boot into Coley.
I also don't care what your credentials are and what you perceive them to be.
Have the last word - you always do - but then suggest this thread is closed down and everyone moves on.

It is hard being the smallest club with emergency loans being scrapped. It was likely to be a struggle, like most seasons staying up is success.
