fro5tie Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Good luck to him, everyone needs to get behind him and whatever team lines up at the start of the season. Hopefully we don't end up just getting all Portuguese players in though... hopefully someone will still be nudging him in the direction of proven Championship players at the least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maldenowl Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Bottom 3 after 10 games and he'll get sacked...wonder what the odds are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owls24 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 He clearly doesn't read Owlstalk.....probably a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuncOwl Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Comes across as a bit desperate to get the fans onside in that statement, as though he is aware that this is all a bit left field.Moan when we don't hear anything then moan when we do? Unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogerwyldesmullet Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) No cub scout badges in that cv nor any mention of a cycling proficiency test. I bet he's never even heard of the Tufty Club or Terry Curran. I'm not worried though - behind it all we have Glenn Roeder.

vulva Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I'd be interested to know if any if these guys have ever watched 1 game of Championship football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUMBELOWS91 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Can anyone provide a reasonable justification as to why this has taken so long?Taken so long in what sense? To announce or to get him signed up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sefton owl Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I'd be interested to know if any if these guys have ever watched 1 game of Championship football. So you don't think they will have watched a single game of us between them?? Nor Bournemouth or Watford? Muppet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 It's very odd, but I wish him all the best. The statement from DC mentions trust and support plenty of times. I think the hint/message is quite clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S W F C Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 So why announce it so late when he got the job 2 weeks ago? And why can't the press conference be tomorrow? If he's got time to take training he's got time to give a conference. Just seems so fishy and such a bizarre way of doing things. I agree it sounds fishy, and find it bizarre its been announced at this time, however, that's the only reason I can think off. the picture on the OS shows him with the shirt in daylight, so why not announce it earlier today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EcclesallOwl Posted June 30, 2015 Author Share Posted June 30, 2015 Still trying to get Cooper in according to Dommy Howson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdan2003 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 So we really did contemplate changing the set up just to get Cooper on board Bizarre Dunno mate. I reckon CC was always going to be head coach, with Cooper coming in as an assistant / coach type role. I would guess the fact Cooper wouldn't have full control is a sticking point. Who knows though. Nixon was reporting that CC was coming in as manager a week ago.... Ahh well, maybe it will all come out in the wash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darra Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Radio Sheffield interviewed a Portuguese (I think) football pundit a few weeks ago, someone who knows far more about the football culture over there than you and me. He suggested that it was very common for managers to have short reigns in Portgual (and on the continent in general), it was just how they did things. Its quite interesting to listen to, and he suggested that it should not be a concern to us that Carvalhal had lots of clubs for perhaps only a year or so at a time. Its not an indicator of him being a rubbish coach or anything like that. We only think its weird over here because its not how its traditionally been done in England. think this is getting more common in Spain as well. Interesting to know that it was said on the radio the other day that the average tenure for managers in the Championship is less than a year. Not sure about that TBH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshTheOwl Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 At least the players know who their coach is before the morning Chance for them to do some bed time reading? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dumboldowl Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I wish the guy and his backroom staff every success, one thing puzzles me, and that is why it took till 10.30 pm to make the official announcement when cc's photo on the steps was taken early this afternoon ?
