Harry Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 (edited) Please no Black next season in any role, his 'caretaker' spell has proved his utter incompetence. Edited April 26, 2016 by Harry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrytini Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Black struggling has no bearing on his coaching abilities, about which we know nothing, but was OK for Bruce, and Garde, and if Pearson was happy with it, Pearson. Whilst I've seen nothing to like it does seem to me some fans can't wait to assume the worst on little evidence. I'll have a guess he may know how to coach. What would matter is the chemistry between them, and the other coaches appointed. It's premature and a little uninformed to write him off already. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weeks? Relegation has been a certainty for months and we haven't "made it count" That would have required a few things all sadly lacking from our club, namely: foresight, planning, effort, leadership and ability.

Sam3773 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 I think Black's shown us all we need to know. Each week he has a chance to choose from the current crop of 30 or so crap players, and he consistently chooses 11 crap players. Black out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok it's never clear what the division of duties is between a manager and a coach but under Garde there was little evidence IMO of Black influencing matters on the field. Since he has been manager he has seemed out of his depth, again IMO. Added to that his team selections have been poor and lacking in any sort of invention. I though Black came with a decent CV but I have seen little evidence to suggest he has added any real value. As with many of the players he is tainted with our abject failure so for me at least I think he needs to go along with those players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst not comparing our fate to those suffering in war (!!) it seems apt.........".Its a lovely day tomorrow, tomorrow is a lovely day...if today your heart is weary, if every little thing looks grey, just forget your troubles and learn to say, tomorrow is a lovely day....... " Trouble is, the war was 1939-1945, 6 years. We've had longer than that and tomorrow still keeps getting feckin worse !! In my view the definitive ww2 documentary. Everyone should watch it. It is much better than watching the villa. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve McLaren is a shit manager but Roy Keane thinks he is one of the best coaches he has worked under, could say same with Paul Clement didnt do a great managerial job at Derby but he has PSG, Real Madrid hire him as a coach 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blandy Posted April 27, 2016 Moderator Share Posted April 27, 2016 Quote I've just read one report where Pearson is coming in and Black is staying to work with him. When will things stop getting worse? Quote I don't see that as things getting worse, personally. Each to their own and all that. But it looks like "better" to me. 14 hours ago, Pilchard said: Impressed by Eric Black's contribution since joining us then? Not particularly, though it's hard to assess.

Popular Post Straggler Posted April 27, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted April 27, 2016 I heard that when Pearson joined Leicester one of the first things he did was get rid of the bad attitude players. He didn't ttry to tame them or bully them into submission he just got them out of the club. This included some of the more talented players. First thing he wanted to create was a culture where everyone was pulling in the same direction. This was said by a psychologist still working at Leicester interviewed on the BBC about the amazing rise of lcfc. Doesn't sound so bad to me. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
