rodders0223 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 I do think this played a role in him getting the sack tbh. Absolute farcical to be honest. Was about as tinpot as you can get. You train all week, meetings, tactical analysis, run through set pieces the day before I presume as is the norm - 20 minutes into the game we're passing around notes. If it was to one person I'd forgive it, half the team needed to read it. How that lanky set piece coach is still in a job is beyond me. Must be Purslow or Lange's man.

Yes Purslow has said that he was planning on giving Smith another 2 seasons, but the note humiliated the entire city of Birmingham and brought shame upon the ghost of Ron Saunders. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It the was the poor spelling in the note that did it for Smith. He thought he was writing it for Grealish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People complained Deano was too passive and not reactive enough. Sees something not working (whether players weren't doing as told or something unexpected from Soton), passes a message to the players to try and change something, and gets slated?

Tom13 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 I would think that our board wouldn't care how amateurish this may have looked as long as it helped the team, but it didn't. The half soaked attention a few of our players gave it said it all as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
