Keith Scott 238 Posted March 5, 2017 What did you make of Jerome''s interview yesterday? I know you berated Martin for his honesty after the Brighton game. Wonder if the honesty and reality of Jerome''s interview was too much for you to stomach to? Thanks in advance. All the best. Keith Scott. Binner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I''m sure you''ll point me to that but in the mean time all I can remember saying was that I didn''t agree with it because I felt it compromised the managers team selection for the next game. As it was the only player left out was Jacob who made way for Brady. On the face of it that then appeared that Jacob was the only player who downed tools at Brighton but the manager obviously managed to keep Jacob on side because he came back and carried on his good season for us. Including scoring the goal against the binners in a game you started a thread saying you hoped we''d lose.I don''t have the same issues with Cameron Jerome''s interview not least because he''s not captain. Keith, I don''t know if you''re a binner but I can''t stomach the idea any Norwich fan would start a thread titled "Come On Ipswich!" in the week leading up to the derby. So binner it is then.You''re welcome[Y] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,351 Posted March 5, 2017 The Canaries’ embarrassing defeat at theirone-time play-off rivals Sheffield Wednesday triggered the striker to questionhis team-mates’ respect for each other – but the manager should not be goinganywhere for now.“He’s going to come under scrutiny againbecause he’s managing a team that’s expected to get promoted,” said Jerome.“Ultimately he picks a team, he’s got a talented squad at his disposal and the11 players on the pitch aren’t doing their jobs.“The manager and his coaching staff gothorough thoroughly all our work in the week and in depth, tactical analysis onthe opposition, we know how the opposition are going to play and we train thatway in the week, we set up to combat that – and ultimately it’s simple mistakesand it’s costing us.“So what can you do? He’s on the sidelinegetting more and more irate, and the goals are going in one after the other.So it’s going to be that sort of pressureon his part and on the club’s part from fans and people who are going to becalling for his head.“But there’s no need to make a hastydecision now. There are 10 games to go and who knows what’s going to happen,but I’m sure the club’s got every faith in him and the lads still believe inhim.“It’s a decision what will probably be madeat the end of the season. Nothing too hasty. A 5-1 result’s not going tosuddenly change things and sack the manager. I think the club has been morethan sensible enough with the patience they’ve shown with the manager this yearand rightly so, because if you look at what he’s done for the club, he hasactually done a good job.“But ultimately it’s the players who go outthere week in, week out, that haven’t performed. So his hands are tied from mypoint of view.” City are back in action as quickly asTuesday’s trip to bottom three side Bristol City, and Alex Neil’s men can’tafford to let Saturday’s recriminations linger.“It’s difficult to get around those issueswith another game so quickly,” said Jerome. “As a team, you don’t want to dwellon disappointment too much. The manager will have a debrief and I thinkeveryone has just got to be honest with each other – as a person and as ahuman, you need to sit there and be able to accept criticism.“I think it’s the way the game has evolvedover the last five to 10 years. Certainly before I was playing, I rememberbeing a young lad coming in to play in this league and you’d get slaughtered bysome of the senior players even if they were having a nightmare and you werehaving a good game, just because they were the senior player and that was howit went.“But people are too precious these days andthat’s just how football has changed over the years. People aren’t willing toaccept criticism and people think they’re above it.“As a player, you sit there and no one isexempt from it. Myself included. I’ve not been doing my job fully if the team’snot winning. It’s a simple as that. It’s not just a certain area, the midfieldor defence or attackers. It’s us collectively as a team, as a group of playerson that pitch, we’re not doing enough to win football matches and that’s thebottom line.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What do you make of it Keith Scott?
