NeymarSmith 130 Posted September 25, 2022 Seemed like he was doing a good job at hudds, maybe he should return there? It's again proof grass isn't always greener. Especially when you got a club eating out your hand and you have an upward trajectory Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They punched above their weight and then lost their best players as well. His next job, if he wants one in this country, will probably be at a Championship club with more chance of promotion than Huddersfield.

As it stands he alone doesn't have the ability to sack anyone for starters. He's also said that at least initially, they're mainly going to look at sharing sports science and approaches to player conditioning and player recruitment etc. He's not arrived to just suddenly make a lot of demands... he's underlined that too, he feels that the club has been and is well run.

In fairness, Adams and Grant both made sense. Grant had been assistant coach to Pardew at West Ham when they finished 9th and reached the 2006 FA cup final... the one where they really should have won and had Ashton playing. The argument here is perhaps that good assistant managers don't always make the best managers. Though I suspect no one would have complained had it of been Bowen, for example. Adams had been successful with the Youth Cup, and much of that side was, at his appointment, in or around the senior set up. Both the Murphy's had pushed on, Morris and a few others on the periphery too. In some senses it made sense if he knew how to get the best out of those players. To be fair, he was also not doing too badly. In fact, he did better than both of the other two. At some point, assistant coaches, youth team coaches, assistant managers, will apply to be managers and somewhere will give them that chance, it's then up to them to to take the opportunity. That's about it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes I have actually and he doesn't refer to Smith by name, just as 'the coach'. It seems him and Webber very much have each other's ear. I think it's very clear Attanasio wants NCFC to be in the EPL and sooner rather than later. As we all do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
