It's interesting bit of media to see the master, Davitt, still fishing around subjects like "the takeover", and the pupil, young Seaman, trying desperately to appear in the know.

Iām really surprised if Webber does this interview without some really distracting feel good news announcement/s just prior, so Iād buy this. Ā Heās presumably no interest in dissecting the last two years and so thatāll beĀ needed. Iām not sure announcing 1-2 signings is going to cut it.Ā Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SwearyCanary 1,179 Posted May 13, 2023 I honestly think the time for the 90% comment has run its course. If it was to do with him giving 90% of his life to the job then itās fair enough, if itās him giving 90% of his effort to his job specifically then itās shameful. As he didnāt say either might be time to assume we will never know.Ā I donāt like Webber, I think without Kieran Scott his record speaks for itself and his public persona appears to me and very much in my opinion, to be arrogant and a bit if a ****. If he was great at his job it wouldnāt matter much, Iām not married to him, but if he isnāt then the persona just becomes a vehicle to use to deride any supporters he still has. Attacking the manās personality is not really worthwhile, his performance is far more objective. Much like Cantwell, when he was playing badly (ie all the time for us for 2 years) I found it perfectly acceptable to slate his performances. I did slip into a dig at his social media profile efforts, which I still find classless and tacky, but ultimately my gripe with him was that he just wasnāt very good at his job.Ā Cantwellās 1/4 season in the epl gave him a 2 year free pass. Webberās first fewĀ years gives him a similar free pass, but Iād say his rope is running out for most, gone already for many others. If next season is not coming up trumps the he will go. I have some weird feeling that his interview will be announcing some kind of long term transition with SWĀ leaving and MA gettingĀ a new person in to take over next year ish. This is based on absolute conjecture and no insider knowledge š Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terminally Yellow 2,492 Posted May 18, 2023 Seen reports that Webber is being interviewed at radio Norfolk today (potentially as we speak) ahead of broadcast tomorrow.Ā So sounds like each media outlet is getting individual meetings with Webber?Ā Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

repman 642 Posted May 18, 2023 I see that another member of the analysis team has left the club, it's been a pretty steady drip of losses in that area and I'm not sure they've been replaced. It seems a lot of the work these people do has been ignored mainly due to the ego of the coaching staff, who aren't exactly receptive to help outside their circle. It feels emblematic of the failures we've seen over the last few seasons, too many people 'ignoring the noise' and burying their heads in the sand instead of being willing to accept their weaknesses. It'd be good if one of the journos put to Webber a question about the personnelĀ losses in these areas but I imagine it's more likely theyĀ only wantĀ to find out any transfer gossip + takeover news.

Michael Starr 523 Posted May 18, 2023 (edited) I'm concerned that none of the local journo's will wanna push him too much now the door is slightly open again for fear of being shut out again. Especially if he's doing individual interviews with them. Why risk losing a footing directly when others wont. To do individual interviews is incredibly smart.

Jeez, he's not a sex offender, what kind of pushing questions are you thinking could be asked here?Ā "Do you want the job, Stu?" is hardly going to cause a door being slammed. Remember that the issue the club had was with a trusted outlet breaking story in regards to new ownership despite them requesting of it not to be released, that's completely different than sitting down and asking critical questions which is part of their jobs.
