sheded 0 Posted October 29, 2006 My list of passengers to climb aboard the Deadwood coach and head out to the badlands , is :-Livermore , Grants sidekick is one manager too many !and is the probable problem with poor team cohesion , can`t see him getting along with Grant !Hunter , probably clashes with Grants ideas , so ditto as above .....Carolan * Anybody tell me why we need a sports " scientist " ? doing a great job eh ? Webb* Can`t say his products measure up too well ! William , ditto above .Martin , Ditto above .Drake * Performance coach !! you cannot be serious ? git aboard .......Team psychiatrist * The couch is on the back seat ... git aboard ......M.L.J. that leg will go again , and soon ! limp aboad , what we paying you for ? Safri , only consistant thing about him , is the groin injury ! Doc , useless .....McVeigh , chip on his shoulder is now a log ! becoming fat and lazy Thats the first coach full , giddyup , and don`t spare the horses ! There`s a second coach heading this way , should be here soon , some passenger who could be climbing aboard that one , if they don`t shape up , are :-Hughes .Thorne .Jarvis.Robinson .All the above would benefit from playing in a settled team , managed soley by Grant ! We have to keep the core part of the team , which is :-Croft .Drury,Hucks.Colin.Etuhu.Earnshaw.Shackell.Gallacher.Eagle.Lewis.These players have shown some backbone . and willingness to make them have it when it starts to go tits up , Grant has to be totally in control from now on , it looks like there`s far to many " managers " putting their snouts in , rant over .......

Rudolph Hucker 0 Posted October 29, 2006 Yeeeeeeeeeeee,ha! Sheded.Those wagons were in a circle yesterday but still Stoke got through.I can see Calamity Deals ridin'' on top crackin her whip just like Doris Day and arriving to sup with her Board at the Last Chance Saloon.I agree that such remedial work is essential, but like any maintenance if it is left it costs more in the end and that is why the Board now have to spend BIG to turn things around before we end up on Boot Hill.There''s a lot of contracts to pay up there and I wonder if the bullet might be bitten.

The Duke of Norfolk 0 Posted October 29, 2006 Ha! Ha! very amusing.I agree with parts of your post.For me the dead wood at our club is as follows.Doug Livermore. He is part of the Worthington regime and he needs to go because i don''t like a major part of Worthingtons regime still have a significant role in the management of our team.Fleming. Great servant to the club but now too old.Louis Jean. Neil Emblen springs to mind with this guy. He is contracted till the end of the season so we may as well pay him off in January if we can and get someone else in who PG wants.McVeigh. Talented but he has gone stale at the club and needs to move on for his and our own good. Contracted till the end of the season i beleive so as with MLJ pay him off.Hughes. Tries but simply isn''t good enough. Trouble is he is contracted for another 18 months so we might be lumbered with him.Robinson. Simply average at best. Trouble is contracted for another 18 months ditto the same as Hughes.Hendersen. Not got any better in the 3 years he has been playing. Not going to be good enough. Another of NW''s favourites. Contacted till the end of the season?Thorne. Waste of space. Whether he is past it or has an attitude problem or both i don''t know. Contacted till the end of season. Pay off in January.Dion Dublin. Why did we sign him? I am sure he tries but too old and not good enough now. Contracted till end of season. Pay off in January.Jarvis. Either sort your self out Ryan or go. Now that is over half of our team.Can we have a turn around of such numbers in January? is the money there to pay off their contracts and bring in new players?Time will tell.Also i beleive that we may have to sell Earnie in Janaury in order for PG to rebuild the team. That would be painful yes but may be the only way forward for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dame to Blame 108 Posted October 30, 2006 Why does the doc get so slated on here from the games i watch he always gives 100% and dominates anything in the air, give it a rest and stop slagging of one member of the team who seems to care. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
