In Gunns Hands We Trust! 0 Posted October 8, 2007 I don''t think a club of Norwich''s size should be used for new Managers to gain experience.Surely the Conference and lower leagues are a proving ground for Managers of the Future.They shouldn''t be paid big money in their first position as a club manager in the Championship!I think that this is proving itself at the moment.

[:)][/quote]Yep I will give JAS that one... [:)] Better than having a use for both of them!!! So he was a decent player was he???How many goals did he score (excluding the penalties) and how many goals did he set up?Oh and forgive my ignorance, but was he not also part of the team that got relegated from the Premier League???

arrdee 2 Posted October 8, 2007 Now you lovely old boys ,talking of penalty takers , the best penalty taker i ever saw for the City was Mike Kenning .I never saw him miss one .But perhaps you stats kings know better .Mike would always run up and strike the ball with his right foot but on impact he would open his foot up to send the ball a foot inside the keeper left hand post , the keeper always diving to his right , it was like shelling pea''s to Mike . arrdee.

Vern 0 Posted October 8, 2007 My grandad knew that 4-4-2 with two wide players getting down the wings, crossing quality balls into the box for the strikers to score was a great system. The central midfielders dictating the tempo and the defence stepping up together as a unit is great.....he was really clever at talking about it....Obvious stuff but would he make a good manager.......NO. Neil Adams is a commentator..NOT a Manager Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
