Duncan Ferguson - The Coach

[beachy]

Scottish Simeone.

If we appointed Dunc as manager, would it be a backwards step?

nah

 

[Gilbert..]

I absolutely love the call he made today with kean. Big call to take off a player he threw on. And he made it. Shows hes got the balls to make calls like that. And for all the stick he's getting for the way he reacted to kean. To me it was a cold hard stare at a player who wasnt cutting it. Obviously now he has the decision post match to have a word with the player. Wether he puts an arm round him or just says look you need to up your game a bit. If i throw you on show me why i was wrong not to start you.
Two games in obviously but he got a tune out of them against chelsea and he made a huge CORRECT call today with kean.
All good.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Yes.

nah

If only our politicians could answer like this when they’re asked for a simple yes or no.

I think the only mistake Ferguson made was his reply to why he subbed Kean.

Yes.
I think the way Dunc sets up isn't sustainable for a full season.

Weird he was interviewed on the pitch though wasn't it ?

Never happens that.

I never saw the interview mate, just going by what lads said on here.

I agree. He clearly cut the lad some slack with the reply. Coz he could have just replied..i took him off because he wasnt cutting it. My priority is to this club. Not him.

gagging for the Kean scoop wasn't he that Shreeves

For me I don’t want to go back to the ‘dogs of war’ tag, something I think would happen under Dunc.

What do you say in that situation though? Its a situation of Dunc’s creation, granted, but he’s kind’ve damned if he does, damned if he doesn’t.

I mean he was clearly lying - I think it will have killed Dunc NOT to say “I hauled him off because he’s a disgrace and this team expects better than that”.

But then, the club will have probably given him clear instructions just to maintain the status quo till Eddie arrives.

Why?

Jeff Shreeves was straight onto the pitch to interview Dunc as he was on way to clap the fans.

Cut to scenes of our fans clapping, and it was as if we had actually won.

Very odd all round.

Thing is I'd rather have that than the half arsed bunch of cowards that Silva et al have thrown out every week for the last 5 seasons. Give me fight, passion and organisation over the tippy tappy pointless passing and defensive ineptitude we've suffered for far too long.
