Duncan Ferguson - The Coach

[deipnosophist]

I'm using "f.a." as an acronym for eff all.

I hope this clarifies.

...strictly speaking, ‘f.a’ is an initialism as opposed to an acronym...

That's the most I've enjoyed watching Everton in years, even if they still put me through the wringer.

I am ok with him being given the job till the end of the season. Be fun. Not gonna go down I don’t think.

All the numpties questioning what DUNCAN does as a coach
It now transpired that he wasn’t allowed any input in Marcos 1st team coaching
Loved the drive from him today
The passion, the energy and fight. Well done big man!!
Never thought I’d ever sing the Duncan Ferguson song at Goodison again
Fantastic!!!!

He is so quiet on the bench as well over the last 3 seasons.

That interview with him on ToffeeTV was decent. He basically said his job as a coach is to help the manager implement his vision and make suggestions he thinks could help. He's a loyal guy who does what the manager wants of him. Doesn't want to be in the limelight and enjoys helping players reach their potential

Very happy to be proved wrong today and I equally hope to be proved wrong against utd and Arsenal.

I thought Dunc looked emotional at the end. looked like he was going to cry. He was bursting with pride. He loves Everton and won't accept slackers as a manager but we haven't a clue if he has the tactical nous.

Happy for him that we won

He can cherish today forever and let's hope he continues to Instill that passion in the players when he goes back to his coaching duties under the new manager

His tactics got across to the players today. Fair enough if they were more direct. U could spot the difference in first couple mins. More direct. But the players needed to understand that too. They did. All of them. It will do for time being if we can get some points on the board and climb table.

His tactics were to smash the ball 70 yards down the pitch and hope for the second ball. Straight out of the David Moyes playbook. May as well get the real McCoy in.

Exactly. What we saw today is basically what you would get out of Moyes. And no one wants him. So why the sudden adulation over Drunken Duncan?
