The kids....a lot to like

Post: # 1328864Post Uncle Barrels »

Got a half bar just thinking about it. Fly under the radar.

Newnes: classy, will get there
Ross: same, beautiful shoe
Saunders: hard at it. Manic
Wright: tough. Quick. Going to be a jet
Murdoch: good last week early. Great size
Sippos: that mark early suggested a lot.
Armo: love him. Would take on a tank bare-handed
McEvoy: got some deficincies, but will always give everything
Stanley: worth persisting with down back. Not been great tonight, but got tricks
Steven: disposal hit-and-miss, but quick and can't stop getting the pill. Runs himself to death
Simpkin: biggest head to body disparity since the first Jack-in-the-Box. Would chew gravel and s*** steel. Will make it as the third defender.
Roberton: could just well be the best of the lot. Potential skipper?

Add to that, White - who could be anything, but probably something amazing, and Hickey - who has serious potential - and let's get a little excited, shall we?

Milney had some ordinary weeks early in his career. Give the kid a break.

Lance or James??

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

My advice to the "kids". Instinct not plans. For young players, the moment you try and get too much of "the plan" into their heads, they become obsessed with it. So, despite being clear, they will look for a handball. This is where the coach, on match day, just has to say to one or two - "you've got the talent - go for it. If you do and it doesn't work out, I won't drag you." It's called faith.

WRIGHT

Best new player we've had for about 10 years. A grader potential for sure.

Happy to be proved wrong K. Very VERY proud.

Never thought the kids were lacking though, just lacking experience. Was more worried about Collingscum's height.

The hunger and intensity is there, want to make their shot count
