Clough's Interview

[Notts Blade 123]

I've always been skeptical about needing a new manager and whether Clough is the right man for the job, however after his interview today I believe I've made my decision. How can he been happy with a point away against a relegation threatened side, he sounded absolutely delighted with a point, think it sums up his mentality for the team. We should be approaching every single game for 3 points (even Bristol away, which we did). At one point we had a sniff at automatic and now I'm honestly not sure if we will make the playoffs, time over Nigel I'm afraid....

Notts Blade , because football managers see games completely different to fans , and i don't see Clough has a spin merchant.

Spin merchant or not, facts are facts

His team given the resource at his disposal is perfoming shite and frankly is unacceptable in my view

And 6 wins from 19 and 2 clean sheets since November are facts that prove to everyone that it really is not good enough

We had a real opportunity to get out of div 3 at the 4th attempt and Clough is blowing it big time

oops, wrong thread. The interview just gives me zero confidence in him

You are right in that football managers see games differently, but he has to start factoring in what the fans want.

To be honest , i don't think he is bothered what the fans want . All we want is a successful , winning team. You would think that Clough wants the same .

You'd think?

You'd think?

Jonboy , how the team are playing , and they certainly seem to stick to a rigid system , whether it's working or not. Confidence and focus seems low. Perhaps a way off the mark observation , but could Clough have lost the dressing room. There is clicks in any workplace , could it be the players are becoming confused / disillusioned as the fans , and feel he cant take them any further, They say a change is as good as a rest.
