Incoming? Phil Jones - coaching staff

[Toto]

Hope the powers that be are not stupid enough to sack one of the most brilliant tactical minds in the championship and put a novice like Jones in......are they?

I found this paragraph particularly interesting, especially as it pre-dates the Selles experiment.

Done his research! Not sure if this was pre or post Selles with the article saying it's over a year old but some good advice!

Tbh he’ll probably get a game or two with the state of our squad at the minute

 

[Trigger Blade]

Does he know what the traffic is like at Mottram?!

The bypass is coming along, he’ll be able to get to the gridlock in Glossop much quicker when that opens

Wilder and Knill are rather old school and the game has moved on.

Didn't realise the game had moved on so much since last year when they got us 92 points?

And still failed!

And still failed!

If you could take 92 points for the coming season now, would you?

If you could take 92 points for the coming season now, would you?

Not if 8 other teams get 93 points

I see what you mean but, with our record in the playoffs, you only need two teams with 93 points to stop us from going up.

Never forget Moose putting him on his arse.

Moose pretty much ended his career at MU that day, From memory, Jones got hooked at half time and didn’t play much after that game, he certainly didn’t start many. It brings a tear to my eye to think of how Moose wasted his talent. If he had Iliman’s attitude, what a player he could have been.

Sadly that was Mousset’s best 60 mins of his entire career. He was unplayable for that hour. What a waste of talent. He should have been a Premier League striker for his whole career. Silly lad.

Probably the most important signing of the summer will be a new coach.

Hope they get on with go faster stripes

It’s all relative. With the squad we’re likely to have next season, 92 points would be fantastic.

With the squad we had and the position we were in, it was a failure. We threw away both automatic and the playoffs.

I'd agree that we threw away automatic. But the play-off final was out of our hands. We played well enough to win and had a perfectly good goal disallowed. We threw away automatic but were robbed in the playoffs

Being a silly lad didn’t really come into it. He was a very troubled person. Unfortunately, a lot of that sort of stuff doesn’t get sorted out until much later in life. Tragic, really.
