Toby Loveland & James Oliver-Pearce

[bornablade]

I think it used to be Knill and Wilder relationship.

At Bury (?) Knill was the boss and Wilder his Assistant.

 

[GrunkyPeep]

And I, for one, welcome our new clipboard nerd overlords!

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

His name is actually Tobias Loveland, I wish he'd been in my class at school

If he doesn't have a chest rug and a gold medallion then I'm out of here.

 

[I should coco]

Toby, or not Toby, that is the question.

Jug eared bastard

 

[GodricBlade]

I don’t mind who they bring in as long as one of them can get the squad fit enough to play 90 minutes of Championship football.
Make a change to players blowing out of their arse after an hour.

We had a girl at school with the surname Blackadder. Of course, it was well before the Rowan Atkinson comedy series hit the screens so, unfortunately, no one ever got to ask her if she had a cunning plan.

Says we are gonna win every game. Good enough for me. So that's winning 2 cups, at last a cup run. Yeeeeaaahhh

 

[Silky Sabella]

Can anyone explain why managers seem to stick with the same backroom staff.
I could understand it if they had been successful, but most managers move around because they have failed.
Wilder seems to take Knill with him wherever he goes, Hecky and McCall are a pair, and now Selles is bringing his same team in for the third time.
Is it because they lack the confidence to try something new or are they so blinkered that they don't see that there is an alternative.

Very true, not to mention the assistant and coach always get a job without being interviewed, UNBELIEVABLE !!!

Your comment about them not being interviewed raises another question, does the manager negotiate their contract on their behalf?

Wasn't that Baldrick. ?

 

[Jon Bon II]

Wasn't that Baldrick. ?

Probably, although both Baldrick and Blackadder have uttered the line. One of my favourite lines from the show is from series 3 (I think?), when Blackadder says "I have a plan so cunning, you could put a tail on it and call it a weasel". Not that I'm a nerd or owt....

 

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

Anyone know much on their coaching qualities in detail? Both young coaches I believe.

Weerz Selles' Spanish pals to get us playing the Spain way?

 

[Yoonitedite]

I suspect Wilder relies on Knill much more than most people would think.

And gave him all too little,if indeed any credit.

 

[Shadota]

I don't think Knill cares for being in the limelight at all. Wilder probably could have given him much more credit, but I doubt Knill wants that attention anyway.

I agree.I met him,very humble man.

Surely post the series any lass called Blackadder would have been given the nickname "Bob"

Were her stockings black ?

She might have had a black-ladder

She had a strip of pubes that went right up to her belly button that was known as Blackadder’s Crabladder

That was a double take for a declyxic.

As cunning as a fox who's just been made Professor of Cunning at Oxford University!
