Coleman's interview, for anyone who'd like to see it rather than rely on highly selective and often bizarre interpretations on here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7p_ddP4hu4

Can't disagree with a word he's said or how he's said it. Certainly beats the gumph we were given in the first few months of this season and the entirety of last.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Just seen Colemans's post match interview and, whilst most of it is fair, I thought some elements of it were unnecessary.

Sometimes singling players out for praise or criticism is helpful and motivational however in the cases of Macey, Gray and Aldred I don't think it is.

Macey has come here for experience and game time. Give him your view on whether he should have come for the cross forr their goal in private. Gray's effectively been told his style of play doesn't fit in to what the manager's trying to do and he should have left the Aldred comment at 'yes, he's injured'. No need to add 'draw your own conclusions'

It's obvious John's disappointed after the result, however, he's reached a stage in his life and career where he should be a little more self aware of how he reacts and what he says publicly. Send Jimmy out to do the odd interview or give himself 10 more minutes to compose himself and work out what he will and won't say in these situations and how others may react to it - the fans, the players themselves.

I know we need a focal point for the attack and I want him to tell me what he's doing to solve it, not confirm what I can see

On the game, thought draw would be a fair result, albeit did feel they carried a bit more threat in their attacking play.

Obvious to me how clueless our manager is, no doubt will be called a hater once again, I said a couple of weeks ago i could envisage team spirit draining away, well now the flow seems to have increased.:rolleyes:

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Football is a harsh profession and criticism is part and parcel of it.
For me its just a confidence issue which leads to frustration.
We all know there's a piece of the jigsaw missing at present.
Most positions you can cover,goal scorers are much more difficult !!!
Going on to Buxton,hes probably in my top three of talented players at the club
(along with Naismith and Windass).
Hes a good offensive player who sees the big picture in front of him very early (sign of a good player).
I see what Davos saying as it gets you into difficult areas when defending.
for a 22 year only hes not played many games,so has he a fitness issue ?.
If he sorts that out,curbs his natural instinct now and then,he can become a great asset.
Playing him in the three will soon build up his stamina !!!,he was blowing after 5 minutes on saturday :)

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Aye criticism is part of football, but fer me a manager should keep it in house, suppose thats hard when yeh aint got the wit to do so.:rolleyes:

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

If they keep it in house we wont have anything to debate !!,Like or loathe him he takes no prisoners and you know were you stand with him.
He just says it as it is (not a relation of yours is he ?) :)

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

I'm not against him making a general criticism, But singling players out should be a no-no, imho, fans will always do that on message boards, but managers should have more about em.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

Cashman Slags of politicians on the general forum for being full of spin and lies.

Now he is slagging off Coleman for being honest and truthful.


If Alfred has refused to play due to some imaginary injury to help him get a move, then that is disgusting.
Stanley pay his wages, Stanley gave him his chance and it's Stanley who have suffered during his early career while he learnt his trade
Making up a fake injury to get help get a move when your still employed by Accrington is the lowest of the low.
When the team need him most he thinks of himself.
He is our best defender, it feels as if he has deserted us.

On the plus side, Conneely looks a great prospect at CB.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

different styles of managers,i would sooner have a "heart on your sleeve"man anyday.
Too soft these footballers !!!!

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

As I sat at the feet ( Well in the seat behind actually !) of FA19 last night, and revelled in his unfolding of all those tactical systems and nuances that my relatively untutored soccer brain
has been missing for years, An uneasy feeling came over me !...not the one that tells me that my regular visit to the Superloo in the Clubhouse is due, but one triggered by a suspicion that for some reason or other the Reds are rapidly morphing into one of those entities which the media like to describe as ' a struggling Club ' !.
I listened in to conversations which were overflowing with titbits of half-truths, inside information, and the usual harmless gossip !. This could have led me to believe that our Manager is useless as a Coach, a Motivator, and a Man and thus is ready for the walk up Livingston Road into Soccer oblivion !. Or I could have considered the notion that 'the Dressing Room' is a turmoil of discontent inhabited by players who are anxious to ply their trade elsewhere !.
Whatever was colouring my thinking, and to be honest distracting me from FA19's efforts to give me a more comprehensive insight into the game we both love, was the picture of a team
who again were second best to opponents who were to be honest no better in their play than themselves !...it was deja vu of Tranmere, and that was a poor performance !.
So where lies the answer to this dilemma which is rapidly developing into ' the losing habit'
Can't. blame a young Goalkeeper who is going to make at least one error per game. Can't really blame the dearth of Strikers in the squad,goodness knows these are few and far between, and, if gossip is to be believed,the Club couldn't afford one, if the availability came along !. Can't blame the Fans,last night's support was up to it's usual high standard !.
The worst thought last night was that a continuation of what I was witnessing could well lead to the fourth loss in a row on Saturday to a resurgent Northampton Town !.
Sorry if I appear to be a bit gloomy today, but as I have said previously, events at Accrington Stanley are giving me cause for concern.
The final insult emanating from my visit to the match last night, was when Chubbyman sidled up to me and had the bare-faced effrontery to accuse me of making a spelling-error in one of my posts!...now that really hurt !.

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

is that a way of saying were going through a bad patch ? :)

Re: Bury Match Thread
 

I do not see any animosity towards players in JC after match interview just stating the facts goalkeeper had time to move out for the ball, windass had a decent chance that 8 out of 10 he would have put away and a tongue in cheek comment about Aldred's absence (injured?) I was more a miss as to why he put Carver on for just 4 mins I would have liked to have seen on much earlier
