Re: CONFIMRED - Blackman to Derby

I think it's more of a case of good business on the clubs part regardless. Nick Blackman's had the time and effort of 3 of our managers, Brian, Adkins and Clarke. A 1.2 mil fee signed when we were a prem club with the club looking to develop the player within a 12 - 18 month period to then either of...

Re: CONFIMRED - Blackman to Derby

Surely it shouldn't be Brian's aim to build a team around Vydra if he's leaving at the end of the season, yes he's a good player but he's only on loan. True.. But I'd like to think we'll be making the most of him to help get us into a play off position. You never know if we achieve that and go on t...

Re: CONFIMRED - Blackman to Derby

I'm not too fussed that Blackman's no longer available for selection due to us being paid 3 million + add ons for his 5 months of good work. I also think we'll now be a better team without him. Before his purple patch most of us thought he was gash and if we're all to be honest, not too many of us c...

Re: Chris Davies in as first team coach - Terry Burton depar

Burton is his mate ffs!!! :roll: Can't decide if this thread is full of WUM's or just people who really struggle to understand life. Ever been on holiday with a mate and released it was a big mistake? Listen we'll never know the reason so I'm happy to take the positives and say whatever happened it...

Re: Chris Davies in as first team coach - Terry Burton depar

Maybe Brian realised it wasn't going to work out having Burton as his assistant and made a swift call (early doors) to change things. BM wants a certain culture within the club, maybe Burton disagreed? We'll never know the details for sure but whatever the reason it was concluded very quickly by BM ...

Re: 3 things [you think's] wrong with the team...

1) not working as a unit - although can be good in patches 2) too often choosing the wrong pass - awareness 3) lack of confidence in front of goal (including corners) the other team seem to have more desire to defend. The end product of Steve Clarke's left over Christmas dinner. Brian will sort this...

Re: Wolves Predictions

We all want a win but a tricky game this. I'll reluctantly predict a 1-1 draw although my Skybet account will say Reading to score 4 or more goals @ 33/1.

Re: Welcome back Brian!

John Madejski's Wallet Well my excitement with Brian's return lasted right up until I realised he's still head over heels in love with HRK :|

The fact he lasted the whole 90 up front makes it more depressing

Re: Welcome back Brian!

All football managers will have good and bad spells. All them will have tactical pluses and minuses. Not many of them these days act with a love for the club and its associates like Brian McDermott. I remember Brian's disconsolate and slow walk around the Wembley turf after we lost to Swansea in th...
