Players on holiday? 08:44 - Mar 25 with 8602 views

I'm pretty sure Gaz said nobody would be going on holiday during the international break? So this isn't a particularly good look...

I assume it's the one of the two chaps with a sponsorship with regatta, they've been trying to transition from an outdoor clothing company to more of a sports clothing company for years.

Like a tree falling where no one is there to hear the sound, how do we know if our players are on holiday or not?

He at least has been putting in some effort on the pitch. Let him have a break ffs

I don’t begrudge the guy a well-earned break either and if you check the destination at least he’s keeping the carbon emissions down.

To be honest, I wasn't really talking about him. I couldn't care less if our players were larging it every single week if they were playing well.

I'm not overly arsed either and FWIW I think Martin is one of the few good eggs in the side. However, if the manager publicly said nobody's going away and then the current captain turns up in Portugal, it's not great optics is it?

Undermines the manager's authority imo.

Like most people, it seems, I don't really care.
But, as you say, it doesn't come over well and is counterproductive if the aim is to show us how seriously the club is taking our predicament, but it turns out they are talking shit.

Well, If he’s gone away without permission that’s a different matter. But who has said he has?

For all we know he’s grafted like cnt all week, or is injured, and is heading out for the weekend. Or season doesn’t hang on the balance of it.

Manager publicly states that players will not be going on holiday.

Player then goes on holiday.

It's not much granted, but it all starts to build a picture of a rudderless football club.

Regardless of whether he's got permission or not, maybe a) don't say anything about holidays in your post-match interview and b) don't take pictures whilst you're on a jolly.

Add this to the cavalry comments and it's another stick to beat the club with, when we inevitably get dicked 2-0 by Wigan.

If he scores the winner at Wigan and the winner at home to PNE then somehow I'd find the money for his flights to wherever for a week off.

I don't take any notice of what the club 'puts out' in the way of information.

I'm only interested In results not waffle.

Waffle never scored a goal or saved a penalty.
