Everybody has and will make their own minds up. That’s what football is all about really .
Got to say Clive has pretty much nailed what I was going to say . Welcome the communication of course . All a bit ‘regal’ though isn’t it? And we lose the next 3, which is very possible , this ‘statement’ will look very dated already. Win all 3 which I hope then we can expect more communication. Nothing wrong with that . But don’t think this idea is CN’s decision. This hadscome from above .
But I’m replying to this post in particular for a reason.
Those that think he can do no wrong are entitled to have that opinion , I like to give people the benefit of the doubt myself, but just keep in the back of your minds why the people who have come into contact with him or are close to those that do …often turn their nose up. It’s not coincidence. |
To be fair, people in football always turn their noses up at people who weren’t in football.
I wouldn’t make any judgment on Nourry based on that. |  | |  |

There has literally been nobody saying that Nourry can do no wrong has there?
Plenty clearly think he can do no right though. |  | | |

Which part of the made up abuse of Rayan Kolli do you find disgusting?
The made up ‘forcing Kolli to join a Saudi Arabian club’ or the made up ‘forcing Marti Cifuentes not to pick Kolli for the first team’? |
I will say, your insistence that all those close to the club, *plus* Kolli’s literal dad telling you that Nourry was fcking him off to Saudi Arabia is all made up is a fabulous level of commitment to a bit. |  | | |

I’m looking forward to the comms, transparency, and listening to the fans after a few bad results.

I'd like to know what Anderlecht think of him. The bloke has been working in football for two years maybe and he is dropping in quotes like the Anderlecht one.
We better get used to him because he is going nowhere whilst Hoos is still chairman.
I hope he learns, because right now he is just abit of a pompous tw*t that's been lucky enough to fall into a job where he has complete autonomy to do as he well pleases.
I just don't trust him. |
I don't trust anybody - not completely. That's sanity, in my book. As Adam Phillips cleverly puts it, 'trust is a word we've put too much trust in'. Or, if you prefer it from the mouth of my Russian tattoo artist, 'trust nobody - not even yourself!' |  |

Nourry does write in a slightly detached way. And his,manner is very autistic in its delivery.
That's not a criticism.
It's merely how the way the piece is written comes across. Lucky that our upturn in form has provided the right time to put this out.
Am certain he is reading loftforwords so there we have it boys and girls we have the power so any other Christmas presents wanted for our club in the new year.
Place your requests and the Nourry Meister will consider your proposals. [Post edited 26 Dec 0:05]

I very much doubt he bothers to read LfW or any of the fan platforms for that matter, unless he's a glutton for punishment and vitriol etc.
I read his address and found it well-written, informative and reasonably reflective while maintaining the mostly positive 'spin' one would expect from any official statement of this kind. Its timing is neither here nor there. I work as a professional editor and, if I were evaluating his text, I'd probably change very little of it. (By contrast, for the record, Marti has taken to telling us he has his 'thoughts' about the players and our injury record but he isn't going to share them, which is apparently perfectly ok with some.)
Nourry's tone, given his position, is also fine overall. As a person with family members on the spectrum, I would, however, be genuinely interested to know what you mean by calling it 'very autistic' if you'd care to elaborate. [Post edited 27 Dec 3:31]

I can tell you categorically that ‘the club’ do indeed read these pages .
It’s why some people are more ‘candid’ than others which I know drives the politically envious insane on here , but that’s just how it is | | | |

Dishevelled, bags under eyes look designed to show how hard he is working behind the scenes? Wouldn't have seen our Les look as scruffy! It's how I used to look turning up to work in my 20s before I gave up the drink.
Don't really mind the statement. All largely PR nonsense as noted but I'd rather have it than not Injuries updates are depressing but needed. If they don't get Dunne sorted out there'll be a riot. |  | | |

I have worked with Autistic adults for many years, and have friends with Aspergers.
The tone is staccato and nerd like, not criticism in anyway, but that's often how many with autism present and he is very literally by way of responses.
A lack of social niceties ie it's tough for people as social cues aren't able to be recognised.
And many try and fit in, by learned behaviour ie copying what they think is required.
Also, he could well be high functioning aspergers, ie he clearly has high intelligence, but his manner of communication is intense, different and very matter of fact.
It's a tough condition to live with, as people can misunderstand those with it, and clearly there can be a massive variation in where people are considered to be on the spectrum.
Obviously some have it more severely, did work in a home with non verbal autistic, which is so so tough, but have known others that do work in accounts, IT and publishing and live a fairly normal life.
He could not be obviously. But his performance at the fans forum suggested a detached and different way of communicating with less awareness of how people are viewing himself. And although this communication suggests this, it could be just an AI print out basically also.
And again, if he has had some input into the analysis of data, again another possible trait that an autistic person may adapt too.
And then the 11 years experience quote suggests a lack of social awareness too. Ie at 26, most people are aware that's complete BS, but his own personal lack of awareness may be explained that he again is not aware of this everyday social cue.
Wasn't saying at all that he is 100% autistic but there a lot of aspects of how he comes across, the way he can communicate in a staccato manner, and learned responses, and at same time clearly having intelligence.
Just said it was autistic in nature...
I hope your family members Stainrod, are able to live their best life and get the support they need. It's a tough condition to live with no doubt.
A friend of mine follows Gary Numan who is diagnosed Aspergers and the rituals he has to go through to get on stage, is very impressive that he manages to perform.
Oh and my comment about him reading loftforwords and changing his ideas was just my own flippant attempts at humour. Wasn't suggesting it was true !! [Post edited 28 Dec 9:33]

Personally, i'd prefer a short weekly blog from each head of department filtered through Morrisey (Paul not the other one).
That would feel a bit warmer and a bit more inclusive. The key would be for it to be all true and without spin though which just isn't QPR's forte is it? [Post edited 28 Dec 10:34]

As a parent of two high functioning autistic teenagers, I would agree the signs may be there. From the niche but super detailed interest in French football and establishing a website covering this through to the coms style. I would imagine he would come across as deeply impressive as he reals off some stats and details about some 3rd tier Portuguese player. There is not a thing my daughter at the age of 12 could not tell you about the Greeks and Roman gods at 13 she is studying biology a-level text books because she wants to be a doctor. But on the other hand she has little or no perception in reading people but expects everyone to be able to read her. Its not some savant ability it pure 10,000 hours and hyper focus on niche stuff.
There are levels to this stuff, my sons is quite mild, my daughters is very extreme with a whole load of other MH issues that come with it. |  | | |

Tough for you Baz. Hope you cope ok with it all.
What with them coming into the teenage years too.
Possibilities that they can grow up and live as near to normal lives as is possible.
It does happen so wish you all best absolutely. | |

This will be the last thing I’ll say on this matter as I’m boring myself never mind every other poor bugger reading my replies trying to explain myself .
Just deleted a long post/explanation explaining what I mean and why I think you display worrying politics of envy signs but it’s not worth either of our time as maybe you are right and I just need to accept that there really isn’t any point trying to get you to understand my point and I’m even explaining myself here poorly. What I know doesn’t come into it, but clearly there are people on here , who know more than they are allowed to say ? But that gets completely under your skin.
So I think what I’m trying to understand is why it’s now your whole mission to stand and defend someone you have never met and don’t know personally ? Every post on every thread ? When it’s plain to see, that some folk are much more well informed than others (again, not me at all )
Peculiar behaviour. But anyway …
Have a happy new year Ned. [Post edited 28 Dec 17:12]

My God, 312 on teletext. Happy days.
When I was very young, 8 or 9, so early/mid 80s, we didn't have a TV with Teletext. So if i missed the Classified results on Granstand I had to wait for Sunday paper. Going shopping in Kingston with my parents I recall standing outside Rumbelows or some TV rental place, watching the scores.
Happy days. | | | |
