Which young, ambitious managers who we've had at Spotland fit your criteria of 'showing promise', apart from Hill?
Simpson and Eyre certainly weren't, if you were craftily thinking along those lines. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

No, just suggesting that watching young managers and players develop is more interesting than watching journeymen, the vast majority of whom have been no more successful than either of the two you mentioned. We are now Accrington Stanley lookylikeys with nothing to distinguish us as Rochdale AFC. | | | |

I like what you're saying here BJ
I guess that's what was in our chairman's mind when he appointed Steve Eyre, and that's why I defended his action, albeit the end result was relegation.
I'm not happy to be seeing the same thing again, this time with Accy "used parts" added to the mix [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

Every manager is different, there is no correlation between age of bosses and players - they all build sides how they see fit.
Best example of this is Steve Parkin who was only 32 when he took over in 1999 and he filled his initial side with experienced lower league players (Evans, Flitcroft, Atkinson and Ford). The football was solid, unspectacular but crucially got results. |  |

It's ridiculous to blame him for what went on last season, after the shite he walked in to, this season is the real start. |
Lucas - Birmingham City
Holden - Walsall
Holness - MOM vs Burton
Long - Portsmouth
Widdowson - Northampton
Thompson - Tranmere
Jones - Bratford
Tutte - Still Here
BBM - Still Here
JLAA - Tranmere
Grimes - Still Here
Would suggest that most of the team we had last season are either still here or have potentially bettered themselves?
Most of the current squad has played with each other, which questions the 'time to gel' thought process.
I think we'll be fine, we need to get some consistancy and build from there, however the fact less than a handful of players completed a full 90 minutes pre-season, the 'run um hard' training mentality and 'they wont be getting a day off' shows exactly where we are in the managerial food chain! |  |

lillis had a much improved game
right back and young edwards for me again not good enough, yes they had to deal with a big strong player in zola but looked mistake ridden and sloppy in possession
cav cant pass
grimes had more positive touches then JK even when playing out of position
those saying we have no creativity tutte can be the man but even on saturday his game was being influenced by the utter shite around him
grimes deserved to start, hes our only player who actively looks to make runs and find space
grant out wide was laughable play him up top fgs
4 4 2 ???
we need someone who can run in behind or a fast winger
all too predictable
oh and the referee was shite

You are making some valid points, OD, but I seem to recall that after the Chesterfield or Torquay game - I forget which - you went off on one to a great extent about how crap things were. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

maybe so, right after the game, one was a 94th min equaliser, one a 4-2 heavy defeat, in the heat of the moment I probably said some things, never post when your angry as they say. I've always kept under the impression that its early in the season, and in the cold light of day we're still an evolving team. |  |
