Poll - next Walsall manager

Well those were the ones that happened :man_shrugging:

Sadler pixxxg this I see with a grand total of 18% support from fans :joy: :joy:

And yes the Doncaster performance totally down to o Kelly

Alexander or artell would be good

Well, and half their first team missing.

The question is “who do think will get it?”
Not “who do you want?”
I’m not saying Sadler would win that poll but you’re drawing the wrong conclusion from the result (not for the first time)

Make your mind up cos that was quickly edited from 10 missing to half.

8 of the starting line up played the previous week in the 1-0 win at an in form Colchester. Arguably they were still in the side on merit.

Just to help you with some basic Math…so far 4 more people have voted for Cowley than Sadler. That’s not particularly overwhelming at this moment. It may well change but with such a small number voting using a % as a means to an argument is a schoolboy error :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I was looking at squad appearances not match appearances.

But it was missing:

Their first choice keeper, Luke Molyneaux, Ben Close, George Miller, Kieran Aguard, Ro Shaun-Williams, James Maxwell, Kyle Knowle, Tom Anderson and Adam Clayton.

So ten of the top 14 rather than 11, not that far off, but we’ll done on catching the edit :joy:

Now that’s cleared up, back on the block list :+1:t3:

:joy::joy::joy:

Pretending to have me blocked all season.

Some weeks it must’ve had you in real pain.

Glad I drew you out :+1:

He won’t get it. I reckon everyone knows including those at the club that the improved football against Doncaster was down to Okelly

Look at the shite football whilst he was coach. Oh yes sorry… ‘wasn’t allowed to flourish under Flynn’ :joy: :stuck_out_tongue:

Nah I just knew some pedant would see that, and right I was. You wouldn’t be on the blocked list at all if you could take a point without responding 2 posts to one, or name adding people who aren’t even talking to you, but unfortunately you can’t.

Like I say that’s enough of that, DM if you want anymore details so as not to clog up the thread.

O.kelly is the most important capture we could make. Him and Sadler I hope .

Well there’s the difference between us, regardless of who I like or don’t, agree with or don’t or who posts too much and who doesn’t, I don’t block anyone because believe it or not I can allow an opinion I don’t agree with without having to reply regardless. (Sometimes :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:)

I didn’t name add you. I added your name to a list as a bit of light humour to make another point. I deliberately didn’t @ you because it wasn’t aimed at or to you and thought I was blocked anyway.

Any more details on what? Not sure what else I could need details on to warrant a DM :man_shrugging:

Anyway I have you higher on the list of preferred candidates than @geordiesaddler so you should be happy!!

I may have to review that on the basis that he does at least have a sense of humour and that will be needed for the top job here :rofl::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Don’t worry, you are now.

Good because I knew some pedant would check to see if anyone on his block list would reply…and you did

:joy::joy::joy::joy:

I tried.

We’ll be working with a fresh plan and a fresh vision from here on. I believe in building a structure, a system, and a culture where a manager can come in if (and only if) they fit that strategy, and be a part of our building process. Said another way, we need to build a crystal clear football strategy, and identify the correct manager to fit into that picture, and create the best possible environment for that manager to succeed.

As for stats and analytics. I’ve said many times that they are a pivotal part of the success of clubs that were our erstwhile comtemporaries, examples being Brighton and Brentford, and I’ve also quoted Sunderland. While other clubs went out and spaffed fortunes on signing Brighton’s players, Newcastle went out and signed Brighton’s head of recruitment :wink: These clubs have achieved remarkable success by having a clear strategy, and structures which are supported by both the above and importantly INVESTMENT. Not stupid money, but investment in the football side with a view to providing both success and future financial return from said investment - something which Trivela should be interested in if they are serious.

That is palpably different from turning every match thread into a boring navel gazing exercise, typified by the same posters ping-ponging dozens of posts that either blow smoke up their favourite players arse or alternatively gob off their hobby horse boo boy who is blamed for everything (delete as appropriate) week in week out, with stats being brought in as the latest “tool” to support the same tired old opinions in an attempt to make said posters look more clevererer than the rest of us. Most of whom can quite happily watch a game and have an opinion without resorting to nausiating pedantry in the “virtual pub” of Sunday afternoon on UTS.

Artell, I think he fits everything that Trivela want to implement.
