    At least we now know his opinion is based on expertise and qualifications rather than guessing. Cheers Dennis.

    I didn’t dismiss his view , I asked for his qualifications which others have kindly provided then I would readily accept his opinion , but not from a third party without a link . Not sure why you didn’t respond to my question in the first place. If you knew, why sit on it? You knew…………but didn’t mention it , so what was the point ?

    If I / we didnt know what his credentials were how could one dismiss them out of hand ….? I don’t treat third party unsupported opinion as “ credentials “ ie yours.

    Rod did it the right way,

    Have they managed to get on the front pitch though with the bad weather?

    Also not sure how long the issues go back but Alexander has actually alluded to a lack of training taking place due to all the matches taking place recently. Gameday, rest, analysis, gameday etc. Perhaps this is also having an affect

    You are right that’s exactly what he said, “ little time between games” .

    Does putting the word in “ apparantly “ make it correct? It was something posted on the font of all knowledge and accuracy Peter….Twatter.

    There’s a long way to go yet, but young enough to realise Twitter is for true believers of absolutely anything they read on social media.

    I forgot Trueman was still here until they mentioned him on the radio a few home games back. They said since GA came in, Trueman spends the games sat with the data analytics team.

    I saw Trueman last week in the new-ish Costa down by Victoria Mills. Don't know if he'd just had a big training session or is beefing up, but he looked like he'd been hitting the weights, his shoulders were testing the stitching on that Macron training gear!

    I got to page 5 and couldn't be arsed reading an argument so skipped away to the end to add a point regarding injuries.

    Obviously the quality of training etc counts, but surely playing three times on a heavy pitch can't be helping the players? I know it plays ok, but it must be harder to run on and there's surely more chance of an injury? I'm no expert but it seems like common sense.

    Disagree entirely. He is not the scapegoat you are looking for.

    Not scapegoating him, never criticised him. Just pointing out a fact. Move him on, he's in league with the curse of the Holy Well.
