Hopkin laying into player recruitment

Sounds like he's getting it in early before we get beat Saturday, although I do agree with him.

 

Yorkshire post reckon we might make another signing before tomorrow.

 

Sounds to me like its the end of Edin's totalitarian rule - wouldn't have thought this type of interview would have been sanctioned a few months ago.

 

It was @oxonluke who posted : we're also signing Jordan Graham from wolves in January,been training with us since the start of the month, so it can be done.

 

Wouldnt that be a great for our club, New Year, new start .

 

Be even better if he pissed off and left our club FULL STOP.

 

Well done to that man for coming out and saying what the other managers this year couldn't/or wouldn't.

After watching the team it's as obvious as saying waters wet like, but at least it's out there from the main professional at the club.

 

Excuses.

Needs results now.

We all know the recruitment has been poor.

However, let's face facts. Hopkin's results have been shocking.

Come the transfer window we could be down, all efforts need to be done coaching the players you have now and getting better results.

 

I totally agree with DH's comments.

However, due to the critical situation at the club, I'm yet to get a better understanding of how his mind works in dealing with players.
He's openly criticised his squad, he has also praised and defended them. How much this is a deliberate method of his to motivate his squad, I don't know. Or how much is true of his feelings at post match interview.

I feel today's article is a honest one, wearing his heart on his shirt he's basically telling us there's players here that are not what he wants. There's almost a feel of he's given up on several members of the squad, they must know who they are.
The door won't be shut, but the ball will be 100% in the players court now to self-motivate and adapt, letting DH know they want to be part of the great escape.

I doubt you'll see much (if anything) of Reeves, Jones and Scannell again.
McCarten will be sold.
The play-off finalist Bradford City had a weak underbelly, but it's spine was strong, the current squad hasn't even a spine, to have any chance, that needs addressing immediately that window opens.
A few seasoned battlers and warriors in the DH mould need to be brought in for that 20th place scramble, they'll be no Marquee's on the shortlist.
The club at this moment can neither attract them nor needs them.

DH is the last bullet in the chamber, it's our last shot, he fails, we're in league two, debating his managerial abilities may as well wait until Summer. If we do hit 20th spot, it'll compare with the open top bus ride Mr Richmond organised for Jagger and co haha

 

Looks like our friend Rahics dream has hit the rails...good riddance to bad rubbish, well done DH for telling what it is a shambles.

 

****WINNER*****

 

Hopefully it's a sign that it's the end of Edin's association with the club.

Maybe the fly by bannner should say Auf weidersehen Edin.

 

This is exactly how PP worked when he came im, basically told the dead wood like Branston they weren't good enough and made them train away from the 1st team, only difference is he had the load window to help him

 

Maybe, maybe not. Who knows.

 

Sacked in the morning.

 

I can't see any negatives with regards Edin not being at our club.

 

Don't players have to be signed the day before the match to be able to play in that match? If so to be able to play on 1st January would mean signing on 31st December but the window doesn't open till midnight on 31st.
