    My take on it is because Abbott does the recruitment checks he can't manage as well so Collins and Drury do that side but i believe Abbott calls the shots.

    I suspect he has learned a lot by playing the teams he has so far.

    He will have given instructions and then looked to see which players are capable of following them. Just because we don't win a game doesn't mean nothing has been learned.

    You are so short sighted its untrue.

    I’ve loved the forums in whatever guise they’ve come in but recently it seems most are looking for someone to blame for a season that hasn’t happened yet

    Can those people give me the lottery numbers for the euros but excuse me when I call you a dick when they don’t come in

    Then if that is the case that HE has no say,then take the honourable route, and do one.

    Abbott is the new manager simple as that, I called it early on, couple of puppets have been put up in front of him for when it goes tits up to take the flak.

    Isn't this the head coach who said winning is a great habit even friendlies ?.

    You were doing so well until once again your personal attacks, you really need to see someone about that, maybe Sergio is your man **so funny.

    So the result shows that the whole management team were completely devoid of any ideas whatsoever?

    That's what you are honestly saying eh?

    You are a fool to hang on to every word said by the club. Calling you short sighted wasn't a personal attack... it was an observation.

    Let's be fair. Delusion is thinking that things are going well when they clearly are not.

    I believe that was the gist of my reply,
    Don't take my word for it ask all the poor souls who witnessed that very poor display Tuesday night, I've yet to read any poster saying it was a good run out for the lads and we learnt anything about the players on the night.

    Have we actually played the real first 11 in these games ? The answer is a big fat NO. Wait until we see the first choice team actually play before we all start shouting the odds. We haven't finished with our recruitment yet as Collins stated we are still to strengthen,and once we have then we can judge the performances. I don't think Wyke and McCarten will be here at the start of the season and maybe a couple more will be gone. There's still plenty of work to be done on the squad especially if Wyke goes , and we certainly need to tell him he's got until the end of next week to get a deal done or he's staying regardless of any later bids coming in for him.

    We may have not played the first 11 but we've seen the lack of quality that will play when we get a few injuries/suspensions.
