Is that Rasherford?

 

[old blue]

Is that Rasherford?

Is he English or Danish? :-)

 

[Ted_Bovis]

99% of gargoyles look like Bob Todd though. Jones must be the missing 1%

Half man. Half biscuit.

 

[mat]

Who are we going for now that Haaland is joining them?

Alfie coming out of retirement?

 

[Blue Mist]

Oh dear.
Manu Sawhney is a director at the rags (and yes that is his name) and has been for 10 years
He has just been sacked as the Chief Executive of the ICC after it was found he had bullied colleagues and exhibited acts of physical aggression towards staff.
Similar allegations were proved against him 4 years ago and as a result he was forced to resign from Singapore Sports Hub. Apparently the Glazers and rag media are refusing to comment.

He seems to be a perfect fit for the scum.

Oh and it must be pointed out that in no way is he related to that other bullying wanker Bryan Riggs.

Just heard the crass of 92 mentioned a couple of times with people like John Higgins and Mark Williams, there was another non footballer named too in this insidious dripdrip of rag crap

Fucking cringe worthy.

 

[BrianW]

The difference between a gargoyle and a grotesque is that the former is a water spout and the latter isn't. Phil Jones could, however, model for either.

 

[Tracking back]

Oooooh I like this game.
My go:

What is baconface?

A megalomaniac catastrophic excuse of a human being.

Kieran McKenna and Michael Carrick are not respected by the Manchester United players​

The Manchester United team do not have complete confidence in their coaching staff, according to a new report.
Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer delegates training responsibilities almost entirely to his coaching staff, consisting principally of Michael Carrick and Kieran McKenna, among others.

And the credentials and experience of these two coaches, as discussed in an article here recently, is sometimes questioned by the players, according to The Athletic.
‘Sources close to several senior players have said they feel training could be led by coaches with greater elite experience,’ the report claims.

‘McKenna’s previous experience had been coaching under-18s teams at Tottenham and then United, before Mourinho promoted him to his first-team staff.
‘The Athletic has been told his approach can, at times, be schoolmasterly. There may or may not be substance to that but these are also familiar complaints from players when results begin to turn.

‘A well-placed associate said McKenna has the potential to go on to manage a top-six Premier League club, such is his level of diligence and research when preparing. Others, though, question whether he possesses the requisite charisma.
‘Very occasionally, Solskjaer or Phelan will aggressively let rip in the dressing room, such as after the 3-2 second-leg defeat by Roma in April’s Europa League semi-final (United had won the first leg 6-2 at home) or half-time recently against Villarreal, but that is not McKenna’s personality.
‘More than one well-placed source insisted McKenna commands respect from players through the manner of his set-up but conceded that when he asks them to push past a comfort zone they might subconsciously question his pedigree.’

There is a feeling from The Athletic’s exposé that whilst the players perhaps doubt both Carrick and McKenna’s credentials, Carrick has a more amenable personality, meaning that he is more accepted than the former Tottenham academy man.
Many recent critiques of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as manager of United have referenced the coaching team he has at his disposal and whether that is the weakest aspect of his management.
Former player and coach Nicky Butt is cited as saying that Solskjaer does not micro-manage and delegates a lot.

However, ‘some sources The Athletic has spoken to feel the collegiate approach means the 48-year-old former striker is not decisive enough at some key moments.’
In other words, Solskjaer’s hands-off approach to coaching will only work if the people he has trusted to do the job deliver. Whether Carrick and McKenna are doing that is increasingly being questioned, even, it would seem, by the Manchester United players.




Hilarious stuff.

"He delegates a lot" - probably to the looming Scot in the shadows who, just like Darth Sidious, obviously can't be shown to be the man actually driving the bus. No wonder they're in a mess.

That was a good read. It’s nice to know that there is a lack of harmony at the Swamp.
