Coaching Qualifications

They count for sod all if you can't get the basics right and have no common sense. Everyone could see from the first half shambles that the team selection and tactics weren't working. We were getting overrun on the right hand side where Virtue looked well off the pace and blowing after 10 minutes. Then Connolly on the right side of the back three I don't need to say anything as we all know his limitations. This left Gabriel covering for three and being pegged back negating his forward runs. There was zilch creativity in the middle due to Norburn being so ponderous and the aforementioned virtue ineffective. Morgan our only creative player was then played out of position. It was all so obvious to everyone apart from Critchley who then sends the same team and formation out for the second half. He really is so negative and boring that it is unbelievable to think he is supposed to be a top coach. I am sure there are plenty of Sunday league managers with no qualifications that could go a better job. Also why on earth was he given a second chance in the first place after the way he dropped us in it. What other company would do that. I thought Sadler was supposed to be a top businessman. It all beggars belief.
 
We kind of got away with it in the first half only being 1 0 down, that was the opportunity to make 3 subs and change things.
Connolly, Virtue and Beesley were nowhere near what was needed, and the formation wasn't working.
Peterborough had so much time, they made the pitch look big in a good way, our lot made the pitch look big in a bad way!!
I new he wouldn't do much at half time but couldn't believe how little he did, how could he send the same 11 out for the second half?
The squad needs a massive overhaul, is Critchley the man we want to oversee this?
 
As the old adage goes “ those who can do, those who can’t teach”. Being a youth coach where results are secondary is a world away from being the manager of a professional football team, where results are everything.

Teaching is a highly skilled job, if done well, and is well beyond the capabilities of most people. And very few people who follow Blackpool could coach the team every day and get results. The day to day training would go to s hit in most people's hands.

The most succinct part of your reply is “if done well”.

There are good and bad practitioners in every profession. Like my brother once said, other jobs seemed like a piece of piss after teaching.

I think your taking my quote completely out of context. I was talking about teaching/ coaching football and the relevant lack of playing experience of all our first team coaches. Not the teaching profession itself. But of course you knew that all along and just fancied going off piste.
