Not sure why such a bad hand makes you stand on the touch line screaming at your hundred mile an hour son to stop and pass back like?
Broadfoot was pretty solid once he got going.Robinson ? Don’t know him
Davies Osbourne Broadfoot and Bishop were not championship players
Think he’s only been there since the Jan window?I only just realised that Tom is on loan at Reading, made 3 appearances this season, that's a stat that will soon change!
Already sat in the stands though, presumably in the chairman's ear, same reason he got the job here.Seriously, how the fuck can any club even consider Ince for the managers job? He has not managed anyone for eight years, he was potted from job after job before he was sussed out, on what basis have Reading given him the gig? It can't be on his CV which absolutely stinks of failure time after time, in his last four jobs at Blackburn, MK Dons, Notts County and Blackpool he lasted less than 12 months at all of them, seriously what does that tell any prospective new employer?
They deserve everything that's coming their way, absolutely clueless.
Agree with thatUndoubtedly a good player, but sadly lacking in intellect. His interviews are shockers. Another example of a manager given a chance on his name and not his talent or intelligence.
So many young coaches have studied hard, read widely and interview well but don’t have a stellar playing career. These are the ones you want to go for owners…. even if you still aren’t sure look at the background of Mourinho, Wenger, Paisley, Critch etc.

Tell Ian Evatt that!Yes the football was crap but the players weren’t the best most were donkeys

Can’t remember whether it was @utmp or @SeasidersPodcast but one of them had an interview with Ben Burgess which touched on playing under ‘The Guv’nor’ at Notts … wasn’t flattering…The Twitter link below is his last few games in charge at Notts County before we inherited him....

I recall he lost his last 10 at Notts County before being sacked and got 1 point in his last 9 with us before the sack. So, in the final games that got him sacked at his last 2 clubs, he managed to gain 1 point in 19 games. That a club can decide he is a capable manager 8 years after his last job, basically smacks of them giving up this season. I wonder if he's actually acting as a volunteer and it is therefore saving Reading the wage of a manager.The Twitter link below is his last few games in charge at Notts County before we inherited him....

And Klopp.Undoubtedly a good player, but sadly lacking in intellect. His interviews are shockers. Another example of a manager given a chance on his name and not his talent or intelligence.

Yeah Pep is like the perfect storm. Great footballer and a deep thinker.And Klopp.
Then again Guardiola was one of the great players of his era.
606 next Saturday. He's got to go.Villa have 5 points from their last 7 games. While Rangers go to Dortmund and score 4...
How long does Stevie G have?!
Ince after last night's game:-
"I know how to manage. I've done it before.
My CV is as good as any person's"
