Re: Edmo Gone
when managers at clubs are having a poor run or are struggling, you often hear whispers and rumours where they have been given x number of games to save their job, Brendan Rodgers springs to mind and even Jose in his current plight. I can't ever remember where a chairman has ever come out and so pub...

Re: The Darren Edmondson Thread
1. To be higher in the league than the club’s current position – not meaning that Barrow must win the next six games. - NO 2. To raise the level of consistency of performances in matches. NO - Weve been consistantly bad in our last 3 games. 3. To show a high level of tactical awareness to meet diff...

Re: Paul Casson has what it takes.
It will be interesting to see whether Edmo bows to the pressure and will give Young Newby a start. It was clear in his interview that PC was making a direct reference to Newby when he mentioned he wanted to see exciting young local players given a chance. While that may be what a lot of people want ...

Re: The Darren Edmondson Thread
The problem is, people who are very successful in business often think they can instantly replicate that success in football, and they can't understand that the same logic doesn't apply. Football is s totally unique business. I would suggest PC knows naff all about football and to expect the team to...

Re: The Darren Edmondson Thread
Why would he not just say to Edmo in private, "look I'm not happy, you've got a month to turn it around or I'm getting someone in who can" Why come out and go to the press and say that in public? Can't see what that achieves, it's very tinpot and show a lack of respect to Edmo if you ask m...

Re: Bromley match thread
Great story Mr Peru. Still 2 leagues higher So You can count, well done, however you have missed my point in spectacular fashion, I simply wanted to offer an insight into our experience under Edmo as you seem to be having a similar experience and a debate amongst yourselves as to whether he's doing...

Re: Bromley match thread
Edmo led us (Wukkie eh) to Conf North play offs, but that was with a squad of decent players inherited from Tommy Cassidy. After that, year on year he gradually diluted the quality of the squad with bad signings and things got worse year on year. Granted our budget was non existent and on the face o...

Re: Darren Edmondson Signs
And until the Celtic Nation bubble pops, he'll find it difficult to attract the best locals, we had some trialists over the summer and Celtic Nation nicked the best of them, you just have to look at some of the players they've signed and the money their chucking around £600 a week, plus there's much...

Re: Darren Edmondson Signs
Strangely when pressed in that interview on local players - Edmo's response was "People keep telling me there is local talent but I just don't see it" so it remains to be seen what his plans are for introducing local players. He's a good bloke, very approachable and the players seem to li...

Re: New Manager
This is what you'll get from Edmo He's a good man manager - the players like him and he creates a happy camp He has good contacts - he's brought in some good loan players for us over the last few seasons which have helped keep us up He plays rotten football - lumps it up to the front man for the mid...

Re: Nick rushton
A balanced view on Arnison from up the road The lad is a great finsher - no doubt about that, and his goal tally might have been even higher had Edmo not persisted with playing him on the wing for large spells (where he looked like a fish out of water and disappeared from games). He takes a great pe...
