Coaching - do we do any?

[Norman Baker suck my lozenge]

We've been very successful in coaching out the talent for which we bought a player,CMS and Baldock being two prime examples,worry is now that players are seeing this and not wanting to come near us with a barge pole.

In 4 seasons CMS never improved from appalling with his left or head.
You hear stories about individuals spending an hour on their weaknesses after general training, dedicated to improving
CMS spent that hour in the barbers

And of course, one of the main reasons that David Beckham developed into such a good dead ball player was due to the hours after hour of practice he put in. I'd like to think our supposed dead ball players put in the hours, but I doubt it.

No point in having Lancing if all the coaches on the payroll are cocks, Bloom should have paid for top line staff as part of the financing of the project

You do indeed get the feeling that we've just bought a top-of-the-range Mercedes.
But no one at the club has a clue how to drive it.

You assume he knows something about football. We know he can fund it but is he surrounding himself with the right people, it would seem not at the moment.

It seems accountants are more important than coaches and players at the Albion right now

Genuine question. Are you actually a fan of Brighton and Hove Albion?

 

[Norman Baker suck my lozenge]

Genuine answer ,yes,since 78,
Very disillusioned in the last couple of seasons though,will always have my season ticket but very,very worried in who is actually making the footballing decisions at the moment,something in the last two closed seasons has gone badly wrong.

Perhaps we should get Dean Wilkins back

I take your point, but given that the original post bemoaned our corners and free kicks, I'm not sure Dean Wilkins, scorer of one free kick approximately every three seasons, and master of wafting a corner straight to the first defender, is quite the man for the set piece side of things.

In fact, the more I watch JFC's corners, the more convinced I am that Wendy has already had a hand in his development somewhere along the line.
