That's got lost in the thread, but it's a great point. Under Hughton young players had to complete a rigorous set of training sessions with the first team before being considered. We've got players not even in the 18 (Ali J) who were first teamers last season and a new start for the U23s. Andone...
Have you got a Masters in Leadership and Emotional Intelligence then? Has Hughton? Potter has. I'd trust his reaction. quite frankly.
Tell you what, if Andone gets another straight red before Christmas I'll donate £20 to REMF. Care to take the opposite bet?
Yeah, he should have publicly flogged him on his way down the tunnel and made him get the train home with the fans :facepalm:
I'd trust a manager who has traditionally got the best out of just about anyone to know what to do when he was sent off. I'd stake a few quid that, while he gave him...
Andone is clearly a red card waiting to happen. He's like it in every single game. I can't decide if he's been trained to take out opponents in his formative years, in which case he's not very good at it, or he's a nutter, in which case I wonder what he's like in training.
The "money ball"...
