Newport County Boss 'Blasts' Oscar Garcia







Cheshire Cat

The most curious thing..
He is complaining about the lack of chances for home grown managers, and does have a point. Garcia is just being used as an example since he doesn't have a major track record either (yet).

What's his opinion of himself denying a Welsh born and bred Manager the chance to manage Newport County?

Excellent point.. you would make a fine journalist!

But what has he done to earn the chance?

Yes he can be applauded for 'learning his trade' instead of Paul Ince-ing it, who goes someway to keeping the British manager stereotype in place.
But if Justine hasn't actually learned anything in his 10 years of non league, why should be expect a job?

“I don’t know Garcia but, for me, there’s a lot of good, young managers here who have been successful that I feel could do a better job at Brighton than him – and that disappoints me.

lol nice example to use and could he not of got his point across without naming anyone?

Ironic that he's an English manager managing a Welsh club then !!

Maybe he should get his head out of his arse and look at the way we play, that's why we appointed a foreign manager like Oscar. I mean when was the last ENGLISH manager to win the ENGLISH Premier League ? Clubs don't appoint English managers as foreign ones are a better calibre - simple.

He was presumably asked about his upcoming opponents and what he knew about our new manager.

“Don’t get me wrong, I’m going to fail"
And that is why you were not considered for the vacancy.:wanker:

"Blasts" ha ha, typical tabloid headline.But as for content, I would normally agreed with mr Edinburgh's sentiment about promoting young managers from this country, but I believe we're not in s position to do that. We're a club looking to go to the prem and promoting an untested young manager from non league or one of the same old stale management merry go round faces wasn't an option. Oscar ticks all the boxes that we required young, has shown early success and plays with the same football ethos that we've all come to love. The fact Edinburgh says he knows nothing about him says it all really

Be interested to know what his record was like at Billericay, Rushden & Diamonds etc.

Did he not get offered bigger jobs because of prejudices against English managers, or because he was actually a bit rubbish?

That was the same with Poyet three years ago. We won that one, the current gamble is unproven yet.
