Has someone left this role that we’re replacing, or was it one of the shared roles that now needs a specific person per Cat 1 requirements? Do you have any views on this appointment? I can’t see the LinkedIn link but if he’s ex City/United he’s presumably got good experience. I’ve always been (very...

Read my post again.......

I was saying that jobs would now be advertised that didn't exist pre-Cat 1

They did exist. Blondeclaret is spot on.

Was at Dusseldorf ‘88 when Van Basten scored the hat-trick that knocked England out and to think the Dutch press wanted him dropped before that match. He went on to have a magnificent career. Geoff Hurst was fantastic and should have moved on from West Ham. He did move on from West Ham. He went to ...

Wish him good look. He has been dealt a couple of bad hands at Hudds and Swansea. The Hudds team he inherited was absolutely garbage. I saw them a hand full of times last year and he did well to have them near the play offs. They have had a proper clear out in the summer so hopefully another ex cla...

Oh ok I didn't realise club chairmen had to meet the fans.

Doesn’t have to be a chairman but at our club it always is. We have a CEO now but he appears to be very much in the background.

They mentioned it on the highlights programme and I'm sure it was something like 6 late goals. They've been given Leeds' luck.

Their earliest winning goal this season was 83 minutes against Arsenal. They’ve scored in stoppage time in every other game.

If people on here went to the forum and asked difficult questions he would just stop doing them and prevent other fans who want to interact with him from being able to do so.

It’s a requirement

at least you knew, I watched it and thought it was going to extra time :lol: There were people getting up from their seats in the stand at the final whistle just assuming it was a draw. To be honest I think it's a nonsense. If it's a league game and it's a draw why not just leave it at one point ea...

Why did it go to pens on Tuesday if both clubs get a point for the draw?

It's competition rules, after a draw you take part in a penalty shoot-out for an extra point. Our club doesn't seem to know that and think Solihull Moors got three points and us none although it's 2 and 1.

AI has to be a very useful tool in scouting, but it can't be the only tool. It can't measure temperament or attitude for example.

When you don’t do background checks it causes dressing room problems. Thankfully we are back to doing that with Parker.

I thought he was going to get a trademark goal with one of them, the one the goalkeeper fumbled.

Putting youngsters in pressure situations like penalty shoot outs can only help them progress.

They take them in knock out competitions though.

Not much to take from that. Quite impressed with Williams at the back. Bevan looked a threat, but quite rusty after coming on. Given his size and attributes, he looks like he could do a job at Solihull’s level. Might get a loan in Jan? Bevan went to Carlisle last season on loan. First time he’s pla...

I can never quite get my head round having a penalty shoot out when you are playing group games.

Not sure what the dispute is.
Coleman is captain on paper but not in team and at 36, unlikely to replace O'Brien, bar injury to O'B. Tarkowski captain the team on the pitch, until the blue moon.

There isn’t a dispute, Coleman is captain.

Can’t say any of it excites me or improves my pre match experience but maybe I’m in a minority. A natural atmosphere was created walking past the away fans in the cricket club on the way to the ground but can’t do that anymore.

Far from exciting - thousands of us have been inconvenienced

and an absolute necessity for a ragù as a basis for spag bol and lasagna.
But more importantly, a Waldorf salad would not exist without celery.

I use celery in so many different things although I don't eat it like my dad did, he used to get a stick of celery and fill the trough with salt to eat.

What do the rules say about where a player can’t stand from a PK? Presumably they at least need to be behind the ball? Appreciate there’s no major advantage if you can’t touch the ball from a saved PK, but could a player go and stand next to the penalty spot without the ref blowing? All players (ot...

Rumour has it that they were still paying his old contract, so in that sense it's a saving for the club to reappoint him. They were paying 2 managers last week (Wilder ex-manager, Selles current) and now they're still paying 2 managers (Selles ex-manager, Wilder current). I think that's exactly how...

When a new manager is appointed it is often the case that the next set of fixtures are winnable games. Charlton at home next followed by Oxford away.

And Wilder was the manager who got Oxford back into the league.

When did they alter the rules regarding injured players not leaving the pitch after treatment?. It was obvious nobody in the crowd knew about it yesterday.

Been a rule for some years now. If it’s a foul and there’s a card then the injured player doesn’t need to leave the pitch after treatment.

do they have VAR to check inside or outside the penalty area?

That check will have been done. From what I've seen of it from TV coverage since, it's close, but it does look inside the box.

Coleman will be 'Club Captain', although no longer expected to play. Tarkowski is team captain, on a regular basis, if he plays.

Not according to Everton.
