He could/should be playing higher but this is where money comes into non league football. Basford have some serious backing behind them at the moment and big plans. They've upgraded the infrastructure and playing surfaces and they have a full time academy, with a link to a local college, and a massive junior section. The lower aspects of the club are self sufficient leaving the sponsorship and backing to be solely focused on the first team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M42Owl Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 I don't wish FDB any ill will but I suspect that in 18 months he'll be back in league 1 or, at best, at a bottom half championship team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t get this to be honest (not the Scott Twine bit) - how can we realistically be linked with any players just now when we don’t have a manager? He might not fancy any of the players we might be ‘looking at’ behind the scenes, or who DM might have wanted/shortlisted. It’s not the greatest position to be in as a club right now, is it?

mkowlthesexynewversion Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 It's pretty simple really, DC has spelt it out. The manager does not pick the players, at best he contributes to the discussion. Read Soccernomics, bit out of date now but really sets out the modern approach. You have a squad of players A head coach comes in to manage that squad of players If the head coach isn't performing you get rid of him, not the players.

Please not Paul Ince 😬 Apart from its a head coach these days not manager So no you wouldn't come with uncertainty surrounding who your coach will be, but players presumably grasp the idea, that they come to play for a Club not a Manager these days. Eg players will join Brentford because of the culture promoted, less that Thomas Frank is the manager Edited June 25, 2023 by mkowlthesexynewversion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheExile Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Whilst we have a pretty crude way of doing it and without a formal Sporting Director it’s quite common for potential targets to be dealt with by people other than the manager ie club rather than manager targets. Hopefully someones speaking to players and agents otherwise we are Donald ducked for the free agents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On paper of course but neither of those two new boys would give you the option smith does (hard work, physicality, aerial presence in both boxes) which is always handy in any league IMO. Don’t think smith will be first choice but hopefully we keep hold or get someone similar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheExile Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 All about opinions I guess but I see Dawson as a top end L1 and lower end champ keeper.
