Give it to Ron Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 According to the Echo...looks like it here Bit of propaganda I know but I for one needed to see this.
buctootim Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 What a pathetic PR piece. Really. Careful editing just of smiling faces and snowball fights backed with over jolly music. The Soviets would have been proud of that.
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Davis is to be let go for throwing that snowball.
Saint Charlie Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Sure the players will just get on with it.
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 What a pathetic PR piece. What exactly did you expect?
madruss Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Sure the players will just get on with it. Of course they will, just like they did when pardew left. Changing managers is part and parcel of the modern game
Mr Saints Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Davis is to be let go for throwing that snowball. To be fair it's the first time his distribution has found one of our forwards for months
trousers Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Embedded for convenience. Steady on Pap....people will start to suspect you're part of the propaganda machine....

Window Cleaner Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Of course they will, just like they did when pardew left. Changing managers is part and parcel of the modern game some of our posters never seem to have had a new boss though or if they did they'd probably sulk for weeks.
pap Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Really. Careful editing just of smiling faces and snowball fights backed with over jolly music. The Soviets would have been proud of that. I dunno. Stalin would probably be most unimpressed by the lack of wholesale murder, and would probably have "purged" the management before promptly airbrushing them out of history. At best, Adkins and Crosby would be performing hard labour in permanent Siberian exile. Is this what's happened here? Is this puff piece just a smokescreen to hide a modern day Katyn massacre, or do you think you might be overreacting?
Lord Duckhunter Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Pretty pathetic and a bit disrespectful towards Nigel if you ask me. There was never any doubt in my mind that the players will just get on with it. They are used to changes, managers coaches other players leave all the time. They will still want to prove themselves to the new guy as they will want to play in the Premiership. For every player sad that Nigel's gone, there will be one pleased that he may now get a chance or be used in the proper position. You don't get 20 Argie caps and play in la liga by being a mug, so he'll know a bit about the game, how to run a session, and also have a decent touch if involved. Early doors, they'll be respectful and enthusiastic, it's whether he can maintain and grow that ,which will make or break his career here.
pap Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Steady on Pap....people will start to suspect you're part of the propaganda machine.... Imagine my pleasant surprise when I discovered we still had the same team. Judging from some of the comments so far, I'm rather surprised that Cortese's equivalent of the NKVD didn't swoop in and "neutralise" players that might not be politically reliable. So it's lovely to seem them alive and kicking today, despite NA's departure.
trousers Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 I'm sure if the club hadn't published any video or photos of this training session some people would be accusing them of concealing how upset the players were...
pap Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 I'm sure if the club hadn't published any video or photos of the training sessions some people would be accusing them of concealing how upset the players were... Just like if Nige had been canned without a replacement, they'd be moaning about that too.

St Chalet Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Embedded for convenience. Good to see they cannot even spell his name. PR101 fail.
Spudders Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Just like if Nige had been canned without a replacement, they'd be moaning about that too. Exactly as happened after Pards was given the boot!
Saint Charlie Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 The decision has been made, the club won't a be apologetic about it and Pochettino needs a fair crack from the start. We all want him to be successive even if we don't agree with the circumstances of his appointment.
Olallana Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 I'm sure if the club hadn't published any video or photos of this training session some people would be accusing them of concealing how upset the players were... this!

trousers Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Just like if Nige had been canned without a replacement, they'd be moaning about that too. Surely you're not suggesting that football fans are as fickle as our chairman....?
pap Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Don't get carried away pap, that video could be a fake using look-alikes and digital technology! Kelvin did put in an accurate throw. Perhaps that was Andy Serkis' motion captured performance. The real players are locked in a series of changing room lockers across municipal aqua centres in the south.

I would have been more convinced it was a fake if Kelvin hadn’t put the snow ball straight down the middle

badgerx16 Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Cortese's equivalent of the NKVD ..... Nikola Kortezie Vnutrennikh Del ?
SOTONS EAST SIDE Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 FERK ME! Does it matter who manages the team, as long as we are successful!!
DrZuess1979 the 2nd Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 What did you all expect Players sitting crying and giving evil looks at the new guy
Bearsy Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 FERK ME! Does it matter who manages the team, as long as we are successful!! Sure but frequent changes to the football management is unlikely to assist in winning stuff. Not my words, Nicola Cortese.
Spudders Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Sure but frequent changes to the football management is unlikely to assist in winning stuff. Not my words, Nicola Cortese. Which is all the more reason to believe that Cortese hasn't taken this decision lightly!
Dig Dig Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 The decision has been made, the club won't a be apologetic about it and Pochettino needs a fair crack from the start. We all want him to be successive even if we don't agree with the circumstances of his appointment. I agree he needs to get a fair crack of the whip. However, just as I had a really good feeling about Adkins appointment I have my reservations about this one. I hope I'm wrong but at this stage of the season he has no room for error and there are as many things stacked against him then for him. IMO of course

Turkish Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Well someone has made Shaw delete his "tweet" from yesterday. Make of that what you will. which one was that?
S-Clarke Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Well someone has made Shaw delete his "tweet" from yesterday. Make of that what you will. Not sure if you saw, but some fans wrote Adkins in the snow outside SMS - almost within minutes they were ushered away, and a team of people came out of St Mary's to brush it away. Incredibly petty and sad.

yellow&blue Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Anyone spot Gaston Ramirez? Or has he done a Tevez and refused to play in the cold?
Sour Mash Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 which one was that? Think all it said was something like "Confused lol", pretty harmless, but I guess anything less than absolute praise has to go.
Turkish Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 We can expect to see plenty more propganda over the coming weeks. On the UI site yesterday there were 2 or 3 brand new posters, all of which were going on about what a great decision it was to sack Adkins and how the new man will move the club forward. It was embarassingly obvious. The funniest post was one claiming they were 100% confident we'd stay up now the change had been made and we'd probably finish 14th or 15th. So right about where we are now then.
Window Cleaner Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Anyone spot Gaston Ramirez? Or has he done a Tevez and refused to play in the cold? he's there, right at the start.
Saint Charlie Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Anyone spot Gaston Ramirez? Or has he done a Tevez and refused to play in the cold? Was the first player in shot FFS.
Dig Dig Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Anyone spot Gaston Ramirez? Or has he done a Tevez and refused to play in the cold? He is there. Other than the fact that he comes from the same continent as Tevez, there is nothing to suggest he's a **** like Tevez is.
Colbury Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 Really. Careful editing just of smiling faces and snowball fights backed with over jolly music. The Soviets would have been proud of that. This made me lol.
DrunkenSaint Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 The club does not speak to The Echo, they make so much **** up it's unreal.
Thedelldays Posted 19 January, 2013 Posted 19 January, 2013 The club does not speak to The Echo, they make so much **** up it's unreal. are you suggesting the players have been crying or something..?
