Gordon Ramsay Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Cathro had the smackdown laid on him by a 12 year old girl who basically asked why Aberdeen, Celtic and Hibs are hungrier than us. Well done that lassie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin_T Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Brentford are the team that only care about stats are they not. That will be right up Cathro's street Presentations also from the Manchester clubs. MacPhee joked about a stockpile of left backs as an example of how recruitment has gone badly wrong. Cathro when asked how he plans to get the current players playing his style and what if they don't simply replied 'change them'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glottis Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Why Brentford? Genuine question because I don't know anything about them, are they great at recruiting players?

Nookie Bear Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Why Brentford? Genuine question because I don't know anything about them, are they great at recruiting players?

Bring Back Paulo Sergio Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Can't someone ask him if he thinks this group of players should be 11th in the SPL? Because that's exactly where we would be if the season started when he arrived. I suspect it will continue with easy questions, the hardest coming from a child. (Well done you!)

Dennis Law Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Lots of grand ambitions and ideas on how to play. Recruitment recognised as a major flaw. The Hibs defeat really resonated with the management. sounds great really looking forward to next season now!The Hibs defeat really sunk in!!! Really ? Thank god for that cause what would our results have been after that if it hadn't Apologies for being so cynical however I don't think I have been so hacked of with events on the park since the 1980s. At least these guys fought for the jersey unlike the clowns we have had playing and coaching this season since December. Fair play to them for talking tactics when they couldn't win the half time draw if they bought all the tickets!!

Captain Canada Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Why are we only bothered about recruitment now? We've just wasted half a season based on lack of proper research. There was no need to sign 9 players in January. We chose to let Rossi, Ozturk, Muirhead etc leave permanently or on loan. Only Hughes and Isma have improved the team in any way from Neilson's tenure.

jamboinglasgow Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Presentations also from the Manchester clubs. MacPhee joked about a stockpile of left backs as an example of how recruitment has gone badly wrong. Cathro when asked how he plans to get the current players playing his style and what if they don't simply replied 'change them'. interesting that they get presentations from clubs, wonder whether the ask them to come up or if clubs offer to go round talking things. One team I would want us to learn from is Southampton, they have a fantastic recruitment system. But certainly sounds like a big shake up in recruitment, though I worry that it is too late to make a big impact on this summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
