Dougie's pre-match routine

Interesting maybe that the person dictating Joanne's letter chose to say 'requested' and 'accommodate', not ordered and obey!

Easy to see what we choose I guess.

That has since been extended to 2 hours, but it's a good point.

Where does it say that?

It doesn't. It's something the Club told perfan on the phone after that letter was sent.

Ah! Missed that bit.

I might just make the point that when I worked for an employer, (me having 3 kids, a mortgage and being reasonably adult) on a working day the bugger used to insist I was in the office by 8:45am!

How unreasonable was he!!!

[thebish]

well - I'm glad Eagles had a full 90mins to get over his encounter with Perfan and do focused, professional, concentratey things... it clearly did the trick!

[Hoboh]

With the way we start games they'd be better off on the pitch till 14.55 waking up!

I heard it said at the weekend that almost without exception the squad are 'on board' with Freedman and enjoying their work.

Of course that may be b*llocks, but I don't get the sense that we're carrying many malcontents. Maybe a little of Smokin's structure does indeed have it's place.

Yeah, but he said we didn't have any...or at least not enough

so - not entirely without exception then... who's not on board??

[Enoch]

I didn't hear that said!

I think given his age and experience he appears to be remarkably mature, level-headed and it also seems he has the respect of the players. No moaning, leaking of discontent etc. And all this while the other two relegated clubs were tearing themselves aprt despute at times having more points than us. Looks like the real deal to me and he'll be with us a long while. Unless he turns out to be too good and gets poached.
