Great Andy thanks, had to miss it tonight but catching up now with a beer and some supper.
Gratitude to all for making it possible.

" Ive got 1200 followers on twitter
I dont see it ? " .

Seriously ?
The bloke obviously doesnt read this board after a defeat .

Ross also said we practice set pieces
We didnt during the NL season
Taining tomorrow & will revisit on Friday .
Down the Hill, not up the hill.
Honestly why bother listening to the Manager speak if you are going to misquote him ?

Just make it all up instead !!

P.S nice tribute at the End so applause for that.

[BiggsyMalone]

I enjoyed listening to him, the criticism of his interviews are well overboard. I thought the questions were pretty sh*t but that’s the be expected.

[Long slender neck]

Wasted opportunity.

[Ronnie Hotdogs]

How many of our questions were asked this time?

[BiggsyMalone]

How many of our questions were asked this time?

2 from ‘the message boards’. One about playing 433 and one about set pieces.

[Long slender neck]

433
why do we keep possession
why dont we go for it when winning 1-0

[Ronnie Hotdogs]

Literally no idea why they come on here asking for questions then ignore them all.

Are Phoenix still in dispute with Podcast platforms?

Having to listen via their own website instead of Google Podcasts/Spotify etc is rather laborious and probably costs you listeners

Thanks, to explain the situation. Anchor started to randomly remove shows from their platform that contained music even though the station is licensed to play music. Mixcloud altered their free to user facility in that you cannot rewind and wld have to go back to the beginning if you miss anything.
With regard to going back on a platform, the station boss assures me that he hopes to have this rectified shortly. We will of course let everyone know as soon as this occurs. Thankfully our online live audience is very good , but I agree, not being on iTunes etc isn't ideal.

I usually catch up via the link on Twitter. Will listen later today

Embleton to Agent: "I need to get out and do some media to try and turn my reputation around - get me on the next Outlook!"

Agent: "Um... sorry Ross, I have tried, but apparently the next few slots are booked up for a 3-part tribute to the career of Lindsey in the ticket office. I can get you half an hour with The Orient Hour though?"

Embleton: "D'oh!"

They’re licensed to play it, not distribute it. Are they going to pay PRS for every download? They can play a 30 second clip of it max.

[Beradogs]

What, they didn’t ask why Ling gets picked every week. Shocked, really shocked. Andrew Neil won’t be having sleepless nights. What a waste of time.

[Still wrong]

Do not send this bloke out to buy a second hand car.
I can’t believe what I have just heard, he said he asked the opposition managers what our strengths are and how they set up against us
Did he honestly expect a honest answer.

So naive !
I have never rated him as the right man for the job and something really amazing would have to happen for me to change my mind.
He may be as nice enough guy, dont know as I dont know him, but that does not make for being a good manager of a football team.

We don't know what goes on between managers, perhaps they just get along better than we think and can have a discussion without giving away their entire game plans.

Would you be so naive to chat about your respective teams to the opposition managers before the game, I never did that's for sure and don't suppose you would either for fear of giving away a plan, Bet the opposition managers just love Ross, he's so stupid it's unbelievable, Bet Justin dam well didn't, how does this clowns brain works, the more he opens his mouth the worse it gets

[Long slender neck]

He's not chatting before games though.

If Ross is that good a Manager/Coach, then he should be able to work out what is going wrong/right by himself and also by consulting with the other coaches on his team without asking for the advice of opposition managers.

[Long slender neck]

You do realise loads of managers do this?
