Welcome Kevin Nolan

[West Stand]

KN has been on the cards for a while by all accounts, sounded out by Sean Dyche who at the time was looking for a replacement number 2 because Ian Woan was due to leave because of personal circumstances, which have now changed. Dyche had put KN name forward.

JB had got wind of discussions behind his back and jacked because of the cloak and dagger stuff going on with KT

Also certain players had downed tools with JB and had refused to play - injuring excuses had been used more often than not such as Fosu, and there had been a divide in the changing room.

Nolan has been assured of a healthy budget come January and in the summer to get him to sign. At least 2 of his own staff are incoming in the new year

This has come from inside the club who is on the way out - no sour grapes (as they are on a fairly decent contract elsewhere)

Who's on their way out to a decent contract elsewhere? There's not that many club employees, so if this true it should be easy to work out who your source is?

I heard that was all made up ballcocks? Personally I would rather take it from the horses mouth than some of the horses arses on here.

Brady's not really said anything there. I wouldn't be expecting him to state the full reasons for his resignation or be slagging off the owners, so I wouldn't read anything into that statement

I actually disagree and think he said a lot. He had absolutely no obligation to be so complimentary unless it were true. He could have easily been politely noncommittal, without risking anything or exposing anyone.

My guess would be that you'd have to walk in his shoes to understand why he has acted in the manner he has.

My comment was tongue in cheek, but check out his comment in full, on his X account. He gives no reasons, and frankly I never expected him to.

Anyways, Sean Dyche nailed on as the new DOF.
Unsuccessful in the prem, dull football, previous connection to the club, still has a house locally, just some legal bits n bobs to tidy up. Sounds like just as good as Calderwood to me!

i would imagine very little of this is correct, other than nolan is the manager

[Deepcut Cobbler]

Part timer.

Glory hunter, only went because he was expecting the 'new manager bounce'...

[Bingers]

If our player rota can't be changed much, the key thing has to be motivation from the manager to the players. The high effort put in immediately after half time really must have been a result of something said at half time. I haven't seen such a change in attitude this season, so this is pleasing. It showed us that the players wanted to do something and were able to do something. Again not something I have seen at the recent games that I have attended.

Welcome Kevin Nolan, already making a difference.

I thought the effort levels during the first half were equal to the 2nd half?

Did you not feel a lift a the start of the second half? There seemed to be a definite uplift to me.

McCarron certainly gave us a lift when he came on. Pity he only lasted about 15 minutes.

For me the lift began in the first half mainly because we were competing well against a very physical side. My impression that Shrewsbury overall were a bit lucky to get a point. Their claim for a draw was the final 10minutes when just about kept them out.If we had an effective centre forward then we may have put the game to bed well before the 99th minute! They certainly were not good enough to beat us on the day!. On this showing most came away feeling that we had survived a potential crisis and played a lot better than expected. So KN did something to install urgency, application and honest endeavour!

Toggle Tim thought it was a much improved performance  :, it was utterly dreadful we literally couldn’t pass it 5 yards our passing accuracy was 52%, for a professional team.

52% accuracy equates to the 13th best player in the entire division. FACT!

That means that according to your post at the very least, the other 600 odd players in the division are not of a professional standard?

Bit controversial mate.
