Re: Neil Alexander

I doubt Bradford would be as relaxed about employing coaches without badges as us.

Re: Neil Alexander

Doubt it’ll happen, but if it does there’s plenty other folk out there. 

Don’t think there’s anyone at the club right now who’d be missed if they left.

Though style of football at Livi was not easy on the eye that was a team that you could see gave everything for the manager and followed his plan and instructions to the letter

Great achievement by Hopkin with double promotion with Livi. Another decent contender to replace our clueless manager gone!

This "easy on the eye" thing is in the eyes of the beholder. Csaba thinks his tippy tappy stuff is easy on the eye - I think its turgid and a big turn off. I think watching players that give everything for the manager/club/fans is easy on the eye (it is on mine at least) and I'd imagine following a club that achieved back to back promotions  must have scored enough goals to win games and that too would be easy on my eyes. Hopkins was a missed opportunity.

Did you see the Spurs goalie putting the ball out for a corner from a goal kick?
Tippy tappy surrounds us.

Re: Neil Alexander

I’ll never understand why folk have a preferred style of play.

As a coach your preferred style should always be the way that suits your players to get the best out of them, particularly your best players, and ensures wins.  This style will be different for every group of players.

As a supporter your preferred style should be the one that gives you 3 points most weeks, that’s all that really matters.

Very good post.

And  the style of play can change a dozen times a game.
The default style of play? If we have the ball they don't.
The obsession with formations is all down to Sky Sports & guff football.
The first formation I witnessed at Tannadice was 2-3-5 & the game's the same today.
