Do you reckon that GON will have had a chat with Mckenna? 11:07 - Jun 29 with 2240 viewsVic

I bet that GON has been absolutely pouring over video's of as many matches as possible since the club first contacted him in order to build up a picture of the strengths and weaknesses.

But I'm also wondering if he'll have been in touch with Keiran to get his take on things?



Poll: Right now, who would you rather have as Prime Minister?

No.

In a previous role I was offered the opportunity discuss a squad with the idolised retiring coach. Something I would never do again. There were players idolised by him and I felt the pressure that if I didn’t use them and things didn’t go right it was all on me. There were talented players that were not rated and I was advised to ship them out. I felt doing it my way suddenly came with conditions and increased pressure and risk.

I would never accept that advice on the squad again. It’s my way, my axe, my head or someone else’s way. GON will know this and I’m sure out of respect KMc will also.

Obviously if McKenna doesn't want to talk to him, that's fine. I thought that was a given. I think people are just saying if GON wanted to sound him out, just a friendly chat, not a "Q/A session", then there's nothing wrong with that.

I'm not sure what relevance your last points are. We know he's left, and on his terms. Doesn't mean he won't ever talk to anyone at the club again.


Fairly sure I wasn’t suggesting KMK wouldn’t want to talk to him but hey ho.

Perhaps Q/A session wasn’t the best description but if GON isn’t asking questions of KMK then what learning would there be? Friendly chat it probably would be but the purpose would be for one to elicit information from the other.

Again, fairly sure I wasn’t suggesting KMK would never talk to snyone at the club again but, again, hey ho.

"He has taken a huge decision in his life and that should be respected. I’m sure that the last thing KMK needs at the moment is a Q/A session with GON."

That suggested to me that you think he might not want to. And you might be right.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

Don’t really want to get into semantics cos that can get boring.

If that’s what you think I thought then I’ll leave it there.

GON: OK, Where did you hide the stapler ?
KM: That's for me to know and you to find out.
GON: FFS, Give us a clue
KM: Alright, my first is in Chaplin but isn't in Ladapo
GON: Not this again, it took me ten gos before I could get that key to the desk drawer.
