... I thought that was just such an insightful and brilliant interview. It sort of summarised why fan casts are so much better than the mainstream. Level of knowledge and depth.
I thought Jim was great, but it brought home some messages that resonated with the Marcus regime, the poor footballing advice he's been receiving, and why we have sunk:
- entertaining football has to be the goal
- being aggressive in football is not a defensive trait, an aggressive pass (FORWARD!) is just as relevant
- players have to play with relentless energy, you train as hard as you play
- excellent delivery and movement is so critical, Jim and Marcus Stewart (what a coup!) lifted the level of play by example... and we had ball delivery from Venus, Clapham, etc
- a calm manager is more effective than a someone who shouts (was this an admission from Jim I wonder?).
Think of the managers and lack of character players we have endured since those heady days.
But again just a great listen. And that balmy night at home to Bolton has become an even bigger memory for me after listening to that podcast!
