I didn't read about Frank, who is he and are we trying to sign him as a striker? I think we could do with a couple of strikers :D Actually its a really good read and very honest. Title: Re: PDC Interview in the People today Post by: Peter Venkman on Sunday, July 3, 2011, 09:23:09 actually the bits I liked best in all of that were ....
Quote “In this job, the psychology is the most important. I am never going to be frustrated that my centre-back cannot play the ball like Rio Ferdinand. I have to find a way to help my defender achieve his own ambitions. “I know we will not have a genius in League Two. A lot of managers don’t understand this. Maybe they were a very good footballer at the top level but if they get a job in League Two they get frustrated. If you think that way, you cannot be a manager. You have to open the mind 360 degrees.” “If you treat your players as a man, they’ll respect you. If you say ‘no, everything is okay, don’t be worried’, then you speak badly of them behind their back or maybe you leave them out of the team, they won’t respect you. You have to grab him by the shirt and say ‘come on’, if they’re a man, they’ll accept it.’’ Title: Re: PDC Interview in the People today Post by: Batch on Sunday, July 3, 2011, 09:26:43 Thanks Jutty, good read. Its hard not to be impressed every time PDCs talks.

Title: Re: PDC Interview in the People today Post by: leefer on Sunday, July 3, 2011, 09:41:06 Like it,for me personally i have not been impressed with our signings,not really upbeat for next season to be honest,but there is a part of me thinking that this feller is going to get it right for us in a big way.
I really hope so because the other option dosn't bear thinking about. Title: Re: PDC Interview in the People today Post by: LJ9 on Sunday, July 3, 2011, 10:44:04 poor...get the facts right. PDC pushed the ref in 1998 not 2007!!
Title: Re: PDC Interview in the People today Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Sunday, July 3, 2011, 10:46:00 It was indeed 98. Good article though. You can't help but not be impressed by what he says.

You can't help but not be impressed by what he says. completely agree. very passionate and like the way he's psychologically gearing them up. If you don't believe you can do it...you won't!! Title: Re: PDC Interview in the People today Post by: Ardiles on Sunday, July 3, 2011, 12:51:25 There was an Oxford fan commenting on PDC's appointment a while back, saying they (OUFC) were likely to have an advantage in the derby games because he wouldn't understand what the derby meant to the fans. Reading this and other articles recently, I don't think the Oxford fan could have been wider of the mark. I think you could have levelled the 'not getting what Swindon vs Oxford means' accusation at some of our other managers, but I have no such qualms about PDC. (Just wish he'd sign some flaming strikers!) ;)
Title: Re: PDC Interview in the People today Post by: Ralphy on Sunday, July 3, 2011, 13:33:58 Di Canio will be more up for the derby against Oxford than some of the fans. He gets it, don't worry about that.
