Title: Sturrock's Latest Update.
Post by: Rich Pullen on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 15:05:21
He's awesome... How many managers post an update talking about the maintenance projects he's wanting done!

He's justified all of his decisions from last night and I agree with him. Funny to read that Patrick and Sofi are banned from talking French to eachother whilst working!

 :soapy tit wank: I know it's totally irrelevant to what fans need/want to know but it's hilarious.

I salute him for it.

Spot on, fair play to him, if making improvements to the facilties make any difference then good on him, the arkells area especially is pretty run down, so if eh can tart the place up a bit then great, and it gives Whalley soemthing to do whilst collecting his pay check.

You are missing the point Matthew (as are you a little bit Rich) which is that Sturrock cares. He doesn't want the ground to look shabby. He doesn't want the offices and boot room and wherever else to look like no one gives a shit.

He cares and wants to do something about it. That's EXACTLY what I want to hear. That's why he moved (is moving) to the area and why he wants the players to live in the area. I also believe he genuinely cares about the fans. The CG to him is not just where you come to pick up your pay cheque whilst waiting for something better to come along.

For that reason, I love him* - FACT!

I agree OST, when he did his first fans forum he talked about making the place somewhere to be proud of, and despite all work currently making it little more than a polished turd, it's great.  If a place looks as professional as possible then hopefully it'll rub off (whilst we all know there are some parts fo teh club which are far from professional) on the players and staff.  He does, and says all the right things and it's such a refreshing change form the likes of King etc.  A genuinely professional approach.

He is taking pride in the club. That has to rub off on others. I've been embarassed by this club for far too long and (dare I say it) I'm starting to feel a little bit of that pride coming back.

I may not agree with everything he does, I don't think Charlie should have gone to Rochdale for example. I just like the way he conducts himself and the way he does things (unlike some of our previous managers - well one in particular springs to mind)

:|  WTF?

Anyway Sturrock seems to actually care - which makes a change.

Besides which that bootroom might not be the most important things, but at least the players aren't depressed when they go in there, so it's all good right?

Call me stupid by all means but I had no idea Blair was receiving no pay at all for the time he was here? I thought he may have got a very small sum? Not bad at all and nice to hear now he has a contract he won't be breaking the bank!

Non-contract players play for expenses only, and as he could come in with Dad I guess there's wasn't many of them!
