TS time to act

[Derbymiller]

A new thread to make the discussion about should he go or stay not be lost in the Matchday Thread.

The away form, performances and MTs decisions during so many of these games is beyond a joke, you can see it in the faces of the staff in the dugout and the body language of the players, they know MT is a deadman walking. I was in two minds whether he should get more games and see what happens up to the middle of December, but tht today was like watching a Mike Bassett team. So TS here is the details for Gold taxis in Rotherham, time to call MT a taxi

No 3 weeks messing about recruiting, it hasn't worked in the past get an experienced bloke in on a 1.5 season contract quickly.

Plenty o managers about looking for work atm.

We would end up with someone like morrison or pelts who are actually part of the problem.

Needs a fresh face who can clear out the dross and get some proper training drills in that make us organised and fit if nowt else. We have to become harder to beat.

I agree, fitness is key going forward and that comes from training and more balance between youth and experience. A while back I posted a research study that was published recently about hamstring injuries and it showed that the coaching and training was a big factor in the number of hamstring injuries, it isn't just bad luck.

I've watched about 4-5 games this week (not including ours) and I've counted 7 players from those games who have gone off/are now out due to hamstring injuries so it's definitely not just an RUFC thing despite what many of the usual suspects would have us believe.

Nobody is saying it is just a Rotherham thing, what I am saying is the research carried out on the subject identifies the coahing and training as big factors, so the question is what have the club done to address the risk especially with a squad of aging players? Please don't say you are sure they have done all they can, because you don't know they have and I don't know they haven't, it is just a question. What i will bet you is if we change the management and we start to win a few matches I bet a few of these injured players will recover quicker and be ready to play.

Both Spurs and Newcastle are struggling with injuries (and they are probably not the only ones) so are you saying clubs/managers like that aren't doing all they can to mitigate the risks? I'm sure they are. As I type Almiron has just gone off after 30 minutes with, yes you've guessed it, a suspected hamstring injury

statistically that doesn't prove anything

Did I say it did? It's an observation.

Quite possible its a training drill or two that's been adopted on the coaching course qualifications.....which would explain why and how these are happening.

Players haven't genetically become more susceptible to hamstrings. Tactically things haven't changed and it's not like they've been going in the "extra" extra time.

Change the manager and everything will be ok .manager gets it in the neck but the chairman get a free ride .
