IF there is any truth in these rumours and IF TC lost his job because of it and we end up with another manager, what would the new manager do with the squad we have? We the fans are living in hope that the young players will be our lifeline, but we need the older players to help nurture them. If the older players aren't up to scratch (and a few of them fall into this category) why would the young players listen to and respect men they know aren't good enough? This puts TC in a very difficult situation.
Players and managers/coaches will always have fall outs and disagreements but it's how the manager deals with these situations that will determine whether he has a good grip on the players or not. Very hard to tell with TC at the moment as we don't know enough about him in this respect. Hopefully Tam gets a chance to put his stamp on the squad in January.
