After reading some of what our players behaved like under Mel part of me hopes we get a right horrible b*****d in who will give them hell and ship out the wasters over the next year or so, sadly we wont be able to get rid of them all at once but over the 3 x transfer windows i hope we ship out whoever is the power behind it all.
Reading Reids comments and also the players laughing at Mel's attempts at English in his teamtalks makes them sound like a bunch of school boys, bullys to a certain extent and its pathetic. I have no doubt there are more good than bad in our dressing room but sadly the bad ones usually have the influence.
I think they got too comfortable under Clarke and let him down, he was meant to be there mate and they got him sacked, then clearly didnt respect or give Mel a go and got him the sack too, thats why i would not object if for a season we had a Sir Gary Megson type, a disciplinarian who kicks their arses into touch, i would accept that now if it meant ridding the club of those culprits, sadly dont think it will happen.
Judging by the attitude problem i think our players will behave like idiots whoever gets it from the names banded about, they really seem to think they are something and have some sort of power, i would ask them to get their medal collections out for what they have achieved at top level football, there wouldnt be much there.
I think although us fans like Mcinnes and respect him, most our squad wouldnt have a clue who he is, Hughton seems a very nice bloke and i could see a Pepe Mel situation where the scumbags take the mick, Malky Mackay would fall possibly into the same catergory as Mcinnes, our players would probably question him as he only managed in the premiership for 4 x months. Sherwood i think would either be brilliant and as he has an ego the size of a planet himself he would either over power them and we become successful or there would be a lot of clashes. I have nothing against any of the above and wouldnt mind any of them being our manager (even Sherwood who i dont like!) its just how i think some of our players would see it, they seem to be quite picky who they bother to try and play for.
A Laudrup, Moyes or Jol type for me, experienced, respected and wouldnt take any rubbish from our divas (especially the latter two) and although i think Kiely and Downing are getting a lot of unfair stick, if they in the clique as some think, then if they have to go to make us better, then so be it.
