She made some allegations that the Staj sacking was because he wouldn't let the players have sex with each other before big games and then some veiled insinuations about older Matildas preying on the new generation of girls.... Claimed, from memory, that this was all swept under the carpet by a certain few in the FFA who condoned "that sort of thing"....

Her comments weren't taken seriously due to the fact that they could be economically damaging no doubt.

One of them in regards to preying was insinuated towards " the somersaulter ". Make of that what you will.
 
Diego Simeone has to be up there as one of the all time great managers surely
he sure punch's above his weight compared to the usual suspects with alot more $'s behind them.
Admire him alot and they are my fav Liga Club.

Talking gaffa's of note I came across this article yesterday that was worth noting Capello expressing his POV re Pep.
Makes some sense imo - for all have followed and many have failed unless you have the cattle capable.
You laways need to play what your team is capable of doing and some trying to keep playing out from back get caught out bigtime one not having the players technical enough to cope especially when under todays high press style game without the ball.

That's never really worked. It never worked on me and I never went off at any player in the sheds. Even these days half time talks are more constructive and more about pointing out things that could be done better or changed. The idea is to build an esprit de corp amongst players so that they themselves know what to do and what could be done better before and after the match. Yelling means you don't know your players or your game plan properly.

the article is firewalled but I get the gist the writer is expressing but I agree with you EZ.
Having been in very tteams as player and been on coaching assistance levels leter years - "screaming" ? cheez yer nope, good manager knows how to express with his/her troops and at good levels even players know where they error or are exposed.
Talks together at HT doesn't need screaming but good constructive criticism and encouragement.

no didn't watch but read an article, as good as the Plymouth cup win but worse for Xabi they were L3.
Good on them the miracle of cup football.

Well that's work as well.

Talking to the old supervisors on sites and they've all evolved from the old screaming and swearing at people. They either evolved to the new conditions or they've been moved on.

Probably not a bad thing.
