Quote Mingthemerciless="Mingthemerciless"=#FF0000Powell has a great pedigree for getting the best out of players, many players becoming much better than even they anticipated. So what’s the problem….
From supporting the team from the Dessie and Foz days, it is apparent we do not have a strong leader on the pitch… someone who gets the best out of his teammates - like Moz used to do… look at Stains they demoted Jon Wilkin and promoted Roby for that very reason. Chris Hill never inspired others around him.
We need a player in the pitch who can grab the likes of Toby King and absolutely blast him for that service station stunt ( if true ).
Powell inherited an overpaid squad of players of players who believed their own hype - and they created a toxic environment.
Give Powell next season, give McGuire the captaincy and give more result incentivised contracts.'"
The problem, as I see it, is that Powell isn't getting the best out of anybody, as we look the furthest away from a tight knit team, that is willing to work for each other, that I've seen. There's something very, very wrong within our club as were heading for played 27 won 7 lost 20.
I would expect the board will be far from happy at where we are.
