Because if the first-team squad look at him as a 'mate' and not their head coach then he will command zero respect in the dressing-room. He has to maintain the aloofness needed for his players to listen to him. |

Because there needs to be some distance between the coach and the players and because he must be a figure of authority not "one of the lads" and because he cannot condemn behaviour which he himself was recently participating in. |

Exactly. If you think the head coach of a professional sports club should be leading the party then I don't know what to say. |

This is 2013 not 1983. Pride and passion are not enough. Success only comes from total professionalism in all aspects. Any coach who wants to go out boozing with his mates or regards the players as his mates should be coaching a pub team. |

Well, it started with going out for a drink, and now he's "leading the party" and "boozing with his mates." |

There needs to be a partition between radford being a player and radford being a head coach.
Theres been no gap. Ideally he would be an assistant away from the club for 2/3 seasons.
This is disaster written all over it.

Yeah, but he's handy with his fists and can run a pub, so it'll all be ok. Apparently. |

I've dismissed many of your posts in the past, but on this one I'm in total agreement. |

It's one thing being a part of the squad then becoming an assistant. That's happened at many clubs, they can have a sort of good cop bad cop thing between them and the head coach and be a go between, for the players and head coach.
But they need that time away from the squad if they are going to be the head guy. It just doesn't work otherwise. It doesn't. He can't have the same authority or respect.
Hull have been making poor head coach appointment for the last 5 years and it's the main thing stopping them from becoming real challengers. |
