https://x.com/BarnsleyFC/status/1842591377814917468 The players fault again! Yes maybe but you’re the bloody head coach!!! Sort it out
I thought he was a motivator, he goes against every theory in the book of motivation. Let's throw them under the bus every week and see what happens
It's difficult to legislate for the odd individual error, but they have been plentiful this season - that is quite literally his and his coaches job to sort. More to the point, it's his job to set his team up to try and win every game. I would say he's failed to do that in most games this season, even where we have fluked a win (Lincoln, Burton). That's not the players fault. That's his.
He doesn't seem to take any responsibility that's the players he's blamed in last three games now his he not the person who supposedly coaching them..
Bet the players are ready to run through brick walls for the bloke who bŏllocks them publicly every week.
I’m not impressed with Clarke but he’s right about the players. The inability to accurately pass a ball, continually hitting the first player at corners, being caught in possession, trying to dribble through players - all just basic errors that should not be happening at professional level. None of them looked like professional footballers.
It’s the coaches fault that he keeps picking the terminally inept Cosgrove. It’s the coaches fault that he fails to see you cannot play Connell and Craig. It’s the coaches fault that despite his limitations MDG is almost undroppable. It’s the coaches fault that every sub is off and usually makes us worse. In summation it’s the coaches fault.
One thing I don't get; when we were sh 1 te last season, everyone complained when Collins said the opposite, now we're sh 1 te again and Clarke is saying so, people are complaining he's being critical. Not saying he isn't also responsible, just find it odd
I think it was the Stockport game when he was critical of the players then when asked about the tactics he defended that. So throwing the players under the bus and backing himself. Poor imo
I thought the 2 wide players who came on could have won us the game,we had chances to go in front late on before we concede a poor goal. 15 conceded in the league now.
The players want 'throwing under a bus'. How many of those today (or any day) have come off the field this season thinking "I left everything I have on that pitch today" Even with the obvious lack of quality at the Club, no player should be wearing that shirt and simply going through the motions. No problem if you do but would you mind fuking off out of the Club.
