Other forums do include threads on other subjects. However, NSC is quite unique in that. On NSC, subjects like Immigration and LGBT issues. Participants for the most part would have positive views on them. Go on for example somewhere like Stoke City forum and the views of let's use an 80/20...

Nah What makes this site one of the best and most interesting Football Forums is the Diversity of the topics. If it was only about Football. The bad periods would leave people f#cking suicidal .

I would contradict the reason Pardew replaced Chris at Newcastle. Pardew was a mate of Ashley. They were mates. They used drink together in London. They used to go to Casinos together. Pardew had gambling debts and I think he was out of work. Ashley essentially essentially created a job for...

It's not that strict. What they allow in immigration per capita isn't that low. I don't want get into the history of how Switzerland acquired it's wealth because I certainly don't approve of their history

It wan interesting you referencing the FAI and the Brian Kerr Era. I obviously had to deal with FAI during that time because Chris was his Assistant. The FAi and SFA have been very similar in their outlook to Managers. In periods they have thrown Millions at the job. Ireland with Trappatoni...

How do you find the time to follow them all ? I'm dead impressed 👍 Anyways. Who knows maybe Chris will make Ireland his final job before he goes and does more Advocacy work on racial issues. The Ghana job is massive in that country. I hadn't realised how fanatical fans are over there before...

He was great at Millwall. I had given up my season ticket at Millwall by the time he arrived but every time I did go he was good

That's a decent amount of them. But they need to start getting " competitive game time" I obviously don't follow the Irish lads to much. Although my Dad's originally from Donegal. He lived 80 of his 85 years in Scotland. So he is very Scottish. Except on Paddy's Day when he gets pissed and his...

The Brighton lad who was on loan at Millwall who eventually transferred to West Bromwich Albion. I think Chris quite rated him but he was a bit young at the time and needed time out on loan

I've spoke about Connolly on here before. He wouldn't really have broken into first team at Brighton under Chris. Dan Ashworth was the one Championing Connolly. Chris didn't see anything too much with Connolly. That said he didn't see Alzate coming either. He was another Ashworth prodigy

Midfield was Scotland's problem for 20 years and that's why they regressed so much in that time. If Scotland had a decent midfield when James MC Fadden was around the decline wouldn't have been so steep. Now it's strikers we lack. The midfield is decent now and they are goal scoring midfielders...

Who does he play with? Haven't heard of him. Is he still young ?

That's so true. You could end up having 6 really good footballers at your disposal but if all 6 are mid fielders that's not any good. It leaves weaknesses in other areas which you can't solve in the transfer market

Yeh a lot of time in Europe but a lot more time in Ghana than I thought he would do. I think Ghanaian FA would like to see some players breaking into the squad from the local Leagues so he makes sure he gets a look at them. But at the end of the day. Those players are still in the local Leagues...

I think he is getting used to the differences from Club Football. He probably misses the day to day work with players. He doesn't get too much coaching time in International Football but I think he is beginning to adjust to that

It was a strange game yesterday. Ghana only played in fits and starts when they needed to up the tempo they did and when the went behind they quickly started to put pressure on CAR. Chris was saying pitches are really bumpy and that's a bit of a leveller. Also he said glad he doesn't have to...

At least they will be consistent then 🙂

Bissouma will need to become a very different player if he wants to succeed or even get a game under their new Manager. He is all about running till you drop very high intensity. I am not sure he is the greatest Coach but he does get everyone giving 100% It will be interesting to see if that...

Frank Lampard to take his Coaching Badges and to everywhere
