Re: Kieran Burton
Will be a loss to the side, he has looked decent when I've seen him.

Bugger! with Lawlor having a shoulder injury time for Sukar to step in slongside Lees perhap
Re: Kieran Burton
Sukar whos been sacked off is now needed you mean! Could he be blamed if he didn't really give a toss and just went through the motions for a man who obviously doesn't want him around the club?eddie-rowles wrote: ↑Thu Nov 16, 2023 5:31 pmBugger! with Lawlor having a shoulder injury time for Sukar to step in slongside Lees perhap

Re: Kieran Burton
Yes of course he could be blamed. Being dropped from the squad after a number of poor performances does not give you the right to be unprofessional nor do I expect he’ll act in that way. If given the opportunity, Saturday is a great chance for him to prove himself.loan_star wrote: ↑Thu Nov 16, 2023 5:33 pmSukar whos been sacked off is now needed you mean!

Re: Kieran Burton
Sukar was dropped....offered out to other clubs......and now Gowling needs him back.
I am absolutely amazed that people can't see that this is terrible man-management, just like the Tommy Taylor situation.

Re: Kieran Burton
Totally agree with this, Sukar is certainly a good enough player to be at least on the bench as he can cover for LB and CB.Similarly dropping Griffiths to the bench after he played really well against Chester and not bringing him and Platt on the other night when we were shambolic at the back.Darlofan97 wrote:Sukar was dropped....offered out to other clubs......and now Gowling needs him back.

Re: Kieran Burton
At the end of the day all new managers do this. There's always players who aren't fancied who they try to move on to make space for a few of their own signings. Always. It's never not happened.Darlofan97 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 16, 2023 6:05 pmSukar was dropped....offered out to other clubs......and now Gowling needs him back.

Logically they must all be terrible man managers then?
Re: Kieran Burton
If Gowling wanted to bring players in then of course some players were going to be dropped, and some were going to be offered to other clubs to try and raise some funds. I personally don't see the problem, particularly when Burton appeared to be an upgrade on Sukar and Lees. Shame that Hartlepool need him back.

Re: Kieran Burton
There is dropping a player out of the side for someone better, but then there is completely cutting them out of the fold and offering them out to other clubs, only to then need them.
All for a temporary loan that has lasted, what, 24/25 days?
Sukar is also a good player, only 27 & Managers Player of the Year last season.
Terrible management.

Re: Kieran Burton
Sukar can cover 2 positions and with Burton going back to Pools, then surely Gowling has little choice than to bring him back into the squad.Darlofan97 wrote:There is dropping a player out of the side for someone better, but then there is completely cutting them out of the fold and offering them out to other clubs, only to then need them.

Re: Kieran Burton
But Gowling couldn't know that he'd end up needing Sukar any more than any other manager would know if they'd end up needing to rely on a player that they tried to move on.Darlofan97 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 16, 2023 6:31 pmThere is dropping a player out of the side for someone better, but then there is completely cutting them out of the fold and offering them out to other clubs, only to then need them.

The only solutions to this problem are either to be able to predict the future, or to not try and move on inherited players that you don't fancy.
You're being irrational on this.
If you don't rate Gowling there's plenty of other things you can use to back up your opinion.

Re: Kieran Burton
I don’t see what the problem is. If he is trying to move on an underperforming player to bring in funds for new signings that’s hardly a surprise. As of now Sukar has not found another club so why wouldn’t we utilise him in the meantime? He’s not a child, I’m sure he can handle being on the transfer list (if that is the case) whilst maintaining his professionalism.

Alienating players, and staff, has been a constant theme of Gowling's tenure here.
Why do you think we lost 8-0 on Tuesday night? That doesn't happen by chance.

I'm not excusing the 8-0 by the way.
Re: Kieran Burton
I agree with Ghost. I personally think because we're a poor team, have been for a while, are prone to conceding a lot of goals, and played basically the entire game with 10 men are more convincing reasons than a new manager wanting to move a few players on, but each to their own.Darlofan97 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 16, 2023 7:16 pmI'm not being irrational.Ghost_Of_1883 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 16, 2023 6:55 pmBut Gowling couldn't know that he'd end up needing Sukar any more than any other manager would know if they'd end up needing to rely on a player that they tried to move on.Darlofan97 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 16, 2023 6:31 pmThere is dropping a player out of the side for someone better, but then there is completely cutting them out of the fold and offering them out to other clubs, only to then need them.

Everything is completely harmonious, and team spirit & morale had absolutely nothing to do with being one goal away from equalling the worst ever National League North defeat, ever.
People need to wake up and realise just what is going on. The way in which some of our players have been handled & treated has been nothing short of a disgrace.

Re: Kieran Burton
I’d fully understand if Sukar refused to play but he doesn’t seem that sort of character. Seems a player who will battle so I think he’ll step up.
Re: Kieran Burton
I wouldn’t understand it. He is getting paid and under contract so he should be willing to pay when called upon. Presumably if he refused to play, he would be in breach of contract, and could rightly be sacked.

Re: Kieran Burton
It honestly wouldn't surprise me to see Sukar completely left out again on Saturday with Griffiths or Platt slotting into CB.
Gowling has tried to change too much, too soon and we are now relying on players that we've actively tried to get rid of to bail us out.
What a mess - does anyone know what's going on with Hazel?

Re: Kieran Burton
Gutted Burton has gone back, was really hoping we would be able to extend his loan, I honestly don’t think Sukar, lees or lawlor are good enough (in my opinion) but it is what it is!
