Yes, was described by his manager at Bristol C, as a "loveable rogue" which I thought was strange at the time.

Signed 14th July, terminated 14 weeks later. Sounds to me like 3 months probation plus 2 weeks to arrange the required meeting with the required people in attendance, as thought by some of us.

What I'm saying is, it was you who said you presumed that would just mean goals/assists, my original posts were centred around the possibility of the targets being part of a structured probation process, and would have been monitored, discussed, recorded etc. My response in thread 1399 was just...

Not If those were his targets. None of us appear to know what they were, for sure.

Well he hasn't met many of those targets has he?

In STP's post 1332, Bright alluded to the targets set by MR, this may be just informal but is the reason I think he may be on some some sort of probation with set, and monitored targets. Bright said every time he sees MR he sets him targets. Quote from CCFC article in post 1332. “He (Mark...

I thought Richard Keogh's contract was terminated for gross misconduct, but a tribunal found that the circumstances constituted unfair dismissal. I think that's way different for failing a probation, even though the dismissed person can still appeal to a tribunal as can anyone dismissed for...

If there is a probation period it's likely to be 3 months. The employer will monitor targets and progress or otherwise during the 3 month period and the employee either passes or fails their probation, and the employment is terminated at that point on failure. That's how it works in most other...

We don't need any more right backs

Looks like if your brakes fail you just drop into the water. Good thinking.

16 points from 32 games? That would equate to 23 points for the whole season. We would deserve to be relegated.

But only 5 points between us and 2nd place

Whose track rod ends suddenly failed

The trouble is, those extra 4 games are Bournemouth, West brom, Huddersfield, Stoke. Couldn't really be a worse run of 4 games.

Pity we can't convert one of them into a Bale

8 points per 5 games will get us to around 76 points, and in with a chance of a playoff spot. When we get a run of 5 'less difficult' games like these, need to a bit higher, maybe 10 points if we want a chance of the playoffs. I can see us winning 3 of these, and a draw. D, W, W, L, W

We have hit a bit of a bad spell relative to how we were playing, that's all. We have taken 5 points from 5 games, including inflicting Fulham's only defeat in that period, and playing our ultimate bogey team away. We will come back from it. Look at Stoke, they were tipped by many experts for...

Preston are a pretty good team, their recent results; Won against Peterboro and Swansea. Drew with Stoke, Bham, West Brom, Sheff U, Bristol C, Derby. Lost by the odd goal to Reading, Huddersfield, and QPR. Their only bad result was against Hull when they lost 4-1. Too many draws, but nothing to...
