KSK_47 Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 This is such a small thing but very telling IMO. Was watching old eps of access all areas. When paddy was I. Charge his message to the players as they were heading onto the pitch was "unleash hell". A few eps later when Rado is in charge he says to players as they are going on tbe field "good luck" To me it really highlights the change in mentality. We went through this period where we seemed to embrace that inner cunt that's we have been missing for so many years and was exciting to see us heading in that "anyone. Anywhere, any time" direction. Now it's "good luck" and really feels like we have gone back to that "if we win, we win" mentality 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a combination of poor recruitment, a poor style of play, and poor management. Nobody can convince me that as a club we are not going downhill in many respects. Sold ourselves to the devil and now we dance to his tune. Not to worry - next week we'll announce some new "partnership" and all will be well again.

kingofhearts Posted October 29, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 There is more then enough talent in the squad that should make us a mid level table team at worst. We've given Rado the keys to a ferrari and he's filled it up with Diesel, then crashed it into a tree. #Radoout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr MO Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 For the ones who hadn’t watched the ACL games. In all those games we gave the same amount of room and opportunities to our opponents magically none of them were able to convert. I mentioned it after the last game in Thailand, on another day you concede 4 goals - that day was today, PK back and make Leckie captain bring some c*nt back into this team.

This is impossible to know. I suspect that there is talent that needs to be nurtured but Rado can't do that. I would promote the assistant and see who else is available in teh CFG stable that could use Melbourne City as a stepping stone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much vindicates what we've been seeing on the field and discussing on here. For CFG that's a very sudden decision - on the surface - but it means that there was a lot going on that we did not see but guessed correctly. He has at least a Premiership to his name. Wish him well in the future because we should not bear personal grudges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Hack Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 Looks like a Petrillo appointment. Vidmar was coach at AU when Petrillo was CEO. Vidmar did get AU to final of AFC during his time there. History suggests he's a fiery character so opposite of Rado, may be more like a revisited PK. Seems to have done ok in Thailand. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr MO Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 I’m excited to see how this squad will now turn into top 2 contenders.

Remember that CFG have had to do this before with City - stamp on the "soft underbelly" aspect of the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
