Turner (fitness coach) - gone, now at Stoke City

[mutley marvel]

His new job tittle is Head Of Performance

Perplexing,turgid,clueless- he will have to up his game if helicopter man is not going to blow his gasket (again)

 

[Tugboat]

Who?

Anyone else notice he thanked “the people of Plymouth” but not the football club 🤔

If that’s what it looks like then OK, but I’m just stating what I think, I really want Foster to do well, in fact I’ve defended him a number of times over the last week, I’m just not going to pretend that I was delighted with the appointment because I wasn’t.

Interestingly I have the opposite opinion - I was delighted when we brought in IF.

He absolutely fits our model right now imo.

Foster is definitely winning me over, I like how understated and how grown up he seems in comparison to both Lowe and Schumacher, I like how serious he is, and I like that we’re now looking like a solid team rather than a vulnerable group of gung ho individuals.

Agree totally Cobi 👍

I would say salary but I could be wrong

So if ex-manager gets the boot, he walks away with a paid off contract, and all those lot who had a solid job at Argyle before he left will be simply out of a job with 2 months severance.

 

[Hank Moody]

At the moment it is Head of Poor Performances

Rather Head of PPP. The bloke is an absolute sausage too.

That Turner statement obviously took a lot of time and thoughtful effort. Plus the emotion of course ------- NOT!

 

[Mark Smith]

When did the whole "management team" thing start? It doesn't seem that long ago that managers came and went but back-room staff remained just that. Then manager-plus-assistant manager became a thing*, and now managers seem to have a whole retinue of courtiers, hunting in packs and all popping up together ("I'm only taking the job if I can bring Bongo, Mikey and Bones")

*True, of course, that SS himself bucked this trend by not following Lowe, and I'm old enough to remember Clough and Taylor, and of course we had Shilton and McGovern.

I’m still annoyed at the way Schumacher left but I’m not particularly bothered that others went with him, that’s pretty common nowadays. Say that Hughes and Cavanagh decided they wanted to stay and Foster came in and didn’t want to work with them, then they’re unemployed, sticking with Schumacher offers more immediate job security.

 

[EuroJim]

I really didn't think Hughes was added value, just a drinking buddy maybe? The set pieces didn't improve under him that's for sure.

 

[IJN]

Exactly my thougt as well.

It’s also interesting that now, without our specialist defence coach, we look more solid defensively.

Hughes....sat next to the dugout looking disinterested, took a walkie talkie message from Dewsnip, passed it on to Schumacher, sat back down. Not exactly Mr. Motivator.
