Paul Sturrock Q+A

[Pubey]

I meant to say that I thought it was someone 'at least' very close to Luggy, or even him. Personally I don't think it's him, but that's just my guess really. I just don't think his posts come across as how Luggy does in the interviews... and some of the things he says are just a little odd!:stunned:

 

[Flinty]

Is it me or is there something quiet endearing about PS ?

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

He is very endearing, refreshingly so when so many managers make excuses, blame the ref, do the whole 'woe is me' act. I can imagine the spirit at the club is mainly down to him (and Coughlan). They seem to have the balance of good humour, relaxation and seriousness about the job in hand. The players he has brought in are similar, you can see why they are inspired by him and he clearly is inspired by them too. I also think Tara has been good for the club too, and we now have a real good structure from top to bottom. I will hold my hands up and say I had doubts over Luggy last season but he was won me over big style (and I am sure I speak for a fair few shrimpers). 15 games unbeaten, semis of JPT, 2nd round of FA Cup, the good times really are back at Roots Hall. I hope he stays here for a few more years and maybe hands over the reigns to Coughlan one day.

If not Coughlan, then someone else he brings through. We need stability more than ever ! !

 

[Firestorm]

he rates Coughlan, said at one point "he will be a manager soon"

Cluniemore ? His Daughter?

Unless PS has posted on here from his mobile during matches then it isn't him.

EDIT: here you go - posting during our win up at Port Vale. I know we were good that day but I think Luggy would have been taking the **** a bit had he got his iPhone out and started checking the forums.

Haha be funny if he did. Perhaps updating his facebook status as well.

As I have said in another thread I believe its his daughter, as he said at the start of his tenure here that she was his eyes and ears when it came to fans opinions. I imagine she gives him a brief run down of what people on here say, maybe reads the Echo and Chris Phillips' tweets.

good stuff:smile:

 

[londonblue]

The Q&A was coupled on to the Trust AGM, therefore it couldn't be opened up to Non Members.

Yes it could. You get your AGM business out of the way by, say 9.00pm, and open the doors to everyone else for the Q&A.

Bugger! That's put the kybosh on my poll vote in the other thread. Thanks :raspberry:

Good idea. Unless of course there is a reason it can't be done that way but I can't think of one.

Damn, that's a shame, I kind of wanted cluniemore to be PS. Also the idea of Paul Sturrock having an iphone is pretty funny in itself.

 

[DTS]

Likewise wasted my vote too....

 

[Shrimper51]

I think it's PS and someone else sharing the log in.

Oooooh now ya gone and done it. Decisions decisions :'(

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

That's what I think too.

I imagine his daughter(?) reads it and will relay things on to Luggy, who will then dictates replies.


FWIW, I wasn't aware of the Q&A. That may be entirely my fault for not reading my e-mails, but I think it would be helpful if someone could start a thread on Shrimpers chit-chat asking who's going or has anyone got any questions that need to be asked etc.

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

As Firestorm mentioned every Trust Member was informed with a Calling Notice/Agenda either posted or emailed out several weeks ago. Details were also on the Trust Website, Facebook Page and Twitter, and it was also advertised in the Match Day Programme and announcements made at SUFC home games.



The Q&A was coupled on to the Trust AGM, therefore it couldn't be opened up to Non Members.

That's even worse. Q&A with Paul Sturrock and Coughlan, and your AGM, and only 26 turn up. 13 of which were committee members. I don't see how you can defend this.

I wasn't aware either, but I'm awful with checking my personal emails.

 

[Beefy]

I also wasn't aware.
