Phil brown, does he risk becoming damaged goods?

[* ORM *]

We have frustratingly fallen away post feb in each of the last three seasons now. I don't think this is hugely down to the motivational skills, or lack of, from Brown or Sturrock. We are one of the only clubs in league two without a fitness coach. I realise finances are incredibly tight but whether this is down to the manager or Ron, surely this needs to be addressed for next season. The players that were good earlier in the season, Hurst, Leonard, Timlin look absolutely knackered.

Interesting point. Didn't Brown state he wanted to get the players fitter than they've ever been preseason? Overdone it ?

I have heard a rumour of the players being 'over-trained', don't know whether there is any validity in it?

Brown made a comment last week that they were looking at whether players needed MORE training.

We were told the players were the fittest they have ever been this season and we didnt start the first 10 games in good form when we were at our peak fitness wise, fitness isn't the reason we fell away. Do we really think a fitness coach at the club would have meant we maintained our form ?

He has a big enough backroom staff, if he thought that was the reason he would have hired one.

Martin Allen has only managed to get one club out of league 2.

....who has now been appointed Barnet manager for the 4th time!
