Grant at least knew his limitations

And was an experienced coach of senior players and had worked under decent managers.

You'd have thought after the lesson we learnt with Gunn we'd be one of the last clubs to hire someone with no experience working with senior players.

    - Oh. A 9 word tweet. (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Nov 14, 10:32:26
      - That's a bit dismissive (NCFC) - Old Git, Nov 14, 10:35:29
        
        Is Nursey actually a credible source? (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 14, 10:57:25
        
        he's pretty much spot on with all his Norwich info (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 14, 10:59:51
        
        Never seen anything from him that was "spot on" that wasn't being widely reported. (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 14, 11:07:34
        
        That could very well be the only reason he was sacked (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Nov 14, 10:41:01
        
        I'm sure Archant are on the case. Full essay on the way. (n/m) (NCFC) - roedtonowhere, Nov 14, 10:48:31

        Only passing info on! (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 14, 10:56:00
        
        Fair point (n/m) (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Nov 14, 10:43:32
        
        Anyone got the mirror handy? (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 14, 10:37:18
      - If you want an essay type tweet (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 14, 10:35:06
        
        A link to the full story is not too much to ask is it? (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Nov 14, 10:42:41
        
        It is when I can't find it (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 14, 10:56:15
        
        Probably only a small aside in a box in the paper, not worth digitizing. (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 14, 11:08:12
        
        We are irrelevant now at the national level I suppose (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 14, 11:10:21
- That the James Nursey exclusive... (NCFC) - loz, Nov 14, 10:21:02
  - Interesting tweet 2 days ago (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 14, 10:34:13
    - So he went mental at the players and stormed out. (NCFC) - lurd, Nov 14, 10:55:23
      - I realise you are being sarcastic, but that could actually be part of a wider problem (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 14, 10:58:31
        
        Mark Robson has no less or more "standing" that Ian Culverhouse (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 14, 11:09:59
        
        to be fair, we had players at the club..., (NCFC) - usacanary, Nov 14, 14:57:35
        
        Except Culverhouse has a very good coaching record with senior players. (n/m) (NCFC) - lurd, Nov 14, 11:12:49
        
        Yeah, doesn't seem to have translated at the higher level does it. (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 14, 11:27:14
        
        vVvvvvmt (n/m) (NCFC) - Charles21, Nov 14, 15:02:08
        
        well Lambert had a very high profile in the game as a player (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 14, 11:11:25
        
        Well no, I think we all thought that may be a problem. (NCFC) - lurd, Nov 14, 11:02:46
        
        exactly - but if, after four months, the coaching staff still don't (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 14, 11:09:23
        
        The general feeling end of last season was players really liked training with MR. (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 14, 11:28:08
        
        I think it suggests they actually like NA and thought Robson was out of order. (NCFC) - lurd, Nov 14, 11:14:03
        
        yes, they probably do like him - he seems a fairly likeable bloke (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 14, 11:21:31
        
        So Adams is the new Bryan Gunn? (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 14, 11:17:33
        
        New Peter Grant imo (NCFC) - lurd, Nov 14, 11:20:26
        
        Grant at least knew his limitations (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 14, 11:24:14
        
        I agree. (NCFC) - lurd, Nov 14, 11:30:40
        
        So the board made another mistake (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 14, 11:07:59
        
        Only success a youth cup win? (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 14, 11:00:16
      - Why you having a go at robson only now? (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 14, 10:57:42
        
        I'd never really noticed him tbh (NCFC) - lurd, Nov 14, 10:58:56
        
        I imagine that is the type of thing Bassong said to Adams (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 14, 11:05:37
        
        Well yes, as in any line of work there's a big difference between your boss is shit (NCFC) - lurd, Nov 14, 11:07:28
        
        Bassong's remark was something along the lines of 'who the hell are you' (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 14, 11:09:22
        
        Right. (NCFC) - lurd, Nov 14, 11:11:56
        
        Can we sack Lurd? (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 14, 11:10:41
        
        I hope not, I'm very happy with Lurd on the coaching staff here (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Nov 14, 11:15:57
        
        *thinking your boss (n/m) (NCFC) - lurd, Nov 14, 11:08:02
    - Adams seems to be pretty insecure... (NCFC) - loz, Nov 14, 10:42:20
      - Or he has balls the size of watermelons and doesn't take any shit (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Nov 14, 10:51:28
      - The players were probably wondering if they were supposed to know who he was. (n/m) (NCFC) - lurd, Nov 14, 10:48:52
      - Not sure what your point is? Once Fergie ripped a player they generally got binned. (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 14, 10:48:50
        
        So Robson resigned? I find that hard to believe. (NCFC) - roedtonowhere, Nov 14, 10:53:55
        
        I never said he resigned. I never said he was sacked. (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 14, 11:14:17
        
        Sounds like he went mental and flounced (NCFC) - lurd, Nov 14, 10:57:28
        
        No. He was sacked because he undermined Adams. (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Nov 14, 10:52:13
        
        James Nursey would I'm sure be delighted that his message has got through. (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 14, 11:17:40
        
        Fergie thought van Nistelroy undermined him, so got rid. Insecurity? (n/m) (NCFC) - Higher Wrather, Nov 14, 11:04:35
        
        Unfortunately adAms seems to feel undermined every couple of weeks ... (NCFC) - loz, Nov 14, 11:12:11
        
        Every couple of weeks? Bassong and others binned in May, Robson this week. (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 14, 11:15:27
        
        I was bjust no sarcastic sorry if that wasn't clear its happening a fair bit though (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Nov 14, 11:18:39
        
        Fergie deserved massive respect as greatest manager ever (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 14, 11:07:59
        
        vmt - not sure how comparisons can be made between Ferguson, (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Nov 14, 11:15:16
