I', not sure playing in this team at the moment will help anyone's development

If you can't possibly expect Smith to have done better because it's not his squad (NCFC) - jamesward, May 9, 09:50:00
- Farke was done for either way, unfortunately (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, May 9, 11:55:58
  - I would hope in the end of season debrief, he and the recruitment team, admit as much! (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, May 9, 12:52:27
    - I think he might admit it didn’t work out (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, May 9, 13:05:21
      - I agree, but in the grand scheme of things, what he tells the fans is unimportant (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, May 9, 13:13:26
- He should be at least expected to motivate them and have belief, regardless. (n/m) (NCFC) - ChengdeCanary, May 9, 11:19:03
- This is my constant refrain (NCFC) - camcan, May 9, 10:59:53
  - so how do you view a manager that takes recruits (NCFC) - Henclrikus, May 9, 12:19:21
  - but you can't give a mechanic a Porsche and expect him to be competitive in F1 (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, May 9, 11:22:31
    - But for me, a Porsche is still quite and expensive car, so while I can forgive it for not (NCFC) - Bravo win or die, May 9, 12:47:24
      - That's kind of my point...we are a good team, maybe too good for the championship (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, May 9, 13:06:04
    - so we go back full circle (NCFC) - camcan, May 9, 11:49:17
      - Which is exactly what we were trying to move away from, wasn’t it? (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, May 9, 11:58:32
        
        which was the bigest and most justifiable fear when Smith got the gig (NCFC) - mr chimp, May 9, 12:53:20
        
        Plans shouldn't be set in stone though... (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, May 9, 13:20:50

    - But we don't have the players to do it...we have a squad designed to play a specific way (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, May 9, 11:04:44
      - Normann 'our most physical player' is a pretty much as damning as you can get (NCFC) - Brom, May 9, 16:10:18
  - Yep and he’s not trying to get the best out of the young talent we did sign… (NCFC) - loz, May 9, 10:00:06

        how will they get to learn Smith's championship-winning style though? (NCFC) - CWC, May 9, 10:39:17
        
        This, this and thrice this (NCFC) - Cardiff Canary, May 9, 11:01:49

        Only at competing against prem players (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 9, 10:49:17
        
        Made me laugh when Smith said post match that he brought (NCFC) - jamesward, May 9, 10:48:07
        
        Could argue he is giving youth a chance (NCFC) - jamesward, May 9, 10:41:29
        
        Might be some appearance fees playing a part with Tzolis. (NCFC) - lurd, May 9, 11:15:14
