Thanks Pico for posting the pictures.
Should do captions comp for all 4 pics....Quote:

You know, Retro, that second one is probably right: and it works for all four photos.Quote:

(Taylor thinks: "Get f*cked.)
Gaz: "Do you want to stand on the left side of me or the right"
TR: "Umm... not sure which side do you want to stand on?"
Gaz: "Its your choice no pressure"
TR: "I'll stand on your right"
Gaz: "The right side, why didn't you stand on the left"
TR: "You said its my choice so I stood on the right"
Gaz: "Oh well you got it wrong you should have stood over there."
TR: "Geez Gaz I thought you said there was no pressure, I'm going over here now."
Gaz: "Aah Regan its OK, you made a bad choice, how about I turn around so you can now be on my left."
Or something really boring like that.
We read far to much into situations without really knowing the true story.
But this would be a very boring Forum if we actually did find out the truth.
1 TR >> Why wasn't I playing last weekend you said I would be first name on the teamsheet in the paper??
GVE >> You were I filled the Subs out first
2 TR >> What do you mean you filled the subs out first???
GVE >> I am a bit different to other Managers. Some may start at the top and work their way down the team sheet buit I do things MY way which is just plain well crazy
3 TR >> Like your batshit crazy ideas such as leaving Goody on the bench and picking a 17 year old kid in Perth when older heads were required and available and other such failed tactical masterstrokes??
GVE >> Yeah sort of like those ones but I have been working on one for this week that involves you Taylor and involving you in the action
4 GVE >> (Puts arm around Shoulder) Your getting dropped to Yoof this weekend as Sam Galloway and Mason Campbell are playing in the first team and we need someone to cover the giant holes Sammy and Mason will leave in the Yoof team
TR >> (Sobbing) You've got to be ****ing joking Gaz
"What's up gaffer?"
"Taylor, i've been thinking...you need to be more animated when you talk"
"Umm...what?"
"Your arms, you need to use them more"
"Uh, ok. Like this?"
"No Taylor, extend them, reach out like your trying to grasp something"
"What, like a dose of reality? Don't you have a team to coach?"
"Hey....look at me....Now that wasn't called for! Let's go over here and sit down so you can apologise. Don't worry about the team - Craig's looking after them."
One of the things that really annoys me about GVE is when a young player plays badly he gets dropped. Then they play well and still gets dropped. No reward for playing well. Then they see older players playing badly week in week out and not getting dropped. What must be going through their minds.
GVE is a text book NPD case. Can't believe nobody has mentioned this yet.
we have, we just haven't been using 1st year psychology terms to do so
Seriously the whole coaching staff from GVE down to Pascoe in the Youth are a rabble.
I would like to see the cleaners put through the whole place at the end of this season and start fresh again with a whole new staff and attitude.
This club talks about providing a pathway for local talent, yet Pascoe brings in Westfield High boys (who have been rejected by the Smurfs and WSW) to boost his stocks at Hunter Sports with the incentive of playing for the U/18 Jets/Youth team. Great way to engage and connect with the local community!!!
Next 3 games should define what future GVE has at the club in my opinion. An opportunity to look competitive this weekend and short of injuries or suspension a chance to stick with a squad not this extended squad crap and tinkering all the freek'n time.
If we don't look sharp and positive over the next few coming games i can sadly see our crowd numbers go south and more negative BS.
I agree stopper2 and this is why i was in the no GVE camp. New Manager with no past ties and a whole region to foster talent from.

Now, I know the quote seems pretty extreme in isolation. Gary subsequently goes on to say some positive things about the kid, that he's keeping his head down, working hard in training, one for the future, etc. BUT: why the hell is he (publicly) talking about a 45-minute starting appearance that didn't exactly go to plan as a possible make-or-break moment in Oxborrow's career? Am I misreading what he's trying to say here, or does it seem to anyone else like he's being a complete twat and exaggerating the importance of something that really shouldn't mean much in the grand scheme of things? Seems like a ridiculous amount of pressure to put on him, particularly by saying something like that to the media.Quote:
‘‘I thought he found it a little bit too quick for him,’’ van Egmond said yesterday.
‘‘In saying that, it may be the difference between making Mitchell Oxborrow a footballer or Mitchell Oxborrow not a footballer, to experience that 45 minutes, for him to get an understanding of what it’s like at that level."
Then again, Jesse Pinto's debut basically ended up being the breaking of him, didn't it? Maybe that's how things work in the GVE's world....
I was thinking exactly the same thing mate.Quote:

I think so. To me he is just saying that Oxborrow has seen that he has to step up to a whole new level if he's going to make the first team. So now he knows what to aim for, rather than thinking that his performances in the youth team are good enough for him to slot straight into the first team.Quote:

Whichever way you look at it, GVE's judgement in playing him turned out to be wrong for that game. At least Ange when he experimented with a young player recently, came out and admitted he got it wrong in the context of results for the team. GVE on the other hand puts on a spin in context about making or breaking the individual. Shows the difference in the mentality/philosphy of the two coaches.Quote:

why didnt oxborrow start on the bench and come on with 20 to go if gve wanted to give him a taste of the top level instead of starting him in a team who are presently struggling.If he had a blinder gve would of been hailing himself as the master coach who discovered a true talent instead blame the kid for not being up to the standard.I'm not totally convinced Gary is a terrible coach but he does seem to make some strange decisions and come out with unproffesional comments.
the ox, the new pinto

Righto which of you ****s posting on here is the real Gary Van Egmond???
Stealing my masterstroke of an idea to bench Goody!!!
Yesterday I threw in some shit about Galloway starting and Regan playing Yoof and it comes true!!!
I suggest we play GVE's way not the shit we have been and for some reason today was the first time I seen anything resembling the slightest idea of a high pressure possession based game
Someone suggests we stop having the full backs push up so far for outlets when our defenders have possession and today it ****ing happens.
What else has the foz come up with that we have seen???
GVE must certainly be posting here or is reading the Foz and stealing tactical insights to escape any deficiencies in his armoury cause there far too many coincidences going on
So fess up who the **** are you???
SD has met the Member and can confirm I in real life look nothing like the Egg so don't accuse me
:gent:
Hey Gary,
If you are reading this then I want you to know that I reckon you're alright mate. Playing Gallaway tonight was a masterstroke, well done. Next week I propose that you start Jesic.
Thanks,
mm
PS I think I've spotted The Member leaning over the top of bay 1 at a few games. Waiting for official confirmation from hamma though.
I still don't like GVE
take that back...I think he proved today that he is a tactical genius and any team would be lucky to have him.Wouldn't be out of place coaching the socceroos...nutures our young and is a good man manager.Quote:

What was even worse is the game hadn't even ****ing started and was getting chatted for standing. Wasn't anyone behind us either. Chick obviously hasn't seen some of the other goings on up on the rail at other games otherwise she would be tying me down with Occy Straps
Thank you all for your kind words.Quote:

Gary to make another 5 changes next week because people played too well/did their jobs. Expecting goodwin, virgili, heskey, zad and bira to be the 5 (although will prob be ritter and chapman as we cant have the same 2 centre backs 2 weeks in a row)

Goodwin should forget about being a defender and be switched permanently to an attacking role like a winger.
