Our managers always watch the match from the dug out, but after currently watching the Welsh Rugby friendly, where management tend to watch the game from a box in the stand and feed back..
Does anyone know who actually watches our matches from the stands for a different perspective (Horror show) and feeds back to PC, HJ and MM aside? |  | | |  |

I think that you get a better perspective of what's occurring from on high personally. If I was at ground level I wouldn't know what was going on.
Maybe its better to be on high in rugby? |  | | |

Not so easy to communicate with players though which football needs more than rugby. |  |

Might be better if our bench couldn't be heard I think. Can you imagine the things PC calls out to the players?
"Now don't go passing the ball forward into the oppositions half, there's none of our boys up there"
"When you get a free kick round about the half-way always pass it back to the back four so they can pass it all along the line, and if not in trouble by then attempt to pass it all the way back again, we should be in trouble by then so somebody can put an aimless big hoof up field"
"Now, when we have a throw-in all stand dead still and let the thrower-in throw it to the opposition"
"When we do get the ball up field let Tammy fight for it on his own, he's a big enough boy, and when he loses it we can all shout "Unlucky Tammy".
It's how it seems at the moment boys and girls. | | | |

Well now you come to mention it, you're right! | |

I have been advocating this for years.
It doesn't have to be the Manager and it could even be a video link.
It is easier to see positional problems from up there than down on the line. | | | |

Well the last point’s not true because they’re all too far away for Tam to hear. [Post edited 13 Nov 2017 19:36]

I preferred Guidolin's kneeling down to observe game stance. How I miss that man. I'm not 'appy. |  | | |

Didn't Martinez do this with Graeme Jones? Roberto would be in the dugout 1st half with his sidekick up in the stand. |  |

Wasn't that to stop him tw@ing away fans?  |  |

Leon's new position.... |
Its pretty obvious really why Leon got the job. He is so small he has a different perspective. Not sure why anyone hasn't picked up on this before. |  |

While we're on the subject of dug-outs, does anyone know why the roofs have been removed from the ones at the Liberty?
They're all there just sitting in the rain. |  | | |

I would not say that is the case. |  |

Can remember tosh standing on the north bank to watch the game from a higher perspective. The dug out in manure is elevated on purpose for this you can't see a game properly from pitch level |  | | |

That’s all it is. You get a much better perspective from higher up.
Managers need to be in a position to give players instructions on the fly in football, not so much in rugby. | | | |

In the 1990's and early 2000's, I used to frequently sit in the East Stand at the Vetch and often saw our old Scout (can't remember his name - think he was a Swansea goalkeeper's dad) sitting a few seats away taking notes on what was happening down below.
Personally can't understand why a coach doesn't sit in the middle of the Liberty's West Stand to get a better perspective on what's happening and link up with our manager
Edit - was it Ron Walton ? [Post edited 14 Nov 2017 17:21]

I don’t think Rob Howley is analysing anything on his laptop.
Gatland has him playing solitaire to keep him amused and out of the way. |  |
