Meeting at the club 3rd Jan 10:12 - Jan 4 with 17092 viewsColDale

Just to add that there was nothing that could not be brought up. It was an very open and honest meeting as I wrote, and I think I brought up most of the issues / concerns from here over the last few days. If I've not covered it, it was down to time constraints (meeting took close to 2 hrs) and should not be seen as being evidence of proof, so apologies to the Biggins Conspiracists.

After your ‘Access All Areas’ lanyard has been moved aside, no doubt.

Judging by a lot of comments on twitter and Facebook a lot of people aren’t buying the new harmony , and definately not the extension of Norman’s deal, and McGahey’s sale.


Who’s said the current situation is harmonious?

Just for the record, i posted about the manager's presence at training. DB's comment about training being at the heart of what the manager does, rather than being 100% present seemed fair enough - it's not necessary to be there all the time, and only a troublemaker would see it that way

Does anyone disagree with that? If so, say why

Instead, both you and alderleydale have wilfully misinterpreted the post. All it takes is the ability to read without prejudice

Not really, ‘ at the heart’ doesn’t really mean anything . I’m not wilfully misreading anything, more just stating that people seem to just accept what a director, previously subject to much ire onhere says, without any reservations.

Blame that on my writing rather any mystery about the response. I asked about Hill not being at training and that idea was firmly rejected.

If Bottomley is telling the truth, someone has an agenda against Hill.

Training being at the heart of what a manager does means a great deal, actually, if you'd just care to think about what Hill has achieved with dozens of players since 2006, including at Barnsley

On the other hand, never missing a training session means f*ck all - see my comment about 'presenteeism'

If the implication is that i'd simply accepted what DB said, that's just nonsense as anyone who'd participated in this forum would know

Not oft that I misread stuff, but I'm thinking letts leave it until the forum (incidentally called for on this MB and not at the behest of the board. They cannot have a monopoly on ideas). Cols positivity lead should be respected.
I would hope that the continued presence of Graham Rawlinson on the board is gratefully acknowledged as a continuation of a successful board, together with Andrew Kelly rejoining and bringing his experience of having the club at the preferred end of the league table.
An opportunity for the new board members to enhance their credibility in real terms and also for the new Chief Executive to embellish the business acumen endorsement of the new chairmans statement supporting the appointment. Put any doubters to bed, sort of thing.

I’ll reiterate to the messageboard that these rumours, accusations, whatever we wish to call them, are not being made up by people who post on here.

I’m not anti Keith Hill in the slightest. I think he needs to give himself a damn good shake, but that’s by the by. I don’t want to hear negative shit about him, so if it’s disproved, I’m happier for it.

I’m also happy to see how things pan out from here in a wider sense. I’ve no vendetta against any individual on the board either. All I know is what I’m told and I’m happy for it to be disproved.

I appreciate what you’re saying, but I’d take exception to the manager not being at every training session. If he isn’t there it reeks of arrogance and does little to foster the Team Rochdale image he publicly wants to portray. My job and what it entails is at the heart of what my manager does, but I’d be aggrieved if my colleagues and I turned up every day and she didn’t.

I’m pleased Bottomley’s rebuked any suggestion of it, although whether he’s lying or fitzo’s suspicion that someone might have an agenda against Hill is right is yet to be seen.

Must admit, i'm surprised at that

As per my first post, manager's have other responsibilities. If, for instance, a player was being brought into the club and for the deal to go through, the manager had to be at another venue, are you seriously suggesting that having established an efficient training regime he couldn't allow the assistant manager to oversee a particular session?

Just "being there" isn't the be all and end all. The current players might'nt know why the manager was absent - confidentiality being required - but might misinterpret his absence and then tittle tattle takes over

It's always going to be a question of priorities where the manager is at any given time, surely that's not difficult to understand? Why would it "reek of arrogance"?

Got to say i agree with you on this one.. obviously it would be a problem if hill was randomly missing training whilst off doing some leisure activities, but if he’s working for the club on something else, im sure the coaches can be trusted, that surely is after all what they are there for?

Absolutely, he’d have to miss training sessions for other duties such as signing players - that’s a given and I wouldn’t expect anything else. But what was implied by the recent rumours was that Hill was missing training sessions with some regularity and for no good reason. I don’t believe that’s acceptable in a workplace, least of all one where the concept of togetherness is so important.

See i’m not privy to whats going on and i’m trying to avoid most of these rumours, as we appear to get these ITK posters who want to rock the boat at least once a year since colemans reign.

If he’s just giving training a miss for the crack, then something of course needs to be done about it..

One of the biggest concerns is communication, in that once we were told if somebody was out due to injury, the nature of the injury and time he would be missing. Now it is like the a state secret. If they explain that the club is looking to bring in experienced recruits and why people have been allowed to leave, but it is down to the fans to gossip, speculate and spread rumours based on hear say from some one connected to the club or a player.

This lack of openness and communication is creating a disconnect between the fans and the club we love.
