On the issue of selling players and recruiting, some interesting comments from Edwards in an article in the Echo this morning, where he unsurprisingly...
@clive-hurren I was just about to make very similar points about Josh Coburn when I noticed your post on the Rob Edwards thread - anyway I've just ...
@lenmasterman I hope they can get you on the mend soon Len and make you well enough to get back home again - take care and wish you a full recovery...
@original-fat-bob Must be bad if Coburn's sale was needed on top of Latte Lath's before the end of June - especially given the money from Akpom, Ro...
@pedro There are 3 international breaks in 2025 - after August, after 4th October and another after 8th November. Only one league midweek games in ...
@exmil I'll add Doncaster to the fixture list once I find a date 🙂
@exmil Surprised to hear that - I thought Coburn would've suited Edwards style of play - I guess he didn't even get to talk to him...
@exmil Boro also had 14 points after 10 games last season too - so that would be some kind of continuity at least 😉 Though that was alre...
I only just realised that Boro also began with a home game against Swansea last season too - which they won 1-0
Well Boro's first game for Edwards is home to Swansea followed by a trips to Millwall and Norwich and then back to the Riverside to face Sheffield Uni...
I would never have guessed from your name 😉
@pedro One thing Edwards made clear in his first interview was that putting in the effort by players was non-negotiable so that will send a message...
@paulinboro He certainly didn't rate Rob Edwards in that video but we shall soon see for ourselves - though I think he made a good point that havin...
@rich-llewelyn-evans Yes, he came across well, full of enthusiasm and energy and he actually looks completely recharged and indeed much younger and...
@jarkko Harry Watling looks different from the one I just googled...
So he was hidden in plain sight after all - no wonder it's taken so long nobody knew who that man hanging around on the stairs was...
@martin-bellamy I was expecting that man with a beard that's been in the local papers - it's not a lookalike is it 🤔
They've finally found him 😉 It's a 3-year contract with Adi Viveash and Harry Watling joining him!
@clive-hurren I think when Scott left Steve Gibson’s office last Tuesday to appoint a head coach he may as well of said “I may be some time…” It ...
Has the backtracking started in the Gazette... 'Imagine it's not Rob Edwards' jokes reminded me it has happened at Middlesbrough before
@powmillnaemore Very good 🤣 though maybe we shouldn't rule out Ed just yet...
@clive-hurren The silence is deafening - it's certainly all gone quiet on Rob Edwards in the local media with no mention of him in the Echo for ove...
@rich-llewelyn-evans I still think a combination of tensions behind the scenes, the selling of Latte Lath and the subsequent January window - plus ...
@jarkko I think Scott wanted Edwards to be Boro head coach after Chris Wilder and it was reported at the time in some of the national press that Ed...
I guess Steve Gibson would need convincing they could do the job - though let's not forget he let Carrick bring his brother in as his assistant!
@lenmasterman Yes, it does appear odd to choose a head coach that utilises a different method of playing than the players were signed for - but Bor...
Gazette Watch: Estimation of Edwards appointment... Craig Johns latest threat level has now moved from 'imminent' and in the 'coming days' to 'This ...
@pedro I was reading an article on the BBC (What went wrong for Edwards at Luton) from back in January - interestingly one the biggest criticisms w...
