Coaching Staff

[Beelated]

Is there someone out there with close connections to the club who can help identify and name these people in this photo?

We may be familiar with the names of Keith’s assistants, but obviously the ‘behind the scenes’ team also should get a shoutout and it reinforces our ‘togetherness’ with the club knowing that these people are not taken for granted.

I can’t immediately see Ben Ryan in the lineup, and it’s possible that there are a few others missing.

A job for AI, I’d guess…

You could fire half of that staff and still get the same end result.

Say that in most businesses now

Bit like your time at BFC then....

Keith’s the one in the middle holding a cheese grater. Manu is at one end - does he own any long trousers? Neil Mac is at the other. I have no other knowledge, so I hope it’s helped…

You didn’t recognise 5th from left?

Are you really questioning the structure put in place by the people who have got us from anonymous to 5th in the Premiership? That’s crazy . They know more than you what’s needed and have proven it over the years. Trust the process. Keep the faith .
You may recognise these statements/ sentiments ?

Blimey. Your arrogance has no limits.

Surely things massively improved in the post Rebus era.

But which half? Is it like the old saw about money spent on advertising?

 

[rebus]

Probably right!

Yes. We’re bloated in all departments. The DOF hasn’t got enough time on his hands to start wading through departmental structures and questioning every appointment. He’s the conductor in the orchestra and we are swimming in money to swallow it.

From everything I have read the Brentford project is delivered due to a clear alignment of thinking and delivery throughout the club. Not sure your distinction works as I think it’s possibly based on deep seated resentments and or prejudice.

“Honest Jim” at Man Utd would fire 75% of the staff and wonder why he didn’t get the same end result

 

[Ashford Bees]

Probably right!

I think I counted 12 coaching staff regularly on the pitch before a game. Especially away from home. However not sure all of those are coaches, maybe some kit men collecting balls etc. It does seem a lot!

KOC

 

[Edmundo]

Have we got more coaches than players?

I counted 37

Someone pointed out the other day that when PL clubs travel away, they have so many staff (in addition to the playing squad) that many need two buses to transport them.

There are often two oppo coaches parked outside the players entrance.

I hope they are electric and sustainable buses now we are using 2 of them

Could explain why the club seem reticent to list the staff on the OS staff pages (ie. just letting them go to rack and ruin, prior to likely removing the staff pages).

And better still, with the first one towing the second one.

 

[TW1Bee]

Do we still have the Freight Rover minibus without an MOT or is it still not repaired after Terry Hurlock took it for a spin

It's the continual admin involved and they also don't want to be inundated by spotty students bombarding them with placement requests.
