Pleased to see the thread evolving and no doubt going from strength to strength. Top stewardship from the SC powers that be as always.

Still imagine A&C wincing every time a tweet lands its way in here mind you...

So, Luis Martins as first team coach,

and according to Jacob on COYS:

Freund will be assistant.

Quite a U turn in the coaching department. We had the dinosaurs in the business in Redknapp and Jordan, guys who admittedly don't use computers and new technology and now we have AVB and Freund - the young and hungry, tech savvy guys. Successful youth development (Freund and Martins) versus sign over 30 players (Harry and Jordan). I hope our players can adapt to the change as quickly as possible.

I really don't think we need to be posting everything the say in the RO... I mean JJ's thing just there either just a mistake or a joke. We need to apply a bit of common sense here or the RO will just become a twitter feed.

Not really sure why everyone doesn't just follow them on twitter really... I mean you don't even need an account for Akqa, just bookmark this.

He's admitted it was a joke.

Exactly. Everyone on here spotted within a second that it was one of those two options. No need for people to put it in the RO. I guess just ask yourself "id this worth people discussing?". We just had a page of people saying that Luka has time off due to the Euros. With a bit of common sense this would be fairly easy to manage.

without going too far off topic, my experience of coaching shows that initially players find easy training quite fun and a bit of a laugh.. turn up, do nothing, go home, like it's a kick around at school.

After a while, when their performances and fitness levels aren't what they were, players get frustrated and want to be challenged because the easy routine becomes boring. They want to learn and want to improve.

Hopefully this will test them. It will be a big shock but when they start playing well or do new things it will be much better.. the ones who don't adapt can leave and play for someone without ambition. Players should be looking forward to training, not going in because they have to.

Why on earth is JJ's last comment in the ITK RO section? His comment was tongue and cheek and not ITK at all..

He didn't really help by tagging it #SCITK... As I said we need to apply a common sense filter before throwing everything into the RO.

After the last Euros, I believe most of our players in the tournament got at least 2 weeks.

The sooner Luka goes the better really, it's obvious he wants to go so he needs to be sold quickly so we can work on getting a replacement. Unless he states he wants to stay and is 100% comitted to the team (which will not happen) then just sell him.
