i was just wondering where the sky blues go from here, 3 months into the season and they are out of the top 4 cup, the o'kane cup,the junior cup and the league position isn't great either. all of that coupled with the in squad wranglings players walking off, managers resigning then coming back, where does the problem lie? ? is it the egotistic bleached blond brigade that cant and wont take criticism, is it thecoach who lets face it never played football in his life and whose only claim to fame is getting castletown relegated. is it the manager who seems to lack the courage of his convictions to drop certain players for fear of upsetting their reputations, for god knows their performances certainly merit being dropped. where did it all go wrong? ??

i think brooks point is that so much fuss has been made over nothing. youse guys talk a good game all the time. you tell us how great your team and players are but brook is correct you have nothing to play for this year. not even your pride cause that went out the window when the boy weedo walked off and your so called dedicated and respected manager cried and walked out but then done a u turn. he done a u turn cause no one else would have taken him.
forget about it blues i think the only talking point from randlestown this year is the reds.# oh tell me its not quigly that is training you ;D ;D ;D 2+2 now makes 4.

Yes Mr Quigley....hmmmm now let me see.....
Manager of Enkalon 2nd team:-
Team folded after a disastrous season in a lower amateur division.
Manager of Crumlin Rec:-
Relegated after a disastrous season
Manager of Castletown United:-
Relegated after a disastrous season
Coach of Abbeyview:-
4th in the 2nd division. Never had any input into the team selection at all.
Coach at Randalstown Sky Blues:-
After a great season the year before, Randalstown have possibly their worst ever start to a season. Players walking off, players leaving and the manager resigning.
Nothing against Mr Quigley personally, put i don't think that the evidence above suggests that RSB's poor start to the season is just one of those things.
Dunno about you guys but I like playing under someone that has actually played the game.
Let me know your opinions on this subject.

with all due respect i think a few of the best managers out there have never really played the game - Jose Mourinho & Rafa are 2, so that theory doesn't always work, but there is no doubt you're list there doesn't look good. But I think to blame the RSB's poor start to the season on 1 person is harsh considering there are 11 players on the pitch every week?

i just think its a shame to see a once proud club in the the mess its now in, would the behaviour of certain players of been tolerated when sky blue legends like desi winter, charlie winter, harris talbot, nigel hoey all played the game i dont think they would of stood by and listened to all the nonsense going on. the sky blues should have won the league last seaon by a country mile but in the end didnt even come close, why? because they are a team of prima donnas more worried about the odd step over and how the peroxide is looking. no team spirit no team bond = no sucess

Steeky, I don't believe that you have to have actually played for years within football to be a good manager, a good manager is all about dealing with the players, knowing the game and getting the best out of what talent you have in the squad. So long as you know the game of football you could be great or you could be crap, I'm sure most footballers arn't worth a damn as managers...

I think its fair to say that world class players dont make world class managers..... however there are a few exceptions.
I would agree with you Pavel, that its all down to how you treat the players and more impotantly how the players treat the manager.
On an amateur point of view, a lot of success is down to the ability of attracting players to your club. Its not really how much you know about football but knowing how to get the best out of your players. I do however think that respect is important and should be mutual.
On your point Steeky, the facts speak for themselves, but think you are being a little hard on Quigley.

Just to make a comment on the actual topic of this thread. Randalstown Sky Blue have very good players at their club and having seen 1st hand how well they get on in training, rule them out at your peril. Alex Rainey is very experienced person within this league and is more than capable in getting the Sky Blues up the league. (There you go Alex, a wee compliment......can you lend me any players for a couple of months ;D )

well done today lads we are starting to prove alot of so called 'critics' wrong, no one can question the commitment or attitude of anyone at the club and def not the talent. It goes to show`how much people want us to fail wether it be through jealousy or sour grapes who cares what they say. the craic at training and at the games has been really good over the last couple of weeks so lets keep it going. what happened in the past will stay there and we'll improve with every game with what is an extremely good young squad. lastly well done today david'diesel'semple simply superb prob the best out of a very good bunch. Upwards`and onwards skyblues.

i thought the season started 3 months ago, and by the tone of some of the comments made to this thread its only been in the last couple of weeks the craic at training and matches is getting back to wot it should be, so does the problem then lie with those players who have left in the past 2 weeks? i think not surely it is still a major problem when your two main strikers dont even speak to each other far less want to play on the same team. serious problems indeed.

Sheringham and Andy Cole never spoke to each other. They still won a European Cup medal!

I really think that the strikers need to start scoring more often like they did last year, as this season they havent been their prolific selfs. Does anyone agree with me on this fact? Plus mabye after Diesels performance on Sat he might be a better option at times. But what do i know.

If the two goals i have metioned were not counted then i believe it would have been a tighter game.
