    Just very weird we have two players in every position (at least) - except for the one position he son plays in. 

    Very strange.

    He's the second choice LB. 

    We're playing RBs instead because he's so poor. 
    So he’s not the second choice - Gunter is the second choice to play left back. 
    Gunter isn't a left back though. 

    So the second choice "left back" is Roddy. He just doesn't get played over the right backs because he's poor. 
    Roddy is third choice to play left back. He is not our second choice to play left back.

    Purrington first choice
    Gunter second choice
    Roddy third choice

    We here has Oguntayo gone?
    Matthews is 3rd choice
    Famewo is 4th

    Washington is probably more likely to play there than Roddy. 
    Matthews is already playing at RB, who would play there then?
    Roddy.

    Though we’re said to be after two free agents.

    Apart from a keeper and a direct replacement for Stockley.  So that 3 out of 11, or just over 25% of all positions. 

    It's wrong that he got a place in the development squad if he isnt good enough just because who his dad is.  There is absolutely zero evidence that there is some convoluted plot to fast track him into the first team.

    We have Davison and Leko so you're talking out of your arse. 

    Goalkeeper we have Harness and you know that the goalkeeper is different from other positions due to the lack of need to rotate.

    And we also have Gunter and when he's back from injury (I assume that's why he hasn't played recently since starting ahead of Roddy minor in pre-season) we have Oguntayo.

    No one is saying the LB situation is fine or there are no issues around Roddy Snrs role and the potential conflict of interest.

    Well in that case we also have Gunter, Matthews, Famewo and my aunt fanny.  You need to take the tin foil of your head mate.  Your looking for something that isn't there.

    The problem with conspiracy theories is you can instantly prove them wrong, you can never prove them right.

    As per the rumours thread we've had a Lifer whose seen a trialist LB (Souare) training with the squad. So if Roddy really is some diabolical villain trying to shoehorn his son into the team*... He seems to have failed.



    * Which he's not

    There will be an open top bus parade when Jacob gets his.

    Seriously though, it’s a great idea.

    Are people still calling for this bloke to be ousted despite having no real idea what he does? 

    Just asking for a friend.

    Ah love that idea. Superb for the youngsters when they make league debut.

    if its your own shirt, then surely have it framed with the front showing (you don't need to know who's shirt it is...)

    The shirt should also have the V No. on it.

    Roddy's brother in law has a picture framing business.

    Can the technical director come out and explain why we've gone from promotion form to relegation fodder in less than 6 months?

    I've always assumed that calling their system the "black box" was supposed to be a joke. In the context of working with data an algorithm that is black box means you see what goes in and what comes out but not how it reaches that decision. Starting to think they might have meant it literally and have no idea why these players are being recommended

    Any recruitment department that signs 2 wingers on long term deals and a target man striker but the Manager has no use for them in his preferred system show how arse about face this structure we have in place really is .  We will have the best coaching pathways for a club in the 4th Division so not all lost.
