This is about a squad clicking into career-survival mode now there’s a man in charge who won’t allow them to take the p***.
Being partial to the occasional Belgian chocolate you’d think is about as much as John ‘Cowboy’ McCormack has in common with Philippe Clement.
Our former Spiders skipper Paul Martin’s pre-match routine to make himself physically sick in the toilet was possibly triggered by having a manager who placed higher demands than most – but he has never admitted to that possibility. That ability to shock a dressing room into an upturn in fortunes isn’t always about coaching ability, it’s almost always about being able to crack the whip.
Doomed to failure, the Englishman will now know the players weren’t having him from day one. Clement’s arrival hasn’t suddenly made poor players good. The increase in motivation and morale and the fresh perspective the new tactician brings with him is clear. But this is about a squad clicking into self-preservation and career-survival mode now there’s a man in charge who won’t allow them to take the p***.
Players have been sending out coded messages in recent weeks about the night and day approach from the previous regime. Here’s a quick story. The names have been changed to protect the innocent, so we’ll go with Gary Megson and Nottingham Forest.
