As you will soon find out, Rod is a very approachable bloke, but doesn't like getting beat!

Its a pity some managers dont learn a bit of human psychology. Some players might respond to being shouted at but with some it just kills their enthusiasm. I spoke to one ex-player a few years ago (pre-Borg) who said he left because he got fed up being made to feel small. I think most players are more fired up by a pat on the back when they do well and a quiet word in the ear when they dont.

And of course players like the rest of us are a mixed bag of personalities. What may work for one, doesn't for others.
There is little doubting the fact that a successful manager has also got to be perceptive with the ability to understand which players need cajoling, nurturing or shown a piece of 4 by 2.
Sir Alex is a man who I don't like much, but I can see how he brings out the best in Rooney for example. He's established that Rooney is a tad insecure so he grooms him gently like as if he's his own love child. With other players he wields that big stick. But one thing none of the top Managers will do and that's to humiliate his players in public.

I think Rod will do well, watched Aveley several times last year.Got two good forwards ,two good midfield players and two good centerhalfs and they played fast attacking football.last year braintree drew to many games rod doesnot beleif in draws he goes for the win.he often ends up playing three at the back to get a result and nine out of ten got it.i think six or seven of his players are good enough for the step up.last year peters,game mingle,starky howells harris,bruno,bailey-dennis mc donald all steped up and contributed to our season.Let the money boys go we signed at the end and play people who want to play for the club.peters,bruce,bailey-dennis,jones started well for us at the back game,mingle,quinton,harris,bruno in middle,marrks power,purcell plus rods new men will see us do well.non of these players are money people not like champion,and the other end of season signings.
