Jesus sort yourself out. Why would SAF beat Nicky Butt's wife?
I don't hit women. I'd never hit a woman. I hit a woman who was trying to hit me with a bottle! That's different, that's self defense, isn't it? Or a woman who did karate.
"Nicky Butt is promoted to the new position of Head of First Team Development, reporting directly to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
English is my third language so my apologies. My point is that if Sir Alex beat his wife then he would probably not lose his job as he was too valuable for the club. However things are different with Butt. He's easily replaceable.
What?
His position as head of academy isn't ceremonial, the "promotion" he got is, but he still does his previous job too which isn't at all easily replaceable.
Same here, pain in the butt they are
What?
Butt is not the head of the academy anymore. He was replaced by Nick Cox whose got way more experience then Nicky had in the role having been head of the academy at both Sheffield United and Watford. Butt has been 'promoted' as the "Head of First Team Development, reporting directly to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. His job is to work closely with the manager and the first team coaching staff to continue the strong bond between the Academy and the first team, to create a seamless journey for young players stepping up to the next level. Meanwhile he will continue to be a key contributor on all major Academy decisions and will be part of the Technical Board on wider football leadership."
Ah fair enough didn't realise Cox had fully taken over the role, thought they still shared it.
Officially butt has been promoted and is still a key contributor of key academy decisions. However Cox has more experience then him + he reports to John Murtough, Head of Football Development not to Butt.
By Caf logic that must have been fine as it wasn’t him cutting his ex wife’s finger, probably whilst snatching the phone he broke off her.
Shiiiiiiiiit. Doesn’t look good.
I must be living under a rock, but what else has happened to the class of 92 during the last 24 hours?
That's an old post. It was about the FA charging Scholes with betting offences.
Butt and Cocks eh
I think Beckham is just about the only one I like on a personal level, previously Butt too.
That's hardly an achievement considered that most of them aren't in football anymore, often after tanking big time (Gaz at Valencia, Scholes at Oldham). So lets analyse his role shall we? He was replaced as head of the academy (a real job) by someone whose more experienced in the job then he is. The club stated that its a promotion and yet Cox doesn't report to him but to John Murtough whose basically have Nicky's nearly exactly job title (Head of Football Development vs Head of First Team Development).
they were developed to become soldiers which was part of an army that need to win at all cost. Winners are rarely nice people.
True that.Sounds like he tried
Cringe
No, they're just dour and thick.
Okay mate
Missed this, what's Scholes done?
Or, Nicky Butt has now got the second most important job at the club on the football side, we'll keep churning out talented kids that will never change but the jump from the 23s to the first-team is bigger than it ever has been and will continue to get bigger while the Premier League are still calling the shots - Nicky on an individual level, or in a small group situation can focus alongside the fitness coaches on what the players need to improve on which will give them more chance of making the step up, and then staying there.
? I missed that. Link maybe?
Butt is the Head of First Team Development. From the point of view of his coaching team, they are lucky that Ole is in charge for all the reasons stated.
