Yeah, allowing that moment to be aired was seriously amateur. Whatever about the tactics, or choice of words from the coach. Allowing it to be filmed, and used was dumb.
The whole point. I am sure coaches say this all the time to players. However to let it is is very poor by the AFC. It feeds into a club admin that is a bit of a rabble. We all remember Ricuitto slagging off the players that had left the AFC in recent years.
We remember the absolute farce of them grandstanding about matching the Saints offer to Crouch and humiliating their supporters.
The perception is they seem to be in freefall and perception is reality in many observers eyes, this does not help the perception at all.
