I like him.
He comes across really well.
Speaks clearly and very articulate.
I’m confident that the players will know what they are meant to do and there will be a plan.
I’m not sure experience is the only factor for a head coach.
If they appointed Steve Bruce you could easily say he was experienced but probably not a good appointment.

I DO hope we win tomorrow, it would be such a shame to see all these fine sentiments turn to dust in the space of 24 hours!

I didn’t realise he is only 34! The third-youngest man to take charge of Huddersfield Town. |

It definitely is not the only factor👍 I have said a few times on here before that our most recent successful coaches Wagner/Corberan had that something else, the x factor or whatever people want to call it that gave people a buzz or sense of something happening. Both Schofied/Buzz lacked this and so do some more experienced coaches. However for me Narcis gives me that sense 🤷♂️ |

He is the opitomy of Hudderfield town for me, despite him being spanish, He has that personality, persona, passion, eloquency, everything..... in spades. He is Wagneresq in his manner. I thought he would have been a good caretaker after schofield and said at the time the new headcoach is already under our noses. If ever i wanted someone to do well its this guy. The only sad thing is that one day it will be over, but lets hope he can take us on a magical journey.

I posted this about Fotheringham a couple of weeks ago
*I can't see anything that I like about HTAFC, the town or the fans in him. Wagner was a passionate man, affectionate and is one of us. Carlos was calculated, quiet and clever. What are Marks attributes?*
In Chicho I do see what we HTAFC is all about. I really really hope he smashes it.

This is the thing.
He get’s it, he’s eloquent and I bet he get’s 100% from everyone around him.
3 points tomorrow and a welcome lift of depression is my prediction.

Albert 'Dick' Pudan was 29 years old when he took charge in 1910, he's the youngest and the second youngest is Fred Walker, he was 30 when he became player-manager in 1908.
Siewert was 36 when he took the job, Schofield was 42.
Boring, I know!

Compared to today they were practically living dog years so those two in todays reckoning were at least mid forties to early fifties 🤣 |

I‘m hopeful Wilder will be a perfect fit if given the opportunity. |

A Spanish bloke talking football seems to carry more authority than a Scottish chap....with apologies to Stein, Shankly & Ferguson.
Listened to the interview, and in my opinion give him a go. At least if Town are now in his bones as he says, he could be the one to lead us back if the worst happens. Probably why bigger names don't want their CV tarnished, and are already making excuses for not being interested.
Onwards and if not upwards, at least not downwards!

One thing that struck me in the interview was that he didn’t feel it was right to leave us and join Carlos after what happened last season, even though he had the offer.
I may be reading too much into this but I think he’s echoing what a lot of us felt, in that the club stood by Carlos in that first bad season and after what we achieved last year he should've at least done another season with us.
Really pleased that Narcis appears to agree with that sentiment.

I’m not sure what a performance coach is and how it differs from a fitness coach. It may very well be entirely different. There is some overlap, but they are very different. A performance coach is typically focused on improving an athlete's overall performance, both physically and mentally. This might involve developing and implementing training programs, working on technique and tactics, and using psychological techniques to build confidence and resilience. A fitness coach, on the other hand, is primarily focused on improving an athlete's physical fitness, strength, and conditioning. They typically develop and implement exercise and training programs to help the athlete meet their fitness goals. From the kind of phrases and confident positivity that comes out of the Chicho's pre match presentation today, it's no great surprise that he has a good relationship with someone in that field, as he naturally exudes that infectious positivity and feeling of being part of a team in spades that embodies everything that a performance coach might train someone to do on the mental side of things. The guy is a natural motivator. |

I remember growing up thinking footballers were these big grown ups. Then I got to the same age and I felt old. Now I'm older than the managers aswell. One foot in the grave!

Sadly you can't say "almighty lord" anymore as he ia about to become "our gender neutral person who art in heaven"... It would be interesting changing 'The father, the son and the holy ghost' into a gender neutral phrase. Perhaps somethings will stay as the are. I don't know about you, but if God isn't sat on a cloud helicoptering his all-powerful wang-of-creation then it just doesn't seem real to me. |
