Shouting at them.

Telling them the truth.

Stop making excuses for them.

Put some pressure on them to perform.

 

And a whole lot more.

The days of a manager properly shouting and tearing into a rider are pretty much behind us.  

I agree that he gives them too much slack in the press more often than not tho.

Riders nowadays are so much in a self centred bubble that very few would actually give two hoots what a manager says to them at a meeting.

This is all down to Middleditch.

Tonight's performance backs up everything I said on the Belle Vue v Poole thread.

How many times have we been hammered at home in the new era when Middlo's managerial skills have finally been put to the test?

Why dont you tweet him asking him to resign ?

I'm just being honest about Middleditch.

He's only been successful when he's had teams consisting of at least 2 world class riders.

Time to go imo. It's consistently bad every year now. It's not a one off. The manager has to take the blame.

:D looking good so far :D

Posted before the news broke of Vissing missing allowing the whole team to take a ride.:D 

Somerset so much faster out the starts. Into the first bend two bikes up on our boys. No consistency at all. Belle Vue will whop us next week if we turn up like this.  But well done to the Rebels fully deserved.

Do me a favour.  I know its the modern way of kids of the Football Manager game era to want changes all the time, but are you serious ?

What can he do tonight ?  Front up to a rider and tell em to go out and win the next effin race or he's gonna get the chop ?  Rider will just go yeh whatever mate, i'm self employed, i'm riding for me and if you give me the chop i'll get fixed up next week.. 

It's sad but its the modern way now.
