| Anyone remember this.?  Steve Coppell, legend manager in the 90's  was a  very successful manager  at palace.  back then  he had a very unique method of watching the match as manager in the stand for the first half. Personally I really liked that and what sence it makes in today's game when teams are all about keeping shape.

| Ruggers are much more advanced in this aspect than football. The coaches all sit up stairs analysing the game and messages are relayed to the players via the water boy on the touch line.

Yes up too a point lefty. It's kinda strange when you watch the NFL with all the radios in the helmets as well as the coaches & QBs sat there digesting the game on their Microsoft Surface tablets from the sidelines.

| I've sometimes wondered whether players would be allowed to have tiny headphones to receive direct coaching and tactical instructions from a manager/coach sitting at a good vantage point. 
 If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities. | |
