Get Todd Out, he's underestimate the league yet again. Someone needs to hand him a paddle cause he's right up the creek. He's been the only constant during our time in this league and has to be the most under qualified coach in it. Burning Tams pennies on the wrong players, playing **** poor systems that clearly don't work. His only hope this year was the challenge cup and he has blown that. How long can Tam put up with this joker for. oh and that bellend of a dj .... Gawn jist choke on a burger eh yer tunes are gash.

And another thing, you want a fast skilled gritty team.... don't sign a guy that quotes in a pre season interview that he's "not the fittest guy in the world" I wonder if gritty means something else to Todd. As someone whos never really been on the Todd Out bandwagon...I can see for myself that space on that particular wagon is at a premium now, and unless changes are made, or the players grow big balls and soft hands...i can see that wagon filling up more as each week passes.

Iv been on it since day 1 of season 3, nothing personal against, he will go down as a legend and his love for the club is undoubted but he's got to go or we will never be the top 5 club that we can be, and compete for anything other than a playoff spot

I think the problem most people have is that, like you say he is a club legend and they dont want to be seen to be rubbishing him. but i agree with you, I dont want to see the flyers be a middle table club. I want to compete at the top end. Its not personal against him, but something has to change.
Its not worked for years, so maybe this should be the last run for him as the coach. If we fail to impress, then lets get someone else in.

I just watched one of Todd's amazing videos from before the season when he speaks about us fans who just want to drink beer and bay for blood....I kid you not.
However I digress he did say that if changes were needed (while talking about us not having an enforcer) then he wouldn't hesitate to make that change. Todd mate you're hesitating.

Todd mate you're hesitating. really? understand that a section of all hockey fans are really just here to watch people fight and attempt to hurt each other, but I find that pretty insulting to call us all red neck, hill-o-billie, catfish noodling, Trump supporters!

Got to admit though he has done a cracking job of deflecting what was 2 c*** performances and the failings in his hand picked team. Nobody is asking any questions of him and his recruitment policy its all about how bad the Clan are and how DOPS are to blame. Check out Todd Kelmans statement on Twitter, Fault lies at the Clubs feet for not putting in the request. They knew the system and how it works but chose to not follow it. But now its all about how wrong the league set up is and DOPS are not doing their job properly. Meanwhile he sits back taking no flak for not bringing in the right players for the league, something we all talked about in the lead up to the season. Kelman has summed it up perfectly, he knows it's a load of mince and flawed, but it's also a very simple process, just follow it! If you feel your players safety has been compromised then get it reviewed. I think he's really starting to feel the pressure, he looks completely lost at sea, and to be honest just in my opinion looking at him and Hutchins on the bench, it looks like something's off if you ask me, I was watching Hutchins at the weekend and he looked like he knew exactly what was going on, that's me just guessing though. I actually don't think Todd wants to be in the elite league and is holding out for another BNL to happen. When are the directors and more importantly Muir going to start listening to the majority of experienced fans that are sick of this. Imagine he held a fans forum... Agree with this, but what worries me is that it may not just be Todd that wants another BNL, but the directors also. They keep Todd as they don't really have the ambition or aspirations of the fans and Todd can keep as staggering along.

Yup really. Enforcer question starts 2.30 in. The comments I mentioned start at 4.05. I was amazed nobody seemed bothered by it at the time other than him claiming we were in 9th place because Matt was on our side. The first time I watched it I was stunned he would say what he did about this clubs fans and the club would allow it to go out in the interview. Its the same with all the "Flyers fans demand a winning team" b/s that he spouts out. We have been waiting for 5 seasons so we cant be that demanding.

Somehow I missed this.
Its an odd thing to say, and i dont think he actually means that we all just wanna watch Hanson hockey. I get that when a team has a fighter, they wanna see him do his thing, but not at the cost of the game. Nearly every flyers fan I know would rather see us win, than lose but beat people up.
Not sure you can blame Matt N for us sitting low in the table tho, he cost us his first game against the devils (in his defence he literally just arrived in the country) but i would argue that without him we would have lost alot more. Having that big body on the ice helps keep the other team in check, and allows the skill guys to do what they do. No big body means our skill guys will be targeted.
It's also all well and good saying Dingle is not scared of anyone (which he clearly isnt - what a guy) but when 5 11" 180lb meets 6 4" 230lbs, you know that its more likely the wee guy will get hurt. And with no one to deter them, who is gonna stop teams taking liberties on our skill guys.

Also remember listening to Dingle last year talking about fighting in hockey and saying it was needed. Brooksy says the best team mate he ever had was Trevor Gillies.
Your not telling me our players would not benefit from having an enforcer in the room. They are usually great team guys and help everyone play bigger.
Get it sorted Todd.

Thing is, not many are privy to what goes on between Tam Muir and Todd. Maybe Todd would like to make changes but Tam won't let him? It's easy to blame Todd as he's the "face of the Flyers" but we don't know for certain if he's being given all the resources he's asked for or not. He's repeatedly commented on playing short and not having injury cover, is this him publicly acknowledging he's not being fully supported from above?

That is a fair point, and I dont think many people will truly know

He is a legend through playing when the hockey was certainly more skill based not sure ge would last in this era .and its the same every season he has misjudged how physical the league was going to be sorry but that doesn't wash now and its easy to blame the players and the refs to hide your own failings at the end of the day he brings the players in and every season they are the same type and it just doesn't work and he is either to stubborn or just clueless to see changes that are needed.we cry guys like Hendrix rosehill and fitzy goons when they play against us but I bet we wouldn't be saying that if they were playing in a flyers jersey just like fans would say that when we had nicker every team wishing he was playing for them
