I think this deserves its own thread, after the last one I suspect Iggy will have much to say  |

Well they binned Poundall in favour for Physio Direct and Phil Rippon so it's slightly better. Instead of the one man army, we get Phil and Physio Direct's personnel and facilities. But no mention of the term 'strength and conditioning' though but I guess each person will make what they want of the deal. |

Well we have a younger team already and Physio Direct (I think) have replaced Poundall so some changes are being made.
I am glad the Q & A is happening again it should have always been a regular thing.

Black stated that he didn't believe that Strength & Conditioning would help... I suspect this might be a topic of discussion again with his 'younger and less injury prone' team.

But no mention of the term 'strength and conditioning' though but I guess each person will make what they want of the deal. Some of this is simply not true. Scott Poundall was on the bench last season in a support capacity on fewer occasions as he is developing his career and therefore had to spend several weekends going to courses. You will find has a young son, whom he wishes to see more of. As a consequence Phil became a more prominent presence on the bench. It was Scotts decision to step down - he wasn't binned and is highly regarded by Corey and the Panthers establishment. Both Scott and Phil have been associated with Physiodirect for some time, although not directly employed by them. Physiodirect facilities had been used anyway, although obviously Mondays at the NIC were very busy.What is true that Scott had a lot on his plate. Physiodirect have been sponsors for some time albeit in a more minor role and have been mentioned previously by the Panthers. They have expanded to several outlets other than Nottingham and as a larger organisation have taken a more prominent sponsorship role this coming season. With regard to strength and conditioning, the situation seems to be blurred. It is good that Neil Black will be available for a questions and answers session. I dont believe that he was lying at the last one, but some think that he was not convincing and perhaps not fully in charge of his brief. Rather than taking the line that it is more lies firstly see what happens and what announcements are made. I feel that information from the Panthers "organisation" has been rather scant. Areas where people were concerned might our might not have been addressed for this coming season. What they seem to have got away with is taking this line but having achieved good season ticket sales, when many disillusioned supporters expressed the view that they would not be renewing. What Neil Black needs to be asked regarding the fitness conditioning is who is performing this task, who is assessing the progress and what changes have taken place, rather then wholesale dismissal of what people think happened last season. |

I too will be hopefully going to them both.
Good to see them happening again. How much truth or how much smoke and mirrors is imparted at them though remains to be seen.
Hopefully though this time there will be better and more permanent questions asked by those present, as last time Neil Black got off lightly for the most part and was very rarely pushed on the occasions where his answers were at best vague.
That that happened was astonishing considering the season we were having.
These events also give Neil Black the chance to take stock of what the fans think - get the view of the fan base (whether he chooses to act on it is another matter. Since the last one some changes do seem to have occurred) and not just rely on what Moran and Neilson tell him...

I'm sure that's all true but I can only go off what's on the Panthers website and all they stated was they'd parted ways with Poundy and Phil will take over all responsibility. We're in good hands, I know that. But as you say, the strength and conditioning aspect is blurred. Hopefully the first Q&A will be in August at some point! |

I can only add what I have already mentioned. The information from the Panthers "organisation" is often lacking, other than producing hype and needs to improve. Again Neil Black needs to be put on the spot and produce specific information on areas where there is concern. It might well be that lessons have been learned from last season, which no doubt would have been disconcerting.
Away from the Panthers, I have been very impressed with communications from Nottingham Forest, particularly from the Chairman Nicholas Randall, who is a man of impeccable credentials. They see to be on a different approach toward supporters than in the past. Perhaps sPanthers could (perhaps) learn from that.

Panthers have never known the meaning of the word ! |

Nice to see Mr Black doing 3 sessions with Panther fans within a few months.
Pity as of February of this year, it's 5 years & counting since he done one with the Clan!

To be fair though, he has to keep Panthers fans sweet. After all, it's not like Braehead would be able to subsidise Nottingham if fan's of the Panthers started to walk away and given his expansionist ideas he needs at least one steady income stream. |

If the Clan fans are well behaved, NB might let them listen to our Q&A on Radio GM....

Wouldn't take much to have the twitter account for both teams monitored live at the event and questions raised from both teams passed to NB to answer. The event could be broadcast live so Scottish fans and any Panthers fans unable to attend could watch. Keeps everyone happy, or would that be a bit too high tech for our owner/GM?
