I think he needs a season as a starter. That won't happen in the Championship.
I have a feeling the club will bring in a few strikers over summer with Whittaker moving on. I can see a season loan somewhere in League One (just like Woodsy had at Brighton which really kick starting his career).
He will benefit from a coach that plays a front two. Admittedly I don't see any of his games but sounds like a lot of the time he is being played as a lone striker. He was always part of a front two here.
Us greens fans are properly pissed off with this. He's done nothing since retiring. Would much rather have a Chiefy or Talay type in charge who can actually man manage and have a track record of doing well.
Wusty was the one who brought it to our attention. Don’t think it can be Marto- he’s a bigger fan of Waine than Wayno as a manager.
So Anthony Hudson? Bring in Poirot.
Anyone see who made the edit?
Plot thickens- there’s been no edit since April. And Rooney wasn’t in the picture then. It’s a professional job. Need some of the IT smarties to find the IT smarmies!
I mean, the articles that are cited in these two sentences are the source of the information provided. The intro edits were made two days ago and is just an Argyle fan having a laugh. funny that it hasn't been reversed yet by anyone!

To the tune of Shaggy: "It wasn't me!" Lol.
As pointed out, Rooney will get us relegated but maybe, just maybe Ben could learn a thing or two from him. Rooney's signing is like Yorke's and Fowler's was in the A League, based on past glories, not current ability.

But in that song he says ‘It wasn’t me!’ when it clearly WAS him…
Rooney as possible new manager? Tough times ahead for Plymouth if true. But could Waine benefit from a striker as a coach?
Worst manager ever.

Both Chiefy and Talay had no record of doing well before being appointed? Rooney did fairly well at Derby when they were in a lot of trouble, not sure what the expectation at DC United were, he wasn't good there but they did finish bad the next season too. Birmingham was a big failure which makes it a risky appointment but maybe he'll have a spell more like what he did at Derby than Birmingham. At least he should give Waineo some good advice.
Ben Waine interviewed by Piney ahead of the OFC final, worth a listen, can be found on the podcast feed for the show.
He's already sounding quite English which I find a little disappointing. Love it when you still hear a strong NZ accent from Kiwis overseas, Nelsen and Reid never lost theirs, while a lot of people at this point might be unaware Chris Wood was a Kiwi if they heard him speak.
Don’t understand how it can happen unless you put it on
For sure it can happen naturally. I'd sure most people who speak a long time away from NZ, have their Kiwi accent soften for sure.
Don't forget Waine has English parents as well. So grew up in a household of Blighty voices.
Can happen in reverse. Years ago a mate from Uni, went to the UK, met a local lass (later married her) and took her back to the Hawkes Bay for a summer. From memory she worked in a freezing works or something whilst in the Bay. When they returned to Kent, apparently her parents insisted she have Elocution lessons as they weren't happy with the way she now spoke!! Eating her vowels and all that. Whenever he visited our London flat, he got a very hard time about it all.
Slightly off topic, Waine is still eligible for the Olywhites right? If he is, I'm guessing since he already went to Japan, there won't be room for him in the squad this time with Ott, Bidois, Van Hattum, or maybe Donkers getting a chance? I have no idea what's going on with Colloty.

Go read the U23s Olywhites thread. Waine will be in France. As will OVH. Bidois an outside chance.

Does no-one remember we had a Prime Minister in the 90s who used to instinctively imitate the accents of world leaders he met? Guy met Nelson Mandela and started talking like a Jaapie

People who take on the accent of people they are speaking with are inheritantly empathetic. The taking of ones accent, is a subconscious effort to become more understandable to their counterpart... need more like that in politics!
Of course, he could just have been taking the piss!
