Why do people keep bashing his religion? He's clearly a man of faith, you might not be. Just leave it at that.
To be clear I am not religious in the slightest.
Agree…but…..
Wasn’t this based on him giving religious themed team talks?
Apologies if not, But if so, please leave your faith at the door when you go to work. How you think I should do my job to the best of my ability should have nothing to do with your own spiritual beliefs, regardless of what they may or may not be.
Amazed anyone would think differently in this day and age.
No. It wasn't. Someone mentioned that Jones is pretty devoutly Christian (as are lots of people) and this somehow got turned into him basically delivering sermons in training... based on nothing.
There's literally no evidence he doesn't "leave it at the door."
I would be very pleased if he instilled the Protestant work ethic into this underperforming squad.
Wtf is Protestant work ethic ! ?
You may not like the term(i don't)but for a man in his 60's I don't believe you have never heard the term. It's only in the recent decade that the word has gone out of fashion. Maybe it's your idea of a joke or you want to say 'Whoosh'.
I think there are any number of words and phrases that have gone out of fashion and useage due to a more enlightened view of what they mean or represent. I’d suggest that the phrase in question at play here is one of those.
Really enjoyed both of his interviews so far, especially his no-nonsense responses to a couple of very pointed questions from a few journalist who were clearly looking for a reaction.
I pray we all keep an open mind, even if we lose tomorrow. As he says it is very difficult to build anything in 4 days but as long as we get a reaction from the players then its a start.

'The Protestant work ethic places a high value on productivity and frugality and places a negative value on those who do not work hard and try to succeed at their job.'
i.e. work hard, don't let in goals and win games, or you are off.

So just the same work ethic everyone else has, Protestant or not.

Except it was the Protestants that popularised it in the first place.

Made it pretty clear he was the one who stopped Dobbo going and wants him in the team. Let's hope George is man enough to do the right thing for us, despite being treated like s**t by Scott.

The reason he is our club captain, and why he never gives less than 100% is proof enough that he is man enough to do the right thing.
One comment NJ made; that if players like Aneke and Leaburn had been fit maybe Holden or Appleton might not have been sacked.
I think, barring being up there challenging, Holden was never going to be here long. As for Appleton, I think that man is capable of getting Man City relegated.
Interesting to hear that Nathan Jones has known George Dobson for a long time
Their careers don’t appear to have crossed so maybe youth football when Dobbo was at Arsenal from the age of 8 before joining West Ham aged 17 in 2015 🤷♂️.

Jones was managing Luton in L1 in the first half of 18/19 when Dobson was playing for Walsall. Walsall had him loan a few years before that so at some point he’d had become aware of him if he wasn’t already from when Dobson was at West Ham.
Another good presser from NJ. I liked the talk about 'structure' and it seems this new 'structure' includes Sundays whether there is a game on Tuesdays or not. I agree with others that he stopped the Dobbo transfer, which must be another blow to Scott and Co. Finally I think he's realistic to know its going to take time to get his methods across, but is fully aware of the urgent need to get points. I reckon he'll concentrate on confidence building and getting Chucks, Camara, Dobbo and Ramsey in the line-up ASAP!

Looks like his aged already.

Edit: that was an excellent Question to ask if Jones had influence on the Ramsay and Small signings
Just look at Man City's record though whenever they've been without Rodri, or now they have de Bruyne back
