If the lads want to leave because of a bad run of games that they were apart of then not sure they are the players for us The players will be wanting a manager they believe in, whether that man is appointed now or at the end of the season
You would really hope that if target number 1 would come in now that everyone would give them time and not judge anything on the last few games of a bad season. I can see why they would hold off, but I can also see the sense of getting them in now (if available) Feels a bit like a no win situation
Youd hope so mate but a minority now have it in for the club no matter what happens If our 1st choice is available now then we should get them in now
It's always hard when results are going wrong, I think all of us can see areas that need looking at and re evaluation. The one thing that stood out today taking to people was they just want to see some hope and a recognition that changes are needed.
Its probably been coming for a while, confidence is low and we haven't been playing well. As much as it hurts losing like that, it feels a bit like something the young lads needed. To learn from and develop
I find it hard to believe that people within the club don't recognise that changes are required. I thought the minutes from the fans forum thing reflected that they do. It's a difficult time of the season to make big changes though. Appointing a new head coach being the only tangible change they could make. If the man they want isn't available, even that won't happen. I can't see them being willing to give it to anyone who could be a letdown PR wise.
Agreed, theyll learn so much in this run - now just need to hope they learn quickly Couple more championship ready players will make a huge difference
I agree, but I'm a bit greedy. I would like championship ready players with the potential to be premier league players. Hey, I can dream, can't I.
The minutes are lip service the club have to do. I wouldn't expect them to be earth shattering and certainly wouldn't want them to reveal strategy. I hope the club do learn from this, this summer will tell us more, but there i see no issue discussing it, although I also appreciate it does over take things.
The worst thing they could do right now is rush into an appointment to try and appease fans. Let's be honest, we have nothing to play for and for all we know lots could be going on behind scenes to try and be better prepared for next season. While it feels like the end of world right now, I genuinely think we are on a decent path and just need a couple of better players and keep the core of team. And a proper manager who can inspire and unite the fanbase.
I remember back in the summer you mentioned how important a CDM was and I thought we could cope without one. Boy how wrong was I with that
Yep i think its arguably the most important position in football. Rodri is obviously the stand out player in that position and hes more important to coty than haaland is Hopefully we get a quality cdm in this summer
With a couple of exceptions (Hemir and Burstow) I agree with all you’ve said. 09 sent his email then had a **** game. They’ll sell more tickets if they have less **** results not through emails. They should have got an experienced head in till the seasons end. It was an error giving to to Dodds. It’s one of Speakmans biggest errors I think. I like Dodds but he’s deep in it now.
I still think Dan Neil could be a hell of a player as cdm. But I'd really like another Evans to be there this summer
Same here but i feel neil is best going box to box at the minute. A quality cdm will help take Neil's game to a whole new level (if he is still with us)
I really rate Neil, he's become our heartbeat. I'd love to see him higher up with his passing but I like him sitting deep dictating our play. Not bad for one of our own
Dunno if it's been mentioned already, but Liam Rosenior would be a good shout. Plays good football and seems a really decent bloke.
