    Agree, but if he does then he should say so, instead of waffling.

    But I think it’s like I said he needs this as he’s in last chance saloon at this level. He only needs to do a half decent job with us and his stock will rise and he’s got a chance of rebuilding his cv

    The defence may be silverline but the rest of the team is a solid Bosch blue.

    Slutsky knew how to use the Bosch but nobody can make use of silverline tat.

    Adkins couldn't tighten a bolt with a snap on pneumatic.

    Since Bruce all our managers have fitted ehabs agenda, cheap but more importantly need the job to prove thereselves. Ehab can then get them on his terms and because they need the job they accept. Only silva has progressed phelan slutsky have disappeared and when Adkins goes he’ll go the same way

    Not sure that Silva was cheap or needed to prove himself, but I get it. Hiring Slutsky was like giving an arsonist a free year's supply of matches. Which leads me to believe, as I have consistently said on here, Rehab wouldn't shed one tear if we hit the arse end of L2. The agenda is to rinse as much money as possible then off-load it to a chancer for £1

    He needed a chance to prove himself here as did slutsky, Lenny had arguably achieved more in his managerial career. They both wanted to manage here, fortunately silva was in a no lose situation which worked in his favour

    No one would have looked twice at Silva for a PL job, most owners probably didn't even know who he was. It needed a desperate club in a hopeless situation to take a chance on him like we did.

    Fair play he took his opportunity, although if Watford carry on with their current form he'll be looking for another job at the end of the season.

    Silverline tools carry a lifetime guarantee, I don't think Bosch do.

    A lifetime guarantee doesn't help much when they break before you've finished a job. It's like giving Michael Hector a lifetime contract.

    Silverline tools are cheap for the usual reason.

    In the 4 games thus far v burton bolton and birmingham

    We've scored 14 goals
    So surely it shows this team is capable

    So what exactly is going wrong?

    Anyone got the Adkins gif floating about on Twitter about the warm up?

    Only thing that has brightened up my weekend!

    If The Slut had started the season with his first 9 games with the form we’ve shown, I think he’d have been sacked.

    And then when you consider this run of fixtures has been considerably ****ing easy facing 3 of the bottom 7 and the other team in the ****test form in the division, at home.

    No but we're more solid you see, so it's miles better.

    Sure with Slutsky we may have won more games, scored a lot more goals but...I forget what point I was making.
