Admin notification for all: The home page link and the activity link to the site keep going down at the mo - if you experience this, go in via any other ways ie notiffications, prem or club board links, they all work fine. You just have to navigate around the broken links. I posted on this thread as it was latest accessed. Mods feel free to move it.
I’ve been sort “100%” convinced he’s not the right guy for about 5-6 weeks I’d say. I’d been having doubts for about 6 months but I just see zero signs of any corner turning and players/ performances just keep getting worse, so I have zero reasons to want to persist with the status quo. I do have a degree of sympathy for him because I was one of the few who said the summer window was a disaster in terms of squad strengthening and that Ange was gonna have an uphill battle but we’ve been beyond anything worse I could’ve imagined. I would’ve thought a probable 7-9th place finish, not becoming one of the Prem’s whipping boys.
I have to say the last two games have been worrying for me, and I am starting to lean towards the "he must go" camp. As I've said, tomorrow is crucial for me, not withstanding the bloody long drive to watch that!
We sure they haven’t downed tools? The remarks have been abysmal for ages now. I’m not sure they are responding to him, although what is there to respond to?
We are currently 16th, wolves are only 2 points off us in 17th. There is a real chance we could finish the season in 17th. It’s lucky the 3 teams at the bottom are so bad otherwise it really would be squeaky bum time right now. Yes Ange has had bad luck with injuries, but to be where we are is an absolute disgrace, and a lot of the blame has to fall at Ange’s door.
We haven't seen the usual evidence of players downing tools such as playing the game they want regardless of what the tactical plan wants/needs them to do, or the most obvious one where they straight up approach the touchline and ask coaches what the hell they're supposed to be doing while bypassing the manager completely
Following the exchange with Brian, and a later reply from crackerman jack. It's clear to me that the problem is my use of the word AGENDA. A word that clearly means different things to different people, often according to the context. In view of this and in the interests of board harmony, I withdraw the word and apologise for any misunderstanding caused by my use of it.
Thanks Spurf. @PleaseNotPoll and I have reviewed the conversation from mainly Thursday and into Friday. Whilst we found that nobody had breached our rules, we did find some ambiguity may be found in some of the terminology used. We agreed with Spurf that a clarification would be helpful. I hope everyone is satisfied and we can move on to the inevitable victory in the Europa that will lift everyone's mood. Seriously, if anyone still has issues, feel free to contact the mod of your choice for any further discussion needed.
Attack down the flanks, overloading with underlapping fullbacks Though this season the best way to demonstrate this plan is find a clockwork toy, wind it up, and then place it four inches from a wall
The killer is that we're getting something approaching the first choice xi back, but we haven't seen the temporary boost that would give to the team - in fact the three match win streak in February was right before they started coming back Even though there's obvious intangibles such as the returning players being rusty and the ones who have been slogging in their absence being burned out, you would expect a temporary uptick in form based on the raised morale, but instead the closest we had to an uptick was the second leg against AZ - a game which is surprisingly easy to forget about after the double header against the back-to-back away trips to Fulham
Well, we didn't think you were using "agenda" in the "context" of a meeting of the board of directors of a ltd company, did we.
