    No thanks! Would rather the players just picked themselves.

    It’s turning into the Facebook Fans Forum on here, sad times.

    You mean we're getting a Turkish manager who'll work from home? :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    We had a manager, he got the sack, like people were asking for, remember? Then remember when he put his hand in his pocket and signed players for actual money? Also remember when we had bugger all fans in the stadium and he sat down and brainstormed ways to get more people in and then did?

    Yeah we're ****ing doomed with this guy clearly.

    IT'S OCTOBER, we've been pretty **** but we'll get better with a new manager and a new way of playing.

    So far we've played:
    Bristol City (17th last season) - win
    Preston (13th) - draw
    Norwich (PL last season) - win
    Burnley (PL last season) - draw
    WBA (10th last season) - loss
    Coventry (12th last season) - win
    Sheff U (5th last season) - loss
    Stoke (14th last season) - loss
    Swansea (15th last season, currently one of the form teams in the league and 5th) - loss
    Luton (playoffs last season, 9th this season) - loss
    Wigan (promoted from League One, 16th this season) - win
    Huddersfield (Playoff final last season, **** this season) - loss

    So just under half our opening games have been against either teams that have come down from the Premier League or finished in the playoff positions last season. There are some inexcusable performances in there, for sure, but to claim we're knackered already is total ****ing bollocks.

    Is it?
    Hmm
    Lot of players clearly not performing on big contracts
    On long deals too
    Do we need more signings to get us out the **** in January?
    Or will a new manager galvanise this lot? I don’t know??
    Do we go for a dyche?
    I doubt he will countenance half this-lot for more than a game or two
    Foreign manager parachuted in. No idea of the league but got the skills but again will he want half this lot
    Seems to be a chasm in the dressing room with the contracts doled out and the existing squad
    No idea personally what we will do or what. will happen.

    We can't forget that we are still players injured and quite influential ones at that.

    Stop ****ing hissy fitting.

    Well for one Tetteh, who was linking and assisting well with Oscar before he was injured.

    That's a relief. Get Tetteh back and we'll hit the top 6 no bother.

    Glad you're here to keep us all straight.

    So why is the player who replaced Tetteh not doing the same thing if it was working so well?

    Because they're not working and generally being a pain in the arse for defenders like Tetteh did pretty well. Him and Oscar are the only new overseas signings who seem to "get" this league and what is required. Same with Allahyar.

    When did I say that?

    Did Tetteh play better than his replacements have since?

    Maybe because they aren’t as good?

    Maybe Acun should sack Daws and do it all himself?
    Seriously though, he’s on a learning curve with us as we are with him. Let’s stop the knicker wetting now and see how this pans out.

    Lol seriously..... If it's just the case of replacing a player and the replacement should just do exactly the same as the player he replaced, why don't we just sign national League players, save a shed load of money and storm our way to the champions league
