    He does some daft things, he doesn't inspire and he talks utter bollocks.

    Apart from that, he's alright.

    How many times have you watched them this season? We look more effective with two up front than just 1. It’s not in the slightest bit absurd.

    Which games have we played 2 up front? I can't recall many.

    We brought Dicko and Campbell on up front against Leeds and looked infinitely better.

    We didn't have a shot FFS. If that's the best evidence to support the notion that our usual formation is awful, it rather suggests you were just spitting out a tired cliché there.

    I get it, we're playing ****, but it doesn't always have to be because of the manager or formation. It's ridiculous that they're always to blame. We're **** because we have a **** team. We're absolutely no ****ter than expected. Just **** prep, **** signings for three years and everyone else has gone out the door. It can't always be the manager.

    Oh dear. Angry man again. We looked far more imposing and more likely to pose a threat on goal. Perhaps if you went you would have seen for yourself first hand. We almost looked dynamic.

    Would make a good coach at junior level but whatever he once had at Scunthorpe and Southampton has defiantly gone.
    He should have gone after the Reading game.
    I don't blame him for sticking it out though till gets his pay off once new owners come in but going forward not for me. .

    Wasting your time trying discuss anything with him doesn't like it let alone offer anything other than the same **** over and over again..

    Yes I know. I have disagreed many times with him previously. Yet he accused me of not liking other people having a difference of opinion. <laugh><laugh> Pot, kettle, black.

    When we get taken over he has to go, we might have poor players and a poor squad but he isn't getting the best out of players like Toral and Dicko who are proven at our level. Also far too many matches with no shots on target, even a ****e team can at least get some shots off and look like they are trying their best. The whole Henriksen captaincy shambles sums him up

    The central midfield is awful getting outdone every week, we should have strengthened Norwood would have helped, Big mistake.

    He talks utter utter bollocks, I can forgive or forget most of his faults but his constant positive bullshit has worn me down!

    Sack him now

    Interesting looking at Toral and Dicko's career stats.
    Toral 70 CCC appearances (including as a young lad first move out of Arse), 14 goals
    Dicko 94 appearances for Wolves, 31 goals.
    Both decent sets of stats.
    You are right.
    And certainly right about Henriksen captaincy being a shambles. He has to change it during the break; let's see if he does.
    Fair do's

    I don't think he has done anything in recent years to justify being our manager, football has moved on completely since he had his early successes. I said it before he was appointed so not really changed my opinion. The over-positivity is too much and I reckon he won't have the respect of a lot of the players because of the nonsense he comes out with every week.

    When he does go, he should take up politics and become a spin doctor...

    He inherited a poor squad so have given him benefit of doubt to date but Tuesday was bad.To play Martin against their two centre backs was wrong.They need to be harried and turned.Both of them good for a few fouls against pace.
    Unfortunate with injury but to even contemplate Stewart is barmy.
    No goalie on the bench again not sensible..

    I vote leave
