No manager can survive such a poor run of results. We should not have given him this season but we did and it’s not worked out. It’s now when he leaves not if.

I actually believe we have enough good players to keep us in the league, therefore it must be the manager failing, loved GA my one and only day out in Rushden but didn’t want him as manager, I like his effort but still don’t want him as manager. Not convinced Colin is the answer but not sure who else should come in, we could afford or could do better. I actually didn’t want Warbs to go
Yeah, I think another manager could keep us up with this squad.

How dare you mention the breadman....go wash your mouth out you dirty little boy.
 
I thought that when Tim but Dim was mentioned :emoticon-0102-bigsm


Yeah, Didley should head out to his dunny for a bit of self-flagellation for that remark


At ease, gents.

I only referred to Dim Sim Tim to express my opinion of how bad GA was.

l would never, could never, wish for The Puppet of Sherwood to round up our merry men.

As you were.
 
I was never keen on the prospect of a Warnock return, but the state we're in at the moment I'd be open to anything....

His record in this league speaks for itself. I'd have given you any odds last season on Huddersfield staying up, but he somehow managed it. I don't think there's many others that could keep this shower up !
 
As said above. I really do believe our players are not that bad

Begovic, Paal, Cook, Clarke Salter Dunne, Cannon

Field Colback

Each one of those players are not relegation fodder....we have internationals, old heads, skill players, leaders.

Why are we playing so badly....all I can think is that it is the manager

Willock Chair Dykes.
 
It is easy to be critical, but I have been thinking what I would do if I were a board member.

I would attempt to resolve both the short term issue as well address as our longer football sustainability.

My thoughts would be to entice Mark Warburton to return to the club. His role would be to assess, manage and improve the current situation (crisis) as manager, and then at a later stage, say end of the season to formally appoint him as DOF and he appoints the new manager.
 
As usual these days we find ourselves in the sadly familiar situation. We need yet another stop-gap manager to avert relegation and the financial hell that would inevitably follow.

Survival is all we are focused on, not ambition towards promotion

As much as I think Warnock could do a job and keep us up, where is the medium / longer term thinking? Boro stuck with Carrick when they looked abysmal early this season and have been rewarded with a recovery now.

We need to get that elusive manager who can get results with limited resources - Eustace would maybe have fitted the bill
 
"I want us to mentally outdo opponents".

No hope in hell I'm afraid. To do that requires tactical nous, something more than just plan A and the ability to adapt to the game as it plays out.

Someone please send him a copy of 'Football Management For Dummies'.

Apparently, the book has just gone to reprint, again.

The previous DoF resigned because Ainsworth was appointed against his wishes.
And how folk bayed for his resignation. As ever in this strange world of football, be careful what you wish for.
I’m sure the appointment of Ainsworth completely undermined Ferdinand but at the same time he was doing nothing visible to halt the continued decline of the team and club and I can’t see how he is being missed.

Bad boy!!
 
Well, it looks as though the Board are doing nothing (yet).

Meanwhile, GA has had the realisation that “It’s not good enough”. Brilliant and inspiring.

And not good enough from you Mr Ainsworth I’m afraid. As much as I love what you did as a player, you seem to have lost the players and now lost the fans. It feels as though the Board are the only ones blindly with you - well, “that’s not good enough either”.

Something has to change relatively quickly or everything remains the same and fans will stop coming, fans will leave early and boos will the the chorus to your football music Gareth. Sorry, but I want a change.
