The football had to be pragmatic. We had an impotent forward line, created sod all and hardly ever scored from set pieces. You can argue that is the manager's fault - but it just shows the lack of quality that we had available to us. We stayed up by the width of a crossbar (Oxford at home)
Looking on the bright side, maybe we are an attractive prospect for decent managers. Come in, do a good job, increase your rep in the game, get sacked, nice little pay off, onto a bigger & better job. 4D chess.
You've hit the nail on the head Ernie!! The strikers he was given didn't match the promises we were given.He promised us a quality striker,he gave us Pedro(Can't question his effort but his best days are gone),Amrabat(Can't knock his effort either but his best days were gone years ago,along with his legs) and a speculative punt from Blackpool(who must've been blessed by the pope himself to squeeze that amount of money out of us.) No harm to the lad at all but he's struggling at this level,a trier nevertheless! I'm not sure what expectations you can possibly have giving a coach these options.Did he seriously believe that Selles would trump Roseniors finishing position? I'll wait for official confirmation(though it looks like there's much truth in the sacking) and if this is true,we all need to hold onto our hats for another rollercoaster ride of a season. No coach,players queuing up at the exit door and an owner who clearly thinks bringing in 38 year old has-beens is the magic formula for getting out of this division...
So when is Acun's next fans free trip to Turkiye then? Looking forward to the next Q &A session Might need more than one fire alarm ....
Think the amount of fans wanting to go to the next Q&A it'd best be on the pitch so there'll be enough seats.
Yep agreed, just think the club obviously expected better and if we’re all honest we should too. Since Selles came in we didn’t win more than one game in a row, it’s not good enough.
Is he being sacked or are they parting company because they can't agree terms? Might Selles have been asking for something Acun can't/won't provide? Like a £xm transfer pot, more say on ins/outs? If he's off I'd prefer to think he walked.
Steve Bruce is in Hull tonight, sadly not to be interviewed for the manager job. The day he walked out was the day this club dismantled itself. As for this owner? Does anyone seriously believe he knows what he is doing and still believes in him?
