G Block Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Interesting...

CliftonCliff Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Yes, it's true: I've also just received the email from Lansdown. They've got it wrong yet again in my opinion and caved in to the pressure and negativity from a section of the fanbase. Stupid, stupid, backward step and another indication of the weakness at board level. This will cost more money the club can ill afford and cause more upheaval and discontinuity. Further evidence for me of the dysfunctionality at the heart of the oprganisation. They had better get the new appointment right or this will disrupt everything we've been trying to do and could be as likely to take us backwards as forwards. Well done to all the moaners: you've got your way. You'd better hope it works. I won't be holding my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also said the fans wouldn't want him. Maybe they've lined him up, or Di Canio. Or maybe, give the under 18's boss a go. Ex Malaga manager I think?

I remember when we went down and everyone talked about how we'd learn from the past and ensure we have SOD the time required to rebuild. Yeah so that lasted like what, 15 weeks?

Who ever the new manager is will not play the youth and will not get on with JET. Very bad ecision by the board again and I can only see it getting worse. Disgraceful decision.

JammyOne Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Needed to be done. I have no care for the future plans when our present is the problem, let's sort the future out once we've got a squad that can actually compete in this league. We're in exactly the same situation as we were last season, only in League 1 not the Championship. Let's have a better second half of the season. COYR.

Guest Night84 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I think we've waited too long to sack managers when they should of given them more time but if a change was going to happen now is the right time. Get someone in, identify transfer targets for January, try to give everyone a lift. Can't decide if it's a good thing or a bad thing though. Only the next manager will decide that.
