Thing is, what IS wrong ?
We have had these problems for years, unlucky ? Probably , to a point .
But continued problems suggest something else.
Pearson came in and changed the medical and coaching staff , we still had problems . Manning comes in after the old coaching and conditioning staff left ( not sure about the medical side) and we still have problems .
To me that says , unless they were all doing the same things across 3 set ups, that it's something else.
Some concerns over the pitches , but while that may be a factor other teams have the same ones and not suffer as much for so long . I don't doubt these hybrid pitches put more strain on soft tissue , I think there is a rise of problems across the sport , but it seems never ending here .
Plus we changed the pitch last summer , new base and different design I believe .
Both HPC & the Gate are the same pitches BTW.Not sure what that leaves to be able to point the finger at . Not a straight forward fix , obviously.
We seem to have had more than our fair share .
Remember when Barry Fry was manager at Birmingham and they suffered lots of bad luck, which was put down to a gypsy curse. To exorcise the curse Fry peed in all four corners of the pitch!
Come on Manning. You know what you need to do!

"Man under the age of 50 wears double-breasted jacket"
...is news.
"Man under 50 wears dress, stockings and suspenders and stilettos" would not be news..........
Unless he was a judge or a Member of Parliament.

What the same manager who doesn't pick Phil Foden
If he goes to manage Man U there will be continuity, as he will still not pick Phil Foden, but will pick Harry McGuire!

No.
Go up the other end and snatch all 3 with a 95th minute winner.

Will go through as and when the full Group Accounts appear @phantom but you find a few headline numbers contained in their report of interest.
The headline number I've just read is that Villa posted a £120m loss for 22-23!
They made a £300k profit the year before, but that was only after the sale of Grealish for £100m.
Anyone else get the feeling that football at the top end ( I'm including the championship) is financial madness and becoming ( if it's not already) unsustainable, unless a club is owned by a nation state, and that we are not far away from a pretty big club going bust?

What are the chances of being drawn into a relegation fight.?
Very likely if we continue in this vein of form.
The worry is that our current slump has coincided with teams at the bottom picking up form and results.
Were both trends to continue for too long the worry then becomes that momentum becomes increasingly difficult to reverse.

Thought this was going to be a thread suggesting that an afternoon supermarket shopping with the missus, is currently looking a better proposition than a home game at AG!

Looking back to the 6-0 defeat by Cardiff at AG. It wasn't the end for GJ but was perhaps the beginning of the end.
Just saying.

The good thing about early kick offs on Saturday is that it gets bad news out of the war sooner
The bad thing is there is more of the weekend to live with it.
