City_USA Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 Just now, bris red said: Lets limp to the end of the season and make our change then. I feel for Dean but he just isn’t cut out for the job - still can’t knock him for taking it though. TBH it was a very short sighted decision from DH. There was nothing to indicate that he was qualified to improve on LJ's performance which was what was being asked . This failure could seriously hurt his managerial career. That being said, SL and MA set him up big time for offering him the position in the 1st place, especially the time taken to make the decision .

Finley_Smith10 Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 It’s awful football at the moment but we can’t afford to sack Holden and get someone else in. Just gotta ride the season out then when Income starts to come in hopefully (and I pray) we replace Holden for someone so much better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like they would do that If we stay in the division, which we will, Lansdown and Ashton are happy. But keep blaming Holden and ignoring the real issue. Completely and utterly correct.

Top Robin Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 I am beginning to worry that our poor performances are down to the tactics and strategies employed by the coaches and manager rather than the players inability. If that is the case then our players back from injury and our one new signing will make no difference at all. I know we have scraped results but such long term bad performances can't have gone unnoticed by the directors and they must be a bit twitchy.

Swede Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 It is such a shame. We have gone backwards as a club without a proper head coach. There is no pattern to anything. Its hit and hope tactics. Heaven knows what the players make of it. Surely MA, JL & Co are seeing this shambles unfold?!? We should be at the very least competing at this level but we're so disjointed in absolutely every part of our play. He's lucky we've got the best keeper in the league to cover up the shoddy displays. It's so frustrating as we have the players, even with the injuries when you see the likes of Rotherham, Wycombe, Luton & Coventry outplay us. Once again he got it tactically all wrong today. It's bitterly disappointing to see this type of turgid negative football week in and week out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin101 Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 Holden has to start getting better performances once Williams, Sessegnon and Paterson are back available. No real injury excuses after that point. No chance we’re making the playoffs but we’d like to see some decent performances please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Ashton's words: "Dean is doing what we expected". Tells you all you need to know about the level of expectation at the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree, I’m very great full for all sl does for us off the pitch but can’t understand what he thought would happen by appointing dh absolutely baffling, we have to be the worst or very nearly the worst team in the league to watch, Steve’s in for a big shock when crowds are let back in , so many fans are sick to the back teeth of watching shit football and basically being taken for mugs.

Loosey Boy Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 Absolutely terrible.....as others have said, he ain’t going anywhere whilst the club isn’t generating any income which is understandable......only ever a cheap option and hopefully, short-term appointment.

Hes actually not got that bad a record albeit in the league below. Actually i would take anyone except Pulis thats not currently at our club over Holden God i miss the Cotterill days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tin Soldier Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 DH will get his chance this season, as there is no fans in the ground, no barracking etc. Just on OTIB. But if there were paying ST holders watching this crap, I would hazard a guess it would be getting pretty toxic about now. Fact is Ashton is the decision maker. But the other fact is he has now run out of “star” players he can sale (apart from Bentley), so I reckon SL will give it until the summer - hopefully get pissed off with all this negativity, maybe make some changes then but would I buy a ST for next season? No. That was bloody awful today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
