You can hear how fed up he is. Holden is absolutely a dead man walking imo Agree, Holden knows his time is up as well, defeat tomorrow and I think the plug will be pulled , let’s all get behind simmo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it was an honest interview and he was at least realistic about our predicament. Yes it contained some of the same soundbites and much of what we've heard before. I just hope this time the penny will drop, covid/revenue will force hands, we need to be better at what we do, he admitted that. The money won't be there next season and perhaps this 'brush' with relegation form will be enough to force some action this summer, if not before. We'll see. Well, in MA I think he's got the wrong man to steer us. He can negotiate a contract or sale, but he's not a football man and is having too much control in football matters.

Alessandro Posted February 15, 2021 Report Share Posted February 15, 2021 One thing that is satisfying listening to that interview, many of the things we've speculated and debated on here - regularly shot down by some as conspiracies - were as good as confirmed by SL in that interview.

Albert Einstein: The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. I would love GT to ask him why he thinks we fail to reach top 6 or even top 8 or 9? Why many other clubs with lower budgets for example Millwall, Preston etc have finished higher than us more than once. Why proven coaches managers don't get a look in here? Why since his tenure recruiting from within has generally been disastrous? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all seem to know exactly what MA is, and that’s just the public image we see, which SL also does, except he also knows him on a much more personal and professional basis. I’d wager he knows exactly what MA is, SL is a very astute business man and will know how to read him, I’m sure of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether that's true or not I don't know. But it must be immensely frustrating paying the likes of Nahki Wells all those thousands every week. He has to be even worse value than Louis Diony.

Its not just the results though. The performances are utter drivel. Thats what needs to improve imo for him to keep his job.

From 99-00 to 19-20 I think it’s 10 in div 3 and 11 in div 2. Splitting hairs slightly. The point is, we don’t really have a lot to show for the last 19/20/21 years.

So when he says more has been spent in the 2nd tier he's right, wasn't it also phrased 'under him'? So knock the first couple off and you're looking at 2/3's the time under Lansdown being spent in the 2nd tier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjak Posted February 15, 2021 Report Share Posted February 15, 2021 25 minutes ago, Johnny Musicworks said: He fronted up which was good and it was the traditional vote of confidence from the owner that is required before a sacking. Listening to that I would agree that the change will come soon. He has now gone through the motions and will make the change because having to say that avoiding relegation is now the priority must hurt like hell. But it really does not matter if DH Is sacked, while Ashton remains we will never recruit a top class manager. We will just get another "Yes man", as no manager worth his salt will want to work within a system, where he is constantly answerable to Ashton. It is like working with your hands tied. We need a complete restructering if we are ever to be successful? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
