I've also got a spare adult ticket for today

Really?

Why would you be concerned that a new manager would want to move on average/poor players in order to improve the team.

Pathetic and disrespectful poll after 1 day into the job

I actually don't think you do wish him well as that would blow up your 'Pearson was the best' argument.

If you had listened to his presser, you will see that a young manager with that much drive, ambition and knowledge will never be a 'yes' man to anyone or allow anyone to divert him from the path he is on. He was really impressive and so articulate. He knows where he is heading and nothing is going to get in his way, and we could be on that journey with him.

I dont think we will ever agree on this one SA.......I whinge about underperforming managers and you accept them. We both find each others views hard to comprehend. But so long as we keep it civil, and at the end of the day, we both are big City fans.

Welcome Liam. Despite being fairly critical of our managers who underperform (and there have been plenty), I will always give new ones the courtesy of giving them the time to prove themselves....and I really hope you do. I'm afraid there are some on here that will never offer you that courtesy and will never accept you, mainly due to their adoration of the man you replaced. I suppose it's up to you to prove them wrong. Good luck!

If he's rubbish why keep him? But I'd give him till end of the season.

Yep - which is why we aren't

FFS let it go - it's verging on embarrassing. And call them dead wood or average players or players past their best, same difference really - but to include Wells, Tanner, King, OLeary, Weiman, maybe Williams and James. If we want to progress further, we need a refresh..and not just the manager.

You seem to be not a very nice person

Pearson to 'anyone' will never be any good for many on here. Yes, I appreciate the disappointment of Pearson going, but you need to accept that he's gone and instead of dissing every new manager suggestion, try and come up with something a little bit more positive - and perhaps a name that you would like.

Do you not think the new manager may drop him?

He's from Norwich

££££'s and career progression

Its probably not 'bullshit' as Oxford are 2nd in the league.

His high level contacts may outweigh his average managerial ability

I knew nothing about Eustace before, apart from the fact that his Birmingham team totally outplayed us twice and looked like a really well drilled unit. If you bother to read up on the bloke you may find some information which could make you think that he perhaps isn't that bad an appointment.

If it matters, he is younger and fitter.

Don't be depressed, he is a good manager

Yes, the reaction of people on here since the sacking isn't giving much away.

In his defence, he highlighted that playing on the front foot, being aggressive, having pace and attacking was important and that any future head coach should concur with that. I think most of us would agree that that is what we want and probably what managers would aspire to. Having said that, I can't bear this 'jobs for ex players' lark. I hope Tinns lets any new manager get on with his own agenda and keeps his nose out.

No they're not

Yeh that 32% win rate over 3 years was amazing
