I remember being down there at 6am queuing for tickets for a few games!!!

We were abysmal second half after an average first half. better team won and no complaints from me. i was hoping the Watford game was the beginning of something exciting but today has left me struggling for optimism. one things for sure is that the points rarely come in the games you expect them to in this league

Why, they’ve got a squad full of young hungry players, most of them homegrown who are only going to improve and for whom the skys the limit. its not like there are a squad full of loans and old players on their way down who’ll be lucky if they can run in a years time let alone compete in the championship

It really doesn’t take much to get them going does it

Nail on head. It’s not about manning. I hope he comes good but I’m worried he won’t. It’s about the lansdowns and tinnion.

I’m glad you mentioned this Mr P . I was thinking about this earlier…. The man who created the sh1t show that GJ walked into has had a big hand in where we currently find ourselves and everything that’s happened lately. this club really is a joke.

No he won’t …. They’ll give him a wad of cash to prove the doubters wrong just like they did with Lee Johnson. And look how that left us financially .

Far from it. We are in relegation battle or will be before the months out

We could be heading to league one though so some of them will fit right in.

Thanks for replying. I’ll get onto them

Anyone had their tickets for this yet through the letterbox?? i ordered mine and selected the delivery option on 29th November and still not had them.

Jim Gannon??

Good OP. Might be on to something but time will tell. Let’s see how we go for the rest of this month. Plenty of games coming up so we will know plenty about where we heading after the Xmas period is over.

I agree. Sadly the cretins who make the decisions at our club don’t appreciate these sorts of things . This is why they thought Lee Johnson was a good appointment. I always felt Johnson was ok tactically but was a shit motivator and man manager , evidenced by him throwing players under the bus and never taking responsibility himself for poor performances. I wouldn’t be surprised if i look back on the appointment of Manning the same way in years to come.

They need to back him in January or at the latest next summer with a couple of quality forwards or we will keep going round in circles. mehmeti and cornick are hopeless. Or have been to date. Weiman and wells getting on now and won’t be getting any better so now is the time.

Mehmeti offers jack shit so that isn’t saying much frenchay!!!

I’ve had a guts full of Mehmeti now. Offers absolutely f all for me. Cornick is ok coming on when we are defending a lead but he is woeful when we need a goal and a spark. what a dreadful second half performance against a Southampton side who have good players but are underperforming due to their crap manager

Personally I’m expecting a top half finish minimum this season. frankly if we have a squad capable of top 6 according to the powers at be at the club and they appoint a coach they are convinced is a stand out , exciting candidate to the role who takes the reigns with us in the top half but then goes on to take us to a bottom half finish I will be f in livid. how stupid would BT and the board look then.

It’s almost as if the club have been telling us untruths

The incident Saturday was just inside the box. Should of been a penalty regardless of a red card or not.

He’s particularly patient with head coaches more so than managers. His wallet is more open for HCs as well.

Well between now and May we will see if the change was worth it or not ie. Will the new man improve us or take us backwards. going to be fascinating watching it unfold.

They hired him to sort out the mess made by their previous shit appointments . A mess which was financial and also on the pitch. once he’d done all the heavy lifting and got us on an even keel the shithouses sacked him, denying him the chance to push on. so yes they do suck.

Brilliant post. I can’t wait for the resetting of expectations shall we do a sweepstake on when this might come??

It was a stupid statement but it was made out of desperation. Desperation to justify the sacking of someone who didn’t deserve it.
