Esmond Million's Bung Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 1- Only 1 possible option available (SOD), we aren;t going to get a Warnock/Holloway etc, etc. 2- Our squad is poor, especially at the back. If Carey was unfit today, he had no other option than to play a totally shot Fontaine. 3- As a club, we can't attract players as easily as other clubs (geographical situation doesn't help us) as we are trying to apply FFP rules unlike some other clubs who are gambling. BCAGFC 1- You never know who will come out of the woodwork. 2- and DMC has added to that poorness and even played 2 of them today. 3- Bullshit The guy is seriously out of his depth, he is trying to teach brain dead footballers a different system every 7 days and sometimes twice a week, this bunch would be hard pushed to learn one system for the whole season.

+OfficiallyRed+ Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Surely, if he was going to get the boot it would have been ages ago. Since he's still here, I don't think he's going anywhere. But I hate talking about this. No one really knows what's going to happen. It's far too late to act now. We're already doomed. Not if us, the fans try and save our club by making our voices heard... its up to us if we want him gone, not the board! the fans ARE the club, always remember that!!

NVMal Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Not one person has suggested a replacement? I agree the team selection today did not make sense. However the players he has brought in would take a whole lot longer then 5 months to sort out. The only person that has a chance of sorting them out (because he supposedly knows and trusts them) is McInnes. For what it's worth i think he'll still be here even if he takes us down. We need to get behind the team, that's the best we can do to try and help get us out of this mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCAGFC 1. Only one option - why? Advertise the job, see who applies. We are a championship club (just) with a wealthy investor. Who knows what options we have. 2. Only option is Fontaine - whose fault is that? 3. We have more chance now than we will have when we are mid-low table Div 1. Anyway - we do attract some very good players to keep our bench warm! Sorry - but I'm fully in the 'out' camp now - this bloke is ruining my club and I've had enough of tenuous reasons why he should be allowed to stay a moment longer.

Habberss Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Well, we do what genoa did. Go on the pitch at half time, we can show our frustration. Or do a Villarreal and actually throw rubbish onto the pitch. Or why don't we just stop going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcfcnick Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Big decisions for the board - if they allow Derek to shape the squad starting from this week in the transfer window then, realistically, he is staying until the end of this season and will be given a chance for the first third of next season even if we go down. It's Di Cannio for me if he'd come. We might still go down but there would be fun and passion along the way and he'd be familiar with league 1 and more likely to get us back up if we were relegated. I suspect though he'd keep us up. Steve Lansdown likes good communications with his managers and the overriding factor seems to be 'will I get on well with them' hence his selection of Tinnion, GJ (good choice and the only one with a bit of an edge to him) Millen and now McInnes so I can't really see him going for Di Cannio. Ultimately SL will have the say and I could see him being attracted by O'driscoll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esmond Million's Bung Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 OK, here is a simple question, I have seen plenty of excuses as to why DMC is failing and they do not wash with me at all. So the question is this give me some 'real evidence' of why you believe he is still a good manager and the right manager for us?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 If they are going to do it they have to act now. Saturday is a pretty meaningless game for us given our league position, so the board have a bit of time before Leicester Sat week to have a new man in place.

So the question is this give me some 'real evidence' of why you believe he is still a good manager and the right manager for us?. He saved us last season by managing to sign a few players who made the difference (mainly Bikey). This season, we haven't got anywhere near that kind of budget, so we have to look for free transfers (Bates/Mark Wilson etc etc) or players that are not quite up to it. Not McInnes's fault. Fontaine has showed in the past that he is capable of playing at this level with the right players around him, not DMs fault that he is a useless **** this season. McInnes cannot affect player form/attitude, if a player doesn't apply the instructions that he has was given before the game, then all the manager can do is replace that player from the bench (which he did today).

pongo88 Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 After Del having over a year at the club City still need a right back, two central defenders and a midfield player. If the club back Del in January what hope do we have that he’s capable of getting anyone that’s any good? I haven’t much hope but I believe, unfortunately, that the board will back him. With luck he’ll prove me and the other doubters wrong and pull off some amazing signings. That still might not be sufficient as there’s no guarantee that he would play them in their correct positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCAGFC Walls budget is lot lot less than citys and they have taken four points off city this season mate. Mcinnes should be able to affect the players as this is what managers do. Millwall at the gate looked organised and fitter than city. Organised is one thing city have not looked all season and this is down to the manager.

Guest Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Its funny how fans opinions change by match, it was only a few days ago............. Facts dont change however; sacking DM and bringing in someone else would cost a bucket load, then whoever it was would require more for spending money, we are debt ridden.

BCAGFC Not McInnes fault that Fontaine has been useless this season? But surely it's his fault that he keeps picking him, he's been awful literally all season, there are other players who can step in, but they don't get a chance. Example - Danny Wilson - signed from Liverpool, never given a chance despite us conceding goals all over the shop, this is a defender who impressed as this level last season for Blackpool, not given a chance and going back any day untested McInnes out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcfcnick Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 I'm not so sure Di Cannio will be on an expensive package at Swindon. They have conceded by far the fewest in their league (18 compared to 50 for us) and still score freely. He's also done wonders on a minimal budget with a 50% win ratio. He'd bring a smile back to the Club but he strikes me as a loyal person and might want to see things through at Swindon. There are risks with appointing him but it would create excitement and optimism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
