Probably with Jack at No. 9 knowing Ralph.

I did wonder is KWP will go to LB.

Do you realise you have stated lets try the same thing different results and said he is bringing a player back into the team who hasn’t played for a while in a different position. Are you aware that whilst it may not work, it is trying something different, and isn’t actually the same. If you get behind the team, you may actually feel better.

Based on what? Seriously, Wake up Whelk.

YEah, i agree - but i think he is also personally invested in us, which is why I dont think he wants to walk away. There is a point though that he may want to walk if he feels he cant get more out of this current squad, which may be the case in hand. But if they back him in the summer, which I have a feeling they will do ok, my thinking is we can do better next season. I’m quite looking forward to it.

Im not sure how we would know what the manager has or has not challenged. Was he doing really well challenging our owners during 2020?

Yeah i dont disagree. I mentioned Villa i think as i work for a company that is ultimately owned by their owner. I was making the point that some investors have many fingers in more pies.

Thanks Charlie, means a lot to me 😂

Yep, like some of our fans.

Like I said previously, it may not be viable, some investors would look at that type of development which includes buying the club, other, different types of investor also just look at standard investment portfolios, sale & leasebacks, that part of stuff. I was only saying it could be an option for someone, alternatively we may just be looking for an investor to purchase the club with no real estate angle. Everton are doing something similar i believe around the development of the Wharf or whatever it is, and didnt Chelsea do some hotels and stuff also?

I think you try to act sensationalist for effect. Keep it up, it can be entertaining at times. Although I'm disappointed you gave no details of your route. This makes me think you made it up.

Well, I wouldn't want you to be my boss, and in the real world, your way doesn't always happen very often. Not where I've worked, anyhow. And yep, I think I we are just fundamentally different.

Yeah, I've also thought about him being here at the wrong time, but I also wonder if it is such a problem if he grows with us. If that happens, we will have bumps in the road. And maybe it's a guy feeling, I think season will be good. If not, I hope we dont fuck up like you've suggested.

Fair enough, and I can see why you say that. I just see there is some and want to see what the window does for us. I guess opinions are like arseholes 😉

Yes, problem with that aswell?

Why is it strange? You seem obsessed in finding fault in what people say. What would you say is my opinion of Ralph? The chat I had with him was I think he is on very thin ice, about his stubbornness etc. We had a chat about him thinking Arsenal have a better team than Man Utd and Leicester, he thinks they should be top 6, I disagreed totally. Would you like to know what I had for my breakfast?

Yeah fair enough, I get that. I'm sure there are other managers who could do a great job, and who may want to come to us. Like I've said loads, I'm all for giving him time, see how the next 6 games go and the transfer window, and if he goes, he goes and I'll support the next guy or girl that comes in.

Does your memory only stretch back 15 games or so? Are you denying the runs we have gone on under Ralph, or do you believe it has always been like this bad run we are in? You also know very little about my friend, so I understand your statement. But he doesn't read the Athletic, but great analogy. I was only passing on a conversation that some people neutral see things different to those who want him sacked now.

I'd hope you tried to help the once good employee to get back to their previous performance rather than cut them off like a cancer.

You make some very valid points, in that Sam could do a job. And other could too. But I didnt say no one would be interested in us. I asked for suggestions on who could work out. I'm not sure if it deliberate, but it often happens on this site when people twist what had been written.

I was talking to my mate who supports Arsenal tonight and was talking to him about some of the stuff on here. He said we’d be crazy to replace Ralph, mainly due to the potential we have with him, despite the form and 9-0’s. I mean sure, someone else may come in and do better. They may do worse.

I asked what was the point, which i dont believe you replied to. But true to form, you read what you want to hear, helps you fit an agenda hey 😘 You still think I’m someone else then Susan? Who knows about Ralph and his tactics, maybe he will change them Friday and we will only lose by 8 goals...

I have to admit, I still want Ralph atm, but am very surprised he hasn’t tried to change a few things on formation. To be fair though, we have tried a few different formations I thought a while back, and he settled on what we play with now. And I didnt think we play as high a press this season as we did last year, i thought we try to retain more possession now, set traps and break when out of possession. The trouble is, and Bednarek is a fucking joke at it, trying to nick the ball as it comes into their player. he got done a number of times that led to a goal, think one at Newcastle was him doing that, and the 3rd for WBA too (although that may have been Vestegard). 2019/20 we had ave 49.2% 20/21 we had ave 51.7%

Did we need a defensive coach when we won loads of games? Did Ralph fuck off at the saltiest chance of a better club coming for him? It does need sorting, but really dont understand how, as others said, we have largely the same below average players. Had we not had the start we had this season, and averaged the same number of points, people would be a little pissed maybe, but not calling for his head like this in what has been a strange season. Any suggestions who would come in to replace him and how they would get a different tune out of the players we have?

So what, are people not allowed to change their minds? Isn’t that a good thing, that he recognises he needs to change something he previously said. You fuckers should be working for AC-12.
