LeG

He will be looking at those very people now IMO

The board need to be held accountable. Start by firing Rasmus, and hiring a proper DOF. Enough of the stepping stone mentality. We need to recruit people who actually want to be here. We've had DOF's jump ship, players jump ship, scouts jump ship, staff jump ship. Our recruitment is all wrong. When we drop, I want us to look back at how we recruited under AP and NA. Sign your rivals best players and sign a bunch of captains. Don't go all moneyball. Don't go abroad. Go for the best players in the league you're trying to get out of. We are an absolute joke at the moment.

Hjulmand makes sense. Not ITK.

It has a lot to do with it. But there are also a lot of other things! Shambles.

Guarantee that it's the first thing the new manager will mention. It's been pass pass pass for so long. No running. Training must have been literally a walk in the park. You can see tonight how much fitter Liverpool are. And then there's a one man press where the surrounding players stand and watch...

"but if you believe in something and it's taken you a certain way in life then to deviate too far from that is crazy" I have a lot of issues with this. Life changes and you have to adapt. A good manager in any walk of life will do that. He is representing the players, the staff, the fans. Start putting those people before yourself and your principles. For a stats led club, i'm shocked that they haven't sat him down and presented him with the problem (a mirror). There is nothing wrong with ditching the messing around at the back and just trying to stay in the league for a season (See T. Frank at Brentford) - I think we would all accept that. If we manage to stay up (and i think its too late) we could then spread £120m over 4 quality players instead of on 10 or however many we had to in the summer...then we would have better players to try and play out from the back. We are the laughing stock of the league. Fans have been conditioned to a losing mentality. Have we just settled for that?

Away in a manager?

Let the players play. A manager shouting on the sidelines at you is so annoying. Esp when you were a better player than them.

Fair play to RM. Tactics spot on and managed the game well with the correct subs. VAR is BS. Next game without Downes, THB and Dibling will be crazy. That's the spine of our team gone.

Unfortunately we cant afford it. £14m to sack inc coaches. Takes us to the brink of FFP disaster. If we get a fee for a few players in Jan, we could do it then...but by then it will be too late. Hoping for a Xmas miracle. At least we know the situation. Strap in lads. Get the nuns out.

This could be 9.

Moyes for the rest of the season please, then send him upstairs to become DOF - Potter in the summer if we stay up.

Ross?

Brilliant to get the win. Pleased for everyone associated with the club. Refs have been really poor this season. Ruining it for me.

Cheer up lads. Stewart will be back for this. RM might not even be here.

I'm pretty sure the club have sounded out Potter over the international break. Leicester at home is RM's last chance IMO

The free kick is taken no where near where the foul was. How had no one picked up on that?????

That's another game without a goal and only 5 days to prepare for the next one.

James will come back next year if we stay up.

Good win that, and we played some nice football. Was particularly impressed with Bree. Hopefully that gives us confidence going into the Ipswich game. We do have some talented players in the squad. Really hope it clicks on saturday.

Did we ever replace the set piece coach? Boy do we need to. Club making basic errors at boardroom level and also on the pitch. Need to sort it out.

Ah! You've made the mistake of not leaving it 336 hours before checking the thread again.

Just a little update for you all: He'll be back in 14 days.

What happened to playing your way into the side. Dibbling, Fernandes, Ugochuckwu, Archer should have all started today. We all know it.

Club must be busy preparing the Hargrid announcement video.
