coalman Posted 5 February, 2023 Share Posted 5 February, 2023 Might as well start preparing for next weekend's relegation 6 pointer. Lots of questions before this match: - Will Jones still be in charge? - Another week in the reserves for Caleta-Car and Orsic? - Diallo to start again? - Saints to set up to invite pressure? - The ongoing mental disintegration of Nathan Jones to continue in his pre match presentation. At this juncture it's hard to speculate beyond a Wolves win as we never beat them no matter how well we play they seem to nick a goal. Despite that I'm still hoping against hope.

Dusic Posted 5 February, 2023 Share Posted 5 February, 2023 Although it feels its been the same every game for a while, surely if we are to have any kind of chance to stay up we simply have to get 3 points here. Considering we have just spent £60m and will have some home debuts ordinarily the fans would be up for it, but obviously Jones totally changes that. Big decisions for the club this week but if he is still in charge then somehow fans need to almost forget about him and get behind the team like the Everton fans did yesterday.

Micky Posted 5 February, 2023 Share Posted 5 February, 2023 (edited) What's the point? Really, what is the point? We are down, gone, done, relegated without so much as a whimper. This group of lightweights, under this fraud of a manager will simply roll over at the first sign of trouble. It would be easier to send them the points in the post to save the fans the time, money and heartache. Can you imagine the likes of Gabriel, Magrath, Baĺly, Case or Killer, (and many others who've fought for us) wtf would they be thinking watching this weekly shit show? Unless something drastic happens, Wolves will win, easily. Edited 5 February, 2023 by Micky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hypochondriac Posted 5 February, 2023 Share Posted 5 February, 2023 If he's still here I'm going to be fascinated to see who he plays and how he sets up. That should give us a good indication of where he feels he's been held back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miltonaggro Posted 5 February, 2023 Share Posted 5 February, 2023 Wouldn’t it be lovely to have Lage and Selles on the touchline for this. With mad Nat still here we lose this - prediction 0-3.

As much as I hate knee-jerk and fickle nonsense, I cannot see how his position can be tenable for any longer after his performance yesterday, both in game and after game. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He showed in a couple cup games that possible, due to what I can only say is luck. The rest that he has shown that follows is dire football with no winning game plan and logical sense.

wooley7 Posted 5 February, 2023 Share Posted 5 February, 2023 His hubris has really put I’m in a corner. We should expect to see some clear changes on the pitch and improved performance. If we lose again how does he explain it then? A real part of me is thinking ‘Ok, right, no more messing around go full Jones, let’s see what you got’. The rest of me says he has shown enough and needs to be replaced before this game. We could all do with some entertainment and a heavy defeat at Wolves should produce a very interesting post match interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
