Starting with the manager. He was weak as piss.

The teams results is a representation of how LJ set then up. Flakey as owt.

Add a bit roy keane to that team and it'll be fine

Agreed. A bit intensity and fight and we'd have won that game.

The fact we were as **** as we were and still managed to scored a goal (and had arguably a legit one chalked off, rightly or wrongly) says it all.

The opposition were ****ing woeful (no offense to them).

Them two clownshoes stood there not even shouting or barking orders at the players was unforgivable. Players too not even wanting to get angry at each other or show fight.

Alan Nixon saying Speakman (and Stuart English) met 5 candidates last week and need to put 3 to the board but they’re under pressure to do so quickly. Wonder if the “second interviews” are meeting with the board for confirmation.

The thing is, that goes completely against what the apparent itks on here and over the road have been posting.

Which means they could just decide not to put Keane forward, just put 3 others forward and make up some shite about him not being suitable. I can't see that happening.

I'm refusing to believe that as it would be beyond pathetic if it were true
 
I still can’t get over this last 9 days.

Get hammered 6-0
Sack the manager
Sign a fan favourite and hot prospect
Fan feeling through the roof
All signs point to an ex manager coming back with huge backing from the fans
38k turn upto watch us play bottom of the league
Don’t play a single January signing
Get turned owa
Still no sign of a new gaffa.

What a f***ing club

I long for the days of having any kind of competent set up at the club.

Missed off 'sign underwhelming manager'

Read the first 7 words of my post again mate.

I am saying he has a role identifying talent, definitely not in charge of the first team squad though for all the reasons you've highlighted.

Fair enough but Im not getting this talent spotting...the jury is out for me.

Not one of the players he has brought in could you hand on heart say he is going to the top.

The shambles of the past week and second interview malarky is doing him massive damage.

If we end up with a McCann or Lennon he is finished at this club. The fans will ensure it.

This, 100% this.

On Friday night I was happy as a pig in shit, felt the buzz was back, loved drinks before the match, rumours of Keane floating about, couldn’t wait to go to the match.

By Sunday night and today they’ve knocked me right back down. Sick of it I am!!

Players like Huggins, Clarke, Cirkin and Roberts are far higher quality than I would have imagined we could bring in, but the first team squad has missed an experienced spine all season. Starting with the keeper.

The jury is very much still out on Cirkin for me and we haven't seen enough of the other 3 to make a definitive judgment one way or the other.

The next few days will determine the future of the Club. If we dont appoint Keane and go for the McCann or Lennon route thousands of decent supporters, Im sure, are on the brink of walking away.
