Yep. Hes done an amazing job. Plenty teams get a few absolute kickings during a season, and it was our turn tonight. I think the club is still yet to properly establish itself at this level, we're still well short of quality and there are times when it really shows. Unless we're at it 100% our next level down is really poor.

This is absolutely right in every way. Couldn't say it better myself. Every word of it.

I agree I just have a feeling that the People at the top will want us to be better to watch etc and I don’t think he’s capable of delivering it like.

It would be harsh to peddle him but they’ve already shown a few times they don’t really have time for sentiment like.

We shall see how it unfolds

Interesting angle this. There is no doubt in my mind he is using the end of the season to work on a more attacking game, pretty much for the reasons you are saying

Those 9 goals are the consequence. Can build a team which plays on the front foot?

We should be careful what we wish for. Those of a certain vintage remember and regret the demise of Alan Durban who had us as a very hard to beat top league team … but was sacked.

I agree but it’s not even about playing more on the front foot for me like.

Look at forest last night when they won’t the ball they were counter attacking at pace and committing numbers forward and we couldn’t really cope with it

In comparison to when we get the ball it’s slow as fuck. We don’t commit anybody forward it just seems far too conservative at times like.

IMO there’s absolutely nothing better than watching an absolutely lightening counter attack and we just never do it. We barely get anyone in the box
 
I'm still behind him.
But how we finish the season is important for him I think. In terms of points and performance.
I remember Steve Cooper doing very well with Forest. Got them promoted to the PL via play offs and kept them up the following season. They struggled at the end of that first season and started the next season badly. He was sacked before Christmas.
I hope we can get another 5 or 6 points at least and that he is given the opportunity to continue. I wouldn't be surprised though if he club do make a change.

In summary we were neither nowt nor summat last night.
Trying to be something we were a mile off achieving

Nope. To lose 0-5 at home is unforgivable. He should be peddled.

Think you find it’s always a common trend.

People who wanted Ross gone - slated but right
People who wanted Lee Johnson gone slated but right
People who wanted Mowbray gone slated but right, Michael Beale slated but (yes you guessed it) right. The same goes for RLB, all those who want him gone are right. He’s done a decent enough job to get us up and keep us up but we need to look at alternatives in the summer.

Jesus 🙄…… every manager gets sacked eventually it’s hardly Nostradamus stuff. You will be right eventually.

Frankly comparing RLB with any of those only highlights you don’t know what you're talking about
 
of course I'm behind him. We have a couple of bad games and some idiots want him out. After the visitor's game we were concerned he would be poached.

But in reality some have very short memories!!!!

Nope, got lucky in play offs, over achieved this season which is great but he's been found out, we are woeful going forward and scraped through a number of games, conceeding 9 goals in 2 games is indefensable, he is not the future

Alex Fergusons first season at Man U they finished 11th, look what happened after that so who knows what might happen here?
