  • Jones could be gone by Christmas, we haven’t improved. 
    He needs time, it would be a mistake to hoof him out until we see how this season pans out.
    Besides, the kitty has not been the biggest and that must have hindered Jones.
    The football is not very attractive having said all that.
    It’s the fourth highest budget in the league, we are nowhere near fourth. Unless you count fourth bottom.
    Whats a budget got to do with what happens on a Football pitch?
  • This is diabolical 
  • Same old same old. Hit and hope, constantly.

  • Shit football. Shit results. We've gone backwards.
  • We are dire.
    So dispiriting.

    But unfortunately we must have learned that sack and start again has done nothing for us for the last 10 years. The only other option is remain loyal. I'll grant you he he looks pretty shit, but so did Curbs initially, and I don't think I for one could face another change of manager.
  • I wonder how long until the ostriches start to finally recognise this situation 

    well done Jones for stopping the rot last season. 

    However the reality is the side and performances this season are every bit as inept and concerning as what we were delivering in previous years under any of garner, Adkins, Holden and Appleton. 

    There’s a common denominator here which is the ownership / structure and budget alongside the managers, but as poor as the player recruitment team is - the management recruitment is too, and Jones is clearly a complete idiot. 

    And his defence is less than most of his predecessors as he’s had a better budget than most of the previous ones seemed to have, and overseen the squad decisions that have created this situation more so than most of the predecessors who seemed to be pretty much just given players and told to get on with it.

    Small playing right wing back is another tactical masterpiece.
    Well seeing that we dont actually have any Right-Backs fit at the moment...
    Edmonds Green? Laqeretabua?
    Not a RB, never played in the league. 
    EG more than capable of playing right wing back. Never know how good the kids are if you don't play them.

  • Probably not as front footed as we’d like to be I reckon.

    The thing is, how much time does he get? He must have known then budget wasn’t going to be great, yet chose to blow most of it on a shit striker. 
    I'll give you that, he could not trap a bag of cement.

    I'd give Jones till Christmas 2025 and reassess.

    Results tend to correlate with budgets most of the time. We’ve underperformed vs our budget every season since being relegated from the Championship.
  • I think he has been backed enough to produce a team challenging at the top of the table.

    Manager can't be blamed when players make personal errors in a game AMB flapping at the original cross and Small making basic error... You plan all week and we started ok.. But then a player does not do his job.. 


    Of course he can’t Colin, I suppose Coventry is still our POTY as well?
    Coventry doing well again..

  • Fighting relegation two seasons in a row in League One, the club’s finished

    The kitty isn't going to get any bigger. And given how Jones spent it, would you give him more money? I sure as fuck wouldn't. 

    Ahadme can't even make the bench (unless he's injured and I missed it). Campbell, Dock dredders. Mitchell been nothing special without Jones. 
  • The only positive for me so far is that my stream is bad and keeps freezing every 30 seconds. So at least I've not been able to watch all of it. I can actually try and pretend that we looked like a decent team in the bits I miss. That's what I've resorted to.

    Doesnt help we've not had a Manager see out an entire season in that time either.

    So each summer the "budget" gets wasted trying to fix what the last mug messed up
  • Literally just hit it long all the time. 
  • That stoppage was our best 5 minutes of the game……
  • Currently 8 points off play offs.....4 off relegation. 

    I'll say that again......FOUR points off relegation places. 

    Just wear red
    Just score the first goal 
    The 6th place team has a GD of +8 and we are -1 so it’s as good as 9 points adrift 
  • I think we nick this 2-1
  • That’s a gift from the ref. 
  • Lmao that's hilarious
  • Penalty!
