Is that a new manager I see riding over the horizon?

We are already a laughing stock. If KR were to go without him getting until Christmas next then I think that would do it for me.0
-
I can literally not think of another manager that we could get in.
Appointing Karl was sort've scraping the bottom of the barrel.4 -
We don't need to get one in, O'Loughlin is probably stabbing Karl in the back with every phone call to Uncle Roly. Soon his dastardly plan will come to fruition i.e Robinson out, CO'L in (at least until the end of the season), and thus the shit continues.16

if o'loughlin ever becomes chief 'coach*' at the club, I predict a riot.
*note, coach in this context means a supine individual prepared to do whatever the best owner in the world says even if they know it tonne complete nonsense**'
** unfortunately past experience suggests anything put forward by the best owner in the world will be complete nonsense and any individual worth employing would know that and make sure they were not employed by such an imbecile.***
*** imbecile is a word than can have negative connotations, it is used in this context to mean very weak minded and basically wrong. The force is not strong in this one.5 -
Christmas is 10 months away, we'll have been through another three managers by then !ShootersHillGuru said:We are already a laughing stock. If KR were to go without him getting until Christmas next then I think that would do it for me.

As most of us know by now the problem is not whoever the 'manager' is this week. Under normal ownership I honestly think Robinson would do a decent job. He inherited mediocrity and his ego probably convinced him he could turn us around. IF he is given the summer to build then I think we will be there or there abouts next season. Not good enough really but we are where we are and have no divine right to be playing at a higher level.4

would be madness to get rid of Robinson, has to be given till at least xmas4

With each sacking here, the slim chance that a credible manager like Jackett or Rowett would want the job get smaller still7

If we sack KR we should just fold like a Sunday league team when none of the dads are willing to take training any more.5

Wait till the visit to Belgium, then he will be the sacrificial lamb.
He will be happy to get out the madhouse with a nice pay off, Roly will think there I've shown them and Katrien well who knows what she'll think and frankly who cares.1 -
when KR goes it will be Congo Chris, then Nobby Vinegar then ?0
-
Congo Chris will be in before the end of the season!0

This could be the case. Roland's reaction to any embarrassment in his home country will probably spell the end of Karl.Hartleypete said:Wait till the visit to Belgium, then he will be the sacrificial lamb.

If Robinson goes, the next manager will almost certainly be COL and before we know it, we'll be in league 2.0

If I remember correctly the season SCP took over part way through wasn't great and we faded away, it took the summer to get the right players in and build a squad that all pulled together.
Like him or not we have to give KR at least the first 3 months of next season.
But then that's what a properly run football club would do !!!!!

he took over a poor parkie team that played hoofball and smash and grab football but got results even to playoffs and tried to get them to play passing footballAddickedAthletic said:If I remember correctly the season SCP took over part way through wasn't great and we faded away, it took the summer to get the right players in and build a squad that all pulled together.

Of course they pulled together. There are countless examples of teams which have brought in great players only to find they can't get it to work as a unit. Yes we brought in many of the best players in League One, but Powell still had to make them gel and work together properly. It's not easy to win a League title. It takes more than just having a bunch of decent players.floydroadfaithfull said:

I predict that once we are safe and there is no chance of the playoffs, then KR will be told he is surplus to requirements. Most of the close season will then be spent looking for a replacement, probably before alighting on Congo Chris, we will be grossly unprepared for the new season and the cycle will start all over again.robroy said:Congo Chris will be in before the end of the season!
Remember one sign of madness is doing the same thing over and over again while expecting different results.3 -

Indeed, but each individual has a skill cap. Who's to say they aren't already playing at their top level?sm said:
