    Doug King - calling it as it should be.

    You think it should be 1 bullet each?

    Right who's the next manager then?

    Please not Lampard. Don't let us be the club where he finally brings his briefcase into the dugout.

    Good intentions - poorly executed....

    I'm not saying there's beenno issues with tactics there clearly has. But there's been a fair amount off goals conceded through poor individual errors that professionals shouldn't be making.

    Everyone wanted him there based on how he played v Luton. I actually had reservations. But that was a schoolboy error that a professional footballer shouldn't make so not really tactical.

    Plenty of the goals we've conceded have been nothing to do with tactics, (the 1st Wednesday being an example).

    Well Shep seemed to regard his source and that's good enough for me. I know Saddles source has an agenda so you have to bear that in mind, but like I say, he's still often correct.

    Anyone fancy Ruben Selles?

    Hilighting standing in front of angry people as a highly prized manergerial quality is the most ridiculous job attribute I've heard trumpeted since people touted Penny Mourdamt as a potential tory leader because of the way she carried a sword.

    You think Shep has an agenda? Saddles might, or at least his source, but he's still got a he'll of a lot right, agenda or not, accurate info is accurate info.

    Good intentions - poorly executed....

    Like I said, I think a lot of it was obvious, ITKs just adding a bit of weight to my suspicions. One thing I'm now convinced of, is if the new man isn't an outside appointment who can bring in his own team we're in deep shit.

    If theyre as bad as is being made out I'd rather get rid ASAP. The stipulation that the new coach has to work with them is highly problematic, (and unconventional), in my book.

    I dont think you understand how 'the model' actually works at some of the clubs you hold up as examples of it. The structure stays the same but not the staff, (or at least some of them). Sometimes it's because they bring their own people, sometimes it's because the departing coach has taken...

    There's a difference between being a numbskull and being promoted far above any level you've coached at before. Which mcould be what's happened in at least 1 or 2 cases. I think your first paragraph is wishful thinking unless the new man can bring in his own staff.

    Good intentions - poorly executed....

    No, because it's obvious if you look at events and apply a bit of logic. And to be fair, Shep is a poster I'd trust. Hes also being backed up by saddles, and despite what people might think, hes got a lot of stuff right, as has gimoc, (and a fair bit wrong if we're honest), but it builds a...

    So much of it is blindingly obvious.

    Delaney was coaching U18s. That's quite a step up, to effectively replace Viveash.

    Again, might not be true, but someone said on here that Roberts put the kibosh on appointing Chris Ramsey, they gave the date the conversation took place. Apparently this was after Robins had agreed to appoint him. Apologies, can't remember the poster or the thread, anyone know?

    Good intentions - poorly executed....

    Well according to Sheps post the coaches weren't Robins appointments and as he says, he was hardly going to say they weren't, which is what I've been saying. He's also saying they're not up to scratch. So I'm not sure how that can be put on Robins if he didn't appoint them. Im sure the role...

    Couldn't adapt?! Christ, have you read his post? If its correct, and I have no reason to believe it isn't then he was landed with a team of sub standard coaches after his most experience coach was removed. How are you supposed to adapt to that.
