I only talk about Ricketts because that is what I believe would happen, not what I would personally want to happen. You have said yourself on many occasions that sacking managers has worked.

Well yeah, One win is better than two draws, but we simply cannot lose against those teams just above us. They are all six pointers. We could have been 4 points behind Oldham after yesterday. We ended up 10 points behind.

Lower league dogs? People like Clarke, who played at Colchester and Bury and Orient and Bradford? People like Foley who played at Charlton and Blackpool and Luton? People like Sam Ricketts? We've had allsorts. Experienced, older professionals, who should be leaders and warriors. The young...

Last January window was poor and now it is looking like maybe this one is going to prove to be poor too. This has got to be the worst season for a long, long time hasn't it. When we went down from the Championship we won 9 games for the season. We have 4 wins so far. There are still 16 games...

The advance planning that can be done is, that you play the players now who are going to be here next season. If DKE is here next season and Foley not, you play DKE. You look now at what you have to work with next season. You can't do that much, but there are little things you can do.

Yep, agree. The players such as DKE and Harries, that Oucho has just listed, are the very players people on here were saying shouldn't have been dropped after Tuesday. Of course, Oucho didn't go to the game OR watch it on TV, so he will have no idea how well they played. ;)

Yeah, he's on the coaching team isn't he?

I honestly now think the only chance we have got to stay up, no matter how slim it is, is to bring a new man to the helm. With Slade it is not working. I have never been one for sacking managers early on, but this is all very desperate. I know Slade has only been here 5 mins but nearly everyone...

And even though he WAS right, Venus should have never said publicly that these players were not good enough for League One.

You are missing the point, Oucho. ;) As I have said several times this evening, I am basing everything I have said on the fact that Slade is only here to the summer. Did Adams only have a contract til the summer? ;) If he is going anyway and we keep losing, then what is the point keeping him...

Well next week is my mum and dad's 65th wedding anniversary. Maybe you're right and it won't work out for them. ;)

Which is why I say the only chance we have is that of a new manager bounce. It is clearly not working for Slade. If he can't get a single win in 8 games how on earth do we think he is capable of getting 4 wins in a row.

I would prefer survival to Wembley any day of the week. Think people were preferring Wembley on the whole because we look all but doomed and incredibly unlikely to survive. If you believe we are going down anyway, then Wembley is all we've got.

Not quite I would say. Yep, a horrendous drop, but then very, very clearly fouled by their player coming in, who poleaxes RCC to the ground. Not excusing him, because it was a terrible drop of the ball, but within a split second he is knocked to the ground making it impossible for him to...

Oggy was also in charge at the academy and did a poor job there.

She'll be too busy counting the money and pimping.

Yep, but my thinking is that Sisu wouldn't do that now at this stage of the season and WOULD go for the cheap option of the likes of Ricketts.

Just assuming on the fact that Oggy has done it before and was crap and there isn't really any one else besides the youth coaches.

So how long until we can open a new branch of Halfords?

It's highlighted now, you're right. There is a lot of kick it long and hope. Makes it all look worse.
