Pathetic, embarrassing and hopefully highlights exactly why Wasps are a negative for those of us who support the football team. Every time someone mentions Wasps it generates an immediate feeling of anger towards the Council. Reading something like this infuriates me even further. What was the...

He's not the only player who likes this news, he's just the only one to (probably unprofessionally) 'like' it on social media. I think we can all relate to working for a manager you don't respect and who for some reason does not like you. Especially in the world of football where the managers...

Definitely good news, I certainly feel more optimistic about our chances than I did before. I made the point on another thread, but the idea of 20k+ Cov fans turning up to the only game we have had to celebrate for years, to see clueless hoofball tactics and players out of position would have...

He liked to play football, so I imagine players like Bigi and Stevenson will see more game time. Potentially even Ruben. I wouldn't be surprised if he tried to fit Harries into the team somehow too. Players like Beavon, Stokes and, to be fair based on recent games, Reilly who put shifts in...

Yep, but if the issues with SISU were that bad you would assume he still wouldn't take the role. Points to the fact he had his head turned by Huddlesfield as opposed to SISU being the biggest driver.

If the length of contract is until the end of next season, it at least indicates some form of pragmatism and plan from above. It allows him to observe and make decisions on the existing squad and also get the wheels moving on potential new recruits for next season. I also much prefer our odds...

I would also be happy with Robins, but the others are uninspiring in my view.

Am I the only one completely confused by this? One of the main drivers for him leaving was the off field issues, which have only worsened since he left. What am I missing? Personally though I'd take him back, especially compared to the others in the betting....

Well, those names are inspirational.....

He seems like a genuine bloke, who wanted to help but ultimately wasn't good enough. Appreciate we are a basket case of a club off the pitch, but his job is to do the best he can on the pitch. Three key measures of a manager (aside from the obvious winning of games) are recruitment, tactics and...

The start of this season Mowbrays tactics were hopeless, he tried to play a narrow midfield/strikers using wingers, and the wrong players a wing back. The system was too complex for L1 and the players at his disposal. However, your point was about last season. Post November we lost form, but...

I've played on it quite a few times, I personally don't think it can support two football teams (that's circa 50/60 games a season inc cups/friendlies etc), and a rugby team. Plus youth games too. To be fair, I don't think too many pitches would.

Style of football has a big impact on success. The 'long ball' tactics from last year were with a purpose; we got it forward quickly with a plan to use the pace and movement of Armstrong and/or Murphy/Kent. This season it is literally hit and hope to strikers who are not naturally target men.

And Reid, unfortunately he's shit.

I'm going on the Thursday as always - it's one of my favourite days of the year. It isn't nice or by any means ideal that horses die, but equally in a world full of negativity and seemingly constantly on the brink of the next tragedy, I choose to worry about matters I personally find more...

It's depressing and quite shocking to say with 12 games left, but it's already too late. If we had picked up any sort of form, or were playing well, or had the best manager in the world, we may have had a massively outside chance. But we have nothing to hang any hope on. We are down.

Careful, you have the wrong defender, it's Turnbull who's shit remember. In all seriousness, Clarke and Rawson are by no means an improvement on Willis/Turnbull, and I have only seen a handful of defenders this year who are.

That's why going to the gym is for fools. As soon as I got past that annoying initial few months of having to impress the girlfriend when topless, I got comfortable and reverted my weekends back to drinking ale and eating chocolate!

We've been over the arguments for why he needs to go several times, but looking at it from another angle - can anyone provide any form of argument for why he should stay? Take away external factors, such as SISU, Mowbray, Venus, Fisher etc, but as the manager of our football team, has he done...

Even his interview is clueless - 'not about shapes and systems'. WHAT?! You are a professional football manager; part of your job is literally to pick the right shape and system. I'm sure he a nice bloke, and a feel sorry for him, but he's in the wrong job and needs to go now.
