    I hear you. It still doesn't solve the problem does it? As has been proved. Eh hem...Moyes

    Mowbray Out

    From what I'm getting...it doesn't matter because if they don't turn the club around in one season, they'll be gone and we'll be hiring Phil Brown in 2018...

    Mowbray Out

    Careful, your penchant for insulting valid opinions only diminishes yours. It's not 'idiotic'. Take a breath, Coleman was fired in favour of Boothroyd. Who's your 'upgrade' for Mowbray ? The fact is; there's no track record of success when we continually fire managers. End of...

    Mowbray Out

    Apology accepted. The point is obviously lost on you. We are where we are dispite 10 managers in 8 years. Are you suggesting a higher turnover would've yielded any real achievement?

    Mowbray Out

    Strachan was a poor manager. As highlighted by his repeated failures since. Yes he may have done 'okay' for a season, but then, look at the money he had to spend? I'll never forget him complaining (after failing to beat a nine man Forest at HR) how difficult it was to play against nine men.

    Mowbray Out

    No matter how much you want it to be; A lack of further failure isn't 'success'. We are a League 1 club that's had 10 managers in the last 8 years (incl caretakers). I don't think, even you, would think that we've not had enough changes to blow the theory that success comes from repeated...

    Mowbray Out

    Your definition of 'success' seems to be the problem. Would you like to highlight our actual achievements in the last 25 years as a result of managerial changes?

    Team leader required

    When Johnson plays he seems like that kind of player. Don't think there's anyone else in the team that comes close.

    Expectations at begining of season were...

    Band wagoners and die-hards aside, this isn't a new phenomenon. The trajectory of most fans' expectations are generally steeper than the teams' actual level of ability, and therefore, achievement. Whatever the reason for the drop in form, (taking in to account all the results to this point)...

    Murphy/The first goal

    I was talking to a friend of mine, former player at club level and for England, who went on to manage. This was his take on it; 'I saw the goal. In Murphy's defence, the attack was not nullified and the "golden rule" is you stay marked up until the ball is cleared a reasonable distance from...
