    I don't think that's fair either! You have to take a chance - sometimes they work out...other times they don't. Look at Chelsea with Mourinho & AVB. Both successful pre-Chelsea. One delivered pretty well the other was a disaster. With Thorn we took a chance & it didn't work out. Let's just hope...

    I stayed positive about Thorn to the bitter end, but equally can fully appreciate the reasoning for parting company after 3 games. He showed little sign of delivering what he's promised. And as Mexico88 said...what's all this "FACT" nonsense? We'll never know will we?

    Apparently according to the radio

    BUT - you stated earlier that Robins "is probably the best we could hope for"...based upon what exactly? As I pointed out, Wise's playing & managing enthusiasm, background & attitude PLUS stats make him my 1st choice of those known applicants.

    Apparently according to the radio

    Do you mind if at least I speak for myself? I want Wise based upon his record as a manager & what he will have learned from his Newcastle experience...& watching/listening to Keegan. I would expect he has something to prove as a manager & will therefore bring the same passion & enthusiasm for...

    Ince, Robins or Shaw

    Money might not be the issue.

    The disgusting thing about these 'players'...

    Exactly - you (& I) feel sufficiently passionate about our current state, & therefore motivated to make comments on here dad (??? Is that really you? If not please don't patronise me). If the team were bringing in fabulous performances you may not have commented on here for months. All I am...

    Who honestly thougt...

    We have to turn it around - I think the club is run by ruthless people. Promotion by some means is the only acceptable outcome - I sense from the forum that it's a "failure is not an option" scenario...so it will be interesting to see what happens if we are not promoted (i.e. There are instantly...

    The disgusting thing about these 'players'...

    You cannot say what anyone elses motivation is...for example what motivated you to make a posting about this thread...but not others? Only you know the true answer to that question. Something (or some things) has got the players' attitude to a bad place. Could be salary/bonus issues, formation...

    Brown, Ince & Robins

    Hmmm..."Mr Brown's boys" just to reignite the comedy-club theme?

    The disgusting thing about these 'players'...

    We are all human beings & have certain common behavioural traits. In every walk of life behaviour/performance/effectiveness/outcomes are influenced by 3 things personal to each of us: - Knowledge: do we know what we are supposed/need to do to achieve the outcome we want? (These are...

    peter crouch

    I sympathise with Crouchie...I think he's overlooked a bit purely because managers/coaches in general cannot understand exactly how he manages to do what he does so they think they cannot put a structure in place to suit him...so they dismiss him. The fact is he has an eye for goals...

    Rumour is it is out of two, but who ?

    Yeah...Pinky or Perky...Laurel or Hardy...let's face we have a. No idea because we do not know exactly what the criteria are b. No influence on the decision whatsoever

    There's only 1 man for the job.....

    Shame really - my thoughts are that he's a really good manager & he'd turn us around. Get us up fighting at the top end of the championship & maybe to the Prem over 3 seasons...but it's just a matter of time before he'd think "it ain't worth it" again.

    The 'clueless one'

    Beating Brum suggests they are good enough. Just nowhere near consistently good enough. Maybe Shaw/Carsely were more fired-up themselves for that one (enthusiasm/passion/belief is contagious if it's convincing...fans take note)
