Charlton did it...why not ehLoved his interview and i know it is easy having won but lets forget this must have experience bollox We are a third division club, David Moyes, Tony Pulis, Big Sam, Paul Lambert and Nigel Atkins all started in that division.
The great thing about tonight was seeing Shaw and Oggy on the touchline. A slight re-kindling of the spirit from our last good days as a club - something I'm sure any survivor from the 90s can relate to!
I think some are getting a bit carried away, good performance etc. but let's wait and see what happens in the Crewe game.
I think we should go for the experienced route but if Shaw earns it, he should get it.
I'm glad he kept the diamond!
He kept the diamond but the players' off the ball movement made it effective - and the subs meant the wing backs didn't get too tired. Unfortunately for Thorn that is stuff the manager should be telling his players to do which wasn't happening I guess. Don't want to get carried away, but I enjoyed that
So should Shaw get the job straight away?
Last night the team played well. We beat a team in a division above us over 120 mins. We played at least OK for most of it. This alone is an improvement. We attacked with intent. We came from behind to win. All in all a good performance.
But....we lost the lead, drew after 90 mins, beat a team that has drawn one and lost two in the league and are in the bottom 3 in the Championship. To me it would be like when we signed AT. He had a good start considering he took over a team that was sliding down tje table. We only lost two games with him in charge to the end of the season. Shaw also has a lack of experience. I am not saying he shouldn't be given a chance, but one game against a club that have started badly playing us at home does not make him the one to take us over. We should give him some more games in the league and see what happens. Look at the results last night. Our result wasn't a shock. Stoke went out. That was an upset. Ipswich going out was a bigger upset than us winning.
Well done Shaw, well done.lads, but one result don't mean we have turned the corner yet.

You admitting we had a corner we needed to turn in the first place?
Don't give the job to Shaw. I wonder if the same people that want Shaw now championed for Thorn when he drew a few of the 10 games he took charge of 18 months ago.
Why bring colour into it does the colour of someone's skin give you a problemDon't give the job to Shaw.

I'm worried that the 'great to see another black manager at a club getting a chance' brigade will influence Shaw's appointment also. Billy Davies is my choice. PUSB

I have heard that Shaw has 'been given' five games. Whether that is to prove what he can do or to give the board time to find someone else (or a combination of the two... or even if this is a load of bollocks - I know where it came from, but it does sound like the sort of thing that could just as easily be guesswork), I don't know. I don't think Thorn was the messiah and I think he made some errors in his tenure. I don't think he was as useless as others would have you believe. I also think he is largely irrelevant in what happens. The sensible option is to consider all options.
