We don't currently look like a better team than the Birmingham team that was relegated imo.

Key word there is currently isn't it

We know that many of the players we have are better than they have shown so far.

Based on Wright and Simms' and BTA's goal stats last season, that Sheaf isn't quite back to his best yet and down to Robins being such a brilliant manager for us

I think we will be well clear of any trouble.

The players don't look interested, and Robins has probably lost the dressing room. Added to our terrible defence and lack of leadership I think we're in massive trouble.

Why’s it pointless? People want Robins gone, I’m interested in suggestions
Click to expand...
Suggestions are pointless tbh. There’s hundreds of potential managers, what matters most is who would want the job and the plan they would present to DK. We’re not gonna know either of those things.

We will be if we carry on like this.

I don't believe we will and will change it round.

Probably a bit silly for us just considering our wages for which a Moyes would demand. Think we’d be better looking for young managers coming up the leagues or abroad who can bring a tactical identity to the club.

Id look at Luke Williams, Henrik Rydstrom (might be a bit too far for us but was linked to a championship role), Michael Skubala or Ian Evatt.

It doesn’t buy results either. Moyes is nothing special.

They're not really things that can be turned around without fundamental changes.

Course they do. They wouldn’t be on the pitch otherwise. These blokes run their socks off. They don’t always run in the right direction…

He would be an outstanding manager at this level. West Ham fans hounded him out for a more attractive style and look how well they’re doing now

Not at all. He had a quick spell and cashed in on it at once. He isn’t a good manager at all

A decent midfielder in, in January, to fill the gap, could make a huge difference

Your final point is spot on. Life doesn't follow a steady upwards trajectory; football's no different.

Sorry, I didn't mean to come across all cynical, I'm just not convinced that King would make such a statement with any sincerity, and that it wouldn't be followed in fairly short order by MR's departure.

My god…

Well put it this way. The same argument was being had almost a year ago to the day, after another match at Preston funnily enough. Go check yourself if you like. Some of the views are almost identical to now- ran out of ideas, doesn’t get the best out of the players etc etc, the works. We finished 9th and got to the FA Cup Semi Final. So there’s one.

We could go back and look at how we started the season before that not too well & we ended up almost getting promoted, or further than that if you like.

the man has a track record of turning bad starts around, it’s not even really up for debate, it’s fact.

This season feels worse, something is just not right. But that history & demonstrable ability to recover from a bad start- for me- means that getting rid because apparently “Times Up” is not justified at this time.

It’s not fact - ok let’s go back further, where’s the track record?

2 seasons is hardly it

One of those we had played less games because of the ground situation.
