Thorn has done a decent job in extremely trying circumstances but things are getting worse not better. We are heading out of the Championship and if we carry on like this we are going to struggle to win a maximum of 6/7 games this season (with probably no away wins). The way things are looking we are relegation certs. Not all Thorn's fault, mainly SISU's but with no change there's no chance we will stay up. Time to bring in an experienced manager in a vain hope of giving the players a temporary lift in the hope that it kickstarts the season. I appreciate that we have chopped and changed far too often but it is now clear the Thorn experiment is not working. No change, no chance. 2 wins out of the last 20 tells its own story.
I agree, I think the players we have are better than this, I don't think he's a great manager but unfortunately i don't see anyone qualified wanting to take the reigns. Might have to stick with him because we have no other option
The bottom line is our players just aren't good enough, regardless of Thorn's experience or skill as a manager. The players are shite - anyone who thinks they are better than relegation are in cloud coockoo land
How are palace fourth if it's got nothing to do with the manager? It's about tactics and motivating the team, neither of which AT has a clue about. We had more than enough on the pitch tonight to be competitive but we weren't. The buck stops with the manager, not good enough.
