It would have helped if we had that attitude last Monday...rather than seeming to settle for a draw...and get turned over.
9 wins in 45 games, and now he asks for 3 wins in 3.....nice one, AT.....:facepalm:

Some people get the club they deserve...
You really can't blame Thorn for this unholly mess. He was a scout who was offered the chance to become a Manager by a bunch of spivs. Would you have turned it down? I know that I wouldn't. He has been given very little support by the spivs but has nevertheless got on with it. Had he been given the financial backing that the job required and then made a mess of it, I would agree that he should be sacked.

sisu know nothing about how to run a football club...that much is true by appointing thorn in the first place as manager,they done so because he was the cheaper option..would i have refused the position had i been in the same position....NO! i would not..but then again...i would of got more than 9 wins in 43..with the same squad as he has had...also thorn being a defender..why cannot we defend...

Ahh, the totally original "Thorn's a scout" argument that people love bringing up! Massive yawn. Tell you what, Thorn didn't ask to be manager, he took it on when asked. He was dealt a pretty crap hand with resources but some people have taken to personal abuse against the man, some agenda that's way out of line. Ridiculous, picking out comments such as this one and trying to ridicule him.

My banner went home on the Soton coach after spending 3 games hung over the a444. I decided to forget about Sisu and put that energy into supporting the players. If and when we are relegated i shall be making another only this time im hoping others join in and we can all unite in showing our disgust at the way our team has been run by these tossers! PUSB

Whilst they laughing at us because we're mugs, they've got investors breathing down their necks to make sure that Sisu make their money back. Otherwise I don't think Sisu would be doing anymore laughing.

Some blinkered people here
When finally the Sky Blues sink he should do as a captain ( not an Italian one mind) and go,yes he was given a choice and took it hoping he could do it but for fucks sake he hasn't even done his badges ( has he done any since taking the job ?) he's helped sending us to league one but merely a Sisu's puppet.
God help us next season

I'll be with you all the way for that mate. I personally don't rate Thorn particularly highly as a manager but I've not lost sight of who the real villains of the piece are here...we are where we are because of shitsu's gross mismanagement, particularly over the last couple of months when we needed them most. Whatever Thorn's shortcomings as a manager, the embargo...which I'm amazed some fans don't see as crucial to this...left him pissing in the wind.
It isn't thorns fault he was lumbered with the children we have playing for us... this team proved in the last 8 games they cancompete uptown a point at this level. They just couldn't be bothered in the previous 30.
I would love to know any manager who could have done better. No money. Players sold beneath his feet and owners intent on driving our club into oblivion... thorns done well when you consider the crap he has had for a side.?

Dead right. He has one arm tied behind his back. He may not be Mourinho but he's trying his best and deep down we all know that. His best might not be good enough but that's not his fault is it and if anyone thinks these idiots are going to fork out to sack him and actually stump up on top for a proper manager with a proven track record then they are deluded. We are were we are manager wise and there is butt all we can do to change it.

Yes, people are blinkered. So blinkered they didn't know he'd taken his badges last summer. Look, if he goes he goes, if he stays he stays. I'm fine with either, I don't have a personal agenda against a bloke I don't know personally and try to ridicule every attempt I can get! That's my issue with threads like this.

We probably wouldn't be about to be relegated
That's actually a fair point since the margins of success and failure are currently so tight.
I'm a Thorn supporter, since I think he is doing a decent job with the resources available and is definitely improving as are the team. The main problem is that we shouldn't ever have been subjected to this and with an experienced man at the helm not now, but from the start of the campaign, then I'm sure we would have gained those extra few points that would have made the difference. I'm not suggesting we would be doing significantly better as you can't make a silk purse from a sows ear, but at the same time it would more likely have been enough to move us the other side of the relegation line.

Why are people trotting out the argument that Thorn and the players didn't care before a few months ago? The reality is that we've not got a great first 11, with a paper thin squad if those 11 can't play. Our manager isn't the greatest thing since sliced bread either. The owners haven't put cash forward to strengthen the squad and therefore we lose games. It's not rocket science.
If you have a poor team, you lose football matches. To suggest that the players weren't trying is ridiculous. Why would anybody want to turn up with 10 of your colleagues and 11 of your peers, not bother trying and get shouted at by 16,000 people?
We're still in with a shout of staying up and I'm sure everyone who is there on matchdays will be giving it their all. Thorn deserves our respect for staying on board a sinking ship where he could have left us to drown long ago.
