Lovely guy, top bloke in finding young talent...

but he cannot manage regardless of SISU.

If there is the slightest chance we can stay up then he needs to be replaced ASAP.

Like the bloke but perhaps someone should tell him you need to have a shot on target to get a goal.

Correct.

A team that includes key players getting thumped by Millwall, what is a disaster.

How long will the "nice bloke, it is all SISU" excuses last for?

Can we sack the assistant manager like we did with Kean just so someone's happy?

perhaps someone should have told him he'd only be able to bring 1 outfield player in but only after selling one first.

Regardless of Thorns lack of experience or skill as a manger the players are shite. FACT:thinking about:

React to situations, i.e. when the other team changes there tactics react to it! Henry came on and the game changed! Hes a very good player but still u react to it! If you dont you loose games and points like Thorn has all season! A Job to far i am afraid!

A change will surely be the only chance we've got now. Can't see how thorns gonna turn it around.

As much as I fucking hate sisu... yes we have small squad but this was an experienced side and properly the most inept performance to date.

Thorn has no tactical know how. At 1-0 down he should have changed it. Not at the fecking end.

He is too slow in reacting to the match play situation.

With the squad of players we have .... all be it small there is enough skill wise a proper manager could mould some half decent results from.

It's quite ironic whether everyone was posting that we needed to rest the kids and play the most experienced side - our side is shit

Whenever we play bad we always sack the manager, just look at how many managers we've had over the last 8 years or so... I don't think sacking AT will be worthwhile.

I don't even know the solution now, maybe we just wait for the team to get a few good wins back to back and get the players confident again?

The big problem is Thorn has no tactics. Players will start to lose confidence in him.

Clinigan and Juke will be gone by Jan.

We could be bottom by NYE.

The players need to have a good look at themselves... AT

AT - managers got sacked before me... but players have to take responsibility and not blame clubs situation

AT - older players have to stop knocking on my door and saying they want to play infront of the young players

AT - we need to wise up.... i had a right go at them

AT - they were mice and rubbish

AT - no leaders on the pitch... i have problems everyday

AT - i won't throw the towel in and i am more determined.... it has opened my eyes up

Ok Then Idiots explain this too me, if we get rid like some fools want, who do we replace him with.....AND WITH WHAT MONEY he has to play shit players like Bell, McSheffrey, Baker, Hussey, Murphy as we have NOBODY ELSE, and whos fault is that ......ah yes SISU wont give him the money to do his job, they hired him to appease the fans knowing he would be on the cheap and knowing fine well we would be relegated. I feel sorry for the bloke because SISU have used him as a scapegoat and all of you mugs have fallen for it. Alex fergusin couldnt keep us up with no money. ANSWER ME THAT. PUSB

Fergie would keep us up. I think Thorn is a nice bloke, but he doesn't know much about tactics or plan b's which is what annoys me.

We don't know whether it was him or whether it was Sisu adding to the accounts.

We couldn't afford Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas or the one that used to be married to Prince Andrew let alone Sir Alex.
