I flirted this idea in the JJ thread and got roundly shot down. It got called the most unhinged opinion ever seen on this forum, I don't think people are for it.

The second half yesterday felt like a team that the fans can get behind, even more encouraging is that Rowett extracted that performance out of them after that shambolic first half. It's gonna be a difficult few match weeks where we might not get any points, I just hope the players stay on his side and we see that level of application at the very least, they were clearly told a few truths at half time.

Dramatic much?? He's strong, good in the air and can finish. But, I can accept when I'm wrong. We can instead insist on playing Daka and Ayew.

I guess I'm just desperate to NOT play Daka or Ayew. I consider myself told.

I'd be tempted to drop the striker to shoehorn JJ into the squad. Our strikers are ineffective at best and a makeshift JJ or Mukasa can't do any worse up top.

I'd be tempted to play JJ up top to shoehorn him in. Can't be any less effective than what we currently have. Would have said Mukasa with JJ behind but I though Mukasa was excellent today in his role.

Feels crap not to win that, but saw enough there to think we COULD scrap this out. Looks like they were finally told what for at half time.

Not sure what Luke did wrong there. Ridiculous from Gavin Ward (shock)

The pitch looks about as "Sunday League" as we do.

Hopefully these guys are about to get a half time bollocking they haven't heard since the Pearson days.

Are we down to 10 men or do they have 12?

We'll need at least 3 goals to get anything with our defence, I don't know if I'm looking forward to this game so much as I'm intrigued by it. Tonight's result will be huge.

Of course not. An appeal has to have substance to it, they have to build a appeal. It's not just "I object"

Because some people just can't help themselves now. If we tied Jurgen Klopp down to a 4 year deal, people would complain that it's putting finances in jeapardy. Moan that it's taken 3 weeks but would find a way to moan if we employed him the next day. "safe option" "didn't even try to get anybody with any pedigree"

Well it's been a full 24 hours since anybody on here found out we were even bothering to hire a manager, so yeah it's probably fallen through, or just working at our usual speed.

Top and Rudkin are currently in charge of this... Its a gamble, though, sure.

So I want to get this straight, your sympathy is with the club (board, players etc) not the fans? You feel sorry for the board (that have mismanaged the club to the brink of financial ruin) and the players (who'll mostly be long gone after relegating us for the 2nd consecutive season) You don't feel sorry for the fans who are seeing the club they love slowly sleepwalking into administration? The fans who turned up in the 3rd tier 18 years ago, and will turn up there again long after the players and board have jumped ship? All because they say some mean words. The players and the board should arrive home after every game and thank their lucky stars they aren't putting in this kind of effort in front of some actual passionate fanbases. This echo chamber of a forum definitely doesn't reflect the meek, placid nature of the majority of our fanbase. I'm in no way attacking you, I'm questioning your view.

The irony here is brilliant, I mean this with as much respect as I possibly can. Why are you still here?? Nobody wants Wout back, he doesn't want to come back. Hopefully in the summer we can all wash our hands of each other and everyone Is happier. We don't need a relative/fan/stalker telling us all WE'RE wrong, we've seen the guy play. It matters not if Monaco think he's great, good for them. The truth is, for what was paid for him (and to him) he wasn't good enough. He's not awful but he's nowhere near as good as he thinks he is.

And who will be there long after these players and this board have gone?? The fans! Because they support LCFC. They don't support owners putting this club on brink of disaster, they don't support players (like Wout) walking away with £1000's per week after giving a half-arsed performance once again, throwing his hands up in a strop after his own mistake costs a goal. You wouldn't understand as you're not a real football person

If we manage to get as much as £0 for Wout, it's Maguire and Fofana levels of "how'd we manage to get that much!?"

So most of them then?

I'm not sure it matters where on Top's list a manager falls, the guy is a moron.

This is fair enough. He's a better manager than Cifuentes and definitely a better option than sticking with King, who will admit himself that he's in over his head. The delay is clearly that we've tried to get better managers in and been knocked back, so I won't be critical on that front. They should still be hounded out of the club on the basis that the 2 paragraphs above had to be said.

"Ready to make an approach" ??? He's apparently your mate, you incompetent brown-noser!! Pick up the phone and ask him what it'd take to get him in tomorrow. And go from there...
