  1. Much better response that's been. Don't like Enzo telling them to calm down as we probably need the emotion right now when we're under pressure but let's see one of those games we had in Dec/Jan when we put teams to bed in the 1st 15 mins of the 2nd half.
  2. Enzo is doing this on purpose now
  3. Why doesn't it make any sense? If Enzo isn't at fault for players failing to out away chances, how can he be responsible for when they do?
  4. No, I mean idly sit by and watch a handful of players form get worse and worse each week and refuse to change them, whilst the occasion the fringe players did play was the only bright spark of the last 6 weeks. Their reward?? Ignored again.
  5. He'd got 8 in 8 prior to Friday though. I advocate dropping under performing players but not after 1 game in amongst the best form of any striker this season.
  6. It's not having 3 kits that's the issue here ad we always had 3 in the erad you talk about, it's that they change EVERY year rather than every other year.
  7. If we lose tomorrow you could well see it getting cancelled last minute.
  8. This is not a deliberate ploy, we've lost the plot and can no longer control possession. We give the ball away incessantly.
  9. Coady was excellent vs Bournemouth and Sunderland, the only games we kept clean sheets in in ages. He's exactly what we need now. Faes spent most of yesterday arguing with Ndidi, his head has gone.
  10. You seldom ever miss with your posts. Bang on.
  11. If we are to still go up, it'll be after we've all lost our shit with him and the players and then we go and win the next 4 and the bum sniffing starts again. Norwich will be rubbing their hands together with us though, we need a huge season defining result.
  12. Looking forward to Zach Booth coming back too. Briggs will challenge in the next 18 months as well.
  13. Jake Evans recently been called up for England (presume U16s) which is a huge achievement.
  14. I'll do my best. Still feel hungover from Thursday though and a shadow of mesen.
  15. Recording tonight all being well. As of yesterday afternoon Jord was livid, welcome to the club.
  16. Shakespeare isn't currently at a club is he? Battling cancer, it would be quite something if they both overcame their health issues to lead us back up and the sort of ridiculous goings on that we are part of.
  17. Nigel Pearson would take this until the end of the season, I'd not usually be an advocate for such things but we are in free fall and need someone with a connection and track record.
  18. I keep reading this, but the evidence in the last 6 weeks or more isn't there. We don't have any interest in continuing to create chances when we go 1 nil up, ever since the Leeds game we've froze in the headlights. Bristol City looked dangerous all game, all that would have happened is we'd have gone 1 nil up and invited them on even more. We'd have needed to be more fortunate than we already were yesterday to hold on, we saw at Sunderland how much we rode our luck in such circumstances. Our mentality is all over the place. There's not an in game scenario currently where we're strong.
  19. Very much like our new ground was a burden to us for several years until Vichai bought it, this will be gargantuan to run for a sustained period in the EFL. Considering the allowable losses are only £13m a season, it doesn't bare thinking about. It'll be a ghost town down there.
  20. I think you're right pal
  21. In the same token we can't praise Enzo for when we were doing well then. I've never ever seen a manager act like he has in the last 6 weeks, certainly not in their 1st season here.
  22. I keep giggling at the folk who say " Vardy takes 2 of his 4 easy chances and we win the game ". Have they watched us in the last 2 months? As soon as one of those goals had gone in we'd have stopped creating and invited an already dangerous Bristol City team in to chance after chance. That doesn't excuse the misses as they were hideous but our mentality and Enzo's failure to inspire is overwhelming.
  23. For those that think this is an unthinkable possibility need to understand the extraordinary situation we are in. We simply cannot afford not to get promoted, if we don't then what's to come is likely to make 2004-2008 seem like a 2 week stay at the Ritz. So with that in mind and the realisation that Enzo's philosophies require the ability to recruit specific players that aren't easy to sign cheaply then post this season he's just not suitable for this club. So the brave decision is has he got the experience to get us over the line in these next 8 or dare I say it 11 games? It doesn't seem so, I'm at a loss to find anything that shows me he's got a plan other than placing all his trust in the same 11-14 players playing exactly the same way as they have all season and that the opposition revert back to no longer pressing us in fear of being taken apart. That said, this is our board we're talking about here. They'll not have thought that far ahead, the concerns about suitability going forward won't be on their radar and they're on a 1 year reaction delay so it's probably pointless us discussing this.
  24. 4 points from 6 games, scored 6 conceded 10. Relegation form at the business end of the season. A huge reaction is needed
  25. Yes it is Enzo's fault, the malaise of the players the last 6 weeks has been staggering and he's doubled down on not changing anything.
