Isn’t that the opposite of what required? If we were to change manager it would need to be someone who has done it before, would brook no dissent from the team as they have the demonstrable experience to achieve promotion from a troubled position. You could quote Enzo of course, but I doubt lightening would strike twice on this.

So what are the options? Sack him Risk repeating the cycle without further changes upstairs Might land on the next Enzo/emerging coach Stick with him Let him have this season and assuming we don’t look like going down, see how the momentum is come Easter Let him have the season, but give him some directive to further integrate the youth players Give him until December and if we don’t pick up, terminate The youth thing hangs over this forum like some panacea or silver bullet, but we can see how ineffective youth can be, just as dis functional as some of the senior pros. Of course they are the future, but have doubts that future is right now.

What about if there aren’t any solutions? If we are that rotten that only time and accepting of a new reality is the only way through this?

I was thinking (and still do) we need to stick with someone, but lack of progression of our play does it bloody hard to back you Marti. Yeah I know you got dealt a bad hand, yeah I know the players are largely rotten, but come on man.

It is 100% NOT that in my mind, we are systemically poor, we really completely on individual moments rather than team structure and tactics.

It was a foul

Less than now?

Gerry Taggert?

352?

Carranza has a nibble. Good.

Is Victor injured?

Winks trips him, after Luke pleasured him.

That will do

Carranza is a unit, maybe he can give some back

Dirty bar stewards these

Agree Gerry, we do switch off a little to much

Today,?

Ayew is having a good game so far

I am sorry but that was very good by Ayew

Millwall are favourites. Blimey. Come on!!!

Okoli and Faes?

Doesn’t help for sure, but not really relevant to what I was saying. It’s not a switch, both of those teams developed their teams, and their ability to score goals, over time.

Cov built a team, like Ipswich had done previously, it’s not done overnight and needs patience.

If he says it does, then sure.

It is exactly the Pearson type of persona we have been crying out for to be sat at the top in the DoF role, an almost overseer for the club, someone who can see both the direction sought AND has a handle on the club mentality. I know Nigel did not do it all himself, he has fabulous people around him, but the fix/rot starts at that level.
