Cifuentes OUT

[Number 6]

Time's up. Big big next appointment.

[Nods]

If he does go, I just really, really hope Andy King or whoever else is still about informs the new guy not to play Faes, Thomas and Winks. 

 

It's not a defence of Marti because the football is beyond turgid, but he is at least trying to drop these morons. Unfortunately their replacements keep getting injured.

 

I'm worried a new manager would come in and we go through the same cycle of the new guy taking his time to realise who the problem players are.

[Kierzz]

Surely he's gone now. Another manager can't be any worse than what's going on at the moment on the pitch

The sacking is coming but I don't even hate him. I can't get past the players.

Said it ages ago that there isn’t the strength in the man to essentially put certain players on gardening leave and pretend they don’t exist. He’s fallen into the same trap of those before him who thought they could snap shit bags like Faes and Winks out of being soft hearted fairy ****s. He’ll pay for it with his job but hopefully he learns from this in future roles because he doesn’t seem a bad bloke. 

Absolutely bang on Marti is a decent bloke but clearly hasn’t had the support or courage of his convictions to lay the gauntlet down to a good few. 
 

Biggest mistake he made was trying to reintegrate a wantaway Winks and Faes after the transfer window closed, since then the results in the main have tanked. At that stage we had won 3 and lost 1 now look at our record ….3 wins from the last 14 including 5 defeats. 
 

If Marti does go which I think he will and it will be announced in the next 24 hours I hope his successor has the strength and support from above to stick a few of this squad in the bomb squad. 
 

The culture at the club is horrific.

You've got to say "Going, going" first.

Unfortunately he seemed to have figured that out finally in the 2nd half but too little too late maybe, the thing now is we’re going to loop round again with a new manager and he’ll play the shit ones and waste points till he finds out they’re useless tw@ts unless he’s a genius & the board get told who defo needs to go and ain’t in any new managers plan no matter who’s in charge

Ahhh seems my mate was right then maybe he did get called upstairs for the dreaded chat then.

Yea thats a Fair point 🤣🤣🤣

[Mike Oxlong]

The rot is predominantly within the players. Even during the game you can see that they take little notice of him. Too many players who either just aren't good enough or don't give a shit about LCFC 

[Pliskin]

I’ve heard he’s been called upstairs for a proper good bottom smack!

Nah, Rudkin and Top just want to know which horse he fancies in the 5:30 at Wolverhampton.

It will probably be last!!

Hi Mart. Really enjoyed that second half. Fancy being our new technical director as well as manager? 

[Claridges shin]

Been going to watch City since 1976, I've seen some awful sides but always tried to back them. 

 

Today, I left early for the first time ever, and left after 30 minutes. 

 

Never have I seen a side with such lack of desire or effort. Even in the warm upthey looked like they couldn't be arsed. 

 

We need a complete rebuild top to bottom

Who then?

[urban.spaceman]

Couldn't be arsed to change the date

[ian__marshall]

If he genuinely is on his way out, I hope they've got someone else lined up immediately. Not going to happen of course, and no doubt we'll appoint someone in the New Year but one can only hope. 

[HankMarvin]

Lee Bowyer 

John Woodgate

Wayne Brown as coach

[damolcfc]

But we still have the same players.... 🤭

[Noahfence]

He quite clearly isn’t the biggest problem but we can’t keep him. 
 

How can a manager not have a clear style of play? We genuinely don’t look like we’re being coached. . 
 

A better manager could get more out of this squad. I’m 100% certain of that. Or at the very least actually makes it look like we have a clear way of playing.
