Stephen Hughes Posted 25 January Posted 25 January (edited) 4 minutes ago, ClaphamFox said: Yes. I am not arguing, interested to hear your point of view. We have no patterns of play, no energy, lack of motivation, one of the lowest in the league for sprints and ground covered. Individual brilliance has gotten us through some games. I can’t think of one player, other than JJ, who is outperforming his ability. The players have to take ownership, but ultimately it falls on the manager. I don’t for one second think we should be challenging at the top, but also this squad shouldn’t be in trouble of relegation. So I am interested in your point of view?

My point of view is that I don’t think we’ve necessarily reached rock bottom yet. That doesn’t mean I think we should keep Cifuentes, but we should at least be aware of the very real possibility that the club sacks him then appoints someone even worse. 1

Who could be worse than Marti seriously? Anybody would be better even Rowett would be a better option. 1

And given their recent track record.... thats more than a possibility

Out of curiosity, baring in mind we've just lost at home to Oxford (bottom but one and who's last away win came against Sheffield Wednesday in October)... I genuinely dont feel it could get any worse. The line up is picked blind folded and theres zero tactics. I am confident that even some of the worst managers on earth, even those we see as comedic suggestions, could get better results that Marti. 1
westernpark Posted 25 January Posted 25 January We can’t get anyone who is employed, unless they have no release clause- our current manager had to pay his own fee!

The main problem is the deep rot that has set in the club under Top’s ‘leadership’ since Vichai’s death. And while Top/KP remain in charge, it absolutely can get worse.

Raj Posted 25 January Posted 25 January Some of the names in the last few pages shows why we eont get rid of Marti. No one half decent with a reputation ( Hood one by the way)will want to come here until we get rid of all the mavericks in the summer. Then it will be a good challenge for a young hungry manager to get us back promoted to the championship!!!

He’d be a disaster. I get you don’t think defence is important but we need someone who can instil discipline and organise the side.

Come on, I challenge you to make a list of 10 that would be worse. Of course any list would have better managers in it than Marti 😭

Winstonthedog Posted 25 January Posted 25 January If .... and it's not going to happen ... for KP to be upfront and tell us the plans looking forward ... but then again they probably don't have a clue themselves

Need to just maximise our attack and score more than we concede.
Parker Pen Posted 25 January Posted 25 January Fuchs, he’s slowly turning it around at Newport! Two home wins in a row is something we are desperate for at the moment. Maybe approach him in the summer. He was a Pearson/Walsh signing so will have that level of grit and determination that once had 10 years ago.

That's a very real possibility, because with each recent managerial appointment they've been worse. 2
