LCFC 0-4 Oxford, FT Thread

[ARM1968]

I think we’re in trouble folks, big trouble. We all knew Martin was a bad appointment. Most of us knew Cullen and a few others were actually shocking. The trouble is we won’t act quickly or decisively and we will stick with this prat until it’s far too late. I foresee administration at best. 

[David Hankey]

The downward spiral continues. League 2 here we come.

[Simonb]

Diabolical all over the pitch,  but the defense was none existent 

 

I think the 2 minutes before half time midweek gave myself a false pretence that we were solid enough to bounce back. 

 

Doesnt matter if its Martin or a new manager. This is the style the club are running with but these defenders cant play it.. as much as it pains me to say it, Id start Wout in the next game.

It’s funny that the fans knew he’d be a dreadful appointment. The fans knew Cullen, Burns etc would be rubbish signings but the well paid experts at the club didn’t. 
 

It makes you wonder how these people have jobs in football 

It's an interesting point actually worthy of a proper almost academic look. 

 

Over the last five seasons, the fans (KP drongos aside)  have been right on almost every big selection call and signing. 

 

Every week this board selects fitter, stronger, technically better XIs pre match. And every week the same tried old shite is trotted out. Not just Martin. But the prior two seasons too.

Rangers fans did warn us.

Out of interest, why?

[Walshie is God]

So broken it's completely unfixable until you rip it all up and start again and that won't happen.... not until we are sold at any rate. The club just do not have it in them just look at the past 5 years

They should have warned Mr Rudkin.  We already knew.

On the official club feed it was interesting that there was no post-match chat. Just went to black. 
 

Thats about how I feel about this. Get that fraud gone. Unacceptable.

Normal service resumes... utter shite! 0-3 down with half an hour to go. 0-4 i was gone! Feel humilated and disgusted. Cant score and cant defend with a crap owner and manager running the show. 

 

Martin will take us only one way... to league two. The guy has not got a clue... 0-1 down we were creating chances, makes a few changes and within five minutes were 0-3 down. Fraud manager.

I think we can all agree that League 1 won't play ball with Russell's idea anymore. This notion that he is somehow the Quantum leap between a football Utopia and the traditional clogging of British football needs to end today. 

If he is still in a job tomorrow, then this club will go into Administration by the end of November. You cannot have a stadium with 31,000 seats being half full on Saturdays at 3 pm and a quarter full by 4.50 pm and expect it to function economically.

He doesn't help himself by dressing like he's about to engage in an LGBT pottery class either.

We haven't got proper owners unfortunately so that won't happen.

sadly your right until we get new owners it will be a recurring nightmare, but any new owner has to get rid of those responsible for this mess besides Top

This is the first time in my life I've really started to worry that the club could genuinely go out of business. Even during the administration years I always felt that it as a club would survive and be turned around as the city got behind it.

 

Now, in such a fractured environment, the mismanagement at the core of the entire structure is decimating the long term prospects of recovery. We're way over leveraged and in a position where without immediate improvement on the field prompting a strong recovery, combined with new investment, we could genuinely find ourselves in very serious trouble.

And Southampton and Swansea. We didn't need to be warned. We knew.

[RumbleFox]

It’s almost like everyone knew he was a terrible fit apart from our owners. So predictable and unfunny that it’s become funny. Kill me.

Fans in general definitely know more than what they’re given credit for. If you watch enough football and aren’t a total zombie it’s not that hard.

During the last administration years we had a competent manager in Micky Adams and a bunch of players with decent quality and character.

Absolutely my point. We are in real danger. I said it on here when we failed to get champions league for the 2nd season running. I said this would see a downward spiral we won’t escape from. Some called me an idiot because we won the FA Cup. I wish I was an idiot, because here we are and it’s going to get a lot worse.
