Oh be quiet - it's only been 4 games and some of us have big big concerns, but it's not armageddon yet.

Are you going to start a 'Top out' thread as he been here an awful long time as owner and not facilitated the purchase of the Barcelona starting 11 yet.

:yawn:

What's wrong with asking the question? It's what a lot of us are thinking. If you think Sousa should stay fine, say so and explain why. Don't slag someone off just because they start a poll.

Get rid of this please, Give the man a chance for god's sake!

I think the Poll allows for supporters to, "give him a chance" - but I do believe we need to gauge the feeling as to how many agree with that view !

There would not be so much division in opinion if the fans were treated with some respect and the facts of why NP left were made clear. PS has inherited a situation created by MM and the lack of clarity which is now clearly causing a greatly divided opinion and a whole loaad of unnecessary pressure. Whether he stays or goes time will tell - the real issue is our club which is being dicked around

Exactly with the lose cannon that is Milan Manadric still chairman, No doubt our new owners want instant success (More so than the fans possibly) be honest Sousa will not last be here past October, Maybe end of September in current form.

I'm not hitting the panic button yet because one win and we'll be up to mid-table and alot of what has happened with be forgotton, but there is a bit of worry, fear and question's for Sousa to put a stop to, He's still gotta be given time but people are very nieve if they thing some of our fans, chairman and new owners will give Sousa time, It doesn't work like that and people should know that by now.

it could also heap more pressure on him if a negative respose is given, and of course the club needs more negativity at present. You have every right tp post what you want but at the end of the day you like me have the best interests of our club in mind. We will still be here in years to come, we need to support what we have at present and give it time to work. Supporting someone when they are up against it is the best way to assist them.

For fooks sake! Sousa needs time to build the squad in his image. He needs time to get to know who the dressing room shysters are. He hardly knows the players strengths and weaknesses yet. It's obvious he'll make mistakes. The important thing is that he demonstrates the ability to learn from them quickly.

Why not point the finger at the clown that let Pearson go? Nigel Pearson had built a squad based on his direct, no nonsense style of play. Sousa has a completely different philosophy. What was going through this man's mind to think it would all work seamlessly?

If we had got the win we deserved against Middlesborough and the goal had been given as it shoud on saturday would you still be asking for him to go, no change in our performances but more points and a higher league position?

If you think that anyone at the club gives shit about the opinions of anyone on here I suggest you read some of the Fosse Boys threads.

There are already a few calls for Sousa to go, what is the general opinion amongst supporters ?

It is pretty much formed in my mind as to whats going to happen, the next 3 games are going to be crucial for Sousa,

Coventry A

Cardiff H

QPR H

If we only take say, 1 point from those 3 games, given the rumblings of discontent, and the players transfer requests, Mandy will be sharpening his much used axe around the Portsmouth fixture.

For me we have given ourselves a massive dilemma. In appointing a foreign manager - with all the communication difficulties that he brings with him - and inevitably prompting major changes to staff and style which should have been made gradually we have created serious problems which won't easily go away whatever we do and which may have long-term implications.

I'd doubt Wayne Brown's departure helped the unity within our club but instead of acting to re-establish that unity City are fast becoming a foreign leagion football club with increasingly less professional connection to Leicester or even England.

If Sousa goes, the new foreign signings will still be here rather like the Kaebis, Laczcos and Boris of yesteryear... great! If Sousa stays the remaining English contingent will likely move away to be replaced by more foreign signings and the prospect that, if Sousa leaves, they will doubtless want to leave too.

Sousa's appointment seems to have been thoughtless to me - and imposed on us by yet more foreigners. And yet I wholeheartedly approve of our moving towards a footbaling style of play because, as I've said before, Pearson's style was limited, uninspiring and was unlikely to get us to the Premiership much less keep us there.

Already under Sousa there are signs that we can produce a much more entertaining and, eventually, effective team but, to do that, we really have to make some drastic changes to our philosophy even given the wisdom of playing passing football. Cos the players are 100% per cent right about the training and our lack of fitness and our failings in terms of dead ball kicks are embarrassing. So much so that I'd have a new training specialist appointed immediately.

And what a busy man he'd be!.

Realists will have seen that we could easily have been sitting on six points by now but none of that disguises the fact that wearen't scoring enough, have weaknesses in too many places and have a sot defensive underbelly. Sadly for Sousa, the nature of expectations at City - and the undercurrent of dislike for him among many - means that he will have to put things right sooner rather than later. I, for one, hope he does and that he becomes a better manager for it.

Cos one point from 12 with our players is a joke.

In some ways as Ric Flair said lets hope this ownership fiasco is a blessing in disguise.

Hopefully it means he can't use the funds yet and there still in place for the next manager. As he said at this rate we will be left with a squad full of foreign shite and end up having to pay them all off leaving us skint for the next few years ala Mandys first year.

Sergio Hellings, Casino Jimmy, Kaeibi etc

Let me refer you to quote Martin Allen "If my Aunt had balls, she'd be my Uncle."

Hate to point this out but a name like 'Fossegirl' might indicate she has already read the Fosse Boys threads.
