TWO GAMES FOR MICK?

Re: TWO GAMES FOR MICK?

Where have the older, over tried managers got us? Why isn't now the time for a younger manager? When is the time? (for me it was the summer after dinosaur liar Mick steadied the ship) why would we go with another dinosaur now, where does it ever get us?

I believe the issue is indeed about timing. For instance, if Trollope had taken over from Warnock after an indifferent start to the season, that would possibly have been a disastrous move for the club. However, an experienced manager like Warnock taking over the reins from a younger manager who was having difficulty getting his team to play proved to be a masterstroke.

I really believe as do most fans than the board has to move away from employing dinosaurs to take the club forward but to do so in the middle of a potential relegation struggle has got to be viewed as an extremely risky undertaking.

At some point we have to win a game but it will prolong the inevitable sadly.

He lost me with the 5cbs against West Brom. We could win the next 3 but as soon as we lose a couple again, calls for him to go will return.

I hope they are using this time to plan and think ahead but I doubt it. Most likely it's all money related, hierarchy praying for a miracle turnaround so they don't have to pay him off.

The issue is when the new experienced manager (if actually) they keep us up they are almost guaranteed to be offered a new contract.

I'd rather roll the dice and see what happens with a new manager, or we, and football in general will never move on from this stupid cycle of jobs for the boys, employing idiots just because they have previous experience and contacts in the game to get them jobs. Jog on dinosaurs and don't ****ing come back.

Agreed, trapped in the short term fix it up jobs. The cycle has to be broken one way or the other.

Just get someone the fans can get behind that intends to get the team playing a bit of actual football. Something we can get behind.

If the results don't blow us away at the start hopefully we can hold our nerve and stick with it as that's clearly the only way.

The cycle has to be broken sooner or later or these dinosaurs will never leave the game.

A few clubs have been brave in recent years, I get it didn't work with OGS and Trollope but that shouldn't hold us back.

And yes, it is important to have a bit of patience.

If we're going to roll the dice, give the fans a bit of excitement along the way. Gareth Ainsworth could possibly be the answer but I'm not sure he would be the right man to lay the foundations for long term success of the club in a way that Graham Potter appears to be doing at Brighton. And yes, I know long term financial support of the board is critical for us to thrive as a club.

I understand we are waiting to drop into the relegation zone before appointing Sam Allardyce or Tony Pulis

Finances are important, but first I'd rather see us get the basics right and get a good structure in place before spending any money, nice reply

Re: TWO GAMES FOR MICK?

We saw versus Reading the team can pass and keep the ball better than Micks five at the back rubbish.
Whoever we bring in i'd prefer someone new and wanting to better themselves rather than the same oldie rubbish like Warnock and Mick and the other pension mob we seem to get linked with

Totally agree. I'll despair if they employ another dinosaur.
