Last time that happened was in 2021 under Mick McCarthy in our worst ever losing run. He didn't hang onto his job that long afterwards.
Since our draw with Stoke, we've played 13 games and we've got 13 points with a GD of -11. This isn't a blip.
Edit, so we've been in relegation form for 1/3 of a season.
We have been poor no doubt about it. Wish we had someone like Wilson now, bet Bulut would have used him.
He'd never get the ball. Our midfield is the issue, it has been for about 10 years.Quote:

Not sure but Morison wanted runners, and Warnock had no need for passing so the two people in charge of the rebuilds since relegation carry the can.Quote:

I sincerely doubt he would be effective as a winger, he'd not get the ball for a start.Quote:

Why would any business spend money - that doesnt have an outcome that makes more money, that's not how business works. Unless he can get players in that will put bums on seats - and that wont be happening.
We are merely the cash cows that get milked every home game.
Boards fault.
Time to protest
How are the rest of our confidence players doing at the moment? :hehe:Quote:
