Interesting that you should single out the Trust asking that question and not the Supporters Club who have twice as many reps on the FAB as the Trust. The Disabled Supporters Group could have asked that question as well.Quote:

Agreed. I’m relaxed about this defeat. Not so in midweek. That was poor. Our injuries don’t help but at least we are back in the mix now. Under Bulut we would have been truly sunk.Quote:

If I look back on the other, recent "temporary/interim" managers, they came in and delivered the same dirge as the previous manager, gaining important points by employing tactics that were just battling wars of attrition, especially against those teams in and around us at the time. At least with Riza, it can be argued, that we were in a worst position, but the wins were not dirge and were delivered in an entertaining way.
Can we really say that the last two defeats are down to Riza and the tactics? I look at it as if it is down to not having a decent front man. The first half proved this, there was no central focus. When Meite came on, we did improve because, although limited, he does have experience as a striker and he was a focal outlet in that second half... now just imagine if we had a decent striker in that role. I said to my Grandson today that Blackburn gave a perfect away performance... Got the lead, wasted time, got the crowd frustrated, and caught us on the counter attack, albeit with better finishing than we ever looked like achieving.
I wouldn't want to see the same old boring safe manager brought in just for the sake of playing turgid football to keep us in the Championship. As others in this thread have said, if we continue to play this way it will be unlikely that we will go down.
That being said, if there is no one else available, then I say keep with Riza for the foreseeable future. If things go Bulit shaped or there is a proper manager available, then review the situation, until then, I am currently happy as we are.
Thought we were poor first half today but much better second half, just clearly lacking a striker so that combined with a poor day for Daland and Ng cost us.
Would like to see us a bit more on the front foot in away games under him
P4 D2 L2 GF 2
Under him away from home at the moment
It's a yes for me. I think he's handled himself well on and off the pitch. His analysis is good, I have no doubts we would stay up this year and build for the long term in the right way.
No from me.
Mark Robins please.
No thanks.
I quite liked some of Riza's football but:
0. It's becoming apparent we shouldn't get carried away with wins over the relatively poor 'mouths and 'wall, and, somewhat fortuitously against Norwich.
1. I think he's showing he lacks in-game tactical nous.
2. I think we should have a leader who has the experience to turn the CCFC supertanker around over the LR so we recruit and nurture way more effectively.
I'm tempted by Robins who has both of 1 and 2.
Yes , definitely
He's got a good tune out of this squad
I think it's desperately clear that Robinson apart , the forward he has used are simply not up to this level
I don't see what a change of manager is going to bring .....apart from 🤔......we need a striker here
New manager rips things up , start again , more moaning if we lose a few after a good start
That simply isn't the answer
As soon as he can he's going to get a few new faces inQuote:

Hardly sounds like someone who’s confident of staying does he - something definitely seems to have changed in the last few days and I don’t just mean losing a couple of games.

I think he’s doing a reasonable job, given what he has to work withQuote:

Yesterday was telling that he only used one sub at half time, he’s basically saying this is what I have to work with
Would an experienced manager have taken Reindorf out of the U21 squad and had him available for Saturday???
What you can’t legislate for is someone like Dalaand coming in and looking so far off the pace when he’s looked so good previously
I’m probably in a minority of one, but am still hopeful of El Ghazi coming good in the second half of the season, but I thought he should have started on the bench yesterday
Blackburn weren’t a very good side, but they do have a decent manager who had worked out exactly how to play against us
It’s a results game and either we will just carry on and hopefully get to January in an okay position and make some proper signings upfront, or the board will get a new manager in and hope that’s all they have to do.
With our current squad being bereft of any real talent and depth up front, I don’t see how anyone else could have done any better under the current circumstances ?
One thing I will say in Rizas favour is at least it wasn’t boring to watch like the dross we endured under Bulut!
It’s small steps forward, but will it be enough for a rookie manager who is auditioning for the part every game???
It's another international break. If a permanent boss isn't in place after this one then the clowns in charge will have exceeded their normal level of incompetence.
Either appoint Riza or employ a new manager.
With Robins available I'd be going all out to get him.
I think Riza has done a decent job and believe he'd keep us up. I do wonder why Kanga keeps getting selected on the bench mind. If he's not trusted to come on yesterday with no fit strikers he's never coming on.
Good to read that Riza was unhappy with the performance yesterday
He's not really given the players any general hard criticism until now but they are sometimes going to deserve it
Encouraging however that he didn't single out players as there's enough of that going on through social media
So is that a yes or a no ?Quote:

Meanwhile, others cry ‘give him a contract’ despite there being only minimal evidence that he’s the right man for the job.Quote:

A nice 6 / 7 mile walk will do your mental health the world of good. Chuck on a podcast and try and learn something about the beautiful game because for all these years you claim to have watched Cardiff you literally have no clue about the game.
It's a no. We are a struggling Championship side in need of a major rebuild. I dont think Riza should be getting the job.Quote:

I think Riza will keep us up particularly if we can get some half decent players in January.

It's a temporary job. We keep looking for the best we can get. He's doing OK. We have a half-decent first team when all fit, but if Colwill, Robertson, or Robinson are out, we are a lot weaker.
We desperately need a Stiker and even Davies and Etete back will provide some cover.
What you know about football could be tattooed on an ant's ankle. You're completely and utterly clueless. Always have been, always will be. Nevertheless, you flood this board day after day with your tiresome nonsense.Quote:

If anyone thought Riza was the man for the job but no longer think so, what has happened in the last week to change your mind? Does two defeats now make him a worse manager? Were those defeats a sign of managerial incompetence or just one (or two) of this things? Why was he the man after successive wins against relegation candidates but now isn't? What is now concerning?
I'm sure that analogy made total sense to you right up to the moment you typed it.Quote:

Thanks TLG and Sludge i needed a laugh,
your put downs to each other class.
Spider arranging in your attic,stick to bothering fish feeble minded fool.:hehe:
Give him until January, see how we are then.
It’s more concerning who the clowns running the show would bring in, track record being about the worst in the championship probably.
Stick with Riza until end of the season, see how he does? Then make decision in the summer
I don't think the introduction of Rino and Siopis would have made a difference to the end result. Blackburn were canny and had done their homework. They knew if they closed down Colwill and Tanner, which they did, then we wouldn't look like scoring, as we had no recognised striker on the pitch. They came with a game plan and executed it perfectly.Quote:
