Poll thingy time....
Yes but initially a one year deal
Expectation levels need to be escaping relegation
Yes.
Even though we're still teetering on the edge, he's got the most out of this batch of players, compared to the other managers.
He's impressed you that much?Quote:

I’d suggest anyone who can rebuild with this squad and no signings would get a better job than ours.Quote:

Yes
What’s the alternative? Another coach with no management experience?
Give him a full season, a chance to reshape our squad and let’s see what he can do.
Before yesterday, I’d have definitely said yes, but after watching us play hoofball badly for ninety minutes in the closest thing I’ve seen this season to the bad, old days of McCarthy especially while also being a shambles tactically, I’m not so sure. On balance, I’d still say yes, but not with any great hope that things will be any better next season.
He completely messed up on Monday. HE didn't seem to know what he was doing and changed formations 4 times in the first half.
However, our three previous managers this season in Morison, Hudson and Whitehead couldn't get the players to perform consistently and therefore surely the problem is with the balance of the team and playing personnel.
Changing managers, even in the Summer, changes little.
The group needs to be added to with some leadership, character, fight and goals - all things we lack this season and things that can't be put right by constantly changing managers hoping that they wave a magic wand.
Let Lamouchi and Bamba get on with it and if we stay up let's see what they can do to address these issue - although their hands will be tied considerably.
Remember, it's not solely him where it comes to tactics.
He has a coaching staff that do all that background before games and report back to him. Therefore, it's likely they got it wrong.
Yes I would like to keep him

It could be anybody. Their methods up to now have no rhyme or reason.
Stick with him whether he keeps us up or not. A definite no to cheap backroom staff masquerading as a manager without a penny to spend.
Yes, I like him, think he’s had a tough job to take over from.
Although biggest concern would be Bamba taking over if not which I think would be a disaster.
I think he will leave if we stay up or not.
This squad isnt his fault. But yesterday was such an organisational shambles I have doubts whether hes what we need.
However with such a poor squad a transfer embargo Im sure he will leave even if we survive.
I can't believe people have turned on him after so few games.
Modern football right there.
He might have got it wrong but you don't know what the injury situations were etc. He's also been left with an absolute crock of a playing squad and was brought in so late in the transfer window he couldn't even bring in loans with no fee.
As some have mentioned he recognised there was an issue and tried to change it. We could have got Warnock if Tan hadn't have burnt his bridges and accused every manager who hasn't nailed every transfer of conning him.
If people showed this much energy towards the owner and board we wouldn't be in this mess.
Who we should be blaming are the board that saw fit to put an Under 23 coach in at the deep end and let him build a squad with the famous transfer committee.
The same people who backed up that monumental cock up by employing another wet behind the ears coach as manager.
Yet we're all here scratching our heads as to why we have arrived here and doing a Tan and throwing the only competent manager we've had this season under the bus.
I don't want to sound all Paul Ince but Pep wouldn't be able to get a tune out of half of these idiots.
Half of these lazy feckers haven't put a shift in for anybody but you suddenly expect them to start busting a gut for Lamouchi.
It wasn't Tan or the Board who were responsible for the left wing back fiasco yesterday.Quote:

How do the board keep making ridiculously bad decisions and we blame the man one step up from the playing staff? It is unbelievable how people blame the man at the bottom who basically won the lottery but should never have been in that position (Morison and then Hudson).
Now Lamouchi is taking pelters for the crap situation they have created. He is easily the best manager we've had this season. He is just working with an absolute $hit show of a squad assembled by the board pick of Morison and the transfer committee.
12 games he has had, with a squad he has added none of his own players to and were hardly pulling up trees before.
Is that what we have now turned into as a fanbase?
Rather than ask why Lamouchi hasn't turned this shower round in 12 games ask why we have ended up in this position. It has been a slow and steady decline and that should not be on Lamouchi. Sacking him today, tomorrow or next week does not fix that.
The problem with all of that is we've got a specialist in the position who did well enough for us last season who this manager is completely ignoring.Quote:

It is rotten from top to bottom. Just because people fail to see what is in front of them doesn't mean it is any less true.
Our knowledgable board have gambled and it has all gone to ****. That is where the blame should be directed, not the fella trying his best to rescue the circus they've created.
No but if he played Simpson from the start and we started the game the same he would have had just as much stick. He tried to get us on the front foot with a more attacking option in Ojo and it failed so he switched it up early-ish.Quote:
