Deserves its own thread...

Just read the latest bit of waffle. Sounds like he’s trying to talk himself out of a job.

‘He’s probably a victim of his own  success from the start if the season’ .

Fuck me, if thats success we are all doomed !! Can the bar be set so low????

The bar couldn't be lower this season if we are being realistic, with the -12 points and our first 6 games being write-offs.

Think everyone was relatively satisfied with Keith's work up to and including the MK Dons home win in November. A lot of League One clubs and fans seemed to be shitting it that we'd stay up. Being realistic started to turn into hope.

The next game when we lost 7-1 to Accrington though, everything started to crumble after that and maybe Keith wouldn't be under such scrutiny if he hadn't had the decent start that he did. Maybe I'm wrong though and people would've been even more pissed off had we not mustered a bit of hope.

Given the squad he had the start was reasonable. Nothing "exceptional". But then drop off was shockingly poor and alarming. And given the team he's got now results are miles off where they should be. 

Positioning it as "victim of his own success" is ludicrous when he's won 5 out of 26 or whatever it is. 

There’s been no success in any way shape or form. 

Only thing he’s victim of is not being able to keep his daft mouth shut.

This.

Regardless of the difficult circumstances, I think given our performances and the standard of some defeats, it’s fair to say KH can consider himself very lucky that he’s still in the job.

“It has always been a long-term plan but there seems to be a short-term debate,” he said yesterday.

“I think that’s pretty unfair. I don’t remember any debates last season, except around Ken Anderson.

Plenty of people suggested Parky should be sacked.

He doesn’t remember those

This to me epitomises Hill's lunacy, we know that some of the players are shit, but they don't need it ramming down their throats by their manager.

“It isn’t going to get any easier in the remaining 12 games but I have got a dressing room full of fighters. Sometimes we are not good enough but I don’t think you should criticise people for not being good enough.

In a roundabout way is that not criticising?

KH is a loose cannon  with his comments, he's either upsetting the players or the fans.

He needs to learn that less is more.

Found this on Rochdale fans site, sounds familiar ???

Yes he needs to learn when to shut the f*ck up. And judging by his constant inane ramblings that should be pretty much all of the time.

I'm convinced some of our player turn over, loanees not coming back, Darcy apparently stalling on a contract, for example are as a result of his behaviour.

Yes money is a factor, but it's not going to last forever (embargo).

He strikes me as a bully 

if you don’t buy into his bullshit on the training ground your out of favour, bet the young kids are scared shitless of him

He's had a free hit this season.

All he needed to do was be able to say 'if I'd had those 12 points I'd have kept us up'.

He's fucking that up spectacularly.

Those stats are quite worrying... he's never actually done a good job anywhere!

End of season, can him off, and take pick of those that are available (as more will be then than in March) - plus who wants to come in now and have a relegation on their CV?

A bit conspiracy theory like but I've started wondering if KH has been basically mugged off from day 1 and win/lose/draw he was always only going to be here for a year.

That was my hope for the season when we had that run prior to accy away that he would get us to 12 points off staying up and I could have that as a success.

Even say 15/16 points off where he could say "missed first 6 games". But regardless the form we've had would have sent us down without any points off.
