Lt. Aldo Raine Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 I'm not in the Evatt out camp, but I am concerned. Our defensive record over the course of the season to date is the league's second worst, as is our run of form over the last ten matches. We've won one in nine and have an inexperienced manager at the helm. Our performances lately have been better than they were earlier in the season and I'm hopeful that it will turn, but it does have to pretty quickly.

He was absolutely tremendous against city tonight, blocking shots with any part of his body including a blasted shot with his head off the line. He did play well yes, but its a different game playing an attack v defence game than a routine league 2 game where you dont have a backs to the wall mentality. If he was that good, how did Doyle get so many headed chances in the 1st half last week, the most he's had in one half all season? And in the 2nd half of both games v Cheltenham we hardly created anything yet still managed 2 simple late goals, if those goals had been against us we'd be wondering where the central defender was.

CJG Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Look at previous 9 games from December and January: For the 7 times we've fell behind 3 times we've equalised, but lost 4 times & won 0. Only twice have we took the lead lost 1 & won 1. Astonishingly at no point have we been winning a game for previous 540 minutes since Cheltenham.

My point is to remove the current incumbemt. If FV them fuck up their third appoppointment, then the debate moves on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyrotten Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 3 hours ago, Horwich said: Anyone who thinks the mess of BWFC can be turned around in one transfer window, shouldn't be allowed to attend football matches. I dont think he will have it right by the start of next season, but we will be better than this season. He needs time and then he is judged "Getting it right" isn't black and white though, its not all or nothing. If we were 5th or 6th and lost at Tranmere, there would still be lots of fans saying he's not the man for the job. Top of the league is getting it right, bottom 2 is getting it wrong I think everyone would agree. Everywhere in between is open to debate. So it depends what level you think is acceptable, would you take winning 1 of the next 9? At what point is his performance questioned if there's no judgement till he's been here 18 months?

Traf Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 2 wins. That's how far away we are from not having to have this discussion. It's not perfect, of course, but the players making silly mistakes are why we're where we are. Has IE picked the right players/team/formations? Probably not. Should the players picked have done a better job? Definitely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Horwich Posted January 24, 2021 Moderators Share Posted January 24, 2021 You can’t just sack a manager after a bad run, especially if you dont have the balls to give any alternative. Should OGS have been sacked? Should Arteta have been sacked? Should Lampard have been sacked? Should Parker have been sacked? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barrow and Bradford can get as many points as they like this week. Its a shame I'm just relying on others for our next 2 games, any points we get are a bonus.

Ruba Mustafa Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 (edited) In. of course he should be allowed to continue building a team. i can see, so it’s obvious that he can, that we have several players from yesterday’s team that are not up to the job. He has to work with them until they can be moved on n replaced. Thats why he is saying the same thing after every game, I don’t know what else he can say, unless u want bs. Kiosk loss was a setback too. we got two good uns in Lee John who can help fill that gap. That still leaves a couple of places in the team that need improving, im sure he has identified who we need but getting them here is another problem, it takes time. Plus we are skint. So, to repeat, he needs more time,,,,, how long? Well at least one more window after this one, so if no improvement by this time next year then I’d say it’s time to go. In IE, weve got a raw talent here, we need to nurture him n tolerate some mistakes coz I think he will get it right soon, he just needs more time.
