They’ve made the same mistake they made with LF. They’ve appointed someone entirely unqualified for the job who’s now learning on the job, again. It’s mind numbingly dumb.
Just like any other organisation, this is all about recruitment. Appointing Nourry is like having an architect draw up the plans for your house and then appointing him to actually physically build the thing himself. Nothing wrong with the plans, but stupid beyond belief to expect him to be able to build it. Anyone with half a brain cell gets a builder in.
We’ve one owner born into money, one married into it. Nice guys, benevolent, but the absolute epitome of “more money than sense”. |

Amazing he’s hoodwinked another club.
Got lucky here, following Warburton’s three years’ work, destroyed it, moved to a massive club that had reached a European final, fvcked it up, now he’s going in to leach off Mowbray’s work. He’s a parasite.
With his luck he’ll fluke a promotion before he gets found out again. |

Cold December night ooop north, away win, clean sheet. Second win in three days, on the old run-rate that would have taken three years.
Nice to see half a dozen teams above us back within touching distance. |

No goals in this team apparently 
No goals in Ainsworth’s team, but that’s because we only ever had two shots on target, at best, per game. 19 shots tonight, 9 on target, and 4 goals. Who’d have thought putting a team out to try and score goals might result in some goals being scored? Genius.
Long way to go, that was laboured and nervy, we had the rub of the green, tried to throw it away anyway, but we’d have lost that under Ainsworth. The team Cifuentes inherited was on the floor the way it had been set up, the results, and constantly being told everyone was better than us and we were lucky to be playing in the same division as everyone else. We’ve gone from an absolute abomination to a win, two draws and a single defeat in Marti’s first four games. That’s pretty solid and given the mess he inherited shouldn’t be underestimated. |

Compared to the performance against the same opposition under Ainsworth, in the dead rubber last season, and what Liam Manning’s League 1 side did to us in pre-season, there’s no denying things are looking much better.
MC will soon get tired of Dykes unless he starts scoring or starts creating opportunities for others, and he’ll drop him and create a system that allows others to score.
We have to make up 6 points over 30 games to avoid the drop. I fancy us more than Sheff Weds, Rotherham, Huddersfield, and Birmingham are dropping like a stone.
We were dead and buried under Ainsworth, I think we’ve got a real chance now. |

There's little doubt there’s an attitude issue there, but it’s also very obvious there’s a very good player in there as well. I suspect if he’s in an environment where the latter is allowed to flourish, the former, whilst still there, may be less likely to come to the surface quite so regularly. At the end of the day, we need all the help we can get. We can’t afford to sideline good players if we can avoid it. Let’s hope MC can get something out of him |

Name-checked by the manager. Dozzell is going to look even more stupid for that moment of petulance if the player who replaced him in the side for the new manager’s first game plays too well to be dropped. |

Breath of fresh air. Hopefully, within a week or two, the last 9 months will just feel like a very weird dream. |

Stopped the rot, that will give them confidence. Played some actual football, kept the ball on the floor. Full week on the training ground, then the International break. Things look far more positive. |

In one sense I’m dreading this because it’s been a relief to feel some optimism this week, and there’s potential to have that balloon popped. That being said, I think the players have become so disillusioned with Ainsworth, him being gone will give them a massive lift. I don’t subscribe to the theory we don’t have the players to go back to Warbsball. So, for once, I think we’ll get a bit of new manager bounce and win. 0-2. |

Selling the the clause is a win-win for Palace and a lose-lose for QPR though. They’ll only agree to buy us out if they’re confident he’ll sign a new contract, so we’d be better off not selling. If they think he’s going to leave on a free, they’re not going to buy us out of the clause.
The only way I can see us selling the clause is if Palace know he’s going to sign a new contract and we’re absolutely desperate. Palace will know that and we’ll end up with buttons. |

Agree on Aoraha. He seems to be one of the Development Squad who seems to have been overlooked somewhat, but was never going to get a look-in under Ainsworth. Wouldn’t be at all surprised to see him more involved. |

When he talks about knowing there’s quality in the squad to implement his playing style, I’m sure that he’s looked at some of the games under Warburton and Beale where Chair and Willock have played teams off the park and is going to use that as his nucleus. I’m expecting those two, assuming they’re fit, to be the first names on the team sheet, if Richards can behave he’ll be far more involved. |
