Critchley Not Doing It Is He? 17:22 - Feb 11 with 27456 viewsNorthantsHoop

Wrong manager, this is not working, trouble is we lumbered ourselves with a 3 year contract and his coaching team.

even 2 years makes a lot more sense than 3 and a half. Just feels like a panic move because Beale walked away. Him going really shouldn't have been as big as deal as it has been

It's now left us in a hole that if it doesn't work out which is how it looks today they can't do anything about it which is crazy.


Or maybe, he's a continuity appointment, we were lucky he was available, and they wanted to tie him down.
The difference between beale's last few games as manager and critchley's is falling player confidence, beale's last 5 games were 4 defeats and a draw, 1 goal scored.

It's always a big risk though and more often of not you need to sack them which costs money, 3 and a half years seemed excessive to me for someone who isn't really proven

Yeh i agree with you to an extent , but if he was the cheaper option which is what ive read on here then its perfectly reasonable to question the motivation given we continually plead poverty.


I see your point but being cheaper than other managers wouldn't change the apparent continuity he offered. If the perfect option also happened to be the cheapest we shouldn't turn them down because they were cheap. That's not to say he has been the perfect appointment but he certainly seemed logical.

I dunno, I hope he turns the tide soon (as we all do) because he seems like a decent bloke and a lot of what's going on isn't his fault.

Yeh, I like him actually, and think he's got a very tricky job on his hands. I've got no idea what's going on behind the scenes so it's difficult to judge whos mainly at fault for our current situation but this team doesnt seem to be responding well to whatever things he's saying.
My view is the squad looks a mess and thats down to the people above Critchley.

doesn't mean you have to give in to it, we didn't with Warburton who had a rolliing year to year contract


That worked out really well for us, didn't it.

I said it at the time.

Warburton should have been our long term manager full time.

The guy was given a standing ovation and a rendition of "Warburton's blue and white army", at his last home game.

Three and half years to Critchley was and is mad. If it was done for continuity reasons that's mad, when they got rid of the bread man.

The club have done it to themselves.

But heads really do have to roll up above as we heading nowhere and fast !!!

Really liked Warburton as our manager, he gave the club and supporters respect and football was good. Never subscribed to all this not having a plan B rubbish, probably should have moved him up to DoF role and kept Eustace as head coach.

The irony is that the same people who were screaming for Warburton to go last season are the most vocal critics of Critchley. And the usual screaming mob on social media.

Granted, the team imploded under Warburton at the end of last season (bit of a habit with this team!) but had mitigating circumstances with injuries etc and were never in real danger of relegation during his reign as manager.

Can’t help but think that Ferdinand’s biggest failing as DOF was putting his personal feelings ahead of the club’s needs and not renewing Warburton’s contract. Maybe he was a useful scapegoat for Ferdinand but it’s proven to be a poor decision swapping stability and integrity under Warburton for the chaos under Beale and it could still prove disastrous.

"probably should have moved him up to DoF role and kept Eustace as head coach".

^This could have been a masterstroke (potentially as good as the McCullum/Stokes pairing in the cricket). We'll never know now.

Time for Ferdinand to move on. The club is in an absolute mess. This is heading towards a mess of Summer 2001 proportions (but hopefully minus the relegation). Ferdinand has overseen it, therefore it's his mess. I have no confidence in him to clean up the mess, so time for him to go.

Can't understand that comment, he's got a similar background to Beale, has a similar approach to setting up his team, similar philosophy, he even took Beales old job at villa. It seemed like a sensible continuity appointment, if it was cheap that's a bonus not the motivation.


Sorry but I'm not buying that. Beale and Critchley are like chalk and cheese. One has great communication and motivational skills, the other could send a jellyfish to sleep.

Beale had great communication skills my ar5e - he lied continuously and fu cked off leaving the team in a mess because most of the players he brought in are behaving like toddlers and don't want to play anymore
