We've been told that he's a great man-manager and motivator. Judging by the Stoke and Man. U. performances, that's more bollox from our board. | ![](/images/avatars/8665.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Why do you feel for him? He voluntarily came here. In fact he left his previous club in mid season turmoil to come here. He's being paid handsomely. He's been given an opportunity he has not earned. It turns out he's not good enough, just like every other club in the top five leagues in Europe managed to figure out before giving him the job. | ![](/images/avatars/10660.gif) |

He was meant to be the new golden boy of "English Soccer"...a beacon for all those American coaches waiting in the wings to come over and join the English Soccer League. Little did they think it would go tits up in such a short period of time. Unless a miracle is performed soon this will set their cause back many years. No way will he be sacked just yet. | ![](/images/avatars/10805.gif) |

And that is probably why he is still in a job. I can't see them having the humility to sack him, a far more sensible approach would be to bring in an experienced manager as a 'number two' or a 'director of football' and essentially let him do Bobs job for him. Bob can still take training sessions and press conferences, whatever it takes to create the impression he is the boss. He just shouldn't be allowed to manage us anymore. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

At what point does fear of loss of investment overrule fear of loss of face? I wonder if they're thinking like that already? It's an interesting one and I'd love to be a fly on the wall in their meetings. I've no idea what will happen but suspect they'll stick with him for now. They could well be looking at the run of games coming up after Spurs and using that as the real test of whether progress can be made. Or they may think he needs new players in January and not judge him til then. Who knows whats going on in their heads... | ![](/images/avatars/21105.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Yep LB. this I how I see it as well. The situation is very bad now. It is going to be terminal shortly if they don't act. They have a big job to do here making up for their cock ups and Huw's. I suggest they spend a bit more time in Costa del Abertawe to get to grips with the mess they have created. | ![](/images/avatars/8905.gif) |

Agreed, but I can't see them being regulars any time soon. They've not only left Huw in charge of undoing his own mess, they've sent some poor sod over here to learn from him. | ![](/images/avatars/21105.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Should we sack BOB no HOPE now? on 14:47 - Nov 11 with 4367 views | Glyn1 | Swansea - and British clubs generally, to be fair - used to have a reputation for patience - whatever happened to that?. You want to sack a manager after five matches - he hasn't even started yet. Bringing in Giggs, or Allardyce or De Boer or whoever just creates more upheaval that will lose us points. Any club that has three managers in a season probably deserves to be relegated. Just give him a quiet warning that the next time he loses a sequence of one game in a row then you want him fired. | ![](/images/avatars/10558.gif) |

Good suggestion, offers a way out of the dilemma for both Bob and the Yanks without losing too much face and gives us a fighting chance at survival. Chances of it happening? Probably very low unless someone can grab one of the Yanks by the throat and convince him 100% that this has to happen and quickly. Who's going to do that? | ![](/images/avatars/9767.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I don't WANT us to be the sort of club that sacks a manger after 5 matches. When he was appointed, I was prepared to give him and those that appointed him, a fair crack because I knew so little about him, it could turn out to be an inspired appointment or a complete and utter disaster or any of the possibilities in between those extremes. You can usually tell during the first match if the new manager has had a positive effect on the team. This didn't happen so the field of possibilities between inspired/disastrous, for me, narrowed to decent/disastrous but with each passing game, the possibilities narrowed - adequate/disastrous, poor/disastrous. Now it's just disastrous and it is thoroughly depressing. Why I bought a ticket for WBA away yesterday, I simply cannot fathom. Enough is enough, whether it's taken 5 matches or 5 seasons. | ![](/images/avatars/9767.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
