....if you were Tony F has surely to be pulling HR in and giving him his marching orders. Don't like the Premiershite and won't go and watch any games while we're in it so not bothered by relegation personally (although don't like to see Rangers lose any matches of course), but surely Tony F and his pals must be worried again now? Redknapp fluked us back up, and now 'organises' the dross we have produced so far this season. He's as shot as a manager as Rio is a defender. [Post edited 27 Sep 2014 16:45]

gotta admit he just doesn't inspire me
even if we finished season by staying up I don't think I could be happy watching us the way we are playing
BUT WHO DO YOU BRING IN? |  |

Many of the fans wouldn't be too happy I guess, but if I was Tony F I'd be getting Pulis in to save my investment.
Having said, every decision Tony F makes seems to go t!ts......is he cursed?. [Post edited 27 Sep 2014 17:01]

lets not kid ourselves with niko's fee kick at the end, they had one on ones with green a number of times and they hit the wood work once/twice/three times ??.
our defence is woeful and gets cut open time and time again.
were simply not good enough at this level.
but then i look at warnock at palace and think harold is a man out of time in the premeirship 2014.
phillips has gone backwards and looks like a poor mans puncheon.
there isnt one person on this message board who can defend 'rio's' inclusion over ned.
im off to watch the ryder cup as i'll only end up having a ruck with pro harold posters.

Warnock has still got that little bit of fire in his belly. Harold's was extinguished when he was overlooked for England and then got his P45 from Spurs . |  |

Took my youngest to watch Carmarthen Town this afternoon. £10 with a programme; chips, tea and a soft drink for a couple of quid more. A good game of football and Carmarthen won 3-1.
The afternoon went sour of course when, upon arriving in a cafe afterwards they had Final Score on. I walked through the doors on 66 minutes (2.30 ko in WPL see) and we equalised.......... by the time I'd gone to the gents and come back for my coffee we were behind again.
Tell me though, were we any better this afternoon? Any better at all? I suppose we must have been given that the scoreline doesn't suggest a demolition........... or did Green have a great game? |  |

Won't be going anywhere anytime soon, and as much as I don't want him here, I'd put myself amongst those who say he should probably get the season.
Makes me a bit depressed to admit though that we would be a hundred times better under Pulis.  | | | |

Why give him the season though? I don't really understand that. We've been shocking the whole time he's been in charge. We've got Hoddle on the staff who would probably make a much better job of managing............... I'd kick Harry upstairs if he doesn't want to go altogether. | |

This isn't about Harry, this is about a football strategy at the club.
Of which we have none.
The cult of personality is part of our problem. TF and fellow board members are ultimately responsible and we should be asking questions of them rather than singing their names. |  |

Why dont we come alive until we are a goal down? Why not from the OFF ffs? There's no shame in losing the good fight, but where is the fight?
Yes we've got injuries and not had the rub of the green, I really dont think Harry is not the man anymore and wtf we are paying Hoddle for I dont know. And the shrink? There's more on the high end of the payroll than tea ladies. In fact, field some tea ladys. |  | | |

Would rather see Arrys reputation go down the drain with us, same as Hughes' should've.
Still no relegation on Hughes' CV...
Equally don't fancy paying HR even more millions to leave. [Post edited 27 Sep 2014 17:44]

I can't really comment as didn't go today but Southampton are the form team and to lose by 1 goal, which apparently was a goal of the season contender can't be too bad.
Secondly who do you bring in?
Don't say Hoddle as he is here already |  | | |

10 games is when he should be judged. We are now 7 in, looking awful and relegation favourites. Not sure about pulled though. Id rather McLaren. At least he would build the future. |  |

If I was McLaren I wouldn't leave Derby for us, would you? | |

youre not allowed to say that on this site for fear of being branded a traitor to the cause.We are all supposed to turn up home and away every week watching the same ol shite and not complain.EVer heard of the emperors new clothes,well there are people on this site who actually believe all the shite they read. | | | |

We were better than our first two away matches (but that's a bar set high as a blade of grass on the eighteenth green.) Green made some excellent saves in the first half, that – and Mané's inability to stay onside – flattered us.
Second half was better. Austin's goal was brilliant, as was it's build up. Krancjar almost repeated last week's heroics – but not quite. However we were always one breakaway from disaster.
The defence is a mess, and we've now four starting midfielders injured. Ferdinand is a blind man trying to find his way in a dust-storm, and suddenly Karl Henry is one of our a key players.
There aren't many reasons for optimism. But – on the "Devil You Know" principle – I still think firing Redknapp now would be a mistake. In spite of what each of us may believe, there's no guarantee anyone else would do any better. Our next manager simply can't be another panic hiring, like the last two. It has to a carefully considered appointment, with the long-term growth of the club as its primary goal. Unfortunately though Tony Fernandes the businessman seems to understand that, Little Tone the Fan gets the better of him in the debate. | | | |

I agree with you on that. It was a tragedy for us when he went off to Derby I thought. He'd have made an ideal successor for Harry at the end of last season. | |

Well, we do have a sort of "solution" we could try without losing too much face and credibility don't we? Hoddle could take over day to day running of the team immediately. I'm not saying that I know if he'd be a miracle worker, but I strongly suspect that he'd be better.
ALSO............ there may be too many voices at the moment and having a change over to Hoddle might be just what we need to kick on and rescue the situation before it gets beyond our reasonable reach. | |

We need someone who can deal with our lazy players and keep us up and that's Pulis. It's easy to motivate young players, Steve won't have what it takes, he is too much of a pussy.
Pulis is a Premier League version of Warnock. | | | |

If TF isn't doing a search right now – actually it should have been going on since the summer, at least – for a Director of Football Operations then he truly is deluded. The right person could be hired now, stay in the background until 'Arry's contract expires, learn about the club, it's players, supporters etc. so they'd be ready to begin building next Summer, irrespective of which division we'll be in.
This should have happened when Fernandes took over, it didn't. It should have happened when it was obvious Hughes had lost the plot, it didn't. It should have happened this past Summer, it didn't. If it doesn't happen now, then we'll continue blundering around until our chairman listens to his head rather than his heart, or sells up and moves on. | | | |
