    I felt the squad was good enough to seriously challenge for promotion on paper, hindsight and the evidence of games has shown me that was wrong to view that early on in the season. The squad are better than they are currently showing under smith but it really is a mess. Lots of old players on massive contracts, defence a shambles and relying on a loan striker to score goals. The decisions Bruce made and his failure to gain promotion has caused issues that will take time to fix.
  2. DCJonah
    The defence is a huge mess though. I believe only rotherham have conceded more. That's a massive hurdle for the rest of the squad to overcome.
  3. DCJonah
    He was massively underperforming, built nothing that resembled a plan, played a large role in the summer financial issues and deserved to be sacked.
  4. DCJonah
    There is probably an argument for it. He certainly didn't leave much of a foundation to build from, given the money he spent and the amount of players signed.
  5. DCJonah
    Just can't see us being consistent enough to close the gap
  6. DCJonah
    No way is he better than gary gardner

    Probably not top 2 but it was underperforming. It still is. It's also seriously weak in certain areas, has massive wages being spent on players either sitting on the bench, the stands or playing poorly and will need massive work in the summer due to expiring contracts and loans. Bruce left a **** mess. A mess with some talent in areas but an absolute mess.
  8. DCJonah
    Maybe. Happy to give him that chance though
  9. DCJonah
    You don't. So why don't we let him do that
  10. DCJonah
    No, time to build something for the first time in 10 years and not just try and cut costs or throw money on quick fix gambles.
  11. DCJonah
    Needs time and thankfully will be given it.
  12. DCJonah
    Nothing like giving him a chance. We need a different approach. The short term quick fixes did not work. It has made us worse. Fixing it is going to take time.
  13. DCJonah
    Clearly not good enough but lets not pretend he has strong options that he refuses to play
  14. DCJonah
    Who assembled this squad? Who failed to coach or create any system? Who is the reason we have average or shit players on huge undeserved wages?
  15. DCJonah
    How about we let him get his own players.
  16. DCJonah
    My concern with bruce was the long term damage he would cause. Its becoming obvious now.
  17. DCJonah
    We need to build something. I'm all for it. Nothing we have done since MON left has worked. It's just made more of a mess.
  18. DCJonah
    Clearly has talent but just not sure he is ready.
  19. DCJonah
    I have never understood the stick this guy gets, especially when you compare attitudes towards other players. Amazing really.
  20. DCJonah
    Should never play again. Hutton is poor but is a better option until we sign a lb
  21. DCJonah
    What's interesting about them?

    From what i remember cahil wanted games after a very successful loan spell, at the time we were finishing 6th and giving the top 4 a serious challenge. He wasn't ready to start consistently in a team like that, hence his drop down to bolton. Albrighton was really poor in a period where everyone was poor under lambert and i believe wanted large wages or was offered money by leicester that he didn't warrant as we cut costs under lerner. As OBE said, it worked well for both of them, we just **** ourselves up during both periods.
  23. DCJonah
    His role had little to do with how weak he looked. He was like a little boy playing against men. He wasn't and isn't good enough for first team football at the moment.
  24. DCJonah
    I would love some of those players to be involved but if they aren't good enough i won't criticise smith for it. There were some idiots who booed his decision to sub o'hare. That's just ridiculous.
  25. DCJonah
    Unfortunately both players were not at the required standard for what we wanted to do as they broke through and wanted first team football. Both dropped down, gained experienced and took over where our club was. I'm not sure we handled them that badly.
