  1. Check out the last sentence in that article. Just remember if results improve it is down to the tireless work of RDM.
  2. I think the `promotion' - `safe mid-table' discussion is probably futile. I think that any manager coming in is bound to aim for promotion, not safe mid-table. If he were to aim for the latter he will be doomed to fail.
  3. I suspect that Xia will go for the Wagner type of manager, or a `name'. I really do not think that Bruce and that type of manager will be Xia's choice, though he may well have someone like that chosen for him by Wyness and Round.
  4. And petrol. You filled your tank for ten bob (50p).
  5. No. Seriously? They do some really odd things in the Championship.
  6. Laursen will be very lucky if he ever gets the opportunity to manage Aston Villa.
  7. Did you not see the Newcastle match? Clark was so much better than our defenders.
  8. You would think our management team, especially Round, would have been planning for this. It is not exactly a surprise, and has been ongoing for a large number of games.
  9. Spent a lot of money unwisely at Sunderland, too, with little result.
  10. I still think that the right manager should be able to organise the team better to improve things. Admittedly the defence is just about ok for this level and the midfield, with the exception of Tshibola, is truly horrendous, but having a system and the players knowing what they are supposed to be doing as part of that system would be a big positive.
  11. Yes. I had forgotten about this. As you say, hopefully this time he takes advice.
  12. I was lukewarm about RDM from the start, but happy to give him a chance. I will be happy to see him go, he is not up to the job, but I am also worried about who will be appointed in his place. Hopefully Xia will be getting sound advice from the right people.
  13. On the bright side. This is just what we need to push RDM out the door.
  14. Yeah. I bit too. Difficult not to.
  15. Kozak is useless. Gardner is very poor. Sellars in lieu of Kodjia or Ayew?
  16. I like that team. And I think Lyden has played RB before.
  17. I agree that those 3 are very poor. They are, however at least, bodies in the middle, adding some sort of strength, though limited. And Grealish has been totally ineffective and McCormick has been injured.
  18. You cannot do anything about that - just wait for strikers to hit form. The midfield, on the other hand, you can certainly do something to improve.
  19. Why are so many posters going for 2 midfielders. That has been largely responsible for our poor results.
