For me the evidence will appear on the pitch in terms of the performances. In boxing terms....If you can't hurt your opponent, make sure he can't hurt you....otherwise you are beat. I think we tend to over complicate things at times....its a simple game, with simple things to get right....it only gets complicated when you don't do the simple things....paradoxical I know. The worry for me Richard, is draws are rarely in the middle.....you either have a tendency to be close to a win ( unlucky) or have a tendency to be close to losing (lucky)....It may not be long before we are doing one or the other.

People have said they don't rate him - that's fine - but what's it based on? A 6th place Bundesliga finish or have people actually witnessed what he does and thought "don't like the way he uses 5-4-1 so much to be honest" etc? I'm curious. I know nothing about RDM as a manager apart from where he's finished and I'm not writing him off after so few matches knowing so little about him. Just heard comments about Mourinho at Man U......basically saying that there has been 3 years of poor signings and that he has a rebuilding job to do. Souness, Neville & Carragher said he needs at least 12 months. Well we have had 6 years + of poor signings so makes you wonder RDM He was never my choice as new manager, however I was not opposed to it either.....I have no idea who the right manager is. However, I feel uncomfortable in changing him so soon.....He needs at least a season for me......and then it will be clearer what progress has been made or not. Unless results manifest themselves in a positive way, its the people at the club will be the only ones who can tell things are getting better, because we are not privvy to his day to day work at BMH.....you would then expect that good work to find its way on to the pitch on match day. N.B Whilst we have off the field distractions like we do.....that cannot be helpful to the "cause" for RDM Ps in terms of experience for the manager.....Chelsea-West Brom & Schalke must be a good learning curve for him.....I am hopeful.

Gary Thomas Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Well he needs a lot more than 8-10 games! Would like to think most supporters see that and are backing him 100% - I certainly am. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in the fullness of time, things will start to look up. Lord knows one thing this clubs needs is stability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa89 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 So 3-5-2 or 5-3-2 or whatever you want to call it today. Another bizarre move from RDM and another sign that he doesn't know what our best team is or what the best formation is for us to be successful. Worrying signs.

R.Bear Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Absolutely useless and a complete fraud. I'd be amazed if he ever works again. A chancer in every sense of the word. We all know he's going to be sacked, lets just **** do it now and stop messing around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lichfield Dean Posted September 24, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted September 24, 2016 I just cannot see why we should give him time. It is apparent that this is what we are and this is what we will remain under RDM. Giving him time will just result in us getting even worse. He should have been hauled up for an inquiry after the Luton game. Nothing I have seen so far this season (apart from maybe the Rotherham game) is remotely acceptable given the money spent. My only issue is I have literally no idea who we could replace him with, and that is the biggest problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
