Assume round will play the major role in any new managerial appointment but I'd imagine that xia and wyness will also play a big role in any decision to ditch rdm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommo_b Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Think new manager talk is pointless, we won't be getting one so just get behind the team instead of making them and the manager feel pressurised. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many times does this cycle need to happen before the fans actually stick with somebody. Laughable. I'd love to agree, and in many ways I do agree with the sentiment. However, in terms of performance I'd rate RDM on par with Sherwood so far. And there is little to suggest we're improving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodytom Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Gregg Evans doesn't half talk some bollocks. He needs more time and Progress is being made because tommy elphick says the application in training now to day 1 in pre season is chalk n cheese. Wow? That's great. How about you stop making stupid mistakes, scoring own goals and keep a clean sheet so we can win a football match rather than preaching about what the fans 'can't see' Please join Jonathan kodjia in getting the **** on with it!

That will kill off all this damaging speculation and leave manager, coaches, players and fans to knuckle down and make this work. The club has a new owner, new board, new manager, new assistant manager, new coach, new captain, nine new players and it is going to take time. I said in the Summer that it will take until Christmas for us to start moving through the gears. Until then, mistakes will be made and learning from those mistakes will happen. The last thing this club needs is the turmoil arising from yet another new manager and coaching team ! But he still hasn't learnt from previous mistakes. He keeps repeating them. I don't think there are too many owners who will 'guarantee RDM will be here for the next two seasons no matter what happens.' Certainly not a manager who has currently one win in ten after being handed over 50m to spend. What if Villa are relegated again for instance, perish the thought?

Dante_Lockhart Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 10 games into a massive squad overhaul following recent relegation after flirting with it for 4 seasons and people are calling for his head already. McGrath... Yes, it's a slow start. Yes, we should be winning these games... But come on guys. We need continuity, we need the team to gel and we need to stick together. Sacking ANOTHER manager and starting all again after 10 GAMES is pointless and stupid. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sacking ANOTHER manager and starting all again after 10 GAMES is pointless and stupid. To my mind its pointless postponing it. As WT said a couple of posts back - RDM previous of turning such runs around doesn't make promising reading. I think Xia should acknowledge he was blinded by CL win - get rid of RDM - and move on. Otherwise were tossing points away on the hope that the team just starts winning. I can't see anything to suggest that will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the same feeling when Sherwood was given the Tekkers money to rebuild, he had never bought a player in his brief managerial career, why would you entrust someone with no experience of the job in hand. With such a big job in store, you have to play a safe-ish hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie09 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 After 10 games we should be seeing progress, the reality is we're going backwards. I have no faith in RDM turning things around and hope that Dr T recognises and admits RDM isn't the man to take us forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up until brentford I felt we were playing well and unlucky - since then rdm has lost the plot and we have regressed as a team - a weak manager !
