He will turn this around in the summer.

I think the ‘he needs to deliver fast’ rhetoric is exactly the reason we’re 10th in the Championship.

mykeyb Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 We wanted Bruce out because he had no plan B. I have seen no suggestion that Smith is any better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blasterpocket68 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Not good enough , its very easy to over react and apply knee jerk reactions. But this is simply just not enough. I dont see any evidence this will improve when you cant even see the basics being applied. If the owners are serious about a complete rebuild they need to put the club in the hands of a proven manager. If this continues into next season we will continue to be a midtable championship has been! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I say deliver fast I am not talking about promotion but he needs to deliver results - 2 wins in 13 is totally unacceptable and the performances are dire in recent weeks too - if it continues much longer then serious questions should rightly be asked 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take solace in the belief that every single one of our players will be put up for sale in the summer. Barring Grealish and McGinn, I wouldn’t care one bit if every single other player f****** off. Never have I hated a squad as much as I do this one. Stick Hourihane at the top of that list. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might that be because we don’t have a plan B? Maybe because our squad is terrible? Do you think if we sacked Smith tomorrow, the next manager would have a ‘Plan B’?

DCJonah Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Since MON left, all we have done as a club is think about the next year. Short term plan after short term plan. And look where it has got us. And people want us to continue doing that? What is wrong with them 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
