Not a bad start he is having there, P6 W3 D3 L0 F8 A3 PTS 12 Same amount of points in 6 games as we have managed in the previous 12 He hasn't got the messiah grealish either and he seems to be coping Not sure if you've got a poor memory or just being talking bollocks on purpose. Smith said, 'We knew we weren't going to be able to outplay Brentford, but I know they have their weaknesses and we tried to exploit them. If we took our chances we would've won the game."

Yeah but our squad is tripe. Birmingham mights as well be Man City. Dean Smith is so unfortunate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm ready for the rebuild next season and am confident we'll start in August a much better and more balanced side. Really hope you are right mate.? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screwdriver Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Massive boost getting Jack fit again. However Deano "inferiority complex" Smith will obviously leave him on the bench just to prove he's the boss. especially after the chelsea subs shenannigans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to their cup games they didn't play many league games in Jan but they were not exactly spectacular when they did Bham Drew 1-1 Luton 0-0 before winning replay 1-0 Hull Lost 3-0 Wigan Won 1-0 Chelsea - lost 3-0 Edited February 26, 2019 by LakotaDakota Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 What's smith's 2019 record I hear you ask? W 1 D 5 L 3 And that win was against the worst team in the league at home. But yeah he is doing a good job 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point is people seem to be very quick to judge managers after a handful of games. Think we went unbeaten in Bruce’s first 8 games. Didn’t quite work out for him or us in the long run, did it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say that yet as I think he should get until end of season. But he hasn't been a good appointment so far in my opinion as proven above. That's excluding the humiliating three nil loss at home to swansea as well. If you include that it's one win in ten. Dreadful form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if this is what you were getting at, but I don't think that thinking the manager isn't doing a good job and wanting him gone go hand in hand. I think he's doing a shit job at this very moment. I think he's failing to get anywhere near the best out of the team. But I certainly don't want him gone. I just want him to improve things, but think he will long term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreadful form. I didn’t say you wanted him gone, I asked you if you wanted him gone. I’m trying to ascertain what your post was getting at. That we’re in poor form?

So we are all agreed he is under achieving? As there are various posters who say they are happy with what Smith has done but I don't see how anyone can be happy with this? He is under performing badly. If this form continues until the end of season I don't want him here next season. I don't want to take a gamble hoping he will get better. If the form improves then I'll happily give him the summer. But the most alarming thing for me is how is unable to get ghe best out of what he has. Listening to elphicks interview really is alarming as it seems there are problems in the dressing room 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably give this impression that I am anti Smith but I am not j wnat him to succeed but I am worried he can't handle the pressure here. Its a different animal to brentford. Last thing we need is to gamble give him the little money we have to bring in players and then we have to sack him mid season again and then have this whole scenerio again. For me there has to be improvement form now until end of season otherwise we will have to look at a change. If that were to happen jokanovic is the man I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
