T&S..... sacked

I agree with every word of this. T & S have done a wonderful job and at this stage of the season if we have to forsake attacking football to get the 3 points then so be it.

 

Fully agree here. But I think the reaction of a section supporters when there is a poor performance is a bi-product of the instability that @WilsdenBantam alludes to. I think as a set of fans we have become accustomed to change due to years of poor leadership. There is still raw emotion about where we are, the rapid nature of the fall and, even though I don't agree with most of it, you can understand that frustration.

T&S have overcome so many hurdles in a short space of time but maybe the fans are the trickiest hurdle of the lot because that trust still doesn't appear to be there yet. The murmurs of discontent that emerged following T&S' first winless run was evidence of that, despite it only being a four game run. And given the frustration on the back of Saturday's victory, if we don't win in such a key game tonight then I suspect we'll see it again. Thankfully I think we've got the right people at the club to deal with that at the moment who appreciate that there is a bigger picture and much more hard work to be done.

 

Bowyer was sacked because his god awful brand of football was unsustainable. Lots of posters called it on here quite early on and they were right. Win, lose or draw the feeling amongst the fan base was one of boredom and misery at going to games, shown by the dwindling attendances and lifeless atmosphere at VP. The decision to sack him was not due to 'the mob' or 'keyboard warriors' on social media moaning because we didn't win 5-0 every week. It was because an expensively assembled squad was being mismanaged in every way possible, our season was heading south and commercially, we were on track to lose a lot of season ticket holders.

He deserved to go.

 

At Christmas? He wasn’t sacked until the start of February.

 

Never heard Blackpool fans complain when he got them promoted nor will the Salford if he does it again at Salford which he is threatening to do. He inherited a terrible set of players and had one transfer window to put it right as have T&S but that won’t stop some people shouting loud if we don’t make it to the play offs which from where they started we have no right to be

 

Very well said, until there’s a sense of progress on and off the pitch the fan base will continue to go up and down. That’s on the powers that be to rectify nobody else.

 

After one poor month and the vitriol of the mob. The same will happen to these two managers if results decline, and as I stated earlier I hope Sparks keeps his nerve.

 

T&S look to be found out and have no answer, We need better

 

What’s shite??
You and your WUM posts??

 

How have we gone backwards??
We were in the bloody relegation zone!!
Give your head a shake,
Plus you only post when things go wrong, have some patience and give T&S some time

 

And so it begins.

 

The way in which impose ourselves - or don't - on games, is a worry. I worry about the mindset as much as whether T&S have the coaching ability. I first noticed it in the game against Bolton. We completely sat off until we went a goal behind and its as though that cautious mindset has never left us. Sparks talks about not accepting mediocrity - did anyone hear Canavans interview that played at half time on iFollow? The question was asked around whether the players felt a sense of pressure or expectancy around getting into the playoffs or was our late flirt with the top 7 just a bonus after our poor start. The answer was along the lines of 'if we do it, we do it, if we don't we don't but hopefully its a platform for next season'. I was so disappointed to hear that. Forget our shite start - promotion should be expected every season we're in this league. If we'd won tonight, we'd have gone a point outside the playoffs with 6 or 7 games left. We should be talking openly and bullishly about aiming for the playoffs and we should be demonstrating that in the way we start and approach games. I really worry that too many people at the club are giving themselves a free pass just because of where we were in December. The chance is there, bloody well go for it!!

 

Exactly as predicted

 

How we have gone backwards under them?, we were 22nd in the league when they took over, now we are 4 points from play offs

 

Never confuse @Rcbantam and facts. They just do not mix.

 

Maybe you should have waited until after tonight's game before typing that .
