    Would love to see Paul Cook here, doubt we could tempt him though. I believe 3 promotions on his managerial CV?

    It stinks to me of cutting budgets to me the squad assembled by Rahic and Bowyer was poor with bad signings. Not replacing Doyle or Vaughan with decent replacements.(cost cutting), says It all.
    This season has all the makings of we need to survive financially with little ambition of promotion. To get promotion we need a vast improvement from this squad - so far it is lacking.

    I don't think you can blame any of Wood, Cooke, Watt - what are they supposed to do when the players in front of them are changing every week and changing formation every match??

    Football is built on partnerships. It's so much easier when you're playing with the same players in a settled formation rather than having to go into different parts of the pitch or be looking for team mates because where they are this match is different to the last match.

    It's almost unfair on the players to keep changing the formation every match. Decisions on the pitch need to be taken quickly and you can't do that if you don't know where your team mates are or even who your team mates are!!

    I couldn’t justify a 3 mile round trip up and down Kings road let alone 150 miles

    Stuart needs to take a long hard look at his own performance again. No need for four changes today, just the one because of the injury to Hossanah was required. Changes it again at half time. He really is a tinkerman and what do they do in training, the defending at set pieces is a shambles and crossing practice must be non existant, any centre forward playing for us would be despondant watching the ball being cut out by the first defender or sail over his head and out the other side, or too close to the keeper. 60+% possesion of huff and puff , shooting my grannie could save and she has been dead over 20 years.
    I am always willing to give people a chance ,but in my opinion Stuart is again proving that he is not up to the job.
    I am not a happy man tonight. Defeat on tuesday and his days are numbered.

    If we win our game in hand we'll still be in the play offs right Park? No need for panic!

    I never wanted him back either. It was pure sentiment on Rhodes part, and trying to get fans back on side
    His 3rd spell here as manager is shaping up to be even far worse than his 1st spell here. I have no faith whatsoever that he will turn this around. A big week ahead for him with games against 2 teams below us. Anything less than 3 points and he could be in bother, as early as the season is

    I certainly did not want Stuart back, but i dont think anyone could have got that pile of crap moving in the right direction last january. He was the easy choice at the time , but that is Rhodes all over. We really do need a root and branch at this club.
