That why if Novak is out long term I think they will switch targets to a centre forward

 

Why would you even bother to do that? Some people are really maladjusted.

 

All I've ever expected is for us to act and run ourselves professionally, to work to a plan and show a degree of ambition. For our side to do the ugly and basic things well as a minimum. Its still early days but I couldn't have really asked for more over the last 6 weeks. Very promising start under Sparks tenure, so let's hope its the sign of things to come. I'm looking forward to our matches again!

 

What?! It's evidence based!

 

Good start elsewhere for one of our early favourites for the job, Jonathan Woodgate, won both his first 2 games as caretaker manager at Bournemouth including taking them to quarter finals of FA Cup for the first time in 64 years.

 

Really surprised as he didnt do very well at ‘boro. Wonder if its the players at his disposal.

 

Seen Paul Tisdale got sacked from Bristol Rovers. Thoughts?

 

Probably not

 

To be honest, I can't see it either but this is a strange business.

 

I sense a slight, but noticeable, change in sentiment following last Saturday's defeat. Suddenly there seems to be a little bit of doubt around the dynamic duo. I've seen a few posts since Saturday refer to the last three games and how those performances had dropped a gear.
Prior to Saturday, there certainly appeared to be more support in terms of nailing down T&S to a contract - and quick. Now, a few managers names have started to be thrown into the ring. Is the T&S love affair starting to wane?

 

They already have, Sparks said they weren’t looking for a new manager and they gave them the January window so it’s fairly self explanatory. Although I agree a statement that the job is theirs until the end do the season would be simple and sensible.

 

I've never had this love in with them. For me, the only way they get the job is if they do something stunning like get us in the top six. We should never have been where we were, its all down to stuarts formation and tactics.

I know Hurst has had a terrible start at grimbo, but he's got a shite squad. I think he would (over the course of the full season) get us in the top half, so things are being clouded by five very hard fought wins.

Don't get me wrong, the job they have done is amazing, but they haven't proved anything yet.

 

So if we had have appointed Hurst and he had failed to get us into top 6, by your reasoning we would sack him in the summer?

 

Why?

 

I agree about T&S but I wouldn't be looking for a new manager yet. If they get us in the top seven then I would offer them the job plus they THEY would be in a stronger bargaining position.
Every new appointment is shot in the dark, there are no guarantees in management candidates. There are no stand out candidates for the job out there for me.

 

Not what I said in the slightest

 

Kidda doesn't understand what his own words imply. Oh dear...
