    Any manager would be a start.

    Agree completely.

    I was prepared to give him a chance, but he and the entire management/coaching structure are clearly inadequate at this level.

    Very worrying times.

    Things is Edin appointed him on the basis of being on the same wavelength or whatever. He’s so much Edin’s man it’s going to difficult for Edin to fire him without losing face.

    Let's hope Collins has learnt something else from the game. At this rate he might have learnt enough to win our last game of the season. What a sack of shit at the moment you can't win a game by changing formation four or five times a game.

    Honestly not expecting Collins to get sacked, possibly an ego too big to admit he made a bad decision. However, I think Collins might choose to walk if he can't turn it around.

    In one game, I've seen enough. Collins needs sacking along with Abbott.

    What a choice, relegation or embarrassment.

    Get him sacked. Not his fault but he's out of his depth.

    Edin needs to swallow his pride and hire a proper manager and give him a proper run with a good squad

    You can’t keep on giving them more games, at first it was 10 and now 11-12. Look at how hard it was to get out of the bad run after Christmas, we could be in serious trouble after 12 games.

    It’s a better squad to take over than they would have inherited 5 weeks ago or so.

    Who knows. Can’t see Collins going anyway

    You can tell just from listening to Collins when he is being interviewed that he is a man with lots and lots of ideas going round in his head. I have no doubt that some of those ideas are very good ideas, but somebody needs to tell him that he doesn't need to try and implement all of them in each and every game.

    totally agree. He seems to be trying to come up with a master tactical switch about 4 times every game. None have worked.

    The substitutions and formation changes only confirm that he messed up the preparation.

    If we gather anything less than 3 points in the next two games then Collins might be gone

    It’s very concerning that we were completely outplayed by Southend and Barnsley, who had 25+ shots on goal to our 5/6.
