    onya Jose.


    "What I'm thinking is to use the good feelings and the good moments and what I think is effective and can help the team asheave something different because if we do things in the same way probably we will asheave the same result and the results until today weren't good so we need to change something. This is what I have to do."


    (genuinely impressed with this )

    He's got to change the number of points we get from a game , in our position that's the only thing that matters Mick .

    Speaking as a perceived happy clapper its going to take a lot more than bland platitudes to fill me with confidence. There's very little in Morais' cv that screams good manager. Being at big clubs and working with big players didn't make Gary Neville a top manager.
    I'm not saying he won't be a success but it's going to take performances on the pitch to convince me rather than having the nous to say the blindingly obvious things fans want to hear.

    Sounds out of his depth to me.

    Heard him on talksport yesterday and yes he can speak English but he sounds like a comedian pretending to be a foreign football coach. Hope to god I’m proved wrong but I don’t think whatever he’s trying to get across to players will happen in time to save us this season.

    Got to admit, I've been less than impressed by his interviews. Don't think it has anything to do with his level of English, more with what he's actually saying. Hope he's doing more than just asking players to "believe".

    It’s no wonder our players and managers f*ck off first chance they get when this is how our twatty fans talk about them after being at the club a week.

    Good grief. In the job a week and already being written off. Nowt like giving the bloke a chance to show what he can do and this is nowt like giving the bloke a chance.
    I haven't the foggiest idea whether Jose will be any good, or not, at the job. But I'll give him more than seven days to show it. What's the alternative? Get on his back straight away? Sack him and appoint someone else? If we do that, how long are we prepared to give the next bloke? Five days? Three? One?

    Not writing him off. Just saying that I feel the messages he’s trying to get into the players might be more difficult and take time than is ideal. Fingers crossed we get a result tomorrow. Nothing less than a win is good enough now considering our recent form.

    I think he's got an extremely tough gig here to be fair. We've been burnt by "one of our own", our former owner has passed and we're under foreign ownership, and the civility that was shown to a set up with Barnsley manager, owner and captain now feel long gone.

    He's working with a big squad of players that are really struggling with form, confidence and/or quality and he's got a short time to make something happen to save us from the drop.

    I really hope he does because i fear if he doesn't, toxic won't come close to describing what may then unfold.

    Under said "special one" he was an analyst.. so he"s doing what he"s use to. Can he transfer, by coaching, what is in his head, or on a bit of paper..is the question
    While he's been coaching, his record, does not stand out and is at least up for debate...

    He's Portuguese and we can at least understand what he's saying, plus
    if his tenure is fairly long term, he can only improve his vocabulary.
    Another thing that might be affecting his learning, is that he had a life threatening
    brain aneurism. Please give the lad a break.

    Like I stated previously, nothing to do with his language skills for me. Just think he talks a lot of rubbish in interviews. Most managers do. Believe.

    I think that his limited English vocabulary limits what he can say so it does sound as though he's being
    repetitive. At least he's better than Flores (Watford) and Pochettino ( Southampton) who after being
    first appointed, used a Spanish interpreter to conduct press conferences, post match TV interviews
    and convey what they wanted to see happen on the pitch to their players.
    As I said previously, I hope Jose stays with us and his grasp of English improves.

    Whoa a minute!
    I'm not writing him off! I have a go at others for writing players off after a couple of months. I'm not going to do the exact opposite. Neither am I going to declare the second coming because he's said a few things in his interviews that any new guy with half a brain in his head would say.
    He's been one of a group of assistants at some very big clubs. I hope that's going to translate into being a good manager. What he's done as a number one in the past is a long way off proving he can. Neither does it prove he cant.
    I'm sitting on the fence. There's a demonstrated trend among fans to go from best thing since sliced bread to rubbish and judas in the blink of an eye.
    For now I'll keep my fingers crossed, give him my best wishes and see how it goes.

    Please tell me what you would like to hear him say in interviews ? I cannot believe even in BFC terms how quickly people are to jump on his case for any reason , why not give the bloke a chance & hold off judgement until at least the end of the season. I bet any of the critics would expect more than a week in a new job before being judged.

    I don't think anyone's criticising him mate. I won't be judging him until at least the end of the season. If we go down but do it with a fight and some encouraging signs I'm happy for us to carry on with him.

    Time will tell. It wasn't a great start playing the same players and formation that put our previous head coach on such a poor run. At least he changed it for the second half, but if Gardner and Williams both start tomorrow that will be another without a win.

    I have to say I was encouraged by his change of tactics and subs against Burton. On another day we'd have won that 3-2 down to the second half performance. I saw a coach who's not afraid to intervene and willing to do things his way. Having said that, at 0-2 down it's a bit of a no brainer. Nevertheless, a glimmer of 45 mins of on pitch progress.

    Let's see how he sets up for Brum. Attack, attack, attack and press, press, press.

    BTW it will be Victor A who will spark the goals arriving this season - you read it here first.
