    Yes I'm rarely wrong when it comes to duds.

    Very early days mate .
    At least Schopp will have a better Idea of what he needs to play his way.

    Lets just wait until we have seen what he can do with the full squad available to him, and the other new lads have been bedded in.

    He's got 3 new strikers at his disposal(one of the weaker areas of the team last season until Dike and Morris came in, one of which has gone and the other is injured), none of which must be fit enough for the first team yet, and has had to re-jig the midfield to replace our captain and best player. There are promising signs there, though. Benson looks like he has all the tools to be a great signing, and then you have two serious talents in Styles and Palmer, so I'm not too worried.

    The thing that does worry me, is the tippy tappy stuff at the back. I get that last seasons direct play was not the best to watch(despite it working), but this is a step too far the other way, and does not allow for the mega-press to be as effective. Hopefully, this is just teething problems though.

    How's about

    End of Feb
    AKA 8 months

    Precisely the amount time VI was here and was deemed good enough for poaching/jumping ship?

    To be fair, it's not the gaffers fault that we couldn't hit the proverbial with a banjo.

    As much as I love him, Styles had the goal gaping from about 8 yards out.

    Snatched at it. It was puckered up nicely. All he had to do was stick it in.

    True, our finishing is woeful and has been for sometime now. Things started to look up with Morris & having DD on loan. I can’t help but think Schopp might be abit out of his depth here. Doing well in some Austrian league doesn’t transfer well to what is arguably one of the toughest leagues in Europe IMO. DS obviously did well for us in L1, but struggled in the Championship as did Struber IMO. Only Val had an idea of what was required. The football may not have been pretty, but it got us results & made us difficult to beat, that’s what matters in this business. I’ll give MS the benefit of the doubt though as he clearly doesn’t have all the players fit & at his disposal.

    I'll give him time but if it is going tits up I'd hope the board would act quickly to save our season. I'd hate to miss out on automatic promotion.

    Agree. 4 points from 3 games is 1.33 per game which would equate to 61 points at the season end. Over the past seasons that is comfortably mid table. Last season may have given us false optimism for this season. Teams are wise to ‘vertical football’ and our current players are not suited to it. We need to be patient and reserve criticism for a couple of months.

    If we have 7 wins by Christmas we should be more or less safe.

    I think its a stretch to say Struber struggled in the Championship- I think he did a pretty decent job
    as for Schopp its far too early to say - he may struggle and turn out to be a bad choice or he may turn out to be the next Ishmael or Wilson(1) chances are he will be somewhere in the middle but we wont know for some time yet
