    Donny away 1 nil totally flattered us we didn't have a shot on goal and struggled to put 3 passes together one of the worstperformances I've ever watched. I could name about 5/6 games that were absolutely awful football and people were in shock when he was sacked.

    He lost is respect when he never claps the away fans. Does he deserve abuse no. But he deserves to be called out

    Blimey! When you put it like that...

    I hope you've updated the script Ben?! Even Scorsese couldn't fit this saga of recent times into a 3.45 hour blockbuster. It's more like the entire series of Breaking Bad (just had an image of Conway cooking up meth in his garage :D)

    I’ll need to find that thread. It’s gone way beyond a one off Hollywood Blockbuster. It’s a drama series with multiple seasons

    Exactly my thoughts on this - summed up better and more eloquently than I ever could.

    He has had a bad hand to play with. Nobody disputes that.
    He has also achieved absolutely nothing with that hand and, in my opinion, played it much worse than he should have done.
    What's crazy, however, is the notion that no one else could play the hand better and that it's pointless trying to find anybody who could.
    Which I accept is not what you're saying.

    I've got a random take. In hindsight would we have been better off missing out on the play-offs? Selling Woodrow, Styles and Helik keeping the owners interested by filling their coffers and investing a bit more in the playing side than they did?

    Doubt it we would still have had Schopp as manager and our current defence without Helik..... no I dont want to even think about it

    I'm very nearly starting to feel sorry for Schopp now.

    If only he could:
    1. Acknowledge the fans instead of disappearing down the tunnel.
    2. Stop blaming the players.
    3. Get the attacking players to play some forward drills, so that they know what to do in a game
    4. Practice corner kicks / free kicks
    5. Play games with more than 2 players in midfield.
    Bullet points also for @RedVesp :)

    We've got some more winnable games coming up. I hope this has galvanised him and the players.

    Indeed. I'd take a bonus point this Saturday but that might be a bit greedy. Fancy us for six points from the two home games.
