    100% it's a dig at the owners and he's well within his rights to do so. It won't go down well but get these people out of our club..

    I think him admitting our squad is substandard isn't a feeble excuse, its a fact

    I reckon he's got a month to 6 weeks from here, tops.

    I'm not saying it's necessarily the right decision to sack him but I can only see it going one way from here.

    Oh dear, he's probably just signed his own death warrant.
    They don't like it up 'em, our bosses. The truth hurts.

    I think he's got til end of November, or less depending on other clubs sacking managers and putting competition into the equation.

    First step though is making next weekends effort have some energy and organisation. He'll have had a week and a half to get his ideas and organisation across. He suggests he's a good man manager too. So on that basis, given time, the Blackpool game should see an improvement. If not, I think alarm bells will ring more loudly, irrespective of result.

    Yes, it’s substandard but is it so bad that we manage one (yes one) feeble off target effort in 90 minutes against a side in our own division? Come on…..

    What a sausage you chose to play the kids.. stopped digging the players now the owners. You took the job on knew what you had to work with. No matter what the performances have been unacceptable.

    I could understand him saying this after Saturdays defeat, although there isn’t a gulf between us and Wycombe, Stockport or Stevenage to use as an excuse for not winning.

    With regards to Tuesday, I don’t think it’s fair to throw in a weakened side and bemoan the gulf in quality.

    I feel for the guy I really do, yes he's not entirely blameless but this lot will just throw him under the bus and sack him.
    There's not a manager or head coach out there worth his salt would work under these prats and their delusional ideas.
    Said it on another thread he's either insane and lost it or he's trying to prove a point to those above with all the chopping and changing that we are having to put square pegs in round holes.
    Definitely been sold short

    Thing is though all summer he was stressing his involvement in recruitment.

    What manager who values their future reputation would come and work under our T&Cs. We have become the Watford of L1, apart from the part where we don't actually make it hugely financially worthwhile enduring.

    Difficult for him to claim that when he came out saying he was happy with the recruitment at the end of the transfer window following Dunn and Humphrey’s joining.

    I get it's not the easiest job in football but it's not as hard as Clarke making it look for me. Just watched his post match interview as I was wondering who's fault it was last night I had ruled out it been anything to do with him as it appears it never is turns out it was Huddersfields fault put out too stronger team out apparently. On the upside we got minutes into player's you bet we did Darrell they plenty of running chasing shadows as your sides can't retain the ball for toffee.
