    And so he should. He has adequate resources for survival at this level already. But he needs to pick a system (or 2 at most), and stick to it with a core set of players played in their correct positions.

    As good as a vote of confidence. The meeting of assurances stops here?

    Archie, I would take that apart from dropping Perkins and playing Digby.

    To be fair, I was trying to keep it as close to what I can see Flicker choosing, and to be honest, I can't see him giving Digby a go. Although I do agree with you.

    Good! He's picked players in the summer signed a big enough squad probably to big. So why should they give him more money to spend..

    Notice that none of players or management team have been available for comment

    My interpretation: Flitcroft is now fighting to keep his job, will have told the squad as much and Mansford is keeping the money back in case he has to pay severance.

    I'd settle for defensive solidity and a few dour, single goal wins to get some confidence back.

    Digby for Perkins and Pedersen for Scotland (when fit) and great team. Though if Scotland plays like he did on Saturday he's hard to leave out.

    30 odd in the squad last time I looked.

    There's championship quality in there. s'up to Flicker to get it on the pitch.

    make or break on Saturday for flicker imo, not a win or bust scenario but he and the team have to show lessons have been learned and we can look forward with hope, if its the same old, same old and another rollover and have our bellys tickled performance he might aswell drive straight home from Leicester and stay there, but as I say, that's just my opinion

    i tend to agree. i personally don't think people will be expecting us to go out and win, but i do think people will be expecting to see some changes. if people see the same tactics, with a similar result, the pressure will just continue to build.
