    How the flip is he still employed.

    At some point "stats" must yield to facts - and the cold hard facts are that there is *nothing* left.

    For F'ks sake wake from the slumber you halfwits and do something to change the inexorable slide to obscurity!

    It’s not a knee jerk reaction from the fans that want him gone. It’s that all his shortcomings are there for all to see. Relationship with players and team selection etc.
    Quote from Robins tv commentators was “Barnsley sticking with their plan so that will leave us with many more opportunities”. It’s there for all to see if you know anything about football.

    Out of all the strange stuff that goes on at BFC not sacking Schopp is one of the most bizarre decisions ever.

    It cant be financial as form continuing will cost the club far more money in relegation than paying him off
    Its clear that the players dont want him.
    Ive not seen for a long time a clamour from the fans to sack a manager as this.

    The longer he stays the more concerned i am about what actuallty is happening with the owners, to keep Schopp indicates a bigger problem, they didnt mess about with getting shut of Stendel or Morais when things werent going well.

    Maybe at the next Q&A our new CEO might be transparent again and explain how the owners are looking to make more money in league 1.Because that's the only thing to make any sense, the owners get richer that way.

    I can only think that if the owners have plans to leave then they are keeping the payoff money for the new owners to shell out on sacking Schopp or as a sustainable company living within our means there is no money to sack him and we ae waiting until January to sell a player to raise the funds.

    It’s really concerning me that they literally don’t have the money to sack him. That’s the only explanation I can come up with for him staying, plus the West Stand shenanigans.

    Strange when we have to sell a player to be able to afford to sack the manager.

    I dont think they will put there hand in thier pockets for anything and to pay him off that might be whats required.

    No. It is even more bizarre that we have to sell a coach/manager to pay off the current one.

    What happened to the 2 million from WBA for VI... Not been spent on players that's for sure.

    The club's bank account is £750k lighter than it should be. I wonder if the CEO has found time to gain an understanding of this. He didn't know anything about it at the last Q&A session. Transparency my arse.

    Perhaps difficult questions should be given to the CEO in advance, to avoid any embarrassing "I don't know about that" answers. Ditto the missing £750k.

    He didn't know anything about how many fans had asked for refunds either despite being asked the same question a few days earlier by the media.

    In short he's either a liar or extremely incompetent

    If its money the issue they are bigger fools than a thought as we will lose more going down whilst it aint a guarantee we will stop up with a new manager but it's a guarantee we will be down under him.

    I personally think schopp is an easy ride and the owners can do what they want with him in charge as he won't ask for anything. That's only the thing I can think of.

    I really do start to think he's wanting the sack for the pay off due to the strange team selections and he's never even try to engage with the fans clapping our hardcore away fans. It's always the players.

    I hope he’s taken to task about his ‘not worried about relegation comments’. We need 42 points off 31 games. That’s not far off play off form.

    This is what I can’t understand. Is there nobody at the club that can take over as a caretaker?

    I’m at the point where I don’t think anybody could do worse, and I mean literally anyone. Conway could take over himself and just tell the players to figure it out for themselves, which seems to be the approach from Schopp.

    The fact that we’ve conceded again in a similar fashion to numerous times before and then he comes out and says we’re getting closer is frightening. He’s deluded.

    Exactly what I was going to say.

    Whack him on gardening leave and give the caretaker job to disco or even Bobby to tread water until January. Anything.

    This just has to be stopped now. It’s gone way beyond the ridiculous.
