Until after the Plymouth match...Davey In

then, who gives a ****?

 

well, thats ok, the match is on sunday, some fan you are............

 

Part of me thinks that Davey will stay no matter what..

not saying if that is the right thing or not....

 

Im sorry, but I dont agree

if we go down it will be because the squad isnt good enough, where do people get this misconception that we have a team good enough for mid table, Im baffled. Its ******, the team isnt good enough or we wouldnt be conceding goals in the last 5 minutes of games and we'd be taking chances.

Lets get real, its not entirely Daveys fault, he takes some of the blame yes, but he's not the one missing penalties, handballing it in injury time and not scoring from easy chances.

 

Simon davey has signed at least 23 players

Plus loanees.</p>

It looks like we have to start all over again every season...
</p>

 

I disagreed with the sub

but he put Mifsud on and if you read what Hassell said, was screaming at the players to push forward. The penalty misses and last gasp goals are totally out of his hands, and if you add up those points, we would be mid table. He signed them, so he's culpable. But if we stay up, we need a complete clear out of much of the squad. Anyone who thinks just changing the manager and keeping the same players will see us more competitive next year is just bonkers.

 

Simon Davey has made more signings than anyone i remember

He's made inbound transfers 45 times since taking over, thats an average of one player every 20 days since he took over.

The barnsley squad is his and the fact that as you say we have to keep rebuilding every year and making several last throw of the dice loanees towards the end of every season shows that Davey is simply not good enough.

 

that would never happen S.M. unless our saviour refuses to provide new cash because, a new manager brings with him a new broom. For better or for worse,who knows.

 

How can you push up when you have defensive players on the pitch?

And wasn't hassell on the opposite side of the pitch to the dugout for the last ten minutes?

 

I agree that the squad isn't good enough

But I disagree about whether or not that is Simon Davey's fault. I think it is for he signed the players.

 

The heart of this squad has shown that it can raise it's game to battle and fight against teams like Chelsea and Liverpool. Those 2 games didn't really require a manager to motivate them. It's games like Cardiff at wembley and practically every game since that has defined Simon Davey's ability to motivate a team.

He simply hasn't got it in him, to turn us into a team of fighters, to get the players to raise the game when backs are to the wall and hang on until the death. The players don't believe in their own ability and that's down to one man.

When he's gone, regardless of what happens to us. He will not be sought by a premiership team for his achievements with us, he'll be very, very lucky to get another chance at this level.

 

RE: I agree that the squad isn't good enough

of course its his fault, he stands and falls by his signings and results. But what annoys me is that some people seem to think its just his fault and that under a new manager the same squad would be pissing up the league. Like he's cursed or somet. The Davey voodoo.

 

not cursed, just not good enough.

 

New manager same squad

would mean another relegation battle. Very rare that you install a new manager and he keeps the same squad though. He will always try to sell some players and get some of his own in.

 

Forward line

imho that's where a new manager would start.

 

I just dont subscribe to this 'Davey tells them to sit back and defend a lead' ******. The players coughed for the goal, like they did in the previous games at Cov and Watford. No Davey mind game there, just lack of ability and bottle. In the players that we all think are just under performing under a poor manager - come on...... we're going down cos we';re ****

 

Davey took an attacking player off and replaced him with a defensive player

That's not a substitution that says attack the game and try to kill wolves off, it is a substittution that says try to defend the 1-0 lead for the next ten or 15 minutes
