What bothers me is that all the media guys and our supporters expected us to get nothing at Liverpool last Saturday. How things have changed over just a few months is really baffling. We have a new manager which let's face it would have been sacked by any other club by now. We beat Liverpool twice to get to a major Cup Final and really should have beaten Man U in the final with basically the same players we have now. Some of our supporters blame the players for not performing and are not blaming the manager which really confuses me. Look at teams like Burnley, Bournemouth, Brighton etc. average players but excellent management skills to get the best out of what they have. Our current manager and his associated useless management team have no clue how to change things. Les Reed made a massive mistake appointing MP and I'm sure he knows it but I reckon he is just stubbornly hoping a miracle happens which it won't. We will almost certainly be in the bottom four by Christmas and then Reed sacks MP and brings in somebody else when the game is almost up leaving the new guy in a very desperate position. Having said this who would want to take the job if the position by that time is almost hopeless? What has happened over the last 12 months has ruined everything that was achieved over the last 5 seasons. Why can't the board see this when it is obvious to everybody else.

Saint Chris, good post. Agree with most of that, however something else is worrying me. If we were to take away that amazing goal from SB against WBA and a fortunate penalty against WHU, we would already be in a much more precarious position. All in all it is terrible football, few goals, body language is not right, and generally worrying times.

Don't Agree with of that . "Yeh, he's had so much time to develop" his style (Not saying he will) But I Do Not Agree with sacking a manager after 10-15 games. And Didn't everyone Rant on about How Lucky we were to have such a well run club esp Les Reed. Fickle and it winds up . Sorry!
