All what? All a zero experienced sporting director. Looks like it. who say that Knapper, or Thorup are all that. Critics, pundits independent experts? No the only people who tell us they are all that are the board and we are expected to believe it and never question it. They are out of their depth.

We play with such a lack of urgency and tempo is painful to watch.

Honestly have we really made any effort to do anything but keep the defeat to a reasonable level. We came here an already beaten side. We’ve just played to try and not make it a big defeat.

Leeds

£10m on a Leicester player yet we spent £8.5m on Crnac!! And then play Onel up front. Give me strength!

Take it you disagree.

But that's not the point. It's not just the manager we're rolling the dice on! it's nearly everyone including the guy who finds the manager and the players!

...the problem Knapper no proven qualities as a sporting director. Thorup no proven qualities as a manager at a level even close to the championship. Player after player signed with zero experience of the Championship and no proven quality at a level equal to it. You bring that all together what you end up with is a bit of a mess of a team. Reliant on the ones already here and with very little resolve when it goes wrong. We lose games like Saturday and the cup game with a whimper. It's all just left to hope!

But it was alright to judge Smith. (We were actually 5th I believe) and Wagner who was judged by many long before he went. Bad is bad and you can see with your own eyes our tactics are shot to bits.

But where’s the proof or credentials to back up the idea he could do this?

Can’t argue with any of that. I’m doing everything I can to convince myself he’s not just the cheap choice and that actually he’s good enough for this level but I’m struggling to understand his continuing bad tactics.

He is currently so bang average it's painful. Crnac may come good but I've seen nothing yet to say we've up graded from Idah. I honestly think if Idah had been given the same amount of starts and playing time here this season as Crnac has had he'd have scored more goals and had more assists. Idah is not good enough for this level but nor is Crnac. The future might prove different but as of now we're actually probably worse off playerwise

Only one thing to say. We’re too soft. We are soft at the back soft in the midfield.

I’d be tempted to take Barnes out!

If ever there has been a player robbing a living at this level it Sorensen!
