    This has got to be a joke! Referring to Oliveira as a ‘quality player’ is laughable. He shouldn’t be in the squad again on the basis he’s not good enough (worse than our current three strikers). Before people start complaining about the fact he was feeding off scraps - look at his goal record wherever he’s been - it’s poor.

    For anyone at the match - how did he play? What type of player is he?
  3. Cobain18
    Constantly hiding - never runs near post for a cross, very rarely near penalty spot when wingers have ball, just stands on outskirts of area and blames winger when cross doesn’t find him. Can’t head a ball, fancy flicks often lose the ball - hold up play horrible!

    Bang average player, provided we add in Jan, not fussed about this at all, especially if he’s on big wages
  5. Cobain18
    I have it on good authority that it is. Not overly pleased with this, think it''s a step backwards given his complete inexperience!

    Had the season of his life in Champs. Not good enough for premier league by a stretch which was leaguer we were playing in when we sold him. Not set the world alight at Derby, back to being average Champs player. At the time, correct decision to sell. I''d have him back now but you don''t keep a player in case you get relegated. Similar story to Chris Martin a few seasons before.

    [quote user="Inch High aka Inchy.."]Idiot.[/quote] Very articulate and well thought out argument..... Don''t see the issue, Rowett is completely unproven; I don''t get why he''s so popular; he never got Brum in playoffs. Warburton is a better option than Rowett to megiven what he did at Brentford but still questionable. Pardew did well at Newcastle emphasised by where they are now. Pardew has been in playoff finals and got West Ham promoted from this league, taken them to an FA cup final (second FA cup final of his career). Pardew also took Palace to their best ever premier league finish. Surely the most decorated manager of all the candidates - not sure why some are so quick to dismiss, perhaps the facts above will change some minds.

    He wants it (Charlie Wyatt usually knows what he''s talking about) - lets get him!

    [quote user="The Nightfly"]Cobain18. Allegedly, the role wasn''t what he thought it was - one could argue he''s been a bit naive if that''s the case. Or was he told a different story and he''s seen the reality?[/quote] You could draw that conclusion!

    You and me both. Hope we can rely on the board to do the right thing!
  14. Cobain18
    Can we please employ him! I know it won''t happen and we''ll end up sacking Neil in 2 games and replacing him with Hodsgon but really think Pardew would be a good replacement

    [quote user="Huckerbys Boots - Matt"][quote user="Cobain18"]Fans were a disgrace at the weekend!! Bassong''s confidence shot to bits because of jeers, boos and sarcastic cheers. We''ve ruined a decent champs player much in the same way we ruined Snodgrass while he was at the club - he''s now doing ok. Bassong helped two clubs to promotion last season .... Hasn''t suddenly become a bad player.[/quote] Nail on the head Cobain, Bassong helped two clubs to promotion, not last season but 2 years ago. Since then he has been abysmal in the prem, and abysmal this season. He''s finished.[/quote] That''s quite a basic explanation - no one seems to have volunteered a reason/source of the problem. Why has he suddenly started playing badly? Can he recover his form? I''d suggest he''s a very goid championship player and would regain confidence elsewhere, making a lot of fans on this board look rather foolish

    Is he in a job? What are people''s thoughts? Could be a solid appointment.

    [quote user="unique"]With Pinto and Olsson eager to attack rather than defend, and with Tettey contributing absolutely sweet FA to either the attack or defence, should AN be trying three at the back? Dispense with Tettey, and play Martin, Bennett and Klose. Martin''s role could be to cover either full-back whenever they are attacking, as well as providing more cover at set-pieces. Dorrans can play the defensive midfield role, but with the added bonus that he can actually pass a football. Trying something different can''t be any worse than continuing with the current weekly defensive disaster.[/quote] Time to stop panicking! Chopping and changing formations is not the answer!

    [quote user="Crafty Canary"]Rudd is good enough at this level.[/quote] Is that a joke? Lol

    This is such a ridiculous thread. 1. Wolves is a better job than a stable team who has been a yo yo club for the past few years. Do me a favour! 2. Lambert is better than Neil??? He did a great job with a team (Culverhouse et al). The moment they left him, Villa collapsed. He couldn''t replicate it at Blackburn. Lambert has so much to prove in terms of whether he can replicate his success with a different team around him 3. We''re underachieving and Neil should be fired. Let''s not sugarcoat this, the weekend was a disgrace!! We''re a few points off autos going into Christmas which is where I''d expect any serious challengers to be (1st down to 5th or 6th generally). I''ve yet to hear an obviously better replacement, I''d suggest on that basis a knee jerk, emotional reaction may not yield the results we''re all hoping for and it may be worth giving him a few games ..... We could be in autos again in 3 to 4 games. Similarly, a couple of losses finding out (which I don''t think will happen) won''t define our season.

    Unfortunately, today is the first time I''ve felt Neil may have to go. I say unfortunately as I actually think he''s a good manager but it sounds as if some players don''t want to play for him. That makes them a disgrace but unfortunately will mean the end of the manager as opposed to them. Thoughts then turn to who we employ next which scares me a little right now. Lambert is a no for me, Hodsgon and Allardyce wouldn''t come here for the money we''d offer (even if we want them); Sherwood is a maybe but unproven ...... I start to run out of names a little then. This is the conundrum the board are faced with - who would do a better job than Neil (that is attainable) right now?

    [quote user="Keith Scott"]Newcastle showing us how it''s done. That is all. Actually just like to add, ''Russel Martin is good at this level'' ''He''s just a scapegoat''............[/quote] Stupid comment.
  23. Cobain18
    Same way Bryan Robson used to
  24. Cobain18
    I do wish some of the idiots on this thread would go and watch another sport ...... Clueless!!
  25. Cobain18
    I hate our fans sometimes .... Idiots! Anyone who''d consider sacking Neil knows nothing about football!
