We had a large warchest this summer, our net spend is virtually nothing.. he war chest is virtually untouched, we've filled our squad with European lower league players. What else did our board expect. TBF neither Ferencvaros or Basel are lower league. And our only scorer is from a newly promoted You get what you pay for.

Playoffs would represent true tangible progress in my view anything less is another season much like the last 5 2007 we missed out on the play offs on the last day, the progress that season set us up for promotion the following season If we did the same this season I for one would definitely state that as progress finishing close to the play offs points wise imho would be clear progress Personally I think 10th would be progress but it would depend on how many points short that would look like Assuming 72/75 points required for the play offs looking for 65 points or more this season Another season like the last few years then he goes on May Yeh id take just missing out as being progress but after today I really don't want to wait til May to see the back of this charlatan - he's a(nother) busted flush no mark and needs to be sacked today.

I’m desperately trying to find the patience to allow this manager and new squad to gel. I think they need it. Having said that it’s plainly not working- it’s shit. Again, another season and it’s the same old shit.
The question the board need to ask themselves will he turn it around? Or are they going to get rid and rip it up again? I’m sick of asking the same question over the last six seasons.

DJ has been our best defender. He's good at passing backwards I'll give him that

Utterly abject performance but Neil’s part in it was massive, utterly clueless management, full stop.

Minimum is to drop Laurent and play people in their right positions. Especially since they're fit.
DJ at LWB and Wilmot at what was basically LB. Then 2 wingers as the front two before Wesley came on. I don't get it.

Alex Neil, if you're reading this, for that performance I hope a seagull poos on you and some of it goes in your ear.

It's an obvious answer too...

The likes of Junho, Haks, Vidigal have to be wondering what the hell they've walked into. Burger. Bet he didn't expect to be getting hooked before half-time inside his first five games

Looks like he’s lost the players (if he hasn’t already) and now the supporters. There is only way this ends so let’s save ourselves the grief of hanging onto this manager until November when we will be on the bottom 3 and go get Graham Potter

I have defended AN since he arrived, but I'm starting to think is he the one who can turn it round.
Trouble is, if he goes, we will just bring in someone like our past 5 managers, instead of going for a foreign manager.

The coloured lad with the blond curls ran the game and was in acres of space all game. Surely Neil must have seen this and told Laurent or Thompson to man mark him and give him no time. Neil did nothing! Says it all if he can't see the obvious he has to walk. Laurent as Captain should also have acted to nullify this threat.

We all knew we needed a CB and a striker, pity AN didn't. A LB is even more important. If only to stop the 3 at the back madness We could have got that striker from Albion for 5 million and I think he would have made a difference.

What are the stats when we Start with Laurent and Campbell. Do we win Many ? 😂 Campbell has got fuck all to do with it. Peoples persistence to stick a boot into Campbell is fucking weird If you regularly watch Campbell and think he doesn’t deserve a Massive fucking boot then that is infinitesimally more weird. 😂 I wouldn’t say he is a chancer but I would say that any manager who is persistent in starting “The Tired One” needs tasering.

Is Graham Potter still available? We need someone else! Yes he is available. Now Describe the un-worldly set of events in which he becomes our manager 😏

I've not watched today. Was it really that bad? Looking at the stats we had more shots on target and equal possession. Was it we just made to many defensive errors?

It was beyond bad the players don’t no what they are doing from game to game tactics change message changes position of individual players changes all down to a manager who hasn’t got a clue get rid before it’s to late

This wasn't a game where we played well but were let down by individual mistakes. We were outplayed pretty much throughout. Even Pete Smith, who isn't prone to hyperbole, described our defending as gormless and dished out 3s and 4s in his ratings.
