Well perhaps he's just unlucky then but the last thing we need is an unlucky manager. What goes around comes around.

What was wrong about the performance today. Joe Allen's rash decision cannot be legislated for. He shouldn’t have been selected, he’s absolutely shit. We were doing amazingly before he made that insane challenge. Agenda's everywhere on this board, everywhere. We're low, but that performance wasn't rewarded with the points it deserved. The warm applause at the end for Jones as well will speak louder than this insane board.

They won’t sack him after the sending off. It will not go down well. As such he buys himself another game.
However, I saw enough today to conclude he needs to go.
Good decision to play Badou. The thought of he and Etebo in the middle give me hope. However the three centre halves is killing us along with the shambolic offering of the left wingback!
Today, the right decision following the sending off was to go to four at the back. No way were we solid enough to hold them for the 90 mins. Should have put Campbell up top with Gregory to pin them back.
Should have subbed Lindsay for Campbell, Ince on the right McClean on the left and Clucas at left back. Gregory could have played at 10 ahead of Badou and Campbell up top. McClean and Ince could have helped out to defend in the middle.

Agreed but he picked him and the rest of the side and dictated the game for the remaining 78 mins. He picked Allen ahead of Etebo He picked the 3 CBs He picked the formations. It’s all good having the 10-11 excuse but we didn’t lay a glove on them after we went down. I think he’s an albatross and still needs to go.

Of course you can blame Jones, he picked Allen and made him captain when he’s woefully out of any resemblance of form. Jones picked the same unbalanced team, lacking pace, guile, goals and ability to defend. Same lack of attacking intent, muddled tactics, thinking, subs and shape.
Another 2 free weeks to work with his players and what do we get, just the same different players, same shit,
His players, his choices, his tactics, his lack of nous, his subs, his motivational skills, his chopping and changing without changing anything and his unbelievable awful record to date.
Of course you can blame Jones, it’s fucking obvious.

How can Coates sack him after his RadioStoke interview ?
he's not going to go from "we like what he's doing" to "you're fired" in the space of a few days.
i think coates is determined to give him 10 games come what may.

1 point out of 21 and people are STILL arguing he needs more time?
Unreal.

Get him gone, get him gone now.
We're going down with him in charge, no doubt in my mind.

One day when you own Stoke City, you can decide to sack the manager. Until then, I will support the team we have.

You can bemoan luck, bemoan the ref all you like and say we showed effort and work rate (which for me is the minimum requirement as a footballer) but for me the only way we are going is down with this man in charge 3 wins in 29 Can't defend - worst defensive record in the league. 1 point from 21 available Simply not good enough.

I thought the performance was spot on, before the sending off and after.
Individual errors have cost us again.

Surely nobody can use today's game as any sort of barometer. The game was over as a contest after 12 minutes therefore no praise for NJ but likewise no stick to beat him with either.
Move on to Brentford and see if what appeared to be positive signs at the start of today's game continue.

He cannot survive two goals conceded yet again. The second half collapse and the abject, disorganised defending cannot be excused by a sending off because it keeps happening game after game.

Of all the ITK's on here, trust you the most chopper. How confidently would you say that this might be it for him? We played better today but it still doesn't excuse the fact it's yet another loss.

Chopper is usually spot on for an ITK. Wonder what he knows. After Coates interview all I can think is that persuaded to leave my mutual consent so it doesn't appear he's been sacked?.
