Not happy about this. Managers doing the bloody Twitters now?? The closest they're supposed to come to social media is chuntering resignedly about paying no attention to it and not even understanding it in press conferences. Preferably in a Geordie accent. Bring back TP and the Herberts Have you put TP and the Herbert’s on the shit band name thread yet? Hadn't seen it, I'm going in

It's blatantly obvious that we've dropped a huge bollock with our latest appointment. Let's be completely honest here. The statistics don't lie and we are in deep shit. I don't blame Pelach for one minute - Walters and his ego have fucked us royally. Burger is not injured by the way and the team selections are based on the attitude of the squad. The team felt fully involved and were on board with the direction the club was heading in. 2 players still need to move on but the dressing room was mostly up for the challenge ahead. Some players are disillusioned with the sacking and are still in contact with Ste. There is very little confidence with SJW and how the sacking was dealt with. Imagine being a player, who fully respects the manager and their vision and to have the rug pulled from under your feet with zero explanation. You then need to adjust to a manager, who has very little experience. You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to work it out. We're in a mess and it's mostly down to Walters. Can't see him or Pelach being here in January. The ship is rudderless. I’m not sure a united dressing room puts on performances such as the ones against Watford and Oxford at the start of the season….

Most players are just self centred and only interested in how any change in manager will affect them and their career personally. Many a pro has said this over the years…..

Johansson had a fairly average start under SS and has come into his own recently. Manhoef has blown hot and cold for both managers. Not sure I’m buying it to be honest?

I’m not saying Fish is lying btw. But assuming his source is SS then it’s hardly surprising we get a distinctly SS biased view. The flip side is some of the stuff about SS being late and borderline negligent in his duties. To be clear I know nothing. But I’m not sure anyone on here can claim to know the truth really.

Sadly the only fact that natters is that we have a hopelessly inadequate squad to compete at even mid table in this league .Everyone involved in the recruitment SS included,is responsible , they clearly could not form a proper working. Relationship and the casualty is stoke city for that all are acountable , it’s like a Liverpool playground dispute has destroyed another season and may well lead to the worst possible outcome , for that i say again they are all accountable , except NP . I actually agree it was the timing of the sacking as Much as the sacking that was insane neither results or any strategic thinking support the timing . As for NP he is just left with a poor squad , a huge lack of experience and a positional as the obvious patsy when it goes pear reshaped as it is . The new dawn has to end very spur very quick and we face a Birmingham like relegation battle and turnaround .

Narcis is here for a project, some players will adapt and some won't. We will try to keep the ones that do and move on the ones that don't adapt. He's only had 5 weeks that's no time, he's having to fit pre-season in during the season which isn't easy. The players need more time, they have a lot to learn.
We just need to back him, he will improve us. Project managers/coaches need time they aren't the type of people that walk into a club to just set up to grind out results with little ambition . He's part of an ambitious project where hopefully in time we will reap the rewards for the short term pain. I don't get rookie vibes from him, I get the feeling he has come here with a plan on how he will get us playing and he's just gathering information all the time on the players which he will use to improve them and I believe he will. Keep faith i think we have a good one

I’m warming to the bloke but the reality is we have one of the worst, slowest squads in the whole league with undoubtedly the second wankest defence after Portsmouth.
Can only hope we’re still in contention when we limp into January so he’s got a chance to try and get some bodies in.

I'm bored of it at this stage. I think NP will crack the puzzle eventually and have us as a top 10 serious contender next season. A top half finish this season would be a very good result for us all. But so long as we stay clear of any relegation battle and there's signs of the plan working then his job should be bullet proof..

I'm also bored of it and it sets us back further every time we replace the manager, I hope NP is given the time that Schumacher wasn't afforded.
The squad isn't nearly as bad as many on here make out, we've struggled a bit with injuries - I'd expect at least Gallagher and Lawal to be in the starting 11, possibly Pearson too (although I know plenty of folk on here have written him off already - he'd massively improve our current midfield though).
I think we'll finish mid table - we actually look like a team capable of scoring goals this season; which is already a massive improvement on previous years. Things are difficult at the moment, but that's to be expected with all of the change around the club, we're in yet another transition period, one which was probably unnecessary given results, but what is done is done, and I think NP will do alright here.

Totally agree on Schumacher. Terrible how the club handled that. Nowt we can do now though. But yes NP should be given the time required 👍

I understand your bias I really do, I liked Schuey but this is just garbage. We're acting like we've sacked somebody who had us charging at the play-offs. His PPG this season would have us finishing at 55 points, good enough for 19th last year. His PPG for the entirety of his tenure would've had us finishing with 62pts this year, good enough for 13th. He wasn't setting the world alight and the ones above him clearly want better. I stood there at Oxford wondering what the hell I was watching, tactically woeful. The introduction of a young foreign head coach with his own ideas will take time and we'll go through dips especially this early on, but at least now we have an identity, I didn't see this once under Schuey, or Neil for that matter. It's glaringly clear how unfit the squad left is, and that's alarming. Saying we've dropped a ball with this appointment and referring back to Shuey's 'greatness' already is just clutching at straws. Let it go and give it time. It could be a disaster, but that can't be judged yet. It could be a great move, but that can't be judged yet.

Not an awful lot to be honest. However I've been impressed with our pressing higher up the pitch. We seem to be searching for a lot more through balls and passing back less. Fitness improved although will take time to get them as fit as he needs. The back 4 can play out better. Marked improvement there. And the lad NP seems like an orate sort. And he's defo got a very good work ethic. Let's just give him some time, take some pressure off him and pray he can take us places 🙏

Get away, the displays at Watford & Oxford were nothing short of embarrassing. I understand your bias I really do, I liked Schuey but this is just garbage. We're acting like we've sacked somebody who had us charging at the play-offs. His PPG this season would have us finishing at 55 points, good enough for 19th last year. His PPG for the entirety of his tenure would've had us finishing with 62pts this year, good enough for 13th. He wasn't setting the world alight and the ones above him clearly want better. I stood there at Oxford wondering what the hell I was watching, tactically woeful. The introduction of a young foreign head coach with his own ideas will take time and we'll go through dips especially this early on, but at least now we have an identity, I didn't see this once under Schuey, or Neil for that matter. It's glaringly clear how unfit the squad left is, and that's alarming. Saying we've dropped a ball with this appointment and referring back to Shuey's 'greatness' already is just clutching at straws. Let it go and give it time. It could be a disaster, but that can't be judged yet. It could be a great move, but that can't be judged yet. What identity? There was nothing on show on Tuesday to suggest the new coach has a clue. Doesn't mean I want him gone, we can't keep changing but he has one hell of a job on his hands. Come on chief, the first 13 mins on Tuesday wanna bad was it? I certainly enjoyed it. The rest was a bit shyte granted but there was something there.

We actually scored the 2nd goal agains the run of play. We were overwhelmed by a bang average Bristol side. We were lacking in lots of areas.

We're held back by injury currently, coupled with a reluctance to play Phillips at centre back (my main criticism of Narcis at the moment). I think Bocat is pretty awful as a full back and can only work as a wing back, but 3-5-2 seems to be his Plan C. I really had hoped Junior would take up the challenge at right back but I'm getting a bad feeling about him. He needs to get to January without being too entrenched at the bottom but it seems likely. Give him some leeway to perhaps bring a couple in and go from there. He'll be here for the season at least and if he doesn't last longer it really is bad news all round, for the Club and Walters.
