Bit hypocritical, isn’t it though? You’ve complained about Pelach getting some criticism on this messageboard, but were fine with calling our previous manager a 'cunt' when he was here. Some criticism? He’d done nothing wrong and was getting hysterical abuse. It was pathetic. And it continues just because he isn’t this or that. I was fine with calling him a cunt because he acted like one. The initial criticism was aimed at the decision to bring in Norwich’s assistant manager, not at Pelach himself. Since then, we’ve gone from being average to being slightly worse than average. Still, nice accent, though… |

We just look better. And why wouldn’t I be backing the new bloke? I wanted the previous bloke gone and we need someone to finally work. Schumacher looked like that could be him to start with then he shat himself. Hopefully Pelach doesn’t shit himself. If you are truly nailing your hat on the mast for Pelach then fair play. He’s done nothing to convince me that he knows what he is doing. Today was a cat shit formation, and it’s a good job these are the wankiest team we have played so far this season. |

And there’s the real issue…. |

I think he's trying to foster a culture in the club that we haven't seen for a while, we have a young squad and there will be bumps in the road but I'm as optimistic as I've been any time since relegation save for maybe MON's first 12 months at the club.
It might be blind optimism but it just feels to me like we're slowly turning the corner, if we can just keep picking up points between now and January I'm excited to see what additions we'll make to the squad....

He’s started well and the team look a lot better. It’s just nice to see somewhat of a plan. A lot of togetherness. And a manager that actually believes in himself. |

Too early to tell. But so far so excellent is 1.27 points per game excellent ? His entire tenure judged on his performance so far? Did you not learn anything from Fergie at Man Utd? Obviously not. |

Is there anything worse and more cringey in this world than Bayern's crying laughing emoji after almost every post?

Says the man who’s called many of our players and previous managers, cowards and cunts. Because they’ve been cowards and cunts. Pelach was just appointed to replace a bloke who wasn’t doing well and the reaction was like he was shagging your wives and Mums 🤣🤣 🎶 Cowards, cunts, wives and mums, We'd hear it from the people of the town, Cowards, cunts, wives and mums, But every night all the men would come around, And lay their money down 🎶 🤣🤣🤣 |

Keeper does his job shocker. It absolutely is for us. We’d be below QPR with Bonham in goal. Which is why he isn't. If you want to succeed you play your best player in every position whenever possible. The club realised Bonham should be a no. 2 gk (which is why we loaned Travers and Iversen last season). We should be praising the decision to sign Erikson. Where would we be without Cannon's goals? |

Apart from us: Being a lot harder to beat. Losing 1 in 9. Actually having a plan. Having a real togetherness. The players fighting for a a manager. Heads not going down when we go a goal down or they equalise. Moving up the table steadily. |

I think the blindingly obvious one is the players look far far happier playing their football under Pelach than they did Schumacher which suggests to me the dressing room is in a much better place...... |

We are better to watch but we can’t carry on conceding so many decent opportunities for the opposition. I’m hopeful he will get it right but we will have many ups and downs this season. A decent window could transform our season and we probably only need a couple of good ones to do that.
Overall I’m pleasantly surprised by our performances and over the last couple of months, and you can see what he’s trying to do.
Still think we need 3 bona fide midfielders in there though even if it means sacrificing Junho or Moran or whoever.
Seko looks an excellent signing

But he definitely needs to do that over playing 442. |

Or alternatively: Winning only 3 in 12 Consistently conceding 20+ shots per game Lower points per game of any manager since Jones Lowest win percentage of any manager since Jones I can completely accept that the players are playing for him. Somewhat concerned that it’s translated into zero benefit to our results. |

I know you can’t stand Cannon but there’s no way I’m leaving him out until he goes back. Gallagher I think is a player to try and get in for certain games which would manage his fitness issues. Koumas is one who’s not being used correctly and I really don’t know where he fits in, probably as an impact sub unfortunately for a player with obvious talent. |

We are getting stuff from games that under Schumacher we wouldn’t. |

Koumas is a striker imo. He’s looked much better than Cannon centrally. He’s got more pace, better movement and is a better finisher. He looks lost out wide. |

Lowest win percentage of any manager since Jones I can completely accept that the players are playing for him. Somewhat concerned that it’s translated into zero benefit to our results. He has 14 points from his first 11 games. Under Schumacher we had 12 from his first 11. We had 6 points from 5 games when SS was sacked, we have 20 from 16 now. So slightly better on both fronts...... |
