Orlando_Trustful Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 No idea where we're heading at the moment. It seems inevitable CC will be gone at some point in the near future. The football is truly woeful to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowl Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Can't see DC pulling the trigger yet. This is the best start we've made to a season under CC after all! He'd have sacked him in the summer if 6 points from 5 games was going to be enough for him to bring someone else in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Farrell Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Worst manager in our modern history. Huge resources wasted. Stunned hes still hanging on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiamK2292 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Need to get rid asap before it's too late. Can I see it happening? Sadly not. DC is too stubborn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modboy Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 (edited) is it though? Barnsley demolished Sunderland today but some of our fans were happy with our point last week against Sunderland. Our own reluctance to attack is our weakness Edited August 26, 2017 by modboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheffield_dave Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 (edited) Following last season and the show of faith of a new contract, Carlos needed a good start this year. We've absolutely failed that initial objective before the international break. What's worse is the amount of people queuing up to excuse it. Probably because we picked up a solitary win at Fulham or looked bright for about 10 minutes in a game. I don't know how far up your own arse you've got to be to fail to see that this current set up has run it's course. I'm desperate to see what another manager would do with this squad now. He should be gone by Tuesday (let's give the club some slack for the bank holiday - they've earned it after working so visibly hard over the summer) Edited August 26, 2017 by sheffield_dave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The clappers will clap whoever you appoint. That's what they do. If I was DC, I would be going down to my cellar to give my axe a good old polishing!

owls_wawaw Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 it's about time the manager realised from a so so club we are now over the last two seasons become a top draw in this division and a big scalp so everbody is up for playing us and put in better performances against us when we come to town. a good manager adapts to this and is not affraid to have a go. unfortunately cc is not our man for this. in his head playing negative football got him fourth and a better points tally so he is never gping to change on this.

It's amazing how quick people are on here to produce stats that support having such a sh*t start to the season. God forbid we have any ambition for starting a season well for a change. God forbid we want to pick up more points against a very average set of teams than last year (when we didn't get promoted and ultimately failed our objectives as a result). God forbid we aim for as many points as possible to try and challenge for the auto's. Edited August 26, 2017 by sheffield_dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigthinrob Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 1 hour ago, Mr Farrell said: The clappers have to accept a huge portion of responsibility for encouraging Carlos to continue with his anti football approach. I actually blame them above Carlos. You are assuming social media types (whether 'pro' or 'anti') have even a minuscule influence on team & club affairs. Also the 'Clapper' thing is a bit played out mate, bit lazy, bit predictable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
