I assume that he was unfit and that it was a late call because it's hard to otherwise explain that his shirt was out. The change to 4-4-2 and the ensuing performance really looked like it'd just been dropped on the players moments before kick off. If this is the case, is it really sensible to change formation? Not one single player seemed to know what was going on in the first 15 minutes or so. Impossible not to ask questions of the management tonight. Probably just didn’t fancy it.

Not many out of contract in the summer and were hardly going to be swamped with offers for the squad of crocks we have. I expect that there will be some wheeling and dealing. Maybe a couple of fans favourites will be used to fund incomings. Probably only Nuhiu of the out of contract players offered a new deal. I think that there will be a radical change of culture in the summer; strategy, fitness and discipline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a sorry state of affairs when he's in contention for player of the season, which I might add he may deserve to win (I think that could be a back handed compliment).

Then find good players who will take this club forward and promoted Over to you katrien now Let's see if your as good as we hope you will be She'll need to earn her money for sure but I think it's nailed on that Jos will be here next season which I'm happy with.

steelcityowlsfan Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 DC has the credentials but wants to do it his way which I get but he’s got to realise that his way so far this season isn’t working. It’s now seemingly down to Katrien to use her influence and get this club moving forward again. I suspect there will be some higher profile experienced managers with a history of success in this league. Will KM advocate this or does Jos get another crack with a fully fit squad? Which way we go will have a huge impact on next season for me. Thanks Jos but I’m hoping we move on from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swfcjack27 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Leaning towards getting rid. Don’t like the way he sets up going into games and through our 3 game purple patch the system didn’t work for long periods in each game. We haven’t got the pace nor fitness in the wing back positions to make it successful in my opinion. Thankfully we are pretty much safe but can’t see us kicking on under him next season to be honest.

Let's not make the same mistake we did with Carlos and leave it until all the money's been wasted and we're on a downwards slope. Yeh, let's just keep signing loads of managers for a few games in the hope it works out... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shireowl Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Not sure why people are pinning hopes on Katrien to direct DC in the right direction, she was appointed because she was a top lawyer to sort contracts out and will have as much say as Parker before her .

The published accounts say otherwise. Comes from a family who's business turn a 4 billion profit annually. Openly says he'd spend if allowed. Ok he's not Wolves rich but the richest owner we've ever had. I guess we'll really see how rich he is if we ever go up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groundhopping Owl Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 I think between a three game winning streak followed by two crap losses on the bounce views are naturally gonna bounce around a fair bit. Mine has shifted a little and I’d probably say at this point that I’d be OK with the club moving on from Jos in the summer, but only if we have a very good replacement lined up. If we bring in Mick McCarthy or another top manager at this level then I’m happy and I’ll thank Jos for his efforts. If we’re looking at Dean Smith or other questionable/unproven alternatives then I’d rather we stick with Jos - short-termism is absolutely crippling us so we’d better have a bloody good reason to do some more chopping and changing.
