Days and days of speculation while Doyen line up one of their own, namely Luhukay, an unemployed, complete non-entity with zero knowledge of Championship football and its challenges. Just out of interest, how much "knowledge of Championship football and it's challenges" did Jokanovic have before getting Watford promoted?

Well I thought getting Watford promoted to the Premier League was a pretty good achievement. They did not possess mega bucks that is for sure.

Roy Of The Roasters Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 What we should have learned from Fulham was - having failed at the first playoff attempt, look at where your squad most needs strengthening and make 1 or 2 shrewd signings accordingly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outlaw pete Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 We could learn from Brighton or Southampton, Bournemouth even Leicester ,Everton, Wolves,Burnley,Cardiff and Huddersfield. But do we ever learn anything at S6 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owls Loyal Posted November 14, 2018 Author Share Posted November 14, 2018 Yes, a small number of shrewd signings at a decent age would have been ideal after the Play Off defeat. I suspect that as it was mid-season even Doyen were trawling the bottom of the barrel in suggesting the hapless Luhukay. They probably got their fee anyway.

They also parted company with Stuart Gray when they should have kept him. Their defence has been awful since he left Stuart Gray gone as well ? Wonder where he will end up ?

I don’t see things ever improving for us until there’s a change of ownership here? It's a view. But who are we to say we deserve better. The Chairman is spending vast amounts to try and turn it around but a variety of circumstances and obstacles are preventing progression. In the summer, we get chance to tackle all our issues.

briggowl Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 If CC would learn anything I'd be more than happy to see us progress in a number of areas. 1. We're a business not a family. We need to sell players 2. Old Premier league players are not the way forward 3. You do not need to be loyal to managers that aren't winning enough 4. You need people around you to advise, who have a proven track record of success 5. You can't keep charging premium prices for rubbish Championship football. I'm sure there's other lessons too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then their introduction to the Premier League having not gone well they act decisivley. Jokanovic goes this morning and Ranieri is appointed on the same day. Compare that to SWFC after Carvahal left. Days and days of speculation while Doyen line up one of their own, namely Luhukay, an unemployed, complete non-entity with zero knowledge of Championship football and its challenges. To bringt a proven manager in seems like common sense, sadly common sense is rare commodity at SWFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Portsmouth are now finally turning the corner after a huge slump . unless ffp 39million gets scrapped I don't see an easy way out of all our problems .

sonofbert2 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 It looks like we were trying to follow the Watford blueprint and others have also gone this route. Both Watford and Fulham have a huge advantage recruiting players with them being in or very close to London too. But apart from that...... Coleslaw.
