nbupperthongowl Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Maybe he is waiting for the new manager to tick a few things off his bucket list before he starts. That would be excellent man management.....and what could possibly go wrong with that approach..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If any other manager had achieved the same results as Bullen this season would you be calling for him to be replaced? So you feel Lee Bullen is the man for the job then , fine .

No just wondering how we as a fanbase react when the new manager doesn't do better than Bullen over five consecutive games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must agree we need to get someone in and concentrate on a push at going up . We as a fan base have to get behind the manager regardless of whether we agree with the appointment or not . This current situation is clearly not helping . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His team selection & set up yesterday, playing away against a strong & physical side would suggest he's already starting to struggle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New owners wanting to bring in their own man?? Would be a nice thought, sadly it’s more likely that Chansiri is just letting it play out whilst wanting to show loyalty to Bullen. Not realising that it’s not the way things should be done in football. And that wouldn’t be the first time. I like chansiri being the owner, but I think he needs to appoint a manager now to settle the club down. Be it Bullen or someone else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Jockstrap Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I think quite a few have made similar comments regarding the situation, it is becoming ridiculous. Either appoint Bullen (hope we don’t) or get someone in to start building a team strategy for the season. We have played 4 poorish team, although Reading seem to have picked up and 1 decent team, 9 points is an ok return. What worries me is the lack of tactics and changes that make little or no difference. A professional and experienced manager will surely make a difference? As to the right candidate, who knows, not seen who has really expressed an interest apart from Holloway ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the manager situation is becoming farcical. I think we have a good squad, a squad capable of getting in the play offs. But it needs structure. Are we seriously going to keep plodding along with a caretaker in charge? It’s a bit tinpot/unprofessional. It’s been over 6 weeks, with allegedly over 100 applicants. Sort it out and sort it sharpish It’s clear he doesn't know what to do/ have a plan. ..just seem to be ignoring it and hopes it just goes away. Which of course it won’t! It it could only happen here .. Edited August 25, 2019 by Earlsfieldowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I have to agree. There is probably an opportunity to have a go this season, but the longer we leave the managerial issue unresolved, the more it threatens to undermine our efforts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think DC hired a 2 million a year man in Bruce so that he could sell the club. He was really annoyed when he left, rightly so, but to suggest he now is preparing to sell and therefore not making an appointment is highly unlikely. Remember he offered the job to Houghton.
