Time For A New Manager - This Week...

[Compo's Hat]

Loved the note incident in the second half. Rodgers gave Sig a note to give to pearce and then Alan Lee of Palace tried to take it off Pearce

I reckon the note just said 'Testicles' on it.

Comedy genius seeing Pearce line up against Moses. Think he had the tactics folder upside down.

Still thinking he's Mourinho

Who'd come here?

Coppell? Tisdale? Parkinson?

Why would he want to come back to a club this shit?

[Barry the bird boggler]

Ok fellow biscuit men, enough is enough and it's time for this fool with his book of broken tactics to be fired.

All the people that say give him to Christmas, no that is no good whatsoever.

We need to remove this idiot now so that a new and better manager can come in and see what he's got in terms of team...

...AND SPEND A FEW WEEKS BEFORE THE OPENING OF THE TRANSFER WINDOW TO KNOW WHAT HE NEEDS TO GET IN...

...ideally, I'd say a whole new squad.

I would also be up with firing a few players includes that complete idiot Hammond and bringing Marcus back on loan of possible. That action alone geting rid of him has probably caused us countless goals to be let in. Adam is would be better suited to playing in a sunday school league.

It's not about promotion anymore, it's about survival and we need to make a stand and get for example Liam and Harper BACK.

DO YOU SEE?

Football managers are like lemmings they would all jump off a cliff for money and thats what its all about
any number of manager would come here beleive me

[fester_royal]

who would want to come here to work under the egomonster regime, BR is making the best of a bad deal, with the two oxf*rd at the top selling or getting rid of any decent players we had, and replacing them with "has" and some, never have beens, what does everyone expect ?? Marcus ?? no chance !! No 1 for Wolves now....................another cluster f*** from the two oxf*rd !!

+1... with money bags sir john in charge, sacking Rodgers wont get us any where but an even cheaper replacement.. face it. we're up poo creek with no paddle and no rudder!!

[Harpers So Solid Crew]

I am sure there would be a long queue of managers wanting the job if it were available.

There is always a long queue for every job, does not mean that JM would get it right tho. this job was a poisoned chalice for whoever took it, for reasons said many a time on here.

[The Real Sandhurst Royal]

Yes it is it time for a new manager he has had his chance he has proved he does not tactically know what he is doing after 20 games which is 12 too many he should have gone after 8.

Curbishley or Fergurson get my vote to try to recover this situation, failure to act now will result in us playing league 1 football next season.

[fester_royal]

your talking a good manager... these are either employed or cost wages... either requiring compensation or the club to fork out fortunes... at this point id like to remind you who our chairman is... Sir john would give us a copper coin! and then bemoans the poor attendences and our attitude! you really think hell get us a new manager do you???
regardless of the obvious, no manager would want to take on the club with no available budget to sign anyone anyway!!

[Harpers So Solid Crew]

no available budget to sign anyone anyway!!

Hang on there is the £2m that was not used to sign Smith.....................







































ah

[Terminal Boardom]

1. BR is tactically inept and does not have the experience or nous to change the way the team is playing for the better.

2. Too much fiddling and tinkering with the line up. The Sig is the best youngster this club has produced in 20 years. He has to play every game!

3. The financial shackles on the club make it impossible for the club to move forward, let alone stand still. We desperately need investment to arrest the slide.

4. Fitness of players is a joke. We always look to be running out of steam. Why does Sig ALWAYS get subbed around the hour mark when he starts?

5. Get Mooney, Bignall, Davies and Henry back from loan. How BR can ALLOW us to go into home games with only 1 striker is beyond me.

Question is, who would want to work for SJM? How could things actually improve with getting a new manager in? Changing the manager and offering a wad of dosh to spend in the January sales is just not going to happen. SJM no longer cares about this club and is desperate to get rid. Sadly, no-one is willing to entertain the thought for now.

I see no improvement and no change for the forseeable future. If BR was going to be removed he would have gone by now. No way will there be enough time for SJM to get someone new in and allow him time to assess the squad AND have new players lined up.

I do see but it won't happen!

[ROKERITE]

I can certainly foresee a vacancy or two, if not a new manager, in The Championship this week. Fortunately, I trust any vacancy will not be at The Madejski. Hillsborough is surely the most likely place but The Ricoh can't be far behind; and Loftus Road is sounding increasingly like a strong candidate.

And I don't think it will long before Luggy steps upstairs and Mariner takes over as Team Manager at Argyle.

[madmickb]

you all saying we cannot afford another manager well can we afford to be relegated to league 1

[Terminal Boardom]

I made this point on the perspective thread. Sadly, SJM is not one to throw money, willy nilly, at Reading FC. Would you trust BR with £5 million say?

['lista]

I reckon the note just said 'Testicles' on it.

It said 'You should wear tighter trousers..............'

[Jackson Corner]

I said all along Aidy Boothroyd was the man experianced, available and good with working on a small budget. To late now he's gone and working his magic at Colchester.

I think JM is so desperate to sell he will produce money to see in the Championship, who will buy a League 1 club? If we go down expect us to buy our way out like we did with Butler, Cureton et. al.

[Ryn]

Surely he would have learnt that investing the money when you are doing badly will arrest the slide down the table (leagues).

We were relegated from the Premiership due to not investing, and we are likely to get relegated from the Championship as well as this rate.

Spending the money down in League 1 is closing the door after the horse has bolted. Spend sensibly in January, avoid relegation.

Don't spend, and face a relegation fight. It's that simple now.

That's the same Aidy Boothroyd who when sacked, left Watford in a relegation fight from which they were saved and taken to mid-table comfort by Brendan Rodgers. The same Aidy Boothroyd whose dismissal brought a collective cheer from the Watford support, fed up with his dreadful kick and rush football ,which having initially been successful (I made money on them in his first full season in charge) ended by adding failure to boredom. In fairness to him, he may well have learned a lot from his time at Vicarage Road and he claims the football his teams play is no longer just route one. He's started well at Colchester United, but as I'm always saying about Rodgers; it's too soon to tell.
