Selles not out

[blythspartan]

Getting to the point of not wanting to watch us with Selles in charge now

Think that was about the worst we’ve played this season. No excuse with having our first choice 11 on the pitch

Subs just like for like when we are playing crap. No plan b. Plan a just to run Azeez, Knibbs and Smith into the ground and hope they conjure something

Awful

I completely agree with this.

I can’t face the thought of watching us play anymore while Selles remains in charge. I am going out of habit and because I am worrying about us not finishing the season.

Yeah, it's getting a bit Incey.

Although I'm sure someone will tell us we've only lost 3 of our last 10 games soon, so we're getting better.

One Selles quote from post match I think says a lot about our problems:

"We are not there yet where we can dominate for 95-100 minutes".

I think that is genuinely the end game he is working towards, and we see 20-30 minute flashes of how it could work. Unfortunately, no team in L1 will maintain it for an entire game and it's also very rare in the Championship. You need a big, fit squad where every player is capable.

We need simple plans and plans for phases of the game where we're on the back foot. That's how you win games; you keep teams out when they're on top and score when you're on top. Trying a build a L1 Man City is a road to nowhere.

The guy is a deluded incompetent.

Nice sig, etc.

I used to think there was a decent coach hidden somewhere inside him. He sort of looks the part.

I don't think that any more.

[Sutekh]

Still hopeless.

Gareth Ainsworth is available.

Paging Nath to the thread.

Surely Selles must be close to throwing the towel in after todays news

I'm sure he's takiny an increased interest in potential job opportunities. But as long as he's getting paid, no point resigning until he has something else to go to.

I'd never feel angry with Ruben if he left us for another club. If I was in a company run like shit and in a bad financial position but a more lucrative company offered me a job on more money it'd be a no brainer to take it.

Selles owes us nothing and he's been very loyal and kept at it in what's been very hard circumstances.

Yeh this. He's been dealt a shit hand, but he's still getting paid for it, so why would he walk away for nothing?

Oh no, won’t resign but as you say must be an increased interest from him in leaving

" I need to reflect on where the club is heading"

Sounds like he'll be off soon

That's on the main RFC site too....

And it must be impossible to give him assurances. He's heard them all and they've all been proven false.

[WestYorksRoyal]

Sounds like from Earnshaw's less sanitised version, he's absolutely fuming and has lost all hope. I think he'll walk; it's good for his wellbeing and career, given his stock is high.

So when we start losing matches and don't have a manager, how much value does the club lose? How much more of a gap is there between Dai's delusional price and what buyers are willing to pay? This was Dai's chance to sell an improving team with a bright manager capable of going places, and he blew it.

Easy to see a doom spiral incoming, even if we somehow survive as a club.

"Must admit, was quite choked at Bearwood today. Listening to Ruben talk about how he has lost all hope and belief was a real punch in the gut. What have any of us got, if we haven't got hope? Hard to even think about the 90 minutes of football each week now. #readingfc"

We're fecked, we're gone, we're dead.

[Sutekh]

Thanks Dai you very naughty man.

[windermereROYAL]

I`m absolutely gutted for Ruben, he`s put his heart and soul into this club and been betrayed at every level. he`ll never be our best manager ever but fuck me he`s a legend in many peoples eyes, anybody else would have walked away months ago.
He`ll be gone very soon and some club will snap him that appreciates what he has to offer.

[Hound]

He’s clearly fuming. And rightfully so

Seems he’s as annoyed with Couhig basically acting as owner before the deal was complete as anything else
