Bielsa was amazing for then
Sorry, yes that was my point too.
marsch bad and a twat
Bielsa good and a twat

They sacked an “amazing for them” manager and replaced him with someone shit and started them on the managerial merry go round that has seen them have 4 more managers since.

No they were poor second half v Ireland and awful against Greece
Interim manager trying to fundamentally change the style of play in a hostile media environment. I'd give him a chance. Might play okay with the fan base too. Any foreign guy I've never heard of with 'good data' needs to hit the ground running or it will be a bloodbath.

Well the 3 managers including marsch ultimately got them relegated. So they may aswell have kept bielsa, and then Farke managed to make the play offs with one of the most expensive squads in the championship. Fuck a doodle do

Simms out for Bassette if not fit.

Go for it. No faffing around the back.

Put Eccles in there when available and that’s the best 11 currently at the club imo.

First requirement for any new manager would be that they want to play attacking football in that or a similar formation, with largely those starting players.

who actually cares?!

actually kind of hope we lose the next few to force King into a decision, rather than pissing about with Interim coaches who fluke the odd point here and there.
Chin up, lad. I felt like this when we sold Darren Huckerby - a few weeks later we signed Robbie Keane!!!

...then 30 games later Keane left and we got relegated, but, you know... chin up! ;)

Just me hoping we win, regardless?

Reminds me of the SISU days when people wanted us to lose or go bust to "stick it to Joy".
Honestly, people should have been awake to how close we are to those days before they jumped on the Robins out bandwagon. Lose to Sunderland, bring in a new guy nobody has heard of/likes - start with losses to Sheffield United, Burnley and Cardiff and things will turn proper toxic. The wrong appointment here and King could easily undo all the good work Robins has done over the last 7 years.

We aren't close to those days.

No it's not just you Nick.
In fact I've only heard one person say they want us to lose.
If you think some of us are travelling 200 miles hoping we lose you've lost it.
Though win, lose or draw, I'll still think Kings a c**t.

oh right.. how close are we to playing at St Andrews and having a fire sale of the entire squad?

we’ve sacked a manager it happens - could quite easy go the other way round. You’re not gonna be one of these people going mad if we start shooting up the table are you?

We absolutely 1000% won't make play offs this season or next. I'd bet my house on it.
