SISU cannot afford to sack him, don't know what he earns but even if it is just 2 grand a week it will cost £400k.
JEEZ you think Magath would be the answer??
The young people need to lay off the drugs ?!....................... Felix FFS. SISU's clowns gave Steven a four year contract, one in a long line of terrible gaffs ! If they dump him, it equates to another load of dosh that could have been spent on improving the squad. The only fuckers who need to go are the incompetent hedge fund shagging everything up !

Sisu are cleve enough to have a break clause in his contract

Rosler is the obvious choice, done it in this level before and has a point to prove after being sacked by Wigan.
Riga I feel could be a decent appointment, I was impressed with the job he done in keeping Charlton up last season when they looked certain to do down under Powell and he was shafted big time this year by the owners of Blackpool. He'd bring a different style of coaching and fresh ideas as he is a continental coach and may be able to bring in a good player or two from abroad.

Boothroyd was not given long enough
nor coleman
nor dowie
Nor black
nor thorn
nor nillson
But the difference is we were playing ok with those in charge. Not saying they were brilliant, but if they were sacked why has pressley not been? Especially after watching repeated dog shit, why so inconsistent?

Are they? Not going by anything they've done since they arrived at the club they aren't.
1 day was more than enough for Hoofroyd, Coleman had his chance with a bit of dosh, Thorn was hamstrung and a tad clueless, I'd agree with the rest !

Actually felt sacking Nillson was the right choice, that squad blew promotion in a big way. The mistake wasn't sacking him, it was replacing him with a bloke living off a playing reputation, with zero experience!

Given their sacking record that is nonsense

We were doing ok until he brought Jim Smith in to help.

Peter Taylor anyone??? Or how about the Wasps manager sharing his job with us?? Might as well for all the lumping up the pitch we do these days!

They've got £2.88m spare now that their bid for the Higgs share was rejected...or maybe it's going towards the new stadium on Bullshit Island

So this is what we've had post-PL (it goes P, W, D, L, Win %).
Working on needing somewhere in the region of a 50% win rate to be in with a shout of promotion only Nilsson, Black and Robbins come close. You could possibly make an arguement for Dowie being given longer once SISU came in, looking at this http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/c/coventry_city/7240645.stm maybe Ranson should have paid more attention to what Dowie was telling him!
I'm not a fan of keep changing manager but equally something needs to change as we're in danger of dropping into L2.

I'd argue the bigger mistake was sticking Jim Smith alongside him.
You mean like Sir Clive Woodward??

Yes how is he fixed?? He'd be up for it!
They may be, but if so the break will probably be effective in the event of relegation. Hate to say it, but I don't think Pressley is going anywhere unless we go down to the 4th division.

RFC I have said several times that we need continuity at this Club, but let's be honest this calendar year SP's record has been around 17% (I think..) it's not good enough, the problem also is that the players don't seem to have the answers on the pitch, I like SP, he's honest, has a good connection with the fans and is passionate for our Club, but you have to look at today over 90 Minutes and think that something has to change..

Pressleys comments after the game that we should have won that game when we even didn't have one shot on target all game will definitely go down in sporting history, and no doubt will be in most "greatest sporting gaffs " book's this Xmas.
The one about " Webster played like an international tonight" in a JPT game against mighty Plymouth Argyle will also be in but from next year
He clearly has lost the plot and will need urgent medical intervention quite soon
