This forum must be the only place the relative managerial merits of mourinho and thorn are up for debate. Perhaps we should have a poll as to who is the best? Some will say thorn!
And I could argue that the time Thorn spent as a player meant he's been in more dressing room talks than Mourinho has. That wasn't the point though, the point was the guy's previous job is irrelevant.
Saw it, he said we dominated them first half and he didn't understand how we were bottom of the league.Anyone watch TFLS and hear what the Derby Assistant Manager had to say about us? The Thorn-bashers would do well to listen very carefully to his words.
perhaps the question should be;
If an experienced manager had been at the helm from the get go would we still be in this dreadful position?
Perhaps the question should be, what is the point in the constant haranguing of Thorn as manager?
After all he's all we have!
The point is we are bottom of the league and all the players he scouted are crap that is why we are in this position Sisu please show some balls and sack Thorn.
Well, I don't know for certain which players Thorn scouted, nor the constraints he was put under regarding his suggestions and who he was allowed to sign, maybe you do and can educate us all?
His job is beyond anyone's capabilities.

Anyone think John Robinson' posts are very similar to BANTAMS?
No BANTAM can barely form a coherent sentence, his posts usually consists of 1/2 words or 4 if he is stretching himself.Anyone think John Robinson' posts are very similar to BANTAMS?
So he didn't scout anyone of these losers then? Just what does Andy Thorn do. Sisu sack him and bring in Bobby Gould.

Hi Moff.
I really don't get this tactically naive "Bandwagon" that some are jumping aboard.
We are outfootballing most teams we play against.
We are losing by the odd goal, in most cases, after dominating the game.
So, how can our tactics be wrong?
I see it as individual errors, rather than Tacticts.
And the lack of a real goal scorer, And thats Sisu's fault, not Thorns, No i can't see a lot wrong with the Tactics Moff, I really can't.
respect...Tank Top.

How about bringing back Roland Nilsson? Im not sure if he is too expensive for us atm but he could probably turn things around. He did very well in Malmo FF where he won the league championship and also finished off FC Copenhagen at 1st place in the Danish league before the winter break
Tankie, as ever an eloquent post.
I personally have not jumped on the tactically naive bandwagon, I am just saying it as I see it, and I appreciate like yourself not everyone agrees.
Yes we have played well, yes we have lost games by the odd goal, but thats my point we are nice on the eye with no penetration, and sadly keep losing games.
He seems unwilling to change formations when needed, played an attacking loan player as a holding midfielder, seems unsure on how to change things when we go behind, doesnt seem to use his subs effectively, and we lack any sort of fight to come from behind.
I honestly wish it were different but cant help feel Thorn is unable to change things and perhaps we should see if someone else could. Clearly SISU and others view it differently and as ever I will always support the team and Thorn whether I think they or he are up to the job or not.
Respect as ever, Moff
Not to mention the walking wounded that wouldn't be on the pitch at any other club. But we're going round in circles a bit now, repeating the arguments from a few pages back..guess this happens with all these huge threads, people can't be bothered to read them all the way through.
