And who exactly do you propose we get to replace him? How many managers do we have to chop and change before fans like yourself realize that doesn't work?

Fucking hell, we literally have neighbours down the road who were dogshite for several seasons under their current manager, but they stuck with him, now they've been challenging for the title the last couple of season.
Neighbours pay big wages and fees to back managers.

We won't even back proven winners let alone someone who's best signings have came from the fucking J-League.
 
Finished 5th, but OK.

I like how 5th whilst binning off the cups and a couple points ahead of an in crisis Chelsea who sacked their manager is being used as some odd marker of great success.

He started incredibly well, we've then been absolute crap for about a season and a half. Tonight was embarrassing on a number of levels and we have more tough away fixtures round the corner after an inevitable shitfest against Brentford. But happy clap away, I'm sure it'll solve all the obvious problems.
 
Okay game finished, time to post my thoughts on that.

First time I've been furious with ange since he was hired.
He just stood there with a blank expression watching fuckin timo Werner cause all sorts of havoc for us...not Coventry..us! Same goes for Frazier Forster, put him out to fuckin pasture. Don't want to see either of those 2 again, cancel timos loan in Jan, rather give the time to yang min and Moore

Worrying display from bentancur and sarr, those 2 have been shite for so long now

Happy for Spence.
Kulu continues To show his quality , he and maddison the only players we have with a crumb of attacking technique

Brenon Johnson I feel sorry for, the abuse must be heavy because he didn't even look like he enjoyed that goal. But it was quality strikers goal, excellent run and exquisite finish worthy of top class forward.
He's never gonna be a winger in the regular sense, but he has a forwards eye

We won which is a relief but pretty annoyed by that :ange-confused:

Moving the ball a bit quicker won us that game - should try it a bit more often, Kulu helps that in that middle. Sometimes just bundles the ball through a tight defensive block, which is very effective when we have runners.
This is what concerns me. We won by the players abandoning the slow boring build up and playing it quickly and into space for BJ to turn on the afterburners. We probably won't see this again on Saturday.
 
We got out of trouble tonight thanks to Brennan as we would have lost on pens, however as glad as I am that we won there needs to be serious questions asked about that performance, still its a results game and hopefully that win could be the turning point for Ange, bright points were Bergvail and Gray look the business, hopefully Moore gets a chance to shine now with the Injuries and we kick on from here!
Not sure we would have lost on penalties, 9 out of 10 times the fitter team wins and Cov looked pretty tired that last 10-15 minutes while we perked up a bit.

Oh hang on, Forster in goal.

As you were. Sorry.

:ange-pray:

I admit Woolwich were Bad, but never as bad as we've been today.
 
I've been grumpy all game. But I am of course happy with the win since it means that we are still in the competition.

I won't be watching the Brentford game live however. I ain't bringing negative energy to my niece's Christening.
