Defeat tomorrow and he won’t see Monday lunchtime (as we will definitely get beaten up by Chelsea as per normal)

Yeah I think you might be right. The manner of possible defeat matters, and our injuries are bad, but I just think the losses to Ipswich and Palace are poor reflections.

If a change is going to happen, it's got to be in the next fortnight, so that anyone being considered has a chance to think who they need.

We are simply too easy to beat and that is the biggest issue, and cnut club could really hammer us.

Projective nonsense, he isn't getting sacked even if we lose the next 3 matches
 
That would mean 8 defeats in 16 league matches

You think that would be acceptable?

Obviously not but I don't make the decisions.

As I said he'll need to stay in the cups and if we're floating around bottom half later on in the season with 0 progress then he'll deserve the chop.

Anything else right now is wishful thinking.

Sorry

Any manager of a club of our size and resources should not be losing 8 out of 16 matches under any circumstances , that's bordering on relegation form

It's a hypothetical at this point and likely won't happen but if it does , there should be only one outcome
 
A lot of moaning going on about injuries and tiredness on various podcasts and elsewhere. While i dont believe in tiredness this early in season (march,april yes) players like porro, udogie possibly leggy alright.
Forster new in goals.
Centre halves are new in position.
Gray has replaced porro in european games at right back and udogue at left back.
Our midfield has been rotated as have our wingers. No way are werner, son, johnson burnt out.
Gray needs to be used in midfield
Spence needs to be given a run.
Lankshear should have started up top sunday for physicality and work rate alone.

While options are weaker there are things we can do to rotate a little more without seriously weakening starting team.
We do need left back cover though

Cool, that's your opinion unlikely to be shared by the board that's all that matters.

I think context is important anyway, losing our next 3 if he has half a squad and a fuck load of injuries just simply cannot be blamed in him for example, losing with a full squad or perhaps key players on the pitch can be blamed on him.

He should really be only getting the sack if he's lost the dressing room and the players stop running for him which as far I can see hasn't happened yet.

Also wanting him sacked after a poor run is fine but are people really thinking about the alternative scenario of Ryan Mason until the end of the season, just what do we get out of that? Do you really think we're gonna be able to pluck another manager out of a club mid season to come and work at a club who have just sacked a manager during a rebuild process?
