Alan makes some great points here and I fully appreciate what the board had to consider at the time of appointing him. However, I'm also worried that board members still do not see what the rest of us have. They were warned back end of last season about McCarthy but continued to blindly back him over the summer. His record is abysmal and as bad as the stats are - they only really tell half the story! Have the board still not realised (like everybody else has) that this club needs better? I said his on another thread, he should have been shown the door in the Summer, the club now have allowed him to use up the budget and the 130k Sam Hughes money. It would be embarrassing on their behalf to sack the man after 4 games, as it shows they have gotten it wrong, but we cannot carry on with McCarthy, he will send us down without a whimper. |

problem is Jon thinks there is nothing wrong he's not all interested with our winless home form as long as we are winning away he dont really care You don't really actually believe that do you? I'm not supporting the guy but I can;'t believe that he isn't absolutely desperate to get a home win. The way he presents himself to the press doesn't tell the whole story. |

What's your source for the board allocating all of the Sam Hughes transfer money to this year's playing budget? As poor as our form carried over from last season is, calling an EGM to get the manager removed after four games sets a dangerous precedence, especially as we don't know what targets McCarthy have been set by the board. And you have to consider how that looks from the outside, would Marcus Bignot be in such a rush to manage a club where regardless of the discussions he has with the board that are elected to run the club, there's a chance the fans may just call a meeting and have him sacked? Hopefully they'll do the right thing after we lose on Saturday and Monday. |

Hopefully we will win on Saturday and Monday! Unlikely I know but would rather this as it would calm everybody down and give the players confidence.

I've had that mindset for a while, Superman, up until Saturday, where it became obvious that he has lost the crowd and it's going to take a near miracle for him to ever recover, i.e a really steady run of decent results for the rest of the season whereby we finish convincingly mid-table and play entertaining football, and I don't think he is capable of that. Even if we win both games convincingly this weekend, as soon as we lose a game or go on a poor run the knives will be out. Therefore by keeping him on I think we are just delaying the inevitable. |
