Potential replacements for Robson

[shorehamview]

The list of managers people want here seems to be growing. Let's analyse them.

Ince - why? Miserable moaner.
Davies - neither use nor ornament.
Hoddle - I don't know what we anybody did in a previous life to deserve this pillock.
Speed - does anybody think Robson would really be stupid enough to go out and find his own replacement? No experience.
Allardice - hoofball (TM) specialist.
Keegan - hahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
Dalglish - bought one title, done nowt else.

Any more candidates? Most if not all of the decent managers are either doing well or won't come. Who really would want to come to a club where the fans are on the manager's back?

 

[S64 Blade]

The fans are only on his back though as he is useless and has proven that continually.

Ince - why? Miserable moaner.

wasnt warnock?


who would you have then SV?

 

[S64 Blade]

Can be as miserable as he wants as long as he can turn the fortunes round at the club.

 

[Foxy]

Ince - why? Miserable moaner.

wasnt warnock?

He's always whinged... he did and has however got one of the best track records of promotion in the game... unlike the inexperienced Imce.

Ince MAY be an outstanding manager, he MAY turn out to be useless.... are we really in a position to try/risk that, especially with the way the fans act/react?

 

[keenzy]

well he cant be as bad as robson, id rather gamble on ince than stick with robson at the moment. hes done a good job at the clubs hes been at, granted they have been lower league, but with more money he could do well.

 

[silverfox]

Why would any manager want to come?

Booing all the time.......... personal abuse?

Even McCabe will be thinking why bother after being surrounded by a baying mob.

Why would Ince come?.......it looks a great set up at the MK.

 

[keenzy]

managers would come with money and the team we have.

the booing wasnt there when he first started, it was when we couldnt beat the likes of 10man blackpool at home.

more money here than at mk dons, could offer him more and its a bigger club.

 

[Foxy]

Exactly what people said for years about Warnock.

the booing wasnt there when he first started, it was when we couldnt beat the likes of 10man blackpool at home.

He was getting slagged off pre-season at Worksop and over in Ireland.

Whilst Robson definately isn't working at the moment, he's highly unlikely to be replaced whilst AT LEAST the end of the season and even then, theres hardly any realistic options guarenteed to turn us around.

The booing started well before the Blackpool match as everyone knows.

I don't think he would come......perhaps all these great managers are sat on a shelf waiting to be bought.

Sadly in real life it's not the case.

 

[keenzy]

blackpool was an instance, i know it had started before.

managers can be bought just like players, no use waiting for them to come on frees if your in dire need.

And if we sack Robson (meaning we continue paying him) and give Ince a fortune to come in and he doesn't turn around the season? What do we do? sack him and buy another and have 3 on the books?

Are you Risdale in disguise?

 

[keenzy]

or do we keep with robson? loosing crowds and money that way? spiralling towards relegation? we still have parachute payments and all this off field activities we have invested in should pay robson off.

and i highly doubt that ince could do any worse than robson.

Thats all well and good, but you didn't appoint the bloke, nor do you hold the power to sack him. You don't know who he has lined up in the transfer window and you don't know whats going off behind the scenes. You don't know if Ince would come, nor if he's ever been talked to.

Many people said that if we stuck with Warnock we'd never be promoted and he'd ruin the club, it didn't happen that way did it?

I agree with you that something has to change and at the present time Robson is failing at doing so, but i'm not sure sacking him/paying him off and paying someone else as inexperienced as Ince is the right method to take.

In my mind its absolutely clear that the board will not remove Robson from the position until at least the end of the season unless he does something really really stupid or totally out of order. McCabe has never been a trigger happy kinda guy and the Blades we see today and solid base we all moan about being wasted has been made up by continuity and not chopping and changing staff every few weeks.

As bad as everyone thinks it is, its been far far worse just in my time as a Blade and rarely can I remember a time when people have been so impatient and venomous. What happened to supporting a club and not acting like spoilt brats/chanting the name of the oppositions manager when we go a goal down? Even the usually so cool Stead/Hulse are clearly being affected by the pressure, how about giving them a lift rather than booing them for missing?

 

[keenzy]

on the flip side you dont know if we arnt talking to ince.

i agree that he wont get sacked till the end of the season, but if we loose to the pigs i think that could be the final straw for most fans. if we drop into releagation i think that will be it for him.

the people said we never get promoted with warnock o.k, id rather have them saying that than we look like getting relegated with robson.

as my uncle keep saying, its been far worse but the club as a whole has been crap. now the club has come good why have we still got to be crap on the field? were paying so much of his wage, why shouldnt we have a say in it?

not everyone was singing about warnock. cant stick everyone in the same boat with that.

 

[silverfox]

were paying so much of his wage, why shouldnt we have a say in it?

Like we do in every other walk of life??

 

[keenzy]

we get our vote in who we want in charge of the country,

 

[S64 Blade]

Not much to chose from though is there

 

[silverfox]

we get our vote in who we want in charge of the country,

So we should vote after every match?

And listening to our "fans" it would be very interesting to say the least.

Have you listened to some of them?

 

[keenzy]

yes, and some of the fans have good points.

we dont have a vote every saturday for the country do we?

 

[silverfox]

Actually every pass maybe we need to take a vote.....some round us would say so.

Which "fan" is right then??

Who should decide??

Exactly thats my point, as neither of us actually know the chances of getting Ince in, we can't really just say "Sack Robbo, bring in Ince".

The problem being, its not as simple as just wanting to not be crap on the field, especially when we are in a transition period as we are now. Who knows, we might have been better keeping Warnock and keeping our style of play/ethos, we might be top of the league, we also could be failing like we are now.

I never said we shouldn't have a say in it, but ultimately the board and chairman make the decisions. In the past, they have made the right ones. No amount of 50 strong car park protests are going to force their hand in sacking the man they took on, these decisions are done behind closed doors and with far more knowledge on the situation. I have no problem what-so-ever in people having their say in matters, it just annoys me when they let it become more important than supporting the club.

I know full well not everyone was singing about Warnock during the game, because I certainly wasn't. A large proportion were however, and in my opinion it's far more negative and detrimental to the club than any decision Bryan Robson made on Saturday.

 

[silverfox]

yes, and some of the fans have good points.

So some......... and who decides which some are right?

 

[keenzy]

everyone i have talked to in person has said robson to go and they spot the same things, need to get the ball down the wings and balls into the box.

the kid at work says it, clients say it, they all say the same thing.


think we need a vote on the refereeing decisions, some have been dire!

Bloke next to us talks total crap all match.....is it his choice too?

 

[silverfox]

Everyone is saying things need to change......

Personal abuse and supporting the away team manager is not the way forward.

Up The Blades!

 

[keenzy]

what happens when the 50 turns into hundreds then thousands? do we still keep robson in?
people have been supporting the club, but when they get performances like that they get annoyed.

Wasnt really a large proportion singing it, a few idiots on the back of the kop in the corners and a few mingled around. sure i sang warnock give us a wave after the match, he was at the helm for 7 years.

 

[keenzy]

i dont know what that bloke next to you has been saying but everyone around us has been saying the same thing.

Thats for the board to decide. I'm not impressed by Robson in the slightest, but what is out there that is really worth spending all the money in sacking him tomorrow and getting a new man in? The board will have already summed up what they think is the best option with more information at hand than us. If it works, they'll have been right, if it fails they'll have been wrong. But ultimately it's their decision.

It's all well and good getting annoyed and I completely understand it, all i'm saying is, a lot of it is very counter productive and in my opinion not the actions of someone who genuinely supports the club.

I beg to differ, far more people were singing it than the number that went to the car park afterwards. No matter how many people sang it, it was totally the wrong thing to do and did absolutely nothing to help us do what we all should have wanted... to come back and win the game.

No problems at all with singing for Warnock before or after the game, but after his team has just scored past us and we should be trying to lift the players is totally out of order.
