Would you give DW the sack?

[Macfarlane21]

He 's made some decent signings, he's trying to get us to play passing football, but the results aren't there. So would you give him the sack?

 

[metalblade]

How many more polls will be posted JEEZ

Until he has gone

 

[Patrick Suffaux]

The question should be.....why has he not been sacked YET?

 

[Ballinpigpubs13]

We should have a poll about if you think there should be another poll?

 

[BornOnShorehamStreet]

My answer is that he has until the end of November

Can I ask where you get the confidence to give him that amount of games? What is it that DW has done to date to get this amount of time?

 

[alcoblade]

I was really hoping (sadly not expecting) to log on and find he's gone.

I was up for giving it to Port Vale. I think we're going backwards now. Get him out.

UTB

 

[Silent Blade]

sack Weir then the club postpone the Coventry match due to the 3 call ups and this will give more time for the new manager to prepare for the Port Vale game (I will not be there as my family will be visiting my younger daughter at Newcastle University)

 

[yorkshirecoast]

He 's made some decent signings,

He's made 2 or 3 decent signings but most of the players he has brought in are worse than we had already

Than god Lappin's on a month. Mind you, if it's just match practice he's missing then what use is that to us? He looked woeful last night.

Why on earth have we not postponed the Coventry match? We are woefully short of quality so to agree to play without 2 of our better players - Long & King - is stupid.

It isn't confidence, it's just reality and necessity.

I want Weir to be successful as I like the concept he is trying to instil and it needs time to gel. We have had an influx of new players and they need to understand each other for the system to become internalised.

10 games is not enough time in my opinion and at the end of November there will have been 19 League games played. Only then do we have a chance to assess what is happening. If there is improvement in the play and we are moving away from the relegation zone then he can carry on for me.

If nothing has changed, or if there has been insufficient change, then a new manager will have a few games to get to know his new squad so that he can make adjustments in the JTW and there will still be 27 games to play.

We've had seven managers (including Carver and Morgs) since 2010 and I'm prepared to give this one a chance to prove himself.

If we're still struggling in the relegation zone at the end of November, even if we are a few points adrift and especially as we actually have some decent players now, I have no doubt that we will bring in a manager of calibre and have no worries that we won't rise up the division.

 

[KenMcnaughtsNuts]

Voted for give him 3 more games.

If he gets 10 points, then keep him.

 

[Darren]

At the moment we have 5 points from 10 games. Keep that up for the next 10 games and relegation will be a virtual certainty, barring some Bassett like miracle.

The team is showing absolutely no sign that they will get more than 5 points from the next ten games. After the Carlisle game I was for giving Weir 5 games with a minimum of 2 wins from those games. 3 have now gone and no wins. If he doesn't get at least 4 points from the next 2 games, I would sack him. Sadly, I think even a point from the two will save him. If he loses both, I think he will be out.

 

[ponteblade]

First half was the worst i have seen, but second half was a lot better, so put that into 90mins and everybody happy!!! Simples!

So if he isn't successful by November we bring in someone to fight relegation? I can only hope that he realises that when you push up 15 yaards on teams like we did for the last 25 minutes last night we can cause problems. If he doesn't then he's just an idiot. It's taken him 10 and a half games to get to something we would even consider a good performance. I want him to succeed, however he is not learning from his mistakes.

No, we bring in someone to develop the team to rise, Phoenix-like through the divisions!



The next games will show if he is learning anything.

Trouble is, you see, changing managers is no guarantee of success, as you know from the fact that Mr Weir is the 7th manager since 2010 and look where we are!

Keeping managers is no guarantee for success either. Ask Nigel Clough.

You don't just keep a manager because of what happened to the previous 6 either

 

[Patrick Suffaux]

It's frankly staggering that he's still manager as I type this.

Who's voting for three more games?! People were saying that three games ago. If we lose the next three will you be saying it then as well?

 

[blade too long]

The first half yesterday reminded me of a display on a boxing day , away at port vale
Eleven players who looked like they needed a sat nav to find the opposition half, they seemed to believe that they would catch hepatitus b if they touched the ball, some sauntered about playing at being shaun the sheep, staring at grass and going baa, inept doesnt begin to cover it
Get shot of this clueless numpty before its too late, its Martin Peters all over again , my grandsons child minder does better motivation

 

[Harry's Game]

Yes, we got lucky last night Crawley should have been three up at half time, and if Cuvelier hadn't got injured we would have not made the change that got the midfield going.

We will be relegated if we give him until Xmas as some want.

Martin fuckin Peters it's worse than that he is Robson Mk2 but worse, at least Robson was shite in a higher division.

Seem to remember similar thoughts in the mid 70's and a few seasons ago - still got relegated

If all we did was repeat "things had happened in the past." nobody would ever get any where.

Any how, I get enough of that at home thanks!
