Wilson Out

[blinkpip]

We beat Bristol City on Sky. We played Huddersfield off the park at the Galpharm when they were top. We destroyed Bournemouth 4-2 in Lee Peacocks first game.

Play off final was last season has fuck all to do with this season.

Neither is Iffy shitty time in charge.

If the play off final has fuck all to do with this season (and presumably Wilson's ability as a manager) then what the fuck has performances under Iffy got to do with anything.

 By far the wisest post in this debate has been made by young Tails....

That putting in the odd good performance and still losing wont keep us up.

Just to be picky, we played Yeovil in Lee Peacocks first game.

No we didn't. It was Bournemouth, I remember him getting a debut goal.

Just to be picky, you're wrong.

call me what you like - but we should have got rid of him about 5 weeks ago.

That's as maybe but we didn't, did we? So it seems to me we now have two choices:

1) Get behind the team and show the new signings they've come somewhere where the crowd appreciate and will back good performances/fighting spirit (and are willing to unite behind that). Which may or may not work. If it does, we pull out of the shit; if it doesn't, he'll be gone by the end of March (and we'll be doomed)
2) Continue to call for Wilson's head and utterly demoralise the new signings who'll be wondering what the fuck they've come into. It certainly won't help improve performances/results and could conceivably make them worse by demoralising the team. That may have the "desired" (by some) effect of getting rid of Wilson sooner, but I'd guess only by a couple of weeks than the scenario above and will pretty much guarantee we're fucked.

Of the two, I'd rather take a punt on option 1 and hope that a show of unity/Wilson's genius/random good luck can turn things round and let Wilson's future be decided in the summer. Because I don't see anything good coming from option 2 to be honest - it may result in change eventually, but I think now that change would likely come too late.

I was in the Wilson out camp - only just mind - a couple of weeks ago because we looked dreadful, not ability wise but between the ears and in the heart, but Saturday and last night were much better, and I firmly believe Charlie going has lifted the place massively.

I'm now right behind Wilson again. He's technically a great coach - ask the players - and has a good relationship with Fitton. Get Benyon firing, Lucas fit and some depth upfront and out wide in the loan window and we'll be 'reet. Then cut our loses on some of the duds - Rose and Pericard come to mind - in the summer and go again, with the budget and backing to have a real push once more.

If we survive this year I can see a great season ahead next year....can we have a fast forward time button?!

 Bazza has struggled with the ignore button....still no harm in asking.

An open goal from an error if I recall correctly.

Can we have an "ignore this season" button?

I didnt say anything about not supporting the team or booing everyone and everything or anything like that.

Just dont think he's the man for the job anymore and hasnt been for a while. This season is a failure no matter what happens now.

Yep, doesnt detract from the fact that, that was a quality performance and we still went down.

Aw I was just playing the memory game... and I won (in the game in my head, go me).
