We're getting out of this league a lot quicker than 4 years.

Re: wilson at city. We all know what happened when he left and they gave Tinnion the job.
Reminds me a bit of England, post Sven. You only realise sometimes that someone is doing a good job when some one much worse comes in and fucks it up very quickly.
And Hartlepool since Wilson left? |

So honestly would you be happy with that? Four years in this leauge never quite being good enough to get our of it?
I'm not sure you would be. I don't think i would be, and I'm pretty sure the board wouldn'y be.
Maybe not, but our level does seem to be league one strugglers/league two at the moment, if we sustained a decent level of football we'd inevitably go up, build a fan base worthy of Championship football and gernerally be better than rushing things through. If we're not careful we'll be too poor to not get out of this dividion. |

Not really a good counter argument as Tinnion was completely out of his depth, Johnson came in having inherited a seriously poor side....Hoofwood, Grunt Sniff, anyone and at first struggled...by mid December they were in 23rd a point above us. He turned it around got them to 9th and it's been progress since....we off course went down. That's because Johnson is a decent manager....Wilson still has 10 games to turn us around, which will show whether he is a decent manager. |

Jonhson was allowed to ship out the underacheivers and rebuild his team a little. Some of Shitty fans wanted to get rid of him after about 10 games as he had made no difference. i don't tihink they had a seriously bad side when he took over.
How mny people could really have said he was a manager good enough to take them to the edge of premiership football based on his record. It's all a matter of opinions and taking a gamble.
Us having another manager for the 99th time this season doesn't seem much point.

The reason Shitheads wanted out was because he lost something like 8 in a row, after taking over. Which put them down to 23rd. But it was this process that enabled Johnson to identify the problems and do something about it. Whisper it quietly but the fella down the 420, also inherited,by all acounts, a bunch of wasters. Shipped a couple out, brought in a few lads from either reserve teams or the scrapheap, and lo and behold they improve. As things stand Wilson just hasn't managed the resources available to him very well...we were 18 th when he took over now 21st. Still time to prove his worth.... |

because im a nerd
Anthony McNamee - 0 goals 8 assists
Andy Monkhouse - 8 goals 4 assists
Sofiene Zaaboub - 0 goals 7 assists
That would be McNamee-20 assists if we had a forward that could head the fucking ball! |

I dont think Wilson is the main problem- i think it lies with the backroom and coaching staff.
Fitton seems incredibly loyal to Byne- this could well cost us our league one status. I honesty believe if Wilson would have brought in his own staff we would not be in the position we find ourselves,
Rubbish. The reason we are in here is a combination of shit players, poor manager at the start of the season and the fact that it took 6 weeks to replace him. |

I wouldnt go that far. More like that would be McNamee-20 assists if his crosses were good every single time rather than 1 in 7. |

Given the past few years I'd be quite happy with those kinds of league finishes. They'd be up there with some of the better seasons this club has ever had. |

As was said in FourFourTwo, Wilson is hands on with the training now. If something is wrong in that respect then he is as much to blame. Maybe this is why he's never felt the need to have the same backroom team. For all we know Byrne and Williams collect the cones and nothing more.
The same magazine said Malpas didn't really handle training, so your point would make more sense with Malpas perhaps.
What did Malpas then, besides bad interviews? |

Yes Id be happy with that, very happy. Given our crowds and financial strength relative to the division we have no divine right to expect any more. |
