This season has been totally unacceptable, I can't see Wilson lasting much longer especially if we fail to win next week but i have no doubt that he won't be here next season, How could Fitton possibly keep him on? He's failed his objectives just like Malpas did and he got the boot and Wilson will too.

There is no-one else to blame, Today's comments on the radio by Morrison summed it up for me "There was no desire" Why wasn't there any desire? That's down to Wilson and his motivational skills or lack of.

We can't put 2 wins together and it's getting beyond a joke now.

I personally quite enjoyed the season up until 3 seconds into the play off final.

Charlton was quality night and obviously past march.

Not all of us, someone us stuck up for Paynter from the start and could see he was a very good player.

Was he though? I'd see he was an average league 1 striker for 2 seasons*, and a very good player for the best part of 1.

The fact that the two strikers brought in aren't living up to Paynters last seasons isn't that surprising.

I think Wilson spotted this and tried to spread the goals round the team. Rose the free kick specialist. Prutton. Caddis as an attacking full back.

Problem is that perhaps due to this the team is leakier than a sieve. Even against Charlton where we totally dominated we conceded 2, 1 was fortunate and the other a near carbon copy of Bournemouth's winner. Another 4 shipped in 2 games Sad

Just my opinion like.

Turn off our television sets, go outside and do something less boring instead?

Got back a while ago (I live in Manchester) and can;t believe what I witnessed today. Oldham were crap, absolute dogshit and so were we. That was a huge 3 points dropped today. If we can't beat teams like Oldham when they are there for the taking... then forget it. We showed no desire to play at all.

Smith had nothing to do - except pick the ball out twice and Alan O' Brien should of been taken round the back and shot after about 5 minutes  Suicide. Rose had a shocker and nearly redeemed himself with his free kick. Austin was completely isolated with no support.

I know many said that DW had to "keep a winning side" but if Dougie played from the start, we would of been writing about a win as Oldham were poor and it would of suited JD completely with his style of play. One shot (I think) on goal in 90 minutes is terrible for a team that have aspirations of play-offs.

Don't get me wrong there were positives with Prutton running his socks off, Caddis played well and was a shame Frampton went off when he did as we seemed to of lost the impetus after he was subbed.

Rant over. Any chance of a refund? Hmmm Hmmm

I was accosted by Samaritans on the street in OT last night....I tried to explain to the bird I was with, that they'd probably forsaken sitting behind a phone for a more up front approach, because this statistically is  Suicide prime time.

""The top teams are getting consistent results even when they aren't playing well. We have to offer more going forward, but we weren't able to make any more changes after the hour as we had used all three substitutes - but that happens in football." (Danny Wilson, 7/1-11)

NO SHIT??

You made the three substitutions, remember??

Attention whore!

No one ever leaves - just ask sonicyouth, arriba and Fred Elliot...

After taking in your suggestions I've come to the conclusion it would be pointless to go outside and read a book, its dark

Wilson tried to replace him, we've signed strikers - it hasnt worked. I would have liked to have seen us bring someone else in when it was clear it hadnt worked.

We at least tried to replace Paynter (who most thought would be easy to replace) unlike that other dude.

Last time, we didnt over achieve last season - we achieved.

Under Malpas we were 18th in L1 and out all the cups by late December. Now we're in January under Wilson we are 18th in L1 and out all the cups. Yet failure seems more tolerated under Wilson than Malpas?


Dave's post is completely spot on.

The next couple of weeks are going to be fairly defining in where we go from here in terms of results, transfers in and out and who's in charge.  The board has some decisions to make on all of these counts.
