If there is no marked improvement on Barnsley and what sounded like a shocking display at the start of last night then I'd have to go to the end of the month after Tranmere.
Unless we show some sort of marked improvement or have picked up at least a point and a win in the ldv then it's time to seriously consider the options.
However I think it’s still a bit early too judge the team and gaffer. Crap pre-season warm up, lot of new players etc etc......
At least the halfwit looks to have finally realised that to play a short, attacking passing game you require an element of width and to generate width you need wingers.
What may be his saving grace is King's teams have always been marvellously consistent at being inconsistent.
For every season he has been here at some stage he has presided over some shocking and embarrassing runs of defeats, an absolute barrage of abuse and burnt his bridges with sections of fans with unnecessary throwaway comments. While other boards would have long since decided his fate and given him the boot he’s then gone on to produce some inspiring runs of form that has taken us into the PO’s and a couple of near(ish) misses.
Perhaps not a great saving grace but as tempting as it is to scream for his head a little patience may pay dividends.

Pull yourself together Dave. We've had a whopping 2 games, there's still the matter of another 132 points to play for. That is all.

I have always thought this about us.Its the only way to make sense of a team that can beat good teams one week and the next throw away 3 goal leads against teams near the bottom. I'm not too worried at the moment, but the trouble with games like last night is that it gives the king out group plenty to sing about and we are only two games into the season.

I am very, very concerned by the way King said that hoofing the ball to Fallon is an option. NO IT ISNT. Why why why why why why why WHY etc does he not realise when we PLAYED THE BALL ON THE FLOOR we scored twice?! He is a moron sometimes.

The answer is obvious. Until his contract expires, so that we don't have to waste money on compensation.

Totally agree with that, the long ball game doesnt suit us, when we knock it about we can rip teams to pieces.

i'd give him till christmas, then if things are really that bad, near the bottom of the table we can bring a new manager to sort things out and gets us away and then have enough knowleadge of the players to build for the season after....
in my opinion though, king will probably be better than anyone we bring in.

All I think he means is hoofing the ball to Cureton and Thorpe is not an option but if the players resort to that at least if we have a target man playing then it won't be such a waste.

I think he's had long enough.....I'd prefer him to resign so that we can get in a new manager, but failing that then the Reeeeeves option will have to be gambled on.
I've got fed up of insipid clueless performances against, lets face it teams that aren't the world's greatest.

Option "R" Reg is not an option worth considering, in my opinion.
