If he is only on a short contract then I think we should try and get someone else in. Kenny Jackett would be ideal but I doubt he would drop to League 1.

Would like another continental manager in if possible. Someone that will make the players train proper hours.

Surely good news, if there's a chance we can get rid of him we should take it.

League One isn't complicated. Our most successful managers have been those who have kept the players out of the pub and running in circles for hours.

Fair play to him for leaving a fairly secure youth job at Villa to take over our misfiring misfits on a short term deal.

All very well people wanting him out, but who could we attract with our likely poor financial position next season?

Can't say I am looking forward to a full KMac season but, hey, give him a chance to fuck up with his own team

I'm pretty sure he had already left Villa when he took over here.

Did not know that.

He can fuck off, then

When he was hired, weren't we told he was on a 2 1/2 year contract? I remember being very surprised we'd offer such a lengthy contract under the circumstances!!


Also, not really sure it's fair at this stage to start thinking of other managers! I won't repeat the plethora of debate that we've been over on these forums a million times, just feel we can't really judge KMac till after the first 10 games of next season.

Was nice to see him responding to the crowd at Brentford also. A bit more of that wouldn't do him any harm!! Will be interesting to see how he can do on a budget next season.

I don't really want us to give him the chance to fuck up.

I probably imagined it… but I swear I read an article in the Adver where Jed said we already had a budget for the Championship and one for League for next season.

Didn't realise he was on a short term contract.

Not sure that I want him to go, as I don't think he's had a fair crack of the whip.

But, he's been a bit Maurice Malpas and Paul Hart thus far.

I suspect this is why we've not had the answers to those questions yet..... they don't know the answers themselves yet.
