Sack Wilson Talk Is Ridiculous

[Rich Pullen]

Tails you are a glass half full kind of guy and I agree with most of your sentiments. But surely our current situation isn't acceptable is it?

[Batch]

Had a beer or two Batch?

Almost literally. I don't get out much these days :|)

Tails, to be honest I COULD see Fitton saying fuck it and walking.

End of the day the bloke said he was staking his reputation on Maurice Malpas. Hardly heard anything from him this year, other than contract/sale speculation about Simon Cox.

Hope he doesnt. But, lets face it, the bloke will be humiliated if we are relegated.  

Could be back to being the STFC we all know? With the future all up in the air, nothing guaranteed. And to be honest, fucking good. 12 months was plenty of players without a care in the world, saying 'the futures bright'. Because its fucking bollocks, if you dont care and you dont work hard then you are going nowhere.

I don't think that AF will feel humiliated if we go down, I just think that it will make him more determined. He is a very successful business man after all.

If anything I think that if we go down then he would be ashamed by walking away because it meant that he failed and quit, has AF ever quit on anything? (I actually don't know the answer to that).

He may be a tad pissed off but he will stay, he does have deep pockets after all.

We're playing a lot better under Wilson, and it isn't his squad. We've all been quick to judge teams in the Premier League for chopping and changing and this is no different. If our fans are honestly calling for Wilsons head come the end of the season I will lose the very little faith I have in the clubs supporters. We seem to expect too much too soon.

In all honesty I can see Fitton saying fuck it and walking, and then we'll really see what he's done for the club. We need to get the mindset in that we're a small club with a shit load of problems that won't take a year to fix.

I agree with this.

As fans we do expect too much too soon, but are we wrong for expecting this team to stay up?

[THE FLASH]

Fitton made two mistakes.

One big one in appointing Malpas and not getting someone in sooner.

Now i am allowing him to put it right....we have improved IMO but not getting the points.

Stick with it now.

But getting points, is kinda the point of managing a side....if we go down then Wilson will have failed, it's that simple.

 I can't see how rebuilding would be easier than stepping into taking over a side that was not doing great, but was at least in 18th, with a job description of getting a few wins to move up the table.

I agree with BR that I don't see AF walking because he feels humiliated, I think if anything he'd be more determined to turn it round, if he felt the fans were with him. I AM getting increasingly concerned that if the mouth breathers on RS texts/the Adver site don't tone it down, the board may just think "Fuck it, why are we bothering? All we get is shit" and then we really will be in the poo. Make no mistake, there's going to be 30-40 clubs over the next 2-3 years who will stare down the barrel of extinction - there were enough clubs in a perilous state before the recession hit. We were fortunate enough, having been in that position already for 5-6 years, to have found a white knight to pull us out of it just before the recession hit. I'm very worried that a few loudmouths could drop us right back in the shit and drive out the kind of stability most clubs at this level could only dream of

You are right Paul. But Radio Swindon need to start editing these texts because at the end of the day you could have 10 teenagers with free texts sending 30 texts each after the game. On sites like this, where people are actually a face behind a screen then its a different story isnt it?

But on the other hand we need accountability. Its starts at the top.

Do the players feel accountable, I dont think they do.

I know what you are saying but i just dont think this is the right time.

I think you've pretty much summed up exactly what happens on RS texts and on the Adver comments section. Or at least it was like that a few months back, I'm assuming it hasn't improved, I haven't looked recently. Life's too short.

But on the other hand we need accountability. Its starts at the top.

Do the players feel accountable, I dont think they do.

Yes, that's the conundrum isn't it? Nobody wants to stop fans having their say, just be nice to see a more balanced set of views on some of the more visible ends (RS/Adver). I'm sure if they were asked, they'd just say they can only air/print what they get sent and if it bothers us that much, we should all sit texting obsessively as well.

Surely better to act at the end of the season, and give the new man a pre season, than chance Wilson repeating his failure.

[Berniman]

Are you going to be able to replace Wilson with somebody more capable in league 2?

At least give Wilson a pre season and a run of games with his own players!  Maybe you want the job Reg?

I'd imagine Wilson will be kept on even if we go down....just don't think he's the man for us.

He fucked me off dragging McNamee off for Smith......just plain silly.
