I can't take it anymore...

"better the joker you know" - very appropriate dazza!
 Sinatra played a comedian in the 1957 movie " The joker is wild ". No further comment!

King has lost the plot. When I heard he was reverting to 442 having played the bizarre 541 I felt a bit of potimism. However he spent all Friday night thinking how can I piss off the fans by fucking up a simple formation - I'll play three central midfielders.

Was this some kind of sick joke? My Granny knows nothing about football but I'd bet she would find out where the players play and play them in thier right positions.

I'd be happy for an internal appointment - at the moment our coaching staff have to go along with King. No one else in the stadium yesterday would have put Pook on the wing and very few would have started Cureton - King realised he had fucked up by making the changes at half time - how couldn't he see this at the beginning?

I know Woan, Reeves and Iffy don't have the contacts but they do have brains, common sense and the ability not to divide a dwindling support. I've never said it before but KING OUT.

[yeo]

Im afraid Kings lost my support now.

Leave now.

well we are not even playing our strongest team at the moment, so sort that out and it will be a fucking start. It's crying out to me that king doesnt even know his best team under the cicumstances.

I would drop Gurney, collins whalley and cureton  they just havent done it (although who has)  no one seems to be motivated. We have the squad to do well in this league but no one seems to really believe it out there.

i wouldnt mind seeing some youngsters come in to see what they can offer
(platt, wells, holgate) give em a go maybe, they should be hungry.

However when the forum does indeed pick their formations before the match, we dont have players needlessly playing out of position.

That's not entirely true dv85. For example you suggested Ifil would make a good winger. http://thetownend.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5190

Difference is I wouldnt all of a sudden start Ifil at right wing and drop Shakes and play Pook left back, Jack Smith in goal and Tom Heaton up front.

Apart from crossing he has the ability to play on the wing I think, try it out in training or in the reserves. Not staright into the first team ala Pook on the wings

Gary Megson has offered up his resignation. he knows he's fucked up, and has said if the board want a change, he's happy to go.


why the fuck cant king do the same? fair enough if the fans are behind the manager to pull through and start getting results, but almost every fan i've spoken to, and nearly every post on here, wants him out. a divided football club is not a happy one.

[sonicyouth]

King won't walk because he's such an arrogant cunt.

[Leggett]

i reckon because of his gout/arthritis/broken ankle, he's unfit for the managerial position. cya later kingy  


i fucking wish

[Sade]

Like king said at the end of his interview he is not going anywhere with or without gout too.

[I 8 Razor]

I don't think he's do an at all decent job, he has no real experience few contacts has shown no reason why he would make a good manager and he's got a broken leg.

I think he'd be completely out of his depth and a move like that would fuck us up competely, probably spelling the end of the club.

I would put money on us finishing bottom.

Reeves is a nice bloke, for his own sake I really hope he doesn't get the job 'cos I expect he'll do as well as Brian Tinnon.

Reeeeeeeves might have a broken leg-but King's got gout and that never heals!

[Spud]

Like king said at the end of his interview he is not going anywhere with or without gout too.

Because he wont get a fucking job anywhere else!.

[adje]

Fuck off Gurney-I dont want you,we dont need you.Get Jenks back in for fucks sake

[Johno]

im still a king in man btw, even tohugh i do think he does cock it up sometimes.

main problem is and always will be is that swindon will have to pay him off to get rid of him and in the eyes of swindon town as a business it will be a waste of money at this point.

[sonicyouth]

the cost of getting rid of King would be neglible, one of Devlin's final acts as chief exec was negotiating a rolling contract with King, so that if neccesary we wouldn't have to give King a large pay-off if he was sacked.

[Johno]

well, if that is true, then fair enough.

but now moving on a tad...who would people think we could get in realistically that would def do better?

Alan reeves in my opinion def would not, might do a job for this season, maybe... but problem is for him would be having contacts to get new players in, which is something we all know king is good at. be nice if we could have a change of management and keep king to do some transfers for us!
