It’s his squad, his style of play, his tactics, his fault. Simple as!

It's 100 percent going backwards.
Lots of reasons for that, just sick of feeling despondent.

4 years in and having to do a massive rebuild. Thats the reality, its poor! We should be going from strength to strength with our stability but we’re heading the other way. We deserved to win today with the chances we created but with a league one defence what can be expected. Totally clueless!

Stability?
We just sold our best players and didn't replace them? As we've been doing for years.
Half our team literally just signed and probably won't be here next season.

How has he managed to convince people he’s some sort of tactical genius?
Because he’s young? Scottish? Miserable?
He’s no bloody genius and there’s plenty more out there that could produce the results we’ve been getting. Losing to supposedly shit teams, we can all do that.

Are we Neilly there yet? Are we Neilly there yet? (Repeat ad infinitum).
Point is you can probably deflect the blame for ever at a football club, eg need a stronger squad, but at some point you have to ask whether the manager is taking the club in the right direction and getting the best out of his team on match days. I'd say it is "no" on both counts with Neil.

The main reason is, lack of funds to replace the quality we let go.
Yes, if we had the same money as Man City's owners Neil might scrape us into the play offs.

And hopefully the manager will be gone with them.
Not if they've won the other 50%.😆

We haven’t though🙁
Yes, but my argument wouldn't carry any weight then would it. 🤣
Whats the record since January 2020?
We're above 13 teams in the division and 4 of them have sacked their manager.
Due to the uncertainty caused by Covid, more clubs are sticking with managers rather than causing more upheaval during this time imho.
I would guess that is also coming into PNE's thinking. Changing a manager in the current climate and with such a big player turnover would just be chaotic.
The situation needs to be assessed at the end of the season but in the meantime Neil is clearly staying.
