Whatever the contentious views about Hemmings not supporting the management in the transfer window, AN has to be the sacrifice. This has the similarities of Simmo. Players under achieving, tactical ineptitude. Etc. Actually AN’s purchases have not been that astute. Moult, Darnell Fisher etc. Sleepwalking along like this until the next transfer window is not going to change anyone’s fortunes. Need a manager change quick.
Appleton possibly. He did a great job in lower leagues and not bad at WBA. But change is needed. Thommo can provide continuity on the coaching side.
 
Too knee jerk for me.

As I said on the match day thread, I don't think replacing AN with a mediocre championship manager who doesn't know the players isn't going to help unless AN has lost the dressing room.

If/when that happens, then perhaps.
 
I wish it was as simple as replacing the manager but i dont think it is. The club, right now, is rotten to the core and Im not sure theres a way out right now.

It would help if someone came in who could organise the defence and actually play the best players in their correct positions. Neil has done nothing but sabotage the team tactically this season, on purpose or not. As proved today and last weekend, we do have goals in the team.

I think ‘rotten to the core’ is a little extreme.

If we had signed one of the strikers we had gone for (will lose out on players it’s pet and parcel of the game) and not lost the two lads on the eve of the season we’d not be in half this mess. Also losing our best player for the last three games doesn’t help.

For me it’s the manager and the lack of confidence he is installing in to the players that worries me...
 
For me I’d give AN 2 more weeks, results obviously have to be better but the performance is devoid of anything we can build off.

Most championship managers would have accrued more points with the squad that we have, tactics are becoming more and more bizarre.

We need a reset, back to basics approach. Ever presents Barky, Clarke and Gallagher aren’t capable of doing the job we need from them. We have younger talent waiting in the wings, let’s use it

Agree we have goals, AN is inept at organising us defensively. Mick Macarthy for me is a short term fix but that right now is what we need to survive. Ive said before id take a risk on Cowley at lincoln, hes similar to chris Wilder and i bet Sheffield utd are glad they took a punt on him.
 
With no quick change relegation is a certainty. Of that I am sure. A new manager is best choice in the current situation.

I got shot down for this last time i mentioned it, because hes a decent local lad.

We need a full time and decent goalkeeper coach and quick.

A good keeper coach also knows how to drill the defence.

+1 on all 3 points …. pointers towards problems rather than evidence of total badness.
losing players has been a factor but that is why we thought we were aiming for a stronger squad this year.
Pearson's loss again is noticeable.... but why cant we find other battlers in the squad?
Or others prepared to run through brick walls for the team... turn it round on Tuesday or time for change
 
If he starts Barkhuizen ahead of Barker again against West Brom I’m sure there’ll be plenty of fans wanting him out before the game even kicks off. We played well once Barker and Johnson came on today, so let’s hope he finally knows his best 11.

Disappointed with the result but after attending today I’m honestly more positive than previously. There are signs of life. We were excellent for a long spell in that 2nd half and bossed a good Sheff Utd side after a dreadful 1st half.

I don’t think we’re too far off a recovery looking at that.

AN has to show some bottle and bin Clarke off though. His jogging on the 1st goal is a disgrace and he along with a few other experienced players are currently letting us down.
