I dunno I'm asking. Bearing in mind he's been given the long term wankers such as storey Lindsey Hughes Brady Potts whiteman

Shit like Thompson smith valatin vukcavic lukovic to deal with cheap fucking players who are all wank
Worst goalies I've ever seen at north end.

Lowey was a gobshite that's undeniable.
This fellas more solid with a CV that pisses on loweys.

Maybe with better payers he's do ok

But last week after a few good results whiteman has been fucking amazing this season 😂

Hecky has extended deals for Storey, Lindsay, Hughes (twice if he gets his new deal as Hecky wants), Potts, Brady. Can't remember if it was Lowe or Hecky who extended Whiteman by 3 years.

His fault for extending the above if he doesn't rate them. Then compounding this by his signing Smith, Thompson, Walton.

His own fault.
 
For me though there are some fundamental issues meaning that if a takeover takes place we part ways.

-Preference for 5 at the back.
-Slow to make tactical or personnel changes during poor form.
-I believe the treatment of Small has been poor.
-Safety first approach.

Perhaps the most important factor is I live in hope new ownership have ambitions to be better than we are now.
If they are Hecky wouldn’t be appointed. He was appointed by us and had been in talks with Plymouth.

Well Hecky is the manager. If he doesn’t want to extend them why is he here and why does he play them.

Story still plays ahead of offiah at RCB.

I'm not here to score points just pointing out it's not as easy as one thinks. Maybe Lowey and hecky are as tactically shite as one another. Maybe that's a fact. In fact I fucking DETEST five at the back, I am a the greatest Alex Neil fan boy amongst other things so I hate the wanky depressing approach to football by overloading your staring 11 with the worst footballers you can imagine in order to pretend you're being progressive and challenging the orthodoxy.

Ridsdale drives most the shit we face then these managers do well or poorly off the back of it. And has ever been thus
 
I dont think 4231 would make any difference under hecky, hes such a negative manager our wingers would become wings backs after a few weeks of playing it.
His back 5 isnt working with the sided centre backs not willing to bring the ball out and committing an opposing player. Consequently rather than our wing backs sprinting forwards when we have the ball they end up running back the centre back to make the pass easier. I dont know why he hasnt been playing offiah much, he's the only one thats willing to bring it out on occasion.
Then we have a cdm coming to collect the ball sometimes behind the centre backs and then we have 7 players behind the ball. Its the dullest football ever. It wouldnt be so bad if they passed and moved into the space, but they all stand still apart from alfie. We have nothing to play for at the minute and theryre still not willing to take risks on the ball.
I actually think we have some decent players this season, but if he cant get alfie, moran and dobbin to string more than 2 passes together he can go for me.
 
Thought it was interesting seeing Hecky after the game. Normally whatever the result he goes to the STFS stand and applauds the fans all the way back to the tunnel.

Today he just walked off after the players in deep conversation with Peter Murphy.

Still survived though, whilst under Lowe we would have ended the season in the bottom two IMHO. BTW, I’m only comparing PH with RL.

Can’t argue that we survived but we should never have been in that position in the first place. I came to despise Lowe, and wanted him gone as much as anybody. However, whilst we all felt he’d get us relegated, we don’t actually know that we’d have ended up chewing our fingernails to the bone in the last game of the season. It’s pure assumption.

This.
Others have played far worse and not been bombed out the team.

If he doesnt do that, Small's confidence doesnt drop and he doesnt slice it vs QPR.
 
Suspect it’s going to be a very painful end for Heckingbottom. Can’t see him getting another point and listening to him tonight, I think he knows that as well.

His injury bullshit will also come back to haunt him now Whiteman’s done. Even tonight claiming maybe two, or one, could be back for Wednesday. Brady on bench unable to come on is the only possibility.

Watching Thompson chug around as we get overrun will be horrible. The manager has completely run out of ideas and simply has to go.
