I turned it off!

I turned it off!

I totally get that in the midst and emotion of a bad defeat against a rival like this, people might not agree or understand this point.

But which manager is going to come in and be backed by ‘Mr Hemmings’ to make us better than what we are now ?

This isn’t me saying Neil is doing well. Our home form is a joke and personally whilst I rate him as a coach I think he has lost interest.

Look how improved Blackburn are tonight with an improved squad. Preston North End are totally happy with treading water and have been since we finished 7th in 2018.

The result of that is the situation we are now in. Best players sold and more good players refusing to sign, cheap and panicky recruitment and a mediocre squad of players, under a fed up manager who appears to not be that bothered anymore.

Sadly I can’t see anything other than relegation battles for the next few seasons, regardless of whether Alex Neil or another manager is in charge.

I honestly don't care if it's a "worse" manager than Neil. Just someone who can inspire a bit of passion in a local derby would be an improvement.

I'd even have Grayson back. That's how desperate I am.

That’s how it feels at the moment, but it’s easy to make knee jerk calls after a bad home defeat (again). Our record in Derbys is very good under Neil. Merely looking for “passion” just gets you someone like Phil Brown.

I just want someone who will get us playing again, whether that’s Neil or someone else. But I don’t think anyone will manage it under the current club/recruitment structure, which is making it impossible to improve.

Like any club I’m sure we have some sort of idea what we’d do if Neil left. Clubs often monitor coaches now like they would players. Probably not us though lol.
 
Turned it off after 35 minutes. Didn’t even take the red card and penalty. We are going nowhere.
