The club have really messed this up. For the first time in a decade the club is finally in a position to make a real attempt at getting promoted out of this division. Eustace leaving for Derby was a comical blow to the clubs hierarchy. January was the their first opportunity and they failed spectacularly signing cast offs from relegation threatened teams, unfit "marquee" signings and loans for players that don't get a look in at League One level. Despite this, somehow we still sit in a play off place. 2 wins on the bounce probably had these clowns drooling at the prospect of saving huge money by appointing Lowe but a spectacularly poor showing away at Swansea put an end to that. Instead of going all out and getting the best manager available (or unavailable, further lack of ambition highlighted that they won't move for a manager in work), they're bringing in a cheap, incredibly underwhelming appointment which could very well end our play off hopes but also, is highly unlikely to bring about a serious swing in season ticket sales in the summer. They had a chance to really go for it, get Cooper in on a short term deal and see where we go.

What a shockingly shit appointment that is.

Warner or Ismael? Christ But if we're paying poor wages, we'll only attract poor managers. Norwich fans saying they were in the playoffs largely through individual talent bailing him out, rather than him being a good manager. Ismael not really done anything since leaving Barnsley. Putting a gun to my head and its Wagner but both are uninspiring, cheap and disappointing choices.

So, we aren't taking our time over the appointment, we are just cheaping out on the salary and therefore can't attract anyone. What does Adam Owen taking a bigger role behind team affairs mean? And why is he doing it? What the fuck are these clowns doing?!? 🤡 #VenkysOut

I've defended Hedges a bit in the past but he's been really poor this season (and probably last in truth) but yesterday he was abysmal. No idea how he made it back onto the pitch for the 2nd half. Can't hide from those stats though. Awful.

Probably not anymore.

Not good really. Kargbo and Buckley made a slight impact when they came on but faded quickly after. Dennis didn't do anything of note, anonymous really.

One of the worst performances we've seen for some time. Dreadful stuff. So many of them are playing badly.

You don't reach 60 years of age, with an entire career in the game, 25 years in coaching to then suddenly become a successful championship manager. Standard though, interim guy does well for a couple of games and people call for him to get the gig full time. Rarely works out.

Jumped in the car for 5mins at 0-0, got out and it's 2-0 FFS! Hed better make some changes at half time but I highly doubt he will do.

Ouch! Millwall with a 95th minute winner! He basically got us to draw enough games to stay up last year but he won't be able to do the same this time. Hull picked up an unlikely 3 points away at Sunderland and Cardiff and Plymouth grabbed a point apiece. A bad day for Eustace.

2nd game running Lowe has picked a starting 11 which hasn't been too popular. It worked last time but a Dolan/Hedges/Weimann attack isn't particularly threatening, can't see it paying off this time. Also, our "significant investment" signing still not getting a look in. Woodrow also staying rooted to the bench.

Back injury apparently

Massive bonus that it's not Karanka, would have brought the whole fanbase down (or the majority at least)

The club has loads of money? 🤷‍♂️ (at present) £40m+ brought in and hardly any spent, they've also just received £750k for the manager!

Imagine a Dyche led Rovers beating Them Lot in a playoff final. Dreamland just for the banter.

😲

Yeah, really poor list.

Fairs

Difficult to see it any other way, absolute sabotage of the season. They are of course, also just picking the cheapest, most desperate yes man they can find, one who will be happy with zero budget and players sold from underneath their feet. Obviously not a long drawn out process with the best interest of the club at heart, just further cost savings and less boat rocking. Shambles.

Would be a dreadful appointment

Do you expect anything else from our shambolic set up? I'm half impressed they've been able to contact people for an interview.

According to TransferMarket they spent £75m in the summer, after selling Neto and Kilman for £60m & £50m respectively. I don't know how it works at Wolves with regards to signings and perhaps the signings they made were just poor which is why he struggled, but to say they spent no money isn't quite right, although admittedly, we are in the Premier League and what does £75m but you these days? (Madness that I'm even saying that)

Could have been a decent player but just plagued with injuries, so he's not really going to be missed. Feels like the club handled this badly though and it clearly agitated Eustace when he was here.

Indeed they are:
