We wont have a manager to try it out in training.

I know you seem keen to be a contrarian. But even if you have seen evidence to suggest that he is good enough even to be 4th choice, at odds with everyone else. Why considering our position are we replacing a decent 3rd choice midfielder with a 4th choice midfielder when supposedly going for promotion?

I wasnt having a go. It was a joke. If you think this players not only get into the play offs but do so with the dusruption of the manager leaving due to shoddy running of the club with 15 games to go then your faith clearly goes above and beyond.

O'Neil? Absolutely not.

I dont even feel that angry, just disenchanted. Does it even matter really? Whoever comes in is destined to fail in these conditions. I can tell you one thing. We arent going to lose Eustace, take the time to appoint a replacement AND make the top 6 with this team.

Obviously I want Eustace to say. But he clearly isnt going to. And you are happy with every manager while they are in situ so you dont deserve to do the I was right routine. If he goes, is that it for the play off push?

He would have had to buy out his own contract to leave, like Tomasson was expected to which delayed his departure.

Already eagerly awaiting chaddys list of Neil Harris, Des Buckingham, Ian Evatt, Garry Monk and Kyle McFadzean as managers that we should look to interview ASAP to keep our top 6 push going. And the annual review of our inevitable finish well outside the top 6 when it will be put down to Eustace's refusal to change formation and sign player x in January as to why we stumbled down the table.

I dont see him generating much. Some serious injuries and no longer a talented youngster. Certainly wont be Premier League interest. Pears for a couple of million is a hilarious hope too.

Kargbo was one of the players that had an impact. And clearly offers more than Hedges and Dolan, not that its hard to.But I meant across the team. We are a long way from that 6 game run where it felt like everything was done to precision.

You say see the project through. What project? Operation strip down every element of the club to claw back as much money as possible because the owners dont care.

Again the focus seems to have moved to Waggott and Suhail. 2 enabling cretins but the reason that this club has had any ambition stripped from it and has a team cobbled together full of cheap players, freebies and loanees is Venkys. Everything else is small fry.

The game has become immaterial because of the off field shit show. But it wasnt enjoyable. They could and should have had more in that second half. We had that 6 game spell where we knew the team, everything was perfectly well drilled and meticilously planned. Today felt like what it was, a side of cheapos cobbled together, constantly giving the ball away on a terrible pitch (thanks again Venkys). Toth is another Wahlstedt, an absolute disaster. Forshaw, less said about him the better. Cantwell is becoming more and more of a terrible signing. Kargbo gave us pace at last even if his end product wasnt there. Ribiero was steady enough. Dennis yes is unfit but his general demeanour is of a player half arsed, not up for the rough and tumble, definitely isnt a proper number 9. I certainly take no pride in not being thumped by the mighty Wolves at home.

If he goes. Who do you direct your anger at? The club for being enough of a mess for him to to go or Eustace himself for leaving.

Its not about being a charity. Its about communicating with a player prior to a point where he is left in limbo. Your judgement is clouded because you dont rate the player. I dont rate him either.

Its not a professional way to handle things. If we had any semblance of order, we should have known that there was a chance that he wouldnt have been registered, even if he had been registered by default he cant be in the managers plans. He could have been told that, and then the options are to actively seek a move before the window closed, the more likely scenario was to come to an agreement to terminate his contract, or he could even say no I want to stay for the rest of my deal in which case hes got no reason to complain.

They cant, not if they are released outside of the transfer window. A club outside of a transfer window can only register free agents who were free agents during the last transfer window, not ones released since. He could join a club in a country where the transfer window is still open, for example Scandanavia, but he hasnt got free reign. The fact that he didnt know before the window closed and we hadnt decided before the window closed is piss poor.

We could have told him prior to the end of the window that he was not going to be registered. Even if we rip up his contract. Hes very limited in terms of which clubs he can play for this season. Only ones where the transfer window is still open.

Youve shown frustration that we spent peanuts. Youve criticised the inability to sign players on longer contracts. You agreed that the timing of the signings and the time needed to get the players up to speed is a concern. There are a number of players (BTA, Schlupp etc) who you clearly would have preferred. Yet you think we had a decent window. Something doesnt add up.

Is the next round midweek again? If so, another attempt to ruin the FA cup.

He has been a waste of space, but hes not wrong to be aggrieved. To be told he wont be registered after the window (another disorganised mess) is yet more shoddy treatment.

Not as it stands we arent. We havent held up well. We have 8 points in 11 games.

"Defeatist attitude." Why does it have to come down to attitudes, defeatist, negative etc. Its not a counter argument.

Hmm, I thought surely there is no chance he goes to Derby. But if they are going to officially approach him, surely theyve had some encouragement. Either way, he is clearly not happy here.

He wont go to Derby, but theres no coincedence that hes linked to every vacant Championship job.
