Cheltenham didn't look that much better than us, again its a poor standard in this league and if we can take some chances we will be comfortable.
It’s if’s and buts Sedgwick, you could go on all year with that mindset. The facts are we’ve invested more than enough to be expecting more than being ‘comfortable’ if we improve, and we’ve had the worst start to a league campaign in the clubs entire history - he’s assembled his own squad as well and still can’t muster up a win.
Anyway, he will get Tuesday now I suspect as you say. It’s a must win, but I fear that after a steady performance and a point we’ll be saying the same about Walsall as well.
I agree, we should be expecting more than being comfortable... but we finished 21st last year, there's not been huge investment and people still think we should be top 3??
This year we need to do better than last, mid table around top 7 should be the aim... but we need a proper experienced manager in who can start to build something. This team could be useful, but never under this manager.
It’s all ifs and buts.
For me you should be looking for a continuous direction and improvement under a manager.
Currently he and his side aren’t demonstrating either.
You mean like 8th to 4th
I thought we'd be mid table and had low expectations, I do expect us to improve from 21st and it has been a poor start but sacking him now is not the answer. You do that, you start all over again, new manager, another squad change in January which may or may not work and another whole load of threads about how refreshing the new manager is before soon afterwards slagging off every word he says.
I’ve given my backing to the manager and again on Tuesday said we should see where we are after 10 games, the next 2 home games give us a great chance to get the win and hopefully build.
Have we gone in the direction either I, you or anyone else would have hoped so far this season - no.
He’s got to be realistically looking for at least - at the bare minimum - 3 points from the next 2.
Nobody gets anywhere by a constant cycle of sacking, there’s glaring issues that the manager has though - his clear aversion to Maynard and playing 2 upfront is the main crux for me - not playing maynard and playing someone like bowery - who sadly is more akin to a donkey than a footballer baffles fans who’re trying to give him the benefit of the doubt.
Individual errors under his stewardship haven’t aided his cause.
