  2. Not a good idea. Will be less support and noise from RRE which has got very successful recently
  3. Haven’t we started a few matches without him already?
  4. He wasn’t good enough but we offered him a new contract . He turned it down. How is that treating him badly?
  5. I’m not sure why you are misinterpreting what I originally said but it’s too warm to get annoyed by it .
  6. I get the heat bit but pressing for say the first 15/20 mins could well have brought a goal - and then it would have been the opportunity to be a little more conservative, whilst knowing that Dorking would open up more in chasing the game. It was a lack of bravery- caution is his default and his downfall.
  7. What I didn’t understand was that last week, with a pretty much the same starting line up, we pressed from the outset. Harrying their defence from goal kicks etc Yesterday, when it was clear that Dorking’s keeper and defence weren’t comfortable on the ball, we stood off! It’s this tactical inconsistency , errors in fact, that has helped push me to believing he has to go.
  8. But that doesn’t have anything with him changing his mind ! For goodness’ sake ….
  9. How do you know? He’s a succesful businessman and will have made difficult decisions before. Losing crowds, losing income, losing matches will weigh heavily and changing his mind isn’t losing face, it’s brave leadership
  10. I have changed my mind. It’s time for him to go. He d done his best I’m sure but it’s not going to get any better is it?

  12. Nonsense Lee Hughes was always on near post defending corners.and further up the ladder Harry Kane was always back defending corners for Spurs Tale a look at nearly every team and you’ll see the same.
  13. But if there isn’t one …,, You are convoluting actuality into theory. I humbly suggest you wait until a “creative midfielder “ is in place and then review his positioning.
  14. The two are not incompatible. Score when he’s in the box, if the ball falls to him there. Doesn’t mean he shouldn’t be pressing further back when the game demands it. It’s not binary
  15. I’d say it had the potential for a very good away day. Newcastle always good for pubs and food, easy Metro ride to the stadium , still be a new ground for some etc . I went in the FA Cup tie a few years ago (a Johnny Smith curler winning it) and although the ground is odd as it’s an athletics one, still one to be ticked off for lots. I’d. Agree however in that it’s going to be nearer 400 than 700. On tv and train strike main reasons.
  16. Can’t @oafcmetty tempt you to use your insight by joining the Prediction League?
