He last managed six years ago and was desperate enough to go to Cyprus for a job. Long since rumoured to like a drink or twelve. That's just a name out of a hat.

Although I believe in allowing for revision of a standpoint, the rate at which you do is worthy of highlight and question so let me just put this to you:"Whilst I’m not exactly leaping around at the appointment.... give the guy a fucking chance! Jesus." Indeed, that is one of your many contributions to this forum in the days after the appointment of Bunn. Ultimately it is for you to decide your own definition of giving somebody a chance, a fair crack of the whip, and clearly you're happy to ask for drastic change after a eight-game run - or 16 league games in total - which you're entitled to do. However, I submit that with your impulsive reactions and record of altering your opinion you are very much part of the problem. You're not alone, of course; this forum is full of similar types and they, too, help contribute to our unstable position. There are too few examples to be offered that can justify the sacking of a manager after 16 league games and only to find themselves in a healthier position come the end of that season once a replacement has been sourced, nor has Bunn, who you might recall I raised immediate doubts about, been given ample chance to improve a club clearly destined for more years of struggle. A summary of the problems: 1. We appointed Bunn in the close-season when more preferable names were available 2. The running of the club has deteriorated to such an extent that I struggle to name a possible candidate who would take the job 3. Money is tight - if not non-existent. The weekly envelope has not been guaranteed for several years Ordinarily I would expect a newly-relegated club to aim for an immediate return to the division they dropped out of, but who can articulate a case for this? When you evaluate the state in which we are, I believe you are left solely with hope. Bunn lacks a lot, but I am not nervous or fearing a season over which we are consistently in the bottom six or seven. As others have stated, he does have the players' respect and that should see us right come May. Not exciting, not something to cheer about, but it is the best case to be made. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my view people have given him a chance...16 games does indeed represent giving him a chance... its a third of a season. Not impulsive. Having said that, I reserve the right to change my mind again. If we win three or four on the bounce I’ll be all... “Bunn in!” . Football fans are fickle. So what? I’m sure you have been impulsive in your life (I would certainly hope so). I’m not going to try and trawl through the forum to prove you have done so here, that would be pointless and childish. It’s only football. I’m not changing my mind over anything important. Oh and plenty of appropriate candidates would apply and take the job... very naive to think otherwise. The question is not who would apply, but who would be appointed. Edited November 4, 2018 by kowenicki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could have avoided the inconvenience of a League Cup final, 4 FA Cup semi final games and winning the second division in the last minute of the season and been where we are now years ago.
