If things were that bad he would have been fired by now regardless of cost. Evidence? League Two football next season and he should have walked the very second it was confirmed.

Hes now just taken them back up so i think your theory is a bit flawed concerning young managers learning their trade.

We should have been out of sight by then, something was wrong off the pitch and nothing has changed. Have lessons been learned from it?

Being honest never gets you any friends but here goes again I don't want him as the manager of my club from the moment we went down, does that make any further lessons past or future clearer?

This comparison's been made a few times. Warne was relegated with Rotherham team punching above its weight in the Championship. We were in League One for two decades...

Shit man maybe even looking forward to playing some different teams. But we are now a smidge further away from the championship and somewhat better football also.

I agree....now Last few seasons I’ve been unbearably underwhelmed when the fixtures are announced because we’re playing the same shit teams in the same shit league. This coming season we’ll be playing different shit teams in a different shit league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking forward to playing Sunderland. I was looking forward to Wycombe Away - a few beers at The George in West Wycombe and then walking over the hill and down to Adams Park. it’s sad that I may never see Eoin Doyle in a Latics shirt again. I don’t like it that I won’t be adding Accrington to my ‘Away grounds that I have seen Latics play at’ list. However... There is Tranmere Moss Rose There is Forest Green as a new ground There is Morecambe as a new ground too Swindon on the train Exeter’s crappy away terrace Hmmmm?

Is it just purely football where you expect a manager to walk and not be pushed after he has failed? Or would you expect any Tom, Dick or Harry in the "normal world" with mortgages etc to pay to just walk and screw themselves over? You also said the players shouldn't be trying to get a better deal or play higher up, they should right their wrongs and stay here. Where in life do people not look out for themselves and try and get the best deal they can? Cloud cuckoo land if you think footballers are any different to normal working folk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
