dont get me wrong, Hurst is a huge risk.......but hes worked with the chaimrna before, knows the club and can come in and hit the ground running It's an option that's very much on the table, put it that way.

Our main issue isn’t even results. It’s the complete borefest that’s served up every week. Centre halves at wing back, a holding midfield player who can’t make ten yard passes, and no intent whatsoever to play out from the back.
Either ditch this never ending 3-5-2 experiment, or start playing it properly with genuine wing backs and ball playing midfielders.

I really don’t like Hurst, but I think he’d transform the club if he came in. And that’s what it needs.

Chelsea fans got bored winning 1-0 every week As opposed to losing 1-0 every week.

I would have:
Northwestman as Owner Inspector Swan as CEO Grizzly as DoF Pilch as Head Coach (as long as Bowman plays as RWB)

I may be wrong but with Northwestman cast as the Chairman of Bury in the Netflix drama about the demise of Bury wouldnt it be a conflict of interests if he were to become owner of Shrewsbury Town FC.

everyone knows these figures but when you look at them they are pathetic
in 27 league games Salop have scored 3 goals 2 times have scored 2 goals also 2 times and 7 times theyve scored a goal
16 times out of 27 games theyve failed to score a goal
its the worst in the football league and no nearer to getting better. Now I dont care who Moore has bought in, whoever coaches this negative football needs to go

Jose Mourinho now available It would be very interesting to see if he could do anything with our present squad. Often wondered if so called top managers could hack it in the lower leagues maybe as a goodwill gesture to give something back to the game. A real test of his coaching skills but suspect he would not do any better than what we have already got.

it might not be great but here we are in mid January 3 points from mid table , hardly any mention of relegation , I mean let's bring in a new manager , lose the next 2 games and suddenly be in the drop zone
It could happen , I still won't be moaning ,Just observing and giving opinions , I'm not bothered either way , I support my club and back the guy running it , whatever he does I'll go along with it

The season is currently on a knife edge, within touching distance of mid table but also to 21st so could go either way, but form, playing style and statistics all point that we should be looking over our shoulder with trepadation. PS I agree a change of manager is no guarantee of success, but continuing as we are seems a sure fire guarantee of failure.

I am surprised 40% have voted stick with Taylor.
He said judge by Christmas, for me that judgement is it's time to go, worst style of football in my memory, worst goals scored record in the 92, same playing budget as last season but a clear regression on the pitch
I've said it several times, but I really worry if we stick with Taylor, we will go down

Granted I don't expect many of them to win games at will, however Cheltenham & Wigan have improved a bit of late.

We've signed players of lesser quality, likely on less money, it's a perfectly acceptable league position, but that's not even half the story. The turgid style of "football", the fact we're regressing and the fact we've failed to score in 16 out of 27 games is quite frankly embarrassing and simply unacceptable. For that reason, I think plenty wouldn't be disappointed if Taylor left; however I'd remind them he's merely a puppet and a fall guy for this toxic regime.

I'd love to be proven wrong, but I have felt our league position to be false all season (i've gone in to more detail of specific games where we have got points we didn't deserve on other threads). If I was a betting man i'd be thinking we will be bottom 6 and within touching distance of the relegation zone in 2/3 weeks time. A consistent league position of 12-15th over the last few months was never going to last...

Of the teams below us Wigan, Cheltenham and Burton are all better than us. Reading are only below us because of a points deduction. Carlisle are spending money well, they’ll be better in the second half of the season. So of the teams left the only one who is actually worse than us right now is Fleetwood, and I’d say we’re probably on par or maybe slightly better than Exeter. If you go through all our games back and gave a summary of a fair outcome of each game, we’d be on 20 points at best. There’s a lot of wins that we didn’t deserve that we’ve got. It’s also quite sad that whenever we play any decent side away from home there’s literally no hope of getting anything from the games. Just a general acceptance of what’s about to happen. We’ll lose by 2 or more goals on Saturday, it’s not even a bold prediction to make anymore.

My biggest worry about Taylor being sacked is that Moore will simply default to Bignot. It's a long time since he had success at Solihull (2016) and since then he's had a CV that you wouldn't want a prospective employer to look at too closely. that you wouldn't want a prospective employer to look at too closely.

You’ve got to hope that our chairman having an apparent controlling nature might actually be our saving grace. He might decide he can’t take this anymore and take matters into his own hands, sack Taylor and appoint a more proven coach to get us out of this mess. Bit of a long shot mind.

You haven’t even acknowledged any of the points made. I also said we’d be on around 20. If it’s any bonus to MT I think we should still be in the FA cup
