I've my thermals and extra thick socks ready for tonight so I for one are hoping that the Town really put on a show tonight to warm me up, with a win at the end of the night of course  |

Like many on here i've been trying to figure out what this season is all about. It reminds me previous two, its two in one, in the first half of the season we are in a point or two from one of the weakest top 6 in recent league history and as a result expectations are raised and fans start to dream. Then downfall in performances and results against bottom half sides should cause frustration and build pressure on SR. In previous posts i said we are bottom 8 side by our performance and the way we get results. So why the top half is so tight this season ? In the next 8 games we might manage to get only around four points, which is 38 pts after 33 games, bottom 5 could be. The reason its tight is to allow us to catch up after managerial change in early March and to finish in play offs to win promotion at Wembley Since Jan 25 we've got a draw and four defeats in league. SR said " Fortunately i've got contacts all over Europe". I'm sure they will help him to find a new job soon. |

Its not that formation change has helped us to win at Bristol, i think we could beat them using any shape cause they are a really really poor side. What we need is managerial change , formations and systems dont win you games |

Last season it was tight at the bottom and in this campaign its tight at the top half which means with some improvement we can push for play- offs but i dont think we can do it under SR and its really disappointing that we will have lost almost two seasons while he is at the club. After all we are not by chance the second lowest scoring team in the league After Bristol game SR has vowed to learn lessons from the recent poor league run. Does that mean that he hasnt learnt lessons from last season? So he will start learning soon, how long will it take? And why he wasnt doing it before. As it took me years to learn reading performances and results i suspect SR may never learn why he works so hard and it doesnt bring results. After all we dont need to wait untill its too late |

After all we dont need to wait until its too late When he does learn though he could become a very able manager and he has a free get out of jail card this season with not too many additional points required, so a good opportunity to learn. I say let him get on with it, he has a good supportive team, and I don't mean just the players, and no sign of any dissent in the ranks. Learn slow=learn well. |

You don’t have to learn from real situations, dealing with real people, under pressure and with the constant need to keep looking ahead. Congratulations on the accuracy of your prediction. It doesn’t make you right. |

Whats the difference between successful and average or struggling clubs?
I think the most important is
1. Right appointment
2. Clubs ambition
3. Budget
In my opinion there are four types of appointments
1. Right manager at the right time, C.Ranieri at Leicester, C.Wilder at Sheffild Utd
2. Right manager at the wrong time, M.Rob
bins at Coventry, K.Jackett, usually success comes second season
3. Wrong manager at the right time, P.Hurst
4. Wrong manager at the wrong time, J.Askey, S.Ricketts, never succeed, only after leaving

The WUM only criticises and never praises when the team win. |

Last season FA Cup and corona helped SR to keep his job but not this season. When he came he said it would take 3 transfer windows to build a team. Its his fourth. Hopefully he will prove me wrong. |

I expect to see an improvement in performances and results this season. I think it has all been a bit of a learning curve for the manager since he arrived and a new formation will see us score more goals. Its a big season for our strike force especially Jason Cummings who with a pre season behind him should be lasting full games and getting twenty goals. Pleased with the new management team and if the new signings can step up and challenge for first team places I think a top half finish to the season is a possibility. Also pleased to see that we havent spent silly money on players like Grigg and Docherty. The only minus is not having Toney in the division to help us or else I would be predicting a play off spot.

Blimey, we haven't kicked a ball in anger yet and it's the same old negativity from the same old poster.
I honestly expect us to progress further up the league over the coming season. A few more astute signings and I think we could surprise a few people as well as the bookies.

The Autumn budget will start to pay off the ‘Corona’ debt targeting the rich 👍 |

Most likely we'll keep getting good results in cups but in league i think Bristol Rovers defeat was a beginning of the end for SR, could be the worst run of games for us in December. A point at Pompey is always a good point except at the start of the season as they tend to struggle a bit. Relegation is unlikely but this season i see us bottom 6 while SR is in charge. |

Come on, please. This is an unprecedented time for all FL clubs and one game in and you are already writing us off. Serious question, are you really a Town fan because you have clearly got it in your mind that the manager must go, come what may. |

Very inappropriate to continue this thread whilst football is on it's knees because of the virus. Should be giving the club all the encouragement we can and not being so negative. Unless clubs can get crowds in soon, for some fans there may not even be a club to go and watch. |
