Recent results very ordinary, so Farke needs to turn around quickly. But...we are still in the top 6, so he deserves at least some level of patience surely? Comparing him to the Marsch...who had no idea whatsoever!....is embarassing to be honest. 🙄
Gnonto should have been a penalty, one of many bad decisions we’ve suffered. Would have been more than happy with top6 to Jan1 2024

Stone wall penalty that one and a sending off.
Standard of refs has been shocking in quite a few of our games.
Would have been happy with top 6 if it hadn't been for the fact that we have had a few opportunities to claw back points off Ipswich and bottled it which is hugely disappointing.
Think you have hit it on the head with the last sentence, Rev. The expectations hit the roof because we were looking the goods to challenge for top 2. Okay, we have fallen off that pace for sure, and disappointing no doubt. But we are talking like Farke is going terribly, and we are now fighting the relegation battle again!
Away form is very disappointing true but to call time on Farke is way to early imo. Hes done a great job ridding the club of lazy money grabbers, rebuilding and giving fans hope again. I back him all the way ufn 😀
Should we put billy on the naughty step for starting this thread
Away form isn't just disappointing, it's costing us dear in terms of places in the playoff cohort. As for "ridding the club of lazy money grabbers", he's done no such thing. The majority of those who deserted the sinking ship at the end of last season have done so on a temporary basis, still cost the club at the least a proportion of their wages, and have done so little to impress at their adopted clubs that they are likely to return at the end of the season (if not before!).
We have had good results, especially against teams who are aiming to compete for the game, as opposed to parking the bus and hitting us on the break when we appear toothless and without any kind of guile used to break stubborn defences down. Those good results aren't sufficient to maintain our league position, and there appears to be no response from Farke in developing tactics that will increase our winning ratio.
In fairness to myself, the post was made in the rawness of another inept defeat.
I watched it in the company of a scum and scouse supporter, and I could feel their smugness burning into me.
I still stand by it, but if we rodger the brummies up the bull ring by at least 4, then I’m happy to be wrong.
There was also alcohol involved
Farke has two very strong promotions on his record in recent seasons, we've been a bit crap in recent games but to just bin him off already would be lunacy.
That said, it does worry me how poor we look so easily against teams that just come with a plan to disrupt, we demolish teams that try play football but that's all.
