[Yak]

Yak, my sincere apologies if my post personally offended you, in no way did I intend to do that. Upon reflection, the use of the word 'want' wasn't disrespecting our fans in any way and sorry if you read it like that. I suppose I could have and should have worded it better. It's all about personal choice and thoughts, which, should be respected no matter how anyone may view it differently.

It goes without saying that you are in the super fan bracket with the travelling you do, and may I say, pay costly for watching the Millers like you do. We've all witnessed some damn god awful performances this season, Huddersfield being the latest and yes I was there.

I based my reply mostly on some fans want Hamshaw sacked and now. I get it's all about the here and now and losing 7 games on the bounce, which in itself sounds atrocious and completely unacceptable but, can you honestly say he's been dealt a good hand with what he's had to work with this season? Personally, I don't feel he's had a good set up to work from.

Hamshaw doesn't come out of this squeaky clean either. His recruitments, if they were totally HIS choice?, have brought nothing to the side.

Hall - can be but isn't always committed, Etete well what a complete waste he was, Sherif looked the part but a crock, T.Holmes looked an amazing signing on his debut then?????? and finally Martha. What anyone sees in him I don't know and I wouldn't miss him if he never wore our shirt again. I can't fully comment on if they were solely his signings but he's got a very limited budget, he's new to this position and will learn from his mistakes.

What Hamshaw inherited apart from 3/4 players is a pile of crap that have offered very little and we all know who they are. Can't wait for the season to end in order to offload the lot of em.

Going back to my previous comment, I know it's not good to see our team beat week in week out but, we've have had everything thrown at us this season and don't get me started on the injuries. I've never ever seen or heard of any team, suffer with as many players out like we have this season. Who's to blame for all that? All this has created an awful season so far, Hamashaw's the Manager so sack him, however, what will that achieve?

Again my apologies to you if you felt offended as that was not my intention. I respect your points and views and we will differ on how we've seen this season unfold and what it has delivered to us Millers but, that's football for you. It can make you happy, sad, frustrated, elated and a host of other feelings such is the pull of a game to us Miilers.

Appreciate the explanation Brin it was a long day yesterday and I probably overreacted tbh.
My issue is that supporters of MH dismiss concerns from others but don’t often post anything apart from injuries have killed us. They have and I agree he’s been unlucky to a point.
It feels like any other manager wouldn’t get the support from some it’s almost cult like no rational just blinkered support.
He’s not helping himself though with what most would agree is the wrong system for the players we have. He’s coming across as stubborn/arrogant in his approach.
I don’t think he’s the right man for the job however the next couple of games are ***** for us so we all need to get down and support the team.
I genuinely want him to win the next games and prove the doubters wrong.
I’ve met him he’s a nice guy who cares about the club but so are a lot of other people doesn’t make them the right choice.
Let’s all get behind the team make some noise and hopefully win some games.
I would love him to shut people like me up I really would.
Thanks for your response and like I said I probably overreacted pal so all good.

I think we are desperate for a beast of a centre half and a wide player with some bottle to express himself.
If we sack the manager, a new manager still won?t have these.
Getting Nombe, James and Spence on the pitch is going to keep us up.

[Timbertop]

Agree Scum. We need a brute of a centre half or a brute of a goalie to replace flapper Dawson who keeps his place because he?s a top earner.Pity the back up keeper is rubbish ( bad choice there MR Warrington ?).

No, the bad choice is Warrington himself. Another ex player and cheap option.

I am struggling with the article that talks of MH and TS meeting and the chairman backing him in the window, the maths don?t back that really. 3 players have left an 1 in. The wages between Gray and Sherriff will have been similar as both young premier league prospects, so we have now saved the wages of Etete and Holmes?s, unlikely to be on small wages. He wants to bring in 3 more, so that means that TS has backed him with 1 extra wage!! Now all that is before we send players on loan and move players out which is stated as big wage players like Raggett and Kelly, so financially how is TS backing MH and how are we investing to try and get us out of the bottom four?

The whole articles that Davis often writes make little sense, because he is trying to make something applicable out of an interview, when we all knows how it works, it?s never changed. The plain fact is we do the bargains at the end. Davis has to write something, MH has to say something. You have to sell your house before you buy another. Simple as.
And hope you get another soon.

What I will say is this is way into the window, it?s the same old routine, may be even tighter on money. When he says he is confident Stewart will back him, it doesn?t mean a lot. It just means we will get someone at the end, if only a loan.

I would be more receptive if he said, he IS backing me, I KNOW by how much, so we know who we can bid for and by how much?at the START of a window. But they took ages letting even 2 go back, because we misguidedly thought we needed players like etete on the pitch against Huddersfield.
However, since MH really knows it will be business at the end, he keeps him for at least a game or two, shielding saving other players.

It?s all a bit transparent and boring.

No, the bad choice is Dawson. Nothing wrong with Cann, been perfectly ok when played, did not make the simple errors Dawson regularly makes. Look at saturday game, prime example.

What errors did he make yesterday

[pipppy]

What errors did he make yesterday

The own goal was the ref?s fault not Dawson?s.

[avondalemiller]

You can debt it all season long but Dawson is poor, a good shot stopper, but poor all round. He will be a top earner as well.

Another 1 of SE signings to go at the end of the season.

Why do you think Dawson is a top earner?

He might be one of the cheapest, that?s why he gets to be picked

Dawson isn't poor. We've had a lot of very good keepers who make him look poor by comparison. By L1 standards he's pretty middling.

Someone on here suggested there was a connection to TS (can't remember the rationale), so maybe that's why Cann has never had much of a chance.

It's maybe through his wallet and he insists on playing someone he's reportedly paying 10-12K a week?

Very likely along those lines... struggling to justify giving a chance to someone on little more than 'YTS' money when the other guy is on a L1 fortune.
