    If you look at the stats out of the last 30 points available they are damming. The last manager who I disliked got pelters from some of the same people now accepting the stats above.
    It’s clear now that the managers job is a popularity contest because there is no other logical reason to have faith in him.
    2 massive points dropped yesterday yet still he seems to be above criticism from some.
    He’s not learnt anything as he keeps reverting to the same system that has not been good enough that’s clear with the table and results
    He’s not been judged on results he’s been judged on the fact he’s from Rotherham.
    If he wasn’t from Rotherham he would be under far more scrutiny from some and imo that’s just hypocritical and unproductive the table/ results don’t lie.
    I'm absolutely baffled why he keeps playing the same system and it's become pretty indefensible. Accountability obviously rests firmly with Hamshaw on this one but it makes you wonder what the conversations he has with his coaching staff look like. They must surely talk about how we set up, so what are fans missing?

    Adegboyega is a young defender who we've signed on a permanent deal. Given the turnover of defensive players likely in the summer I can't understand why anyone would view this as anything other than good business for the club. Whether Jules leaves in the summer or not, we're definitely losing Raggett and Baptiste so why not act early and get another body in?

    The reason Hamshaw has survived this far isn't anything to do with where he's from, but you can peddle that myth if you want. He's still here because the club have bought into the idea of signing young talented footballers, developing them and making some money in order to move us forward. That's the theory anyway. Steve Evans would have been fired weeks ago. Why? Because he was overtly short term in his approach, his signings reflected that. He didn't deliver on his short term premise so he got the boot. Injuries are another reason Hamshaw is still here. They are undeniably a significant factor in our league position.

    Sacking manager after manager has contributed to where we are now. Without any doubt MH has his faults but I'm not convinced that we'll get anyone of significant quality to turn things around. For that to happen TS will have to pay off Hamshaw and then possibly compensate another club for taking their manager. I'm not sure TS has the appetite for that.
