C'mon now you f*ckers', stop pointing fingers and grow a pair, tell us who you want to replace him with !
    I'd take any manager that sets us up to take the game to the opposition at every opportunity that is plausible.
    As for pointing the fingers. Rafa deserves to have the fingers pointed at him.
    What's the matter, is he beyond criticism?
    He needs a kick up the aris just to get him to stop being so petty with players and dire in his set up.

    I think fans are scared to criticise him for fear of causing him to spit his dummy out.

    Hi Pboro . . . . Oh wait.

    So you have no names then? Just the Rafa is wrong and must go.

    He's not beyond criticism and has been criticised by several posters, it's just they acknowledge the positive aspects of what he's doing as well, also acknowledge that his hands were tied in summer.

    His hands weren't tied. He couldn't get his targets over the line and settled for other avenues.
    I also acknowledged the positive aspects of his tenure right from him taking us down all through the championship and for a decent portion of the lead up to this season, plus half way through the games as of now, before I started to get a bit down beaten.

    I can easily be swayed back towards Rafa if he starts to do what he did against Bournemouth when up against teams that beg for us to have a go, plus for him to change it up when necessary in the right way, not like he did against Bournemouth in the second half.

    You see, I can easily be swayed by him having the ability to give us some football to watch and a team mindset to not only stop the opposition but to ask questions of it at every available opportunity.

    He's not doing that and I'm peed off at it.
    We had a great chance to put some real daylight between us and the bottom 3 and we've blew it with a handful of games that begged for points gains.

    I'm not buying into his held back stance, because I'm not expecting him to do anything other than ensure we beat relegation but by doing it with a team that gives us a large portion of decent football and we aren't getting it.

    If this was most other managers doing this the crowd would be up in arms...especially when you think Rafa has been here nearly two seasons. It's not like he's just came in to effect change.

    Still waiting to hear who you'd replace him with at the present time Ghostboro ??
    I hear Carver, Pardew and 'Arry are all available, maybe Moyse when he finishes his part time job at WH

    I'd take Koeman in a heart beat.
