    RN would need to lose every game 4-0 between now and the end of the season to overtake some of Csaba's shockers.

    the two ayr games and losing to alloa were bad and not acceptable in any way but from January last year to May, we had some embarrassing results including getting thumped by a poor falkirk team 6-1 and reacting to that by losing 3-0 at home a few weeks later to morton so please dont be comparing any of RN's defeats to some of the previous dross we've seen.

    RN isn't a magician who can magically turn us into a championship winning side over night. he needs to change alot about the club and not just players, a whole mindset and mentality needs to change if we are to achieve anything. things arent looking great but i have faith in RN to sort us out and improve us as the season progresses

    I have seen us lots we are rotten. Your Definitely Our Best Player Fyvie has been utterly shocking since his return. Unfit unable to find a teammate and slow to the point of statuesque. Drop him.till he is at least half fit.

    I want RN to.play 11 players with heart if they are 17 then play them empty the dross and we plan to get up next season. Let's see a plan; and ffs 2 up front against the mediocrity in this league

    If, and I do mean if, he doesn't improve both tactically and motivationally, and we suffer another batch of humiliating results, and fail to get promoted, showing no signs of improvement, would it not be just as crazy to keep him on til next season, as it was to allow first McKinnon and then Laszlo to have the summer to rebuild the squad?
    The length of his tenure has to be determined by his performance for the remainder of the season, and if he shows nothing to indicate that he can get the best out of whichever players he has, by showing some shrewd management, then he will not deserve the summer. We would be better to start over in May rather than wait til October as we have done on the previous 2 occasions.
    You can argue that the players are poor, but unless he shows more managerial skills than he has so far, it won't really matter what players he has, just like it wouldn't have mattered with Laszlo.
    I hope to god that he shows us something to give us hope, but after recent inept performances from him, I have my doubts.

    You fail to understand that he has inherited one of the worst playing squads in the history of United and the Hibs,the result in Dingwall was more of a miracle than the Scottish Cup win of 1994,i honestly cannot understand why he took the job on in the first place he must have been FN desperate.

    For the record, that's definitely not my wish. I'm just interested to know how you can have judged every played Csaba signed as being rubbish if you've barely seen them play.

    I would personally be gutted if Neilson not given time. Actually it would be a disgrace.

    He is a great, young Scottish manager. Inconceivable almost that there is better candidate out there right now to be our manager.

    Without him it would be one of the usual has beens or has never beens

    Who would come to a club that just picks up a decent talent and then throws them on the scrap heap

    Neilson must be given time

    But no manager is completely safe, so really a bit of a daft question in a way?
    The reason I asked the question was only because we have a new owner and a new management structure who might not have the patience of the support.
    Had MM still be running the club then I think Robbie would have been given at least this season to make his mark.
