    He's a decent manager who hasn't had a chance he yet. I'm just saying EVERYONE deserves a chance.

    Of course he has had a chance he had more than half a season, he brought in 11 players in January, the team and the club are going backwards under him. You can argue he inherited a squad, yes he did but it was a squad that got to the top of the league, you can argue that all the January signings weren't his but 2 of the worst 100% were and if they weren't he agreed when he signed up to the conditions put in front of him. Can you really imagine any manager worth their salt agreeing to having a double glazing salesman responsible for all their signings. That alone should be enough to show that he is not the ruthless, selfish, driven manager we need.

    No. Plan to appoint a decent manager as opposed to the dross ST has provided.

    Thanks for revealing your reasoning. He’s had some good results and consistency. With the greatest respect that is ridiculous

    The results have been abysmal. We were top and we ended up far behind in third. Ellis had some good results and he was there for 2 matches. Anyone in charge for 20+ matches will win some matches. The consistency was mostly absent

    Also his strategy is to blame the players attitudes

    The players were joint top when he came in.

    The players did not respect him.

    When you watch and try to listen to him that is understandable. He talks mostly nonsense

    Just think about it. We want promoted to the Premier League. In order to do so we need at least half a team who can cut it consistently at that level and continue to play for us if we do get promoted.

    Look at our player pool and draw up a list of whom you would like to see in our first season back in the Premiership. Do you see the makings of a Premiership team with your selection? This is the reality of it. This is what we have been trying to get promoted with. All the TV and media pundits agree we have not been good enough and our player pool sucks. No one could get this team to perform consistently enough to get us promotion. I have no doubt that most of them have been playing as well as they could, but overall they are just not good enough for one reason or another. Our expectations of our Club have had an unrealistic expectation from this team of players. The fault belongs to who brought us down to this position and who signed these players. You simply cannot make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. Not even Shabba can do that, no matter how good or bad he is.

    There are other more serious matters that require to be addressed first and foremost before we throw our Hungarian phrasebooks in the bin.

    Csaba has had a chance. He was given the job with the target of winning promotion. He failed. Miserably. He blew his chance.

    But of course, STABILITY eh? Lets stick with the madman who will take us to league one, because we dont want to change another manager.
    No other reason, just stability. Stabilty. Stability. Stability.
    Ram your stability you lunatic.
    There's no need to call a fellow fan a lunatic because their view differs to yours. Do people really think that the club went out of their way to appoint dud managers, of course not. LSArab seems to be suggesting that we just need to go and get a 'decent' manager. If only football was as simple as that. People can slag off fellow fans for wanting stability as much as they want but this constant chopping and changing of managers is making our club a laughing stock.

    What’s making us a laughing stock is having an imposter manager who talks nonsense and is bringing us even lower

    Our primary concern must be complete new ownership of the Club before we spend money sacking and appointing a new manager (assuming there is no failed promotion clause, etc., in Shabba's contract). It does not make any sense to spend our limited resources to appoint a new manager who may not appeal to potential new owners or investors. At most Shabbs' contract lasts another season. It therefore may be cheaper to hold on to him just now until the future of the Club is decided.

    If you want Shabba out, change your tune to 'Get new owners in' first.
