More time?

[Rincewind_rooftrouser]

Lets be honest some of our players are just fair weather bottlers so it was always going to be difficult for Maynard but the worry is these "tweaks" seem to have made things worse. Personally I'd still see it out with Maynard until the end of the season but it's unlikely he'll be here next season.

Some aren't exactly robust but it's the senior players' reaction which is telling. Obviously you can exclude JOB, but Didzy is anonymous and Bostock has just given up. Would we have got either if it wasn't for LW and his style? Bostock wouldn't have come for DM in a million years & Mcgoldrick would surely have thought twice even though it was us. JB was way out of sorts already but he's checked out for me. If he can't get these guys to buy in then there's no hope

We’re not going up this season, we’re not going down, so I would give him the next three away games and Salford at home to turn things around. If the performances are still dire, he has to go and give JOB the job until the end of the season. We then have time to get the right person in for pre-season, which is going to be huge given the deficiencies that are now glaringly obvious.

Me too - he has to win at least one of the next four games and the team show some belief and positivity in the games - and that is being generous to SM

I think this underestimates the ever-increasing pressure that builds in squads, when they need their bosses to go. It'll only get worse and worse, we'll lose every game now until the boil is lanced - IMO even just 4 more games of this and the boil becomes a volcano. Everybody needs the blessed release of this being put out of its misery

I genuinely believe that Notts have now passed the point of no return. The damage being done by the manager to the players and in turn the supporters is undoing everything that has been achieved by the Brothers in the last few years. Action is required tonight, and NW6Pie is correct in suggesting JOB looks after the team for the remainder of the season. This action would stabilise the team, provide confidence to the supporters, and; give the Reedtz Brothers time to get the structure right for season 24/25.

Agree he will be here for the rest of the season to "prove himself". But not sure after that....

[uysapie]

I still think that he is out of his depth in this league. The crap defence isn't helping but after todays' match, I can't see another win. Tactics, what tactics? End of the season at the latest, he has to go.

Personally I didn't see any of our players not playing for the manager today.

Sure, they ran around.

He talked in his post match about how we’ve had a crap defence all season, deliberately ignoring the fact we were in the top 6 all season as well, at least until he showed up.

[SwalePie]

I'd be mightily relieved to find out he's gone tonight.
