No, me neither but not necessarily because I like him.
Just that I fail to see what negativity achieves.
However, we are in testing times right now, even for me
True, and if I'm honest, 7th is the least I expect this season.
Trouble is, we may be 6th but have you looked at how close 23rd are right now?
Whoever was in 6th at the minute, whether it be us or someone else, it could easily be interpreted as a false position. In the space of 2 or 3 games and we could be right in the ****!!
I have never called for the man's head, and never will, but it would be sweet symmetry if he did stand down, now of all times - almost 5 years to the day when he took over, when he started his tenure with a home game, in the FA Cup 1st round, losing 4-1, against League 2 opposition ............. against a team beginning with the letter C!!
My gut reaction after last night was that maybe his time has come now. Watching us 2 out of 3 times against Cheltenham this season (who are a non-league team in many ways if you look at their infrastructure) has been hard to bear. We should be so much better than them - but aren't!
Whilst not calling for SD's head, I'm not naive enough to suggest that changing a manager would not make any difference - sometimes it doesn't, but sometimes it does. We may just be at that point where it must be done. Which is a shame because I am proud of the fact that Crewe Alex are not a hire 'em/fire 'em sort of club but every manager does reach a certain point regardless of previous achievements.
I also find it sad that a small minority were probably waiting for that result last night, and in a curious way, enjoyed it. Anyone with that thought process are not real fans.
Is Collins up to the job??
