    He needs to go now. Not tomorrow. Not after Millwall. Now. There is no way back after tonight’s showing.

    Me to, the bloke appears incapable of trying to adapt a formation to challenge when the original plan aint working. Valerie does not appear to motivate, lead, inspire and its not as if this as just happened its been going on for months. The benefit of the doubt from me as now ended. Bye Valerie. Im sure Barnsley will have ya back.

    Who will go first, Boris or Val?

    I said a few months ago when fans were getting annoyed by Val and his tactics, that early on.. were signs he’ll never last. I didn’t think it be this long, we are so in the sh it because a new manager will hardly have any chance of bringing in new recruits.

    Something has clearly happened behind the scenes, for the first time tonight the players clearly weren't playing for him, his body language on the side of the pitch was also really poor I think its a question of when rather than if.

    On the grapevine, people are saying Johnstone fell out with him and was left out the squad.
    Think the players have never brought into the way we are playing.
    As always the gaffa get the sack and a big payoffs, the players then decide to start playing.
    But it's us the fans who have to put up with this constant merry go round.

    At the start of Val's reign, plenty of players were coming to the press with positive comments about the gaffer and his ways. Livermore, Furlong and Grant spring to mind. Times gone by and nothing positive comes out of the club from the players, unless I have missed anything.

    He's made it clear in the press that some players are underperforming and some are just gone, like Snodgrass. No room for movement. It's all a bit like a headmaster.

    I don't think you will ever see a successful side without togetherness and they look like a bunch of strangers on the pitch. This blokes dogmatic and the dressing room has gone completely. That performance tells you things aren't right.

    Hello Lloyd. Don't quote me on this but I was told this afternoon it's not as straightforward as it seems regarding a Sam Johnstone 'fallout'.

    Apparently he's got a move lined up for the end of the season and is refusing to play in case he gets injured. He's got no interest in leaving for a fee during the window.

    Apologies if this has already been posted elsewhere. And don't shoot the messenger.
