    Bilic isn't a bad manager, he just isn't a manager to take us to the next level.
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    He's currently struggling to keep us at this level.

    Slightly off topic.

    One for the future? ;wink

    When I saw “Kevin Nolan”, “Notts county”, “sam allardyce” and “champions league” all in the space of a few words, I felt obliged to click on the link purely out of curiosity....

    Yes Nolan for sure, he will do a SA / Curbs Job for someone, trouble is that isn’t good enough for many fans these days, they took the words “try and close the gap to the next level” far too seriously, some even thought it was promised

    What really angers me
    Is we spend time effort money plus game time, fair play and luck
    To get European football , and it was just pushed aside like a warm up.
    Yes we beat Arsenal and other teams now long distance memory’
    We strive to make a name for our selfs, just blown apart in preseason.
    I will go back 2006 cup finial that was day out but
    It was a game we should of never have lost, and player I thought was ok got the blame
    Rant over ;yercoat

    I still can't make up my mind but I'm running out of patience. Two points were thrown away yesterday,& yes Antonio was at fault & Slav can't legislate for that, but we concede WAY too many late goals that cost us points. Even the one good season we had with him we still managed to throw away points when games should have been sewn up. I haven't voted in the poll because I like him & don't particularly want him sacked but the late goals issue needs to be addressed urgently,whoever is in charge.

    Wasn't late I'm the game fatigue a problem on his arrival, and then something that BFS addressed ;hmm
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    I don't think we are anywhere fit enough either but I see that Slav has said we had loads of energy on Saturday so he obviously doesn't think it.

    What worries me is that the manager says ‘as long as I see us giving everything we have, I’m happy. And we did that on Saturday”.

    If giving everything results in 19 shots to 6 and 40% odd possession to the leagues bottom side, then god knows what we will be like when we don’t give it all we’ve got!

    We let in a few late goals under SA as well, sometimes it’s not about just “fitness” it’s everyone being in the right place doing their job when defending

    Saturday, Kouyate and Rice, right place yes, did their job, no

    show many more penalty's are we going to give away this season , we must be top of that league table to me this explains many things to do with game management and Fatigue

    We are, currently, with 3 ;ok

    However, given the many instances where penalties are given that shouldn't be or not given when they should be (as strenuously argued, on both sides, by fans of all clubs) I don't think too much weight can be given to the number of penalties given against us as 'explaining' anything.

    Unless it is bias and a conspiracy on the part of the referees.

    ;whistle

    3 pens in 10 games is stupid. It explains how poor the game management of the defence is.
  • SuzanneClaretSuzanneClaret
    I don't care what happened under Alladyce, I don't care what happened under Grant, Roader, he who shall not be named or Rednapp.

    I care about what's happening now!

    But many weren’t happy with the overall style and pushed for change, well now we’ve got what I was always worried about, what appears to be no style.

    One was harsh, two needless reds also hasn’t helped, all avoidable.....

    I reckon we’ve thrown away 5 points in total
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    Does anyone know what the next target (if any) the daves have set him is? Because by virtue of the fact he is still our manager he appears to have passed the previous one ;hmm
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    Do you know that they have set him any?

    Its all avoidable otherwise it would never happen. Fact is it has!

    I feel like the club is sleepwalking towards relegation under Bilic at the min ;weep

    Well, the Daves did say that it was vital we weren't relegated in our FIRST season at the London Stadium.............. ;hmm
  • Slaven_Cups_His_BeardSlaven_Cups_His_Beard
    And they wanted to get to the next level, didn’t say which way though did they?
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    It's worth remembering that after his first season there was a clamour for him to get a new contract but the Daves resisted saying he could be a one season wonder. Who has been right so far?

  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    Pretty well sums up what a lot of us have been saying on here
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    The daves may well have (arguably) underwhelmed in the recent transfer window but even with the squad we now have there is no way on earth there should be clear air between us and the likes of Newcastle, Burnley, Watford etc at this stage of the season.
