Newsnow says they might get the sack before Birmingham game but the game is a do or die for them I wonder If it’s true and if we have someone lined up?

Do you think the club has the faintest idea of a plan? I’m angry enough with the club as it is. If they panic now and sack the Cowleys then the club truly will deserve all the ridicule and abuse it will get, and the last bit of faith and goodwill to Hodgkinson will be gone. At least from me.

The worrying thing is that looking at other decisions made in the last two seasons it wouldn't surprise me.

If it's anything like usual it would take us over 4 weeks to replace them
They won't be getting sacked - not now anyway

No matter what happens over the next 7 games the club is crying our for some stability so this is hopefully only paper talk. Not good for squad unity though when these sorts of stories surface, especially when Colin has already been snapped up by Boro.

I am as reasonable as they come and pretty measured but I can't disagree with what you say. It would be the ultimate confirmation that we are run by amateurs (and I sadly include DH in that) and utterly clueless. I think the Cowleys have been given a far worse hand than we realised and have done well to give us a chance of survival. Unless there is complete unrest behind the scenes, or some other back story (i.e. they are already planning to leave) I see absolutely no sense in getting rid of them now. I would have faith if they had the chance to build their own squad they would be successful. Let's hope this is idle speculation, although I am afraid to say nothing surprises me about our club these days. As for the fans the underlying culture of "they've had a great ride, they didn't really expect" needs eradicating. It's as patronising as it is pitiful.

Absolutely no chance. Lazy "journalism" at it's finest.
We battled hard to get them in we're not just going to sack them now nor should we.

Irrespective of their ability - Bottom line is we can’t afford to sack them!

Can't sack him now, I'd rather have Cowley in charge than that wet-wipe Hudson.

This won't happen, but if we get relegated I can see them being sacked.. 2 wins from last 8, 7 points from 8 games...and tbh we've had some pretty poor performances...slthough individual errors have contributed massively to our decline.
Mind you, Seiwert lost 8 in a row and managed just one win in 15 games and he was given the summer and 3 games this season before being sacked..so by comparison the Cowleys, with 11 wins and 8 draws are the 'dream ticket'...
The problems though doesn't neccessarily lie with the managers, the club is still in chaos, we still have deadwood to deal with, and now we're skint broke too...having to play end of career players and youngsters.. not a brilliant mix at the moment.
I think even if we stay up, which looks increasingly unlikely, I think the Cowleys will go..we were 23rd when they arrived and we're 22nd now..hardly progress is it ?

Still clinging on to some hope that we can win a couple of back to back games soon to hoist ourselves up the table. I know the last couple have been shocking, but prior to the halt to the season before the Leeds game we'd beaten Charlton 4-0 and Bristol City 2-1.

Or is this a case of dumping before being dumped. As we all know PH is an amature operator and is he likely to make the first move to save face?
I hope this is rubbish. The Cowley's whilst not setting the world alight are the only bright spark we have here and to lose them would be crazy.
The players should be held as responsible for this debacle as well the owner/s and we'll before the Cowley's are questioned.

But the money doesn't really matter, what matters is they are an outstanding management team. Mr Hodgkinson is to be praised for bringing them to the club. Huddersfield Town might go down this season but the Cowleys will leave the club in a far better state than they found it providing Mr Hodgkinson isn't foolish enough to show them the door. If there is unrest behind the scenes that is all the more reason to stand behind the Cowleys. They will be the men to clean out the stables and put a squad together to make Huddersfield supporters proud.

Would anyone be surprised if Hodgkinson sacked them and appointed himself as caretaker boss? He's got the monogrammed training kit already.
If anything would represent our demise from Premier League club to 100% clown shoes club it would be that 😁😁😁

Essentially we would need a manager to get results instantly and in a 3 week period. There's only Warnock who could do that in my opinion so on that basis we might as well stick with it UNLESS the players have absolutely no respect for the Cowley's ala Siewert in which case we need to change now. Only insiders will know the feeling in the camp.

The performances have been poor since returning but what seriously would sacking the Cowleys achieve?
We are only in the regelation from the abysmal start that they inherited and was anyone calling for their heads before Covid? No was they heck. We’d just thumped Charlton 4-0 and yes lost to the best team in the league unfortunately but they can do that to any team in this league.
I have no idea why we’ve restarted so poorly and they have to take some blame for not having the lads ready with such a big period. However, we’ve been a mess for years and this isn’t a quick fix unfortunately. A win on Wednesday and we can hopefully pick up some confidence and momentum.

If we get relegated then we will need someone in with a good record in lower divisions. Like the Cowleys.
Unless there is something untoward behind the scenes they should be safe until September, regardless of which division we are in at the time.
FLW is a bullshit speculation page. I wouldn't take much notice of it.

The day the Cowley's turned up we had "bombed" out of the PL (I believe we won 3 games in the previous year), got only 1 point from the first 6 games this season. I thought they steadied the ship well, tightened things up at the back and whilst not the best defender in the world I do think the season ending injury to Tommy Elphick has been a massive blow. We had the likes of Kongolo, Diakarby and Mbenza giving us absolutely nothing. And upon the restart we have Mounie out injured when he had been playing really well. I know all teams have issues and others like ourselves have struggled. I believe they have been in charge for 33 games and aquired 41 points so yes I do think they can get us out of this and will do so.
