The Ruffles selection was odd (given his form) and not putting Karoma on was also puzzling. But here's the real question - is this group really good enough. Are the mistakes systematic of their abilities. To me there are player who might be ok in the future, some who have been (but are on the downside) and some who are not up to the task. It's not a good mix. Our only solace is that the league has some poor teams in it. Are there 3 worse than us? Highly debateable. I’ve always thought the players were good enough to stay up. I’m now doubting it but that’s because we don’t have a goalkeeper. I’m much less concerned about the keeper than the fact we have no goals in our team. Saturday was a classic example against an awful team who hadn’t won in ages and we had two attempts on goal. They were that bad attempts I can’t recall them and I was there.

Warnock should only be allowed to come if he brings his lucky mascot, "Evo" with him.
"Evo" was usually seen in the dugout with Warnock in his days at Town but was a solicitor during the week!

If you think we're okay with him in charge, then that's fine. I personally think we'll finish bottom with him in charge. I dont want him in charge. Im just saying id rather have him in charge for a couple of weeks if thats what it takes to make the right appointment. And im blaming the players for how they perform, not just the manager. Tend to agree, MF was terrible I don't care what anyone says and shouldn't have got near the job. A professional footballer should be able to make decisions on the pitch to correct issues to some level themselves without just waiting for the manager to talk.

If the strategy is no good you can blame the manager, but basic quality of play is down to the player! (Saying that, the belief and confidence the player has is also down to man management)

I’m much less concerned about the keeper than the fact we have no goals in our team. Saturday was a classic example against an awful team who hadn’t won in ages and we had two attempts on goal. They were that bad attempts I can’t recall them and I was there. You're right and it has been a challenge all season. The balance in the squad hasn't been thought through and we seem to have bought players we can "afford" rather than players we can "afford" but are able to fit into a pattern of play. I'll give an example: Mahoney - on what basis was he signed? To fit in where? The worry I have is we can be critical of the players professionalism but do we not miss balance in midfield, we are weak on the left side and we lack a mobile striker (for me Waghorn and Ward do the same thing). If Warnock is to come in can he get enough out of these lads to keep us up? I wouldn't be confident. When you add a working environment that is clearly dysfunctional it all points to the season we are suffering. It is true we have had some awful injuries but the weaknesses are very evident.

Believe Mahoney was a Carlos signing, must hve thought that he could work with him, unfortunately Carlos scupperd this by jumping ship. Was baffled to see him on the bench at the weekend, waste of space!

Chicho will manage the Stoke game. New gaffer likely for Brum on Saturday. Not likely to be Warnock. For fucks sake, talk about knocking us all down with a feather.

We could give the new manager half the club. Keep us up and it might be worth a few quid. Get us relegated and the statutory £1 will be split two ways.

The ones where he said he doesn't want a full time position? We need a manager not an advisor

Warnock all day long, I just don't think he would do it, realistically he would want his own team and we wouldn't go for that. Moving clem, chico to one side for jeppo blackwell and kenny for 12 weeks

Still think it’ll be Leam Richardson What’s the point? It will need a massive character to be able to shift the way this is heading. Appointing anyone who isn’t a bone fide, experienced Championship manager is pointless.

I’ve been looking to see who we can play up front and came across this. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/teams/huddersfield-town/top-scorersMan does that make depressing reading

Skybet have taken their market down, this means either something is imminent or their odds were vastly wrong on somebody? Bookies don't pass up the opportunity to make a few bob unless they have to
