2 wingers upfront missing chances and 5 at the back with absolutely no identity or game plan whatsoever, thrown in no subs at half time and over all looking not arsed in the slightest and I see a major issue at this club…the players are awful and that clear as day but Worthington got so much more out of them, we are due a huge clear out of these players who have horrendous attitudes…but AB simply isn’t the man..you cannot be this stubborn in our position, bin him tonight.

18 months. 6 managers. Constantly battling relegation. When will some fans realise it's not the manager? The players are not good enough. Maybe League One is what we need, full factory reset. If that does happen, I for one, hope we stick with the manager. The players arent good enough but every single person at Rotherham could see we needed some subs. Look what happened today with actual strikers playing upfront. Bojan and Healy linked up nicely a couple of times and must have passed to each other more than Koroma and Burgzorg

Some of the comments about Worthy & Co are utterly ridiculous, we were rubbish against SW for an hour but we won 4-0 & then other games were just poor, we beat Sunderland & was very unlucky against timewasting Hull......The only reason AB came in early was because of what he saw in the JW games, bizarre comments.

Its without doubt the players. Simply not good enough and im not sure some of the care. Della walks off at 2-0 down, constantly offside. Wanker.

AB doesn't have a clue how to get the best out of this squad. I'd seriously call it a day now and bring Worthington back in for the last 7 We can’t. We just can’t. All the teams in the top 11 haven’t changed manager all season, look at what Robins has done with the years he’s had at Coventry. We can’t keep chucking managers under the bus. The guy has won more than all of our players together, I’d much rather keep him and sack the players off regardless of division.

Everyone is collectively to blame.
Maybe not as much as everyone else right now but AB - far too slow in making decisions in game. He needs to learn the championship, and learn it fast if he's to keep us in it.
Players - they should really be ashamed of their performances this season. There's been a few stand outs, Helik & Spencer particularly have been refreshing. Sorba Thomas also worth a shout. However, for the rest, they need to be held accountable as much as anyone. It's alright Pearson flinging his arms in the air following some criticism but what was he expecting? They aren't fit to wear the shirt.
MC - Assuming signings are made on his watch? Matos has been OK.. but Balker - made of glass, Radulovic has so far been crap, Tom Edwards - don't get me started on that fat fucker. We're playing an old, slow CB who is shit on the ball, probably lower L1 standard at best, at RB, because Tom Edwards is so shit.
Edwards/KN - Removing NW when we're as comfortable as we've been all season? So fucking what if he wants to sign his own players or use a certain agency. He was getting results. The appointment of Moore - probably the main reason we are where we are. 2 coaches or people in charge have got results out of the team this season and both of them have been removed from their positions. The football might have been shit at times but we were picking up points under them.
Collectively as a whole club, this season has been an absolute fucking shambles. Yet they will happily raise the cost of season cards and mug us all off next season.

It has been a house of cards for years - it has finally collapsed. Struggle to pin the blame on anyone in particular to be honest. There must be at least 10 contributing people/factors.

Coventry had about £17m up top, and they didn’t have 3 pence to rub together not long since whilst we were collecting premier league money and parachute payments for 5 seasons. The difference in composure and first touch between them and our lot was night and day.
We’ve played at being a championship club ever since we got promotion in 2012. How we’ve been to two play off finals I have no idea because as usual with town it’s all been on the cheap and make do and mend.
Wank.

And look at the mess Sheffield Wednesday are in. They’ve landed on Danny Rohl by complete accident and he’ll no doubt do a Corberan this summer and clear off elsewhere.

But he made the change of managers at the correct time and both times he got it right. It's partly become Carlos wasn't backed financially that the we ourselves in this mess.

What we really need is Big Phil’s brains with Nagle’s pockets.
Sadly, our recent history is like a double helix: we’ve either had money or nous but never both together.

Difficult to pin all the blame on AB, but he’s not got them playing.
We’ve got worse since he joined and the team he picks / how we set up / the subs we make is all on him. And none of that is any good.
First half today we wouldn’t have looked out of place in the District League!
Hopefully he’ll be on his way with the rest of them when we’re relegated.

I would agree but for buying the club without the necessary funds is a grave error of judgement.

Im constantly amazed at how many times in games a Town player has nobody to pass to within 20 yards of him??? It amazes me further when nobody covers for each other. Its not a lack of talent, its simply a lack of commitment to work hard enough, often enough. Add in all the sick notes we have signed or re signed and you have the issues at Town in a nutshell.

The players are of course culpable. But the people responsible for assembling this squad and making the judgement that they were able to compete in this league are the ones who have caused all of this.
Today, Coventry were stronger, faster, had better movement and better technique. We had ( as an example ) Headley tacking himself in the 2nd half before putting the ball into touch.
In January they decided ( at last ) that we needed a striker. I must admit, I thought that at last we would be seeing the arrival of a Championship quality forward. Healy has been unlucky with injury - but who was the person who when carrying out due diligence, thought that Bojan could make the required immediate impact? That is just totally reprehensible.
I have never seen a Town side so inept in forward areas.

With this guy in charge we ain’t got a hope of staying up. I thought DM was a mistake but under him we were ok at the back and shit up front. Now we are shit all over the place. His tactics of only bringing strikers on as a last resort are bizarre to say the least

We have some pretty average players, some of who may mature and improve given time. 3 critical errors this season; sacking Warnock, appointing Moore as his successor and then not getting shut early enough. It is at the door of those people who made these decisions if we are ultimately relegated. I remain hopeful AB will come good but he needs to be able to change things much quicker than he does when things aren’t working.
