Re: Our formation

I'll add to the previous post - there is absolutely nothing wrong with Santos, IMO he's our best player. The stick he got last Saturday was ridiculous, the standing on the ball etc. this was because no one in front of him was moving, he had no options at all, none - he had no one in front of him to...

Re: Our formation

Sat quite close in the bottom tier at the side of the pitch, all 3 midfielders where absolutely abysmal, non existent - yes Paris tried a couple of times to run & create (even with his injury) but that was it, both Sheehan & Thomason hardly moved they were both shocking, as I've said previously it l...

Re: Should I(E) stay or should I(E) go?

Surely after Saturday's debacle & the obvious fan disappointment and the potential damage done - the club needs to communicate something upbeat to the fans about the future, given Evatt's comments towards the end of the season about taking time to consider his future etc. They can't just do nothing ...

Re: Should I(E) stay or should I(E) go?

The longer it is before we hear from either Evatt or the board, the more difficult it will get if he stays.

IMO we need to hear something next week.

Re: Should I(E) stay or should I(E) go?

I voted go & have calmed down a bit after Saturday and want him to go more than ever ! I actually don't mind him as a person, I just think he's a poor manager who talks the talk but hasn't improved us at all IMO in any area of the pitch. I'm talking watching us live at matches (not just stats) He wi...

Re: Should I(E) stay or should I(E) go?

Not sure anyone, anywhere, ever has said that Evatt should carry on as he is. I've repeatedly said he needs to change. I can't speak for all stay-voters, but I'm confident they all think the same to a greater or lesser extent. There's a serious conversation to be had, and it'd be lovely if it start...

Re: Should I(E) stay or should I(E) go?

Yes it's now down to fans to find out who's available, who wants it and then interview them before suggesting alternatives. I have noticed that not many have responded to my question about those voting stay and whether this stay vote is based on Evatt accepting his failures, changing his ideology & ...

Re: Moving on: Forward March.

Sorry TD but with respect anyone thinking that Saturday can just be swept under the carpet and forgotten is deluded. Saturday was damaging and should Evatt stay and we are not in the top 6 after 10 games, the fans will turn and it will become toxic very quickly. Please do not under estimate the dama...

Re: Should I(E) stay or should I(E) go?

Common sense seems to be overhauling passion. Change is needed and I think he must know it, , but not the manager, just his mind. ae:) ae:) How is this done, how do you get a very stubborn Evatt to change his ideology & philosophy to accept that what's gone before hasn't worked - just curious ?

That would do. I don't want to be his bezzie.
The current one is also not very likeable and wins lots of football matches.
Yes but not the important ones that matter

Re: Should I(E) stay or should I(E) go?

I think he'd take it unless he has better offers in the championship, we are a more attractive proposition than some may think. If Alex Neil wants to get back into football, I don't think wages would be an issue - great stadium, decent fan base, good chairwomen, ambitious board etc. possibly a decen...

Re: Tooling up: The summer 2024 transfer thread

But it’s about creating the sort of spirit and whatever that Oxford had for the last 12 games. They weren’t the best side but they went up. Because their collective overcame sides with better players. You get what I’m saying. That’s the job next season. Being the tactically best manager getting eve...

Re: Should I(E) stay or should I(E) go?

I think if you’re keeping the system we have to upgrade the wingbacks. Cooley was on the whole excellent this season but he isn’t Connor Bradley. We won’t get Connor Bradley but perhaps loaning one from above might be the way to go there. Randell I think is as good a signing as you get at this leve...

Re: Tooling up: The summer 2024 transfer thread

That would be peak Evatt, get a player in on loan, don’t play him, then sign him cos he knows best!! I'm not sure that Evatt actually knows what type of player or players will get us out of league 1, his signings are quite similar - we have all (practically all) said for a couple of years now that ...

Re: Should I(E) stay or should I(E) go?

^^ I think for me, Bertie, if he's going to go, either under his own steam or otherwise, we just need it to occur quickly. We've been told plenty that a minority or just a few not rights want him gone, but this little survey (obviously not statistically representative) suggests there might be a few...

Re: Should I(E) stay or should I(E) go?

I honestly can't understand anyone saying he should stay, if he did it would be absolutely exactly the same next season. He's not going to want to re build his team (would FV even back him to do so after the backing he's had already ?), he won't want to get rid of some players who he's brought in hi...

He can't stay IMO, after yesterday I think he's lost the majority of the fans.
