Burton winning. We're going to be adrift very soon.

If they win today and beat us next Friday they will be eight points clear of us (albeit we will have a game in hand).

Burton play again midweek as well they could be 8 points ahead of us before we even play them, meanwhile we are stuck with Coyle and any win seems beyond us.

Its over sadly

It's far from over. We're only one win shy of Bristol City and Burton might lose their midweek game which would mean they're five points ahead having played two games more.

I do agree if we stick with Coyle he'll take us down though. Probably with games to spare.

Very true Rev but even a point behind would make us massive underdogs with Coyle

New manager bounce may be enough to save us but I can't see him going.

A good battering tomorrow might do it, but I don't trust this lot to replace him with owt special, although I'd take just about anyone right now.

So he was believed to be the right man for the job, that's one thing. But it has now been proven that he wasn't and isn't. Not only should Coyle be sacked but Cheston who employed him - and continues to back him - should be sacked as well. Incompetence at all levels and negligent owners. Paul Senior is merely an employee - presumably as sporting director (or whatever he is) reports to Cheston as well.

After all, any other alternative scenarios are merely conspiracy theories... :rolleyes:

Cheston was on holiday wasnt he? 

Senior is Director of football and operations. I bet he doesnt reports to Cheston but to Pasha. 

Next Friday game is a must win game. Bristol City and Forest are two teams we must get enough points to get above them. 

Birmingham shocking form continue. Proves Zola is a poor manager and shocking decision to get rid of Rowett

He was considerably cheaper than Warwick or presumably any other decent alternative.

No need to go searching for any more complicated explanations.

Maybe not, but sticking with him is just plain stupidity and will cost the club a lot more money following relegation.
