Should have gone long ago, in fact after ballsing up the play offs so spectacularly last season.

Might be too late  now even if they did make a change. 

The absolute deadline for getting shut of him should have been the Wrexham home game. It was clear there was absolutely nothing left in the tank after that.

Val out Duff in 💪

Good shout but as if Duff would put up with these jokers.

Yeah I’m dreaming I know 🤣 would be entertaining to see Duff trying to get along with Rudy 🤣

If we were a normal club we would have replaced him before the window and given the new guy funds

we signed this prick on a 3 yr deal

he ain’t going anywhere 

 

ffs

Didn't see the top line at first and my heart sang a little when I saw the graphic.

Please don't do that to us. Lol.

You are giving the idiots in charge too much credit

He was signed on a 3.5 year contract 😉 

Still has 2.5 years left, and he isn't getting sacked

Blown away he's still in charge. One of the worst we've had.

 

[RevidgeBlue]

You've got to give VI credit. He's consistent. 

He can bomb without trace with either a half decent squad another guy had in 6th or 7th,or with a substandard squad he's filled with assorted Euro trash of his own choosing.

All the same to him. He's not fussy.

I suppose if we have any real hopes of remaining in this league then we have to roll the dice and sack the manager now. It's not going well for Val and it doesn't look like that's about to change anytime soon. Maybe there's  no manager on earth who could save this ragtag bunch, but we may as well try. If we wait any longer we could be cut adrift at which point it will be too late. Unfortunately, I suspect saving some money on Val's severance payout is more of a priority than anything on the pitch.

Could imagine a scenario where we will sell someone like Alebiosu to pay for the sacking as he still has over TWO YEARS left on his deal 😂

[John]

Can’t see Gestede wanting to get rid of him - he needs a yes man in place and someone not to rock the boat.

 

[Ferrit]

Not to mention needing to be paid off for 2.5 years.

Can you imagine getting an inspiring team talk from Ismael and Cantwell? 

The downgrade in mentality from Eustace and Travis is staggering.
