Indeed it is. Two average to poor back up level keepers and an academy lad that’s looked out of his depth when playing cup ties. This is the state the team has been allowed to get into.

So he should just chuck in Hilton?

Who does he pick instead? Hilton? Who’s looked ropey playing L2 sides in the cup. It’s a mess.

Ok, JDT can’t get his sides back in games, I’ll leave the last fella out of it. It’s obviously a negative for this manager regardless. (but it is a symptom of something amiss at this club when it comes to mentality as its been going on for years).

If there’s one thing JDT doesn’t need to worry about it’s losing his job, it’s his until he walks or his contract happens to run out and the owners don’t get round to bothering with another one.

I was hopeful of some improvement on Leo a few weeks back, but alas he looks a mile off at the moment, as does the other bloke. You can get away with punts from Norway, Holland and the like for outfield players, you’ve nowhere to hide as a keeper. It can work out obviously; TK, but it’s a gamble. All goes back to the mess of this club again, when was the last time we brought in an experienced keeper from English football?

He’s naive, he has a win or bust mentality, he needs to be cannier with when to rest players, he needs to mix it up especially later in games, he’s not been able to stop a malaise of weakness in the team going back years that means we don’t get back into games once we concede - how about that? Now you tell me what you like about him.

‘JDT fanboys’ 🙄 He deserves criticism for a run of bad results just like every other manager since the dawn of time - who says differently?

Yet so many of the fans on those photos now won’t have a word said against them… I know that’s the case as I know a fair few of them!

The club obviously wanted to cash in anyway.

It’s been poor since Sheff Wed, no question, but we were on a good run before that. Bottom end budget with a huge injury list, this will happen. But I’m backing him to turn it round - as he has before. But generally mid table is our lot with this set up. P.S as as for him being ’immune from criticism’, get out of it he gets plenty in the ground and on social media and has from day one.

It’s ‘Lowe In’ now I take it?

‘Mattyblue instantly dives in’ Rev only when you completely ignore the elephant in the room and blame everybody else from the tea lady up for the sorry state of this club , and to be fair to you you’ve finally cottoned on to the root cause - it’s just took you about a decade longer than everyone else.

Anti? Far more likely to hear pro Venky chants.

It stops at the owners door.

He obviously is up to it as his actual record has shown over 18 months. We have bang average players made up of poor signings, loans and academy lads. The manager is not the issue here.

‘Manager’s not up to it’. It’s a bad run of form. We were flying a month ago, that’s the Championship when you have such a small and inexperienced squad. What else is going to happen, you are going to get these dips with this bunch of players. The solution is to get shut of these disgraceful owners, that ain’t on the horizon so we just have to lump these drop offs.

JDT was taking about him in his interview only on Saturday saying how he’s been knocking on the door for a while and has really impressed him - but yeah with this massively stretched squad lets send him to the fourth division instead… just 35 days of this to go folks 🙄

It’s been the story of the decade and why we never do more than tread water. But Dolan at least has something to offer, like many others have - standard Championship players. Markanday I’m afraid just looks like he’s never going to make it at this level.

And that can be said for the majority of players at this level, it’s why they are down here. Markanday is a mile off him.

You don’t think Dolan’s been effective here?

Yeah and one of them has actually been effective.

Dolan is an important member of the squad and has contributed from day one. So should very much be near the first team. Markanday has contributed nowt from day one. Not remotely comparable when it comes to impact.

Does anyone look like a winger these days? Five yard passes is all any of them do.

Garrett’s been offered to L2? Why would we do that when he has something to offer at this level and will be getting plenty of minutes.
