The manager summed it up in his post-match interview

'The players go out and represent the management team' - Yes. And they clearly weren't good enough.

When asked, as he was after the Wolves game, what he could do to change things, we got another 'erm', then he laughed (?), then he said that was 'the million dollar question' - he clearly doesn't know the answer.

He then went on to say how he told the players to pass the ball but they just didn't do it. So the players don't listen to the manager then - what is he going to do to change things if they don't even listen to what he says?

Same stuff said every week with little or no change in performances except maybe to get worse.

Question to Doug Livermore: Still think it is crazy to suggest the manager be sacked?
