Agree with much of that....However 3 games in is 'panic buying'

6 games in (maybe even 5 if we get zilch this week) if we are still bottom or near bottom is not and will force the Boards hand. However DS will know he's in big trouble. I do think we will get two decent results this week and will end the season mid table. Ok that is not what many people want (nor am I necessarily saying DS is the right man) but this squad is not promotion material or remotely close. In any event I hate the Premiership- even the likes of **** Brentford would stuff us now.

Whilst I think DS does have respect I am less sure about Shakey's credentials as a coach. Leicester won the league due to Ranieri's motivational speeches and pizza. They also had circa 30% possession which is not the way we play. I think he was lucky there, and whilst not being 'fattest' (I'm a bit tubby myself) the poster yesterday who made the point the players may have less respect for someone who doesn't have the self discipline to keep himself in some level of shape may have a bit of point. Basically I don't think he's a very good coach though.

And yes whoever sanctioned the buying of Sarge needs their head examined. Sadly he is everything a natural striker is not.
