So, lads... How many more games are we prepared to lose while claiming "progress takes time"? This, as it stands, is fricking abysmal.

The players we have seem to be regressing, not improving.

 

[Smurph]

Genuine question Smurph. Are you in the Sheehan out camp now. Turned to the dark side . I did weeks ago, agree on what you said though.

It's getting harder and harder to try and defend him.

 

[magicdaps10]

Something isn’t right. It’s frustrating. We are clearly better technically than most teams we come up against but have no cutting edge. Something has to change.

Taking the handbrake off.

Cooper pragmatic approach isn't working, owners should know now that they have been advised incorrectly.

 

[monmouth]

It's back on

You sod, I thought we’ve’d scored then.

 

[J_B]

O.m.g. The Smurph has turned?

He's probably blue with rage.

It's a delay process, hoping it gets better.

His time is up.

 

[Swansea93]

Key played better under Duff… yeah I’m serious.

 

[Smurph]

Penny dropped!?

Not really, always try my upmost to support the manager and the team. I'm not that type of fan who changes his opinion like the wind.

Did Cooper recommend Sheehan or am I misreading this?

 

[bakajack]

Cullen has been shit and Widell gets hooked

 

[Swans Jack]

Im bored more than anything. It's just slow and boring. For me if the club wants to be serious he has to go. Reported that it will take about 2 million odd to get rid. Do it now.

 

[Andrew - North Hill]

I'm done with him. There is no way Josh Key should be left one on one at the back.

I agree, but FFS Key is meant to be a Championship defender. What's he got, well over 100 games for us by now? Come on. It's not good enough from him, and that's got nothing to do with Sheehan and everything to do with the player not taking personal responsibility.

 

[Smurph]

O.m.g. The Smurph has turned?

Hard to defend a manager who always the weakest player on the pitch to be left with a one on one with arguably the biggest thug on the pitch

 

[Longlostjack]

Starting to think Sheehan is a better coach than manager.

 

[eteb]

Again with this "infinitely better" nonsense.

How on earth can you say that when we have all just witnessed a piece of defending from Key that was National League level. And I'm probably doing the National League a disservice there.

We have got to start facing facts that a lot of our squad are just not good enough at this level.

Yes they are. The manager is a cunt
