Part of me wants to be critical because it seems like we are playing with the shackles on. There've been a few games this season where we've looked great when playing a bit more dynamically with yesterday and Leicester just after half time springing to mind, chasing the forest game, the start...

To be fair everyone looks too afraid to even try and beat their man. Everything is just too cautious.

I would say the unrest in the stadium is as bad as I can ever remember. For weeks now he's had his substitutions booked and stick at the end of the game. I don't even recall Bob Bradley getting as much stick, last game aside.

I fail to see how a player posting on social media the night he's scored two own goals against his former club is an indication things are bad behind the scenes. For what it's worth I think the players probably have had enough of Sheehan but the Burgess doesn't suggest that at all lmo

For what it's worth I think this squad has the right mentality. It's everything else that's letting us down

Decent as in a nice bloke.

Part of his problem is that he'll always be associated with people who most fans would never want anywhere near the club. He's also the latest manager boring fans to death so the patience has started to wear a bit thin. Imo a total rethink is needed when appointing the next manager. This...

What factually makes this better than Martin and Williams?

How's it any different? If anything it's worse!

Very audible for perhaps 10 seconds or so

It's really gutting to be in a position where we are going to be sacking a really decent and honourable manager. Unfortunately though the football we have played this season has been absolutely dire and I honestly don't think he's got it in him to be a manager in his own right. It feels quite sad

The two goals he scored today weren't enough for you, no?

Looking forward to picking one up for £15 in April

The irony is that most of the managers who say they play attractive, fluent and exciting football, don't!

I get the general sentiment on this thread and I've been quite surprised at how quickly the fans have turned on Sheehan. The dissent at the ground is as bad as I can remember for a long time. I'm dying for him to do well because he seems like a nice bloke and so much of what he does and says I...

More or less how many goals we'd score in probability, given the chances created etc. Its just a stat to tell you a bit more about how the game went as opposed to just the score. Vips xG was low today because he scored two goals where the probability of him scoring was low (Ie. Most players...

The sensible part of me knows this isn't true but I almost feel conned by the sort of football we played last season under him to the sort we are playing this season. The change in our style and the enjoyment was pretty much achieved overnight after Williams was sacked, so I'm not quite sure I...

I've been wondering if football as a whole is changing so much that we all something that's rapidly going out of fashion. Basically like turning up at a chess match expecting blood and thunder entertainment

Under Sheehan last season we were regularly shooting from distance, getting the crowd on their feet, getting some momentum, etc. All that seems to have stopped now. Very easy to defend against if you know that the opposition aren't going to have a pop as you can stand off at your leisure.

I would also add that presumably the plan last night was to still be in the game with 10 minutes left to play and then have a bit of a go. As soon as we started doing that, we looked much better. Although whether that was due to a change in approach or personnel (Vip on for Idah), who knows.
