I have to agree. Slade's days are numbered. Sadly
It is starting to look like it was OGH who was the real saviour, not Russell Slade. But who would have expected this utter shambles?

Apologies, I'm far too worked up for subtleties like that at the moment!
No problem. I understand some people get more worked up over results than others.
just as the leader of a political party ultimatley carrys the can for his party, so must the manager of a football team.if excuses were points we would be in the top 3, but they are not and we arnt.i want results not sob stories, mr bloom must be starting to lose patience i would imagine.another saturday night and weekend bollocksed up.sorry facts are facts and you cant really argue as the table is now starting to take shape and the better teams are starting to settle down, and we are not one of them.i belive we could be and should be but the facts dont lie, im pissed off with being pissed off.
Did MK Fake Dons look like a team in 5th place? Did we look like a team 5th from bottom? No! We played bloody well today, handicapped by inept officials.
surprised you can string three words together, let alone be so contructive....!
Just get rid of baldy bolloxs, Adams over stayed his welcome and so has Kojak.
One sending off isn't Slade's fault, two isn't Slade's fault, three can be seen as unlucky. But when you've had as many sendings off as you have points, then there is clearly a problem with discipline, and that is the managers responsibilty to sort out.

If you are serious then that is a moronic post. I hope you get the same treatment at your work too.
Okay if you want "contructive" (by the way if you are accusing people of being thick at least spell properly), then here it is.
Sacking Slade when we have just got the team playing well would be disastrous. The last six games we have got 8 points (not the end of the world) and lost 2 games, one in the last minute when we hit the bar twice in the second half and the other against a play off side with 10 men for over an hour. Slade has been without 2 of his best players (Murray and McNulty) effectively all season. For various reasons we have not been able to play a settled defence and we have had a number of shit referees (examples include yesterday and Bristol R both denying us late penalties and both referees generally allowing our opponents to get away with diving, Huddersfield where Kuipers should never have been sent off as it was not a goalscoring opportunity and Stockport where Elphick should never have been shown the first yellow card).
Despite all these problems, I think that the majority of Slade's signings have shown promise and when we have the same defence for more than half an hour, we will start to move up the table. Finally, in Micky Adams' first season in charge we had a mixed start after bringing in lots of players (it's what happens when you completely change a squad) but had a good end to the season and went up the next year. No doubt midway through that season (and certainly after four games of the next) there were calls for him to be sacked. It is a good thing that chairmen generally don't listen to a reactionary minority of fans who haven't got a clue.

My main worry is the players themselves and their commitment, how many times did we see Dickinson and Co pulling out of tackles, not chasing back and just ball watching?
Kuipers stop just kicking the ball up front, use the full backs to build play and midfield MOVE, create space and hold the ball up ...
There was that one challenge that El Abd didn't pull out of... oh.
Poor michel. For years people have thought of him as our worse keeper (when we have more than one viable choice) because he couldn't kick the ball up the field. Now he des and people want him to stop...
