Two schools of thought....

[kevtherev]

1.Give Slade a dozen games to get it right, by which time we could be so far adrift and confidence so low, it may be impossible to turn it round...Thinking Hinselwood/Coppell..

2.Get shot now, and give new man a nearly full season, giving players kick up the arse and new ideas on players...i.e Dicker mainly +others.

I go for latter, something is clearly wrong and its plane for all to see, confidence must be shattered and lets face it Stockport are a poor side, which ever way you look at it.

 

[strings]

Not sure.

Two games, four penalties conceeded and three players sent off... we have a discipline problem and I'm not sure who's fault it it.

 

[Whitterz]

Agreed.

Discipline problems there is. I get the feeling Slade is too much of a soft touch. Time for him to take off that stupid f***ing baseball cap and give the players a kick up the arse.

 

[ryeseagull]

I go for latter

You would have guessed from the even-handed way you presented the options?

Discipline is a major problem, though, and that is poor from a manager.

Plus, the Transfer Window closes in about a week. IF Tony Bloom intends changing the Manager - he may as well act now. It would be a shame, because he is a nice bloke - probably too nice as he has not kicked-out his two assistants who are the common factor between last year's farce and this year's.

what about the other school which says give him two years, f*** knows whats wrong at the moment but personally i think we'll pull through.

Agree with that assessment. Fr Hawkins to come on as sub, and within two minutes commit a red card offence with the team already a man down indicates to me that he should be playing for Allen West or Brighton Trams, {How's that for dating oneself} at Preston Park.

 

[Brovion]

Come on, we;re getting better. Only four goals conceeded instead of seven, and TWO scored! We'll get a win before the end of September don't you worry.

 

[Ninja Elephant]

Give Slade 46 league games, and we'll see what happens as the result. He's building the club and these threads are going to look RETARDED in a couple of months.

That's not exactly two schools of thought, is it? It's one school. "Get rid of slade now"

Two schools would be

1) get rid of slade now to stop the rot setting in and give his replacement a chance

2) give slade a few more games, it took him a while to get the team working together last year, but when he did we won 5 of 6 games, and that was with a squad that had been together most of the season, these guys have had 5 competitive games together.
