Wilkins has 6 games left ....







Barrel of Fun

Abort, retry, fail
No funding when we needed some investment in the team and LDC did there bit as well. But it was the championship a much higher standard of football than where we are. I want BHAFC to be as successful as possible, we just disagree on the manager to deliver that, to be accuse of wanting the team to fail is pretty low really but hardly suprising really

Sometiems your posts come across as that, but it is obvious that you do not want the team to fail!

I think lack of investment is the key. There is not a huge gap between the bottom end of the Championship and League One and there are a fair few examples of teams slipping stright down to League Two.

Last season was always going to be a struggle with a young team devoid of experience. We may well have found our level for the time being - bouncing around in League One for the forseeable future.

bit harsh Al, thats something I cannot accept , I do not rate Wilkins to be fair never had but to criticise this present manager I am wanting the club to fail, what planet are you on, I backed McGhee, Taylor and previous managers it was trendy to slag off by the double standards of NSC hypocracy but becuase it does not fit your agenda that I do not hero worship Wilkins like you do I am accused of wanting the club to fail with some side swipes about what a failure in life I am compared to your wonderful life achievements. Get yer head from out your backside, with respect old chum
I don't hero-worship Wilkins, but that's different from actively wanting him dismissed from the club. You do not rate Wilkins because you point-blank refuse to acknowledge the restrictions he is working under (admittedly McGhee had the same restrictions), and the job (which is now different from McGhee's) he is being tasked to perform. Different insofar as Wilkins is having to re-build a squad predominantly made up of kids. Is it my imagination or is it that you want - demand - success now, now, now?

You only look at one criterion - results. That is an extremely shallow position to make your judgements from. You backed McGhee, you backed Taylor - great, so did I - but you can't bring yourself to back Wilkins, nor have you done from day one, and you moan about hypocrisy?

So if you can't back Wilkins, and he is not going to be sacked, then by definition, it's not a huge leap to say you want Wilkins to fail, and therefore you want the club to fail - you can't have it both ways. It's when you mention your preferred alternative - Ian Chapman, purely because he was a tenacious player (again only using one criterion), while not forgetting that you don't rate Wilkins because of his inexperience (spot the hypocrisy again) - that I know you can't be serious.

Al, fair comments I just feel we could attract a much better manager than Wilkins even with the money constraints, its not Wilkins fault, anyone would have probably taken the job, just he was not the right choice last September and he still isn't.

How many managers in how many seasons and still we keep calling for the manager's head.

THE PROBLEM IS NOT WITH THE MANAGEMENT. THAT IS A SYMPTOM OF THE CAUSE.

Which is us being skint in a shitty ground in front of 6000 moany gits.

the fact you still refer to McGhee in your signature a year after he was sacked make me think its time you moved on as well, your goal of getting him sacked was achieved a long time again

So you said, but, using your 'results' quote aside (even that holds little water as you only limit yourself to home results), you still haven't said why - and to be honest I don't care because all you've done is moan and grizzle.

Plus you said you wanted IAN CHAPMAN because Dean Wilkins was inexperienced...

:thud:

Well as that case might be.

Would say the difference was McGhee had in theory built his side and it got relegated. Wilkins is trying to build a side and that needs some time.

Talking of pots and kettles... The only reason you are so anti-Wilkins is because you were so blindly pro-McGhee. Sour grapes is not a very convincing argument for sacking a manager.
