NEXT 3 GAMES.

Post by BAFC1901 » Tue Nov 19, 2024 10:41 pm

CHESTERFIELD (A)
BRADFORD (A)
MK DONS (H)

How many points do people think we get?

How many points does Clemence need to remain head coach?

If we get 0/1 point out of the 3 will he be gone?

We can take all 9 points. We can also get naff all. That's the league this season .
Speculation about SC's future is not helpful.

The results are the reason for the speculation.
Personally I think he is toast.

The players need to be told they will be playing in North West Counties .
These 3 games will decide his future.

Think we’ll only get 1 point sadly

He needs a win at the very least from the next 5 and it’s a tough run of games (yes, yes they are all league two blah blah blah) otherwise you’d have to start thinking do we give someone else the transfer window

I think our primary objective every year would be to stay in League 2, anything else being a bonus so let's see if SC can achieve this. He's not been here long, has a mainly inherited squad and might have limited influence on recruitment by the sound of things.
We will foller the soccer, over land and sea...

Why even think of replacing him? Give him 2 seasons to build a team and a style of play. Stupid speculation by panic merchants
Just say no to VAR :sentoff:

Totally agree Wild was on a 3 year plan till he blew up Clemence should be given time and be allowed input into some new attacking players

I'd snap hands off for 3 points over these next three games in whatever way they come.
Popular side since '03.

We are due to not win at Bradford.

I'll go for 2/3 and continued inconclusive rumbling

Yes, very much so. The knee jerk reaction to any difficulty is not warranted, SC needs time, a tiny percentage of the squad are players he signed/wanted. Mid-table mediocrity with a view to push next season would be an acceptable season, that said, I’m sure we all agree that we should be pushing for play offs at least, but we need to be pragmatic and understand how the team/league/game changes season on season, and this is efl2 at the end of the day, come on, FFS!. Talk of the sack just illustrates a non-sensical attitude.

And, of course, sacking managers mid contract and having to pay them off is a very expensive way of doing business.

Absolutely agree that he deserves time but c50% of the squad were signed or had contracts extended after he walked through the door.

Next summer will see Garner and Telford out of contract with Popov and Dallas back at their clubs. Big opportunity to rejig the attack.

Mind you - Spence, Foley, Gotts and Campbell are all out of contract too so there’s another department that could look completely different in August.

We shall see. In the Barrow Index we trust!

Totally agree. And if the three recent draws, when we conceded in stoppage time, had been wins, we would now be in 3rd place!
