It remains an oddity to me how he managed these wins. Was it just blind luck?

This latest appointment could be subtle the confirmation they aren't even thinking about sacking Tonda. Regardless of what happens in the next week. They think simply bolstering the team around him with also-ran analysts will help prop up the puppet and improve the product. Trying to run the club like a tech company.

Or when this seasons relegation is confirmed.

Am I right in thinking we went to a back 4 yesterday in the second half and saw an improvement? If so, and Tonda reverts to a back 3 from the start on Wednesday then he's lost me completely.

Even if we do. And even if he goes. Who will they appoint to replace him? Let's not kid ourselves into thinking it'll change a thing. Will just be another manager who wants a back 3 and possession based game. That's probably the most depressing thing. Manager makes no difference.

Wide open with every attack. Still we persist with 3 at the back.

Nope. Tonda will be there till seasons end now. Can't see them sacking two in one season.

Looking for signs that the players are even bothered by this.. Nope. Still most just flopping avout the pitch bored.

Unfortunately that's another game gone. No defending. Too easy and keeper no chance. This could be 3 or 4.

I'd say we are about the same. I do think we'd have less points. Tonda was fine when he was trying to get the job. Now he has it, he has gone for the safety approach again. Or is being controlled.

The old backwards passing working out as usual...

1 nil. Embarrassment.

Yeah, there is something just typical about SR to get a keeper in who has barely played for years and is very much an unknown entity. Rather than getting in someone who has a track record showing even a basic level of competency. I mean, why wasn't he getting games at Hamburg? Oh dear.. here we go again.

As bad as we've been lately, at least we won't have a crisp packet in goal * * assuming Peretz is ok!
