Thomas? get out of here, we need to win this game.

No he did very averagely with some excellent players. Adams was dump but he had a good side, Hart did about the minimum possible with it. His management career is pretty average (even tending to woeful).He may be OK with youth sides but it's pretty obvious he's no master of seasoned pros. I am really surprised that QPR rushed into appointing him after summarily dismissing Magilton who was no prize catch either.

Why not? they cannot be worse than any of our other options. In fact after listening to the Pardew interviaw I would say that there is a fair chance that he does go for Seaborne and Fonté,simply because they provide more in midfield than any of the others. I think that once you see this new defensive stability actually passing the ball you will see a different midfield. When you hoof the midfield is completely bypassed and nullified.

Hart isn't a very good manager.They should have taken more time over it. There must have been better candidates available than he.

Seriously though just why are they tarting about with blokes like Magilton and Hart? If they have the ambition that they seem to have then they should go for a manager with really proven credentials, like Coppell or Curbishley. Just really can't understand their cheapskate attitude.

Bad appointment in the first place, at least they had the sense to ship the guy out straight way, even if it meant paying him off.QPR appoint bad managers every time.They should get a head hunting agency on to the job next time.

I don't compare him to Pulis, I don't say it won't happen. I say we won't sign him (if ever) before he plays again for Doncaster.

I must be frank and say that before all the magic roundabout transfer talk started last week-end I'd never heard of the bloke, and that's saying something.We WILL NOT sign Brian Stock before he plays some games for Doncaster-if we ever sign him at all. We are not very likely to take a big punt on a bloke who hasn't played for over 3 months.Look where that got us with Pulis.

perhaps if Stock actually starts playing for them again after 4 months of injury they won't need Gillett any more.Who cares anyway.

Isn't there another away game in a few days though. It's probably about limited money and multiple choice.How many have we sold for MK Dons on Wednesday?

Boo Hoo poor, old Coventry. We owed them a bit of jiggery pokery for filching Best (thanks anyway) plus they took a long time to pay us for him.

Area 51 exists, I know that.

but we're not signing Stock, it's just another rumour. You have to base what we can do on what we have now.

fonté though or hopefully so, one of our big problems this last few weeks is that the defence have taken to hoofing it forward. Our midfield where much of our talent lies is totally nullified by that because they have to scrap for second ball rather than having time to create from source. Hoofing just means that you can have the best creative midfielders on this earth and they are totally useless to you.

the defence has cleary been identified as our Achilles Heel, apparently Pardew was furax after the Colchester game, not surprising ,the goals were really lamentable and could easily have been avoided if our CBs weren't so slow.I've always said we need 2 CBs and a RB before anything else. Looks like he leans towards my point of view as well.

If Perry starts at CB against Millwall we will have great difficulty in winning. I do not rate the man, neither does the management apparently otherwise we would not have signed 2 new CBs. Game reading is one thing, physical presence is something else.

Did Ward really phone them ?? Is there proof of that ?

probably go back to Colchester, wouldn't mind him though, always scores against us,or so it would seem.

3-5-2 in League 1 would be fairly innovative. You need defenders of an exceptional calibre who are used to the system. You have to have one of the back 3 who can sweep and relance,it's not in the possibilities of all players. Perhaps Fonté, but I see him being used in front of a classic back 4 with Jaidi and Seaborne in the 2 CD roles. One thing's for sure in a 3-5-2 system you don't hoof.

Not fussed myself, I'd rather see players going out of the door before any more come in. I'd like to see our new players with shirt numbers other than 40,45 or 50. Above all I want to see Saganowski and Thomas gone by the end of the month, even if we do end up paying someone to take them off our hands,they are the past, the demise and have no place here now..

Neither will be in the starting 11 on Saturday, how about that for a reason.

the 2011 contract is,if I'm right, particular to this specific game of Football Manager, meaning that it has no basis in reality or in FM as a whole. It is this FM player that has decided the 2011 contract date.

Pity we don't have pre draft combines like the NFL. At least there are some serious factual values available.Not ones based on the opinion of some ST holder or other who may or may not know something about the player or even the game.

By some schoolboy games player I presume,excuse my ignorance I have never tried my hand at any of these football fantasy larks.

I think it was stated earlier on in this thread that he was out of contract this summer. Hence the short contract with us with no fee attached (apparently).
