Our new German manager when he meets some of our underperforming players...

Ralph coming in with Eckert as his understudy to take over in a couple of years...? I'm not against Eckert tbh, nobody had heard of Thomas Frank before.

The dressing room culture needs to fundamentally change; Romeu will help address that.

Not fussed about an apology, better performances would be my preference.

Anyone who was here last season. With the exception of Adam Armstrong, Ross Stewart (he was injured anyway last season so doesn't count) and at times Wood, the rest have been utterly awful. Not just in performances, but attitude and application. We need to build a team around the likes of Scienza, Jander and Charles, and start shipping out a number of individuals who for whatever reason are damaged goods. Yes last season was tough but you can't be that fragile mentally, you have no chance of succeeding at the top level. Time to get ruthless.

If some players do want him back, that is reason enough for us not to appoint him. There are plenty of players who need to ship out over the next couple of transfer windows and they know the gig is up with a hard taskmaster.

Spors has at least got some gems in Scienza and Jander so maybe his boy Eckert is the one. Eckert is also even younger than Will Still. I think he'll be our youngest ever manager (interim included) unless I'm wrong about that.

We'll lose. We should've put everyone from last season up for transfer. There's a reason why nobody wants them.

Yup. A bit like Martin O'Neill at Celtic, a stable choice as interim manager

I want someone who the players would absolutely dread because he'd make them work hard. What must Roy Keane be thinking about his future son-in-law? Embarrassment surely

Exactly. Wrong place at the wrong time. Need a hard taskmaster, someone like Strachan who will take zero shit

Yeah we have to cut our losses here. He's Non league standard.

He's completely out of his depth. I feel some sympathy for him because these players are fucking useless. They are also to blame.

Nailed on. I just don't get it.

3-1 now. Fantastic news for our title battle

Downs would miss the ball in the first place

5 at the back is shit. Just play 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3, the fans want it, you want it, just fucking do it. It can't be any worse than the last two games.

Basically we need a 2 plus goal lead by 70 minutes to have a chance of winning the game, given how much we seem to tail off after this. If we're 1-0 up or level or behind aftwe 70 minutes, then we'll lose the game. That's pretty much a fact at this stage.

This team reminds me of Sunderland when they went down in successive seasons. It was a big spiral and they took years before getting it right. I don't think we will go down - on paper at least we should be doing better - but it's tricky to see where the next win is coming from.

I've moved into the out camp. The players are a problem but despite them, we should be doing better. We need someone experienced in. It's that desperate even someone like Steve Bruce would be an improvement, at least temporarily.

He's a good coach but the results say it all. He's the wrong guy at the wrong time. We need someone experienced to steady the ship and motivate these fucking useless players.

Today's result was a total disgrace. Will Still is a decent coach but he is not a manager and we need someone with experience to steer this useless pile of shit to some sort of respectability.

It's very concerning that under Sport Republic, we've had so many different people who for one reason or another seem desperate to jump ship at the first opportunity.

No. There were chants of 'You don't know what you're doing' when he brought Downs on but no sacked in the morning chants.
