Since these post Hull “hard truths” that were called out in the dressing room we have four points from six.

Progress. 😂

Maybe in terms of point accumulation. In terms of performance levels on the pitch, less so - our passing is still excruciatingly poor and something we must improve on.

Agreed. I’m not seeing evidence of the basics in terms of passing and move in the team. I watch other teams in possession and there seems to be more structure and purpose in their playing - they create more time on the ball and therefore less risk in their passes.

[Pilchards]

I’m sorry it’s not progress.

Played two very weaken teams and we clearly struggled in both.

We indeed have no game plan especially watching Armstrong run around like a headless chicken chasing loss causes.

Does anyone think he’ll be there next season? 
 

Would be stunned if it’s not a “thanks but goodbye” in May when we’ve finished outside of the play-offs.

We keep coming up short, whilst looking average at best, against teams with loads of players unavailable 

 

Tonda out

With SR who knows, they are mad, so it would be no surprise if he was

I would prefer him to be gone before Saturday

still need to make sure we're on course to finish safe of relegation before they can think about next season.

One league win in almost two months isn't going to cut it.

It was sarcasm but yeah I agree. 😂

He won’t be here next season, neither will Spors.

Tonda Eckhart will be gone as soon as promotion is mathematically imposssible.

Johannes Spors will be gone in the summer too. Expect a gardening leave type scenario.

Spors will be gone with Tonda as he did persuade dragon to appoint tonda

Does this mean we don't have to pay either of these clowns compensation?

What was the point in the whole experiment? for SR to see if we already had a genius manager within the ranks that could get them out of jail? 😂

I believe it just means there is an agreed payout figure in the contract.... rather than on the hook for the balance of the contract

I think you are all too optimistic. I don't think they will be decisive about it.

[Dell McDellFace]

Many people on this thread: "We turned Carrick down for Tonda" 
The commentator on Sky said he was interviewed, but not that we turned him down. 

It could well be the case that he turned us down because the offer didn't give him the autonomy that he wanted in terms of team matters. And maybe Tonda is constrained and advised who/when to substitute based on what the data scientists say - he hinted as much in an interview. Perhaps he is okay to take the flack for things that aren't under his control.

I still like him and want him to succeed!

So someone that is happy to be a SR yes man for the time being? I'm not at the like him stage yet as he seems so distant and guarded in interviews rarely showing more depth to the personality seems another serious bloke ala will still. That is the ultimate issue any manager that comes here it seems isn't allowed to manage in the sense of the word and that will never ever work out so SR need to change the philosophy or we will continue to have a rotating door of managers.

Turn him down or not let a decent manager manage the club how he wants - just as bad as each other IMO.
