Leventhal also hasn't said anything since his half-time disapproval post, and hasn't done his post presser live - possibly suggests an issue or delay to the presser, for one...
I know we will get stick but if he picked the team today sack the ****, if somebody else picked it what’s the point in sacking him , sack the person who picked the team
After the stoke game I sung his praises. He seemed to of galvanized these deadbeat players. They had a smile on their faces. I think he’s just a coach though not a head coach/manager yet. Put him on the training pitch have him work with his ideas there having a laugh and improving morale. But Gino and Scott have really ****ed up with chucking him in the ocean without a life jacket.

I feel sorry for him but he really shouldn’t have been given the job. Seems like a nice guy but tactics are non existent
Agreed, get someone in (possibly Spanish, ideally his mate Rafa ) to come in and be the manager, while Xisco can stick around as coach/Director of Vibes
He has to go. Anyone who selects Gray to start knows nothing about football. He should be arrested for impersonating a footballer.
Not sure about that, but with the club posting his post-match comments does that mean he’s safe for now?
It’s what needs to happen. Would our clapping seal go for this? Maybe if it was his mate the Spanish waiter but we know that’s not happening. This squad really does not need anymore upheaval they’ve seen a ton of talent depart these players need some stability the club needs stability. This really is part the problem players not playing as a team they play for themselves wave their arms around when things go wrong. FFS I tell my u 10’s not to slag each other off if they make a mistake the last thing you need is someone else slating you when you know you’ve messed up. Encourage lift their heads up but they don’t care cos they know the boss will be the fall guy and they go home with a pay check. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
We need to get people into jobs they are qualified to do. Xisco’s experience to date should have him in NO a position at the club. He shouldn’t be kept on in any scenario. We’ve also tried to make Xisco look more experienced by hiring members of his backroom team who are more akin to PE teachers.
Maybe, maybe not. There seems to be little or no communication between Scott/Gino & the club's media team. They frequently post something "fun & uplifting" about players, a few hours before they get sold.
I'm concerned that that's the case, would be an odd climbdown either - unless the socials just aren't being directed at all, I suppose.
“we can give more, we can play better” - no ******* **** , the question is why aren’t you giving more why aren’t you playing better, today was a chance to go within 5 points of the top, if that isn’t the motivation the players need short of kidnapping their loved ones and only releasing once we have been promoted I’m out of ides.
Who the hell comes in now to replace him. The sooner Gino ****s off the better. This whole model stinks. The shortlist when Xisco came in was appalling ok maybe some had experience at this level but not any with success Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
That article also says ‘although we started 4-4-2’ we adapted his new system as the game went on.... Must’ve missed that. Surely they aren’t trying to con fans into thinking throwing an extra striker on with 5 mins to go was his ‘new system’?!
A new coach is appropriate measure that can happen immediately. Sadly, Gino can’t just disappear in the same manner. It’s a total mess. No one can dispute that.
Out players seem a mardy bunch. Maybe we can have a proper hardline coach like Sannino and then Xisco can do some juggling at end of each training session and after team talks.
You only need to listen to Tim Sherwood on Soccer Saturday to know he has no right to manage at a high level. He’s clueless on a lot of things.
This is how much the club is in a mess. Xisco was told after the game he’s done. Xisco tried to get the players to back him, they all want him gone. X person was then informed that their head coach replacement is no longer interested. Xisco was given a lifeline simply because we can’t get someone in by the next game. The players not happy. None of the above is true. However it could be, that’s how pathetic we are as a club.
