Are you complety sure NO ONE wants him out? I would imagine some of the old hard core Fans are very disgruntled about this season, the fans who were moaning about Nigel Gibbs leaving for example. Fans want success. losing and being bottom and the negativity of the fans spreads very quickly, people weren't shouting Aidys name after the game v bolton, why? Because they were peed off. Who with? the players for not trying, so why not give Aidy his end of game chant? what is really that wrong at WFC - IMO nothing. All is in place for a bright future, relegation does not change that, so why fear it. Use it as the platform to go forth with greater strength. This season we are weak, next season we will be stronger and the season after we will be stronger again and prepared and more experienced. Wait and good things will come our way.
I don't want him out! I just want him to learn from his mistakes and get us playing like we did last season rather than just lumping it in the air to 5'5 wingers!
I thought we'd do better. But I think that Aidy's inexperience cost us. In his tactical setup for sure but even more in his transfer market dealings. Not as much in January but in August. The fact that he didn't manage to get cover up front and to be honest - some quality elsewhere - is what cost us. I'm sure - when Marlon got injured, Aidy regretted not signing J.D. Job or someone else. True we were a tad unlucky in the for 12-15 games but maybe a little luck had given us 6-8 points from that - we'd still be in the mire. So we have a gaffer who's still learning. I think he's showing he's already learning - by signing 5 more players than he let go (6 when Tiggy comes back). We now have depth in most positions. And in terms of CCC football - we have strength in depth also. Coz as I see it ALL of our January signings were made with one goal in mind - coming back up after one season in CCC.
I agree Bubble, Hate to admit it but as I couldn`t get to Manchester, went to St Marys instead and on their performances both Saints and Wednesday would have beaten us if we played the way we did against Bolton. The worrying thing is that Bolton were `no great shakes` either. Our last years promotion team spread the ball fast and wide , the problem is not the long ball play - it is not varying our approach - we are just too predictable, the midfield can break up play but not hold the ball and create anything. I just hope some of the new players can add something because on current performances we are a mid (championship) table team, and find it very hard to get back, as there are still some `big spenders` down there.
Nothing is wrong at WFC - imho. This season came a little too soon. Look at Blunts, Reading, Wigan, Wet Spam etc - all of these clubs have planned for premiership football a long time - we stumbled upon it. Chalk this season up as experience - go down wiser and come back stronger - AND PREPARED! I am annoyed when we lose do to lack of effort but to go down fighting means the lads are giving their all.
