Why give a bloke who is clearly clueless time and backing though? If we continue to play the anti-football that Fev prefers them crowds at the Vic will fall below the 3000 mark very quickly. The feel good factor of a new owner will soon evaporate as we are bored to tears with performances and totally pissed off with results.
He needs an ultimatum imo, start getting results and improve performances to prove your credentials as a manager or you're out. A big stick is required imo not a bagful of carrots.
We should be riding towards the crest of a wave and gaining momentum not in a slump. I've said it all along that results are not down to the owner, the players, manager, and coaches are the reason Saturday turned out as it did. A new owner means feck all if they don't start doing there jobs, too many of them looked as if they'd been on the lash until the early hours imo, lethargic or lazy, zero passion for the club, the shirt, or the Poolies who made the journey.

Yet the players regularly churn out 'inspirational' pre-match stuff such as 'McNally: “Everyone’s going to be on it, raring to go." and subsequently fail to even turn up in most cases - or lose their backsides as soon as the opposition take the lead. Pools opening the scoring seems to be an increasingly big factor in the team going on to secure the points rather than losing interest and totally bellying up as on Saturday - even before they were down to ten.

not long back a good many wanted him given the job permanently including alex reid in an interview. we got the rochdale performance and then the woking shit show. two home games on the bounce against beatable sides like we has 3 not long back and only won one. we,ll get how good the opposition are and are playing for their lives when we fail to win. most teams would see this as a realistic chance of 6 points but not pools.

No, the aim will be 2 clean sheets as per Fevs preference. Expect 2 bore fests and 2 points at best against 2 struggling clubs, although Fev will insist they're in false positions and atd really good sides.

Feaths is at least partly correct, Alty WILL resemble a good team on Saturday against our current shower of shite - especially if Smith needs to be reinstated between the sticks.

he is as PC as the rest. no bad teams in this league, false position blah blah blah. just some are better than others and there are poorer sides than others in this and every pro league in the country.
