Whoever comes in, caretaker or the permanent choice, they have to have November and December to turn things around and understand what signings we need for Jan. Big 2 months.

Guest reefatoon Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Surprised no CEO or sporting director is in place yet. Knew a manager might take a little longer while we fill these places, but they really need to bring people in on the football side as soon as possible. Was expecting appointments in these roles straight off the bat, not sitting here nearly two weeks later with absolutely nothing changing. Quite surprised by that.

In a normal situation, I can take that. Not when his presence itself is detrimental to the team. Lascelles and Hayden were already fighting after the match.

Would of preferred Mandy to of made that comment to local media outlets for clarity tbh if she has made it The inertia is crippling for the moral of the players, they look disinterested, demotivated & devoid with him still here, would love to be part of their whatsaap groups Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 I believe that Bruce will still be in charge for Palace and probs Chelsea, despite things falling apart behind the scenes. Two heavy defeats to come. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Its already pleading patience when you aren't 19th with zero wins and a finite amount of points to play for. That's before you get onto morale, player fitness, etc. We can't afford to waste through too many games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but if the Steves leave, them that leaves Smith and Jones as senior squad coaches. Smith is of course, the GK coach which would mean Jones is managing the remaining 22. With coaching staff at reserve and junior levels thin on the ground and mostly not very good......who exactly do we bring in? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Quite worrying the lack of news regarding this now. Bruce is toxic as fuck, he needs to go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeepShow4life Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 We need to get Bruce out asap. It's gonna take weeks to get the players back to proper match fitness. I'm sure Jones would at least have them training more often until a new manager comes in. Plus everyday he is here, the atmosphere will get more toxic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 (edited) I understand wanting to have someone lined up but this isn't just the fans having lost patience over the past 2 years. This is extreme circumstances now. I've seen a couple of comments saying that Jones may have said behind closed doors he doesn't want to take on the caretaker role.. has that come from anywhere with any validity? If true I say sack him off as well tbh. Obviously not quite as urgently as Bruce; wait until the new team is in place.. whoever that may be. If the above Jones talk is a load of shite.. tell him he's in charge and he can give any peers a bell that are currently unattached and willing to lend a hand.
