If we can't get someone who is better than what we have (and, to be honest, there isn't really anyone of a high calibre available at the moment unless we look at people who've managed far higher up, who will probably be setting their sites higher than a poorly-attended league 2 club), then I for one would resist rocking the boat at this stage. Perhaps I'm blinkered as I wasn't at Saturday's game, but did anyone realistically expect anything other than defeat? Granted, the manner of the defeat may have been unacceptable, but fifteenth place with two thirds of the season or so left is by no means a disaster. JEFF - I don't know what our playing budget is any more than you do, however, as far as I am aware, we have yet to pay a fee for a player (with the exception of Roberts) since promotion, and given that gates are low and the board (rightly in my opinion) do not wish to saddle the club with debt, I would assume it is reasonable to assume that the budget is amongst the lowest in the league. I realise that as an exile and one who rarely attends, many of you may feel my views are less valid than those who have had to sit through the last few non-performances, but I really cannot see the point in pressing the panic button now. In all honesty, if we were going to pay a club employee off at this stage, I suspect Oggy could suggest a more urgent candidate?:) |
Re: Surely Coleman must go
Changing your manager can have benefits sometimes - look at the way Burnley are performing now - but on the other hand can be a bigger disaster - look at where Preston are now.
Sometimes sacking the manager is the 'easy' solution but it doesn't always fix the problems. |

Don't you know anything about football Gayle, it's very clear there is nothing wrong with where Preston are now :D:p |

Re: Surely Coleman must go
Think the main problem is that it rattled too many fans up the wrong way has coleys decisions that it is sitting bad with even the very die hards & thats alarming as i found from a few last night & yes the club should be very concerned about that indeed!!

Re: Surely Coleman must go
There must be some reserve/youth team players bursting to get a chance surely. These hopefuls surely would not let us down in the effort department.

Re: Surely Coleman must go
A change in manager wouldn't change a thing for this club. Tactics have been shoddy of late and there is no doubt that this must change. The point is however that Coleman can change it, given freedom to work. We all know that. Anyone saying otherwise is just saying it for effect.
What can't be changed with the current people in place however, is the club's financial state. New life and some money at the top would give the manager's team the ability to actually work instead of constantly having to cut corners when signing players; thus ending up with over the hill players that no one else wants like Alan Rogers, Graham Branch, John Miles etc. Coley can do it, given the freedom to work. |
Re: Surely Coleman must go
I think everyone is aware of the constraints Coleman is working under, but you don't need money to work on basics at the training ground. Having 4 corner routines, or 3 different freekick routines costs nothing except time and innovation. When was the last time that you were really excited that we'd won a corner?

Re: Surely Coleman must go
It's true, Coleman's tactics have yet to develop to a standard where we can use what we have to the full in League 2. You would have to be blind to think otherwise. However I do not believe that Coleman is, as others have remarked, stuck in his ways. I think he is more than capable of doing the job properly given adequate backing from the top (adequate as in parallel with the standard we are supposed to be playing at).
With the remark about training, constantly moving training grounds for daft reasons doesn't help, though it isn't an excuse for lax methods of play. Given a fair chance, ie at least to the end of next season, Coleman can gain the experience required to do us proud - but only if his employers allow him to. One of my main worries will Stanley become just another League team with a rotation of 3 managers per year, never really achieving anything, merely surviving, until there is no more worse teams below you and the Conference comes a-knockin'. Stability is essential, however I realise that stability can become stale and new things must be done. I don't believe for one second that changing our management will bring about the tactical haven that everyone dreams of. |
