With 14 games to go, not with 14 games played.





I.e. When turnaround is more than difficult.?    Good management is trying to predict ahead of the curve, not behind.
Management should hear out PH's plan, if he's got one, and either come out and say they like the plan and it looks good, to stop speculation, "and where in it together spirit". Or pull the trigger and let someone else have a good shot at it. I.e. assess the team, adjust the play, and if need be, have time to make changes in the January window. Waiting for a 6-0 drubbing so it eases the "pain" of decision-making, will make it unplanned, kneejerk, and could make the situation worse.
29 hrs to go for the Colchester result. UTM

The longer we dither, the good candidates will be settling into new jobs elsewhere.

A minimum of 4 points required this week for me and then it's squeaky bum time. Hurst struck early with the initial signings and then procrastinated all summer over some good players who were ultimately out of our reach. The result is a threadbare squad through the spine. If results don't drastically improve, we can't afford for him to procrastinate all January too.

Most would argue that we looked like relegation contenders when Holloway left at Christmas but you’re effectively saying we’d not be in a relegation battle till some time after the January window closes?

Think we need to act before a window not after it.

I just had radio humberside on in the car, and the presenter said he didn't think the owners would act till we were in the bottom two, if it ever got that bad, quoting Hurst has "credit in the bank"

I hope that is his personal opinion and not insider knowledge as that would be a dereliction of duty if we continue to falter.

I am sure they are more savvy than that.

I think a defeat at Slough next week could be the tipping point.

It would be remarkable. We don’t play them till November 5. Hoping for fireworks in our favour
