Obviously they miss the days of not getting paid their wages.

This is pretty much exactly what I was talking about in reply to Mags. It's pretty obviously a 'joke', but it just feeds the toxicity.

I expect what Brogue is saying is right....he's got until the next international break in my opinion.

The argument that there have been a lot of squad changes doesn't wash..... I went to the Bolton game who have had a similar turnover of staff and watched a fully coherent side against a side of just about no hopers saved by a lucky deflected goal and poor finishing. Its pretty standard for league one sides to have multiple squad changes every season too.

Our tactics are woeful...who does the scouting on the opposition as it looks clear from what I've seen there is none....sides are so quick to work us out. Holloway had sussed out that a ball between Abrefa and Sticks would cause problems.

We desperately need a senior coach - sentiment promotions like Legs from the youth sides is a mistake.

I think we're at a solid 8/10 on the 'bed wetting scale' at the moment.

The more I look at the club over this summer the more I think of the Barclays adverts where all the 7 year olds are dressed like adults.

Agree the tactics are the biggest problem.

Hunt got the job on the basis of the takeover not having happened yet and providing an element of continuity for the younger players we were having to use. He continued the momentum we had under Selles last season, but it could well be similar to when Mark McGhee left the club: once a couple of the key players have left, the quality of the overall squad declined; we focused too much on older players and the management wasn't as good.

Certainly should be given until the next international break (at least), but there would need to be clear improvements in performances - not just results.
