Time for a change now to save this season

Quoted from MuddyWaters

By December will be too late. The way we start our games is too slow, the way we start our season is too slow, the way our manager reacts to situations is too slow, the process for building a stadium is too slow. Everything we do is reactive not proactive. You don't need to look too far down the road to see what can be done on a very similar, if not smaller fanbase.

That's exactly my feeling. There never seems to be any urgency or drive about the place. How many managers last for 4.5 years in football today without achieving their objectives? He was brought in to get us back into the league and he has failed/is failing.

Quoted from grimps

We have so called fan representation on the board now , how would we go about calling for a vote of no confidence in him ?

The point of fan representation is to represent fans views. Just because people get their knickers in a twist on here and start poo stirring after every bad result doesn't mean the majority of fans feel that way. I don't pretend to know the view of the majority of fans and neither should you.

How was the fan representation gained again?  Was it something along the lines of....

'Sign all your shares over to me or I pull the funding from the club'

Oh okay then.

Twelve months later a position on the board for someone representing a group with no voting rights.  So what is the point?  If I were really cynical I'd suggest that a confidentiality agreement had to be signed before the individual was co-opted........but I'm sure that's not the case

I completely agree that the fans should have some 'voting rights' but was objecting to the assumption that the majority of fans want a change of manager. A voting system among Trust members would increase membership and avoid the voices of those who shout loudest being heard above others. Having said that you can't expect to have a vote on changing manager after every defeat.

Did you go to the game on Monday, of the fans that were actually left in the stadium as the ref blew his whistle a fair number of them were booing showing their displeasure, how many expected that so early in the season.

Many more results like that and the board will definitely be looking at Paul Hurst's position as according to a very good source from within the club, they were looking last season after our poor start then.

You dont need anybody in the club to tell you that

Reading these posts is like reading the fishy this time last year.

And the year before that the year before that and oh yes the year before that too...

What does that tell you ? It tells me nowt has changed and that the common denominator is a certain mr hurst.

or..... the common denominator is that this league is bloody hard to get out of. Last May we were a hairs breadth away from achieving that. Other teams have done it with money or with a style of football that I wouldn't want to be associated with.

What disappoints me is that a lot of fans have clearly moved into that mindset which states 'who cares what the football is like as long as we're winning' - I for one would care. I have always been proud to be a Town fan because our best managers have wanted to play football.

I think all Town fans (pro and anti PH) share the simple truth that we feel frustrated that we are down in this league when history would suggest we should be somewhere much higher up the pile. But we're not. Change Hurst now and we could be down here for many more seasons playing hoofball.

Jesus , paul hardly has us playing like barca does he !

And if it meant promotion i couldnt give a toss if it was booted 80 yards with 85 headers before it went in the back of the net.

The myth that we play football went out the window more than ten years ago , we dont and we havent since buckleys proper stints in charge.
