Because presumably it was the EFL that decided that the new season should start in September.

So what? If we play in the league then we must follow the rules, which we know in advance. If we have problems then we must overcome them.

They don’t pay for the rehabilitation of injured players, nor for any operations that are needed. So why Covid tests?

The EFL should make money available for ALL clubs to test ALL staff now before it gets silly.

A tad sanctimonious, but very accurate.

What a load of rubbish. You really should get out more & into the 21st century.

If you’ve got a spare £12-15M you might have a chance.

Scunnymatt, just because I ask what proof there is that Swann is involved in picking the team does not mean that I support him.

A number of people on here post rubbish and yet it gets repeated and becomes “fact”. No proof, no logical reasoning.

My view is that Swann is unable to identify a decent manager. It is onvious that we need some experience at this level and we don’t have it.

He can’t be blamed for all the dross that has been brought in. Numerous managers over the years take the blame for that.

People who say that no-one with experience would take the role are wrong. There are a number of unemployed managers who could take it on.

Sadly, I think we will be stuck with Swann for some time. He hasn’t learnt much over the last few years, let’s just hope he has some sort of epiphany in the near future.

The clown clearly thinks you can cut corners in these leagues and we are getting found out consistantly…cox is just another string puppet who is going to do as he’s told. Shambles from front to back and the veg munchers were taking the piss enjoying the day out. Embarrassing once again!

What do you know that we don’t? Do you have any proof at all that Swann is involved in team selection and/or tactics?

Thought not…..

[IronIronIron]

It is not too soon to change the manager.

We need experience.

Certainly going backwards on attempts, so average of 2 shots on target per game, and averaging 0.6 goals a game, so it’s riveting stuff in our opponents half and something needs changing, and it’s not all the forwards fault, playing without wingers we aren’t getting enough crosses in for the big lads and our so called wing backs rarely go over the halfway line, still trying to work out what position Gillihead is playing in this formation, also why did we change Taylor and Vincent positions because we were woeful second half, also Rory was more back to form with that punch for the second goal.

Mick, you are being a little unfair. Your stats do not include attempts that were blocked. Many of these would have been on target.

That said, we are still very poor.

And a ban for fansy, for foul & abusive language

[IronIronIron]

He will be very happy not to be memtioned on here at the moment. There only seem to be negative comments.

[IronIronIron]

It’s the managers fault that he can’t put in consistent performances?

How do others manage it?

He can be excellent but, as Les highlighted, over all he is below average.

[IronIronIron]

He’s had 4 clubs & more managers. Perhaps he isn’t good enough. He certainly isn’t on a regular basis.

[IronIronIron]

Managed relegation 🤣🤣🤣.

Here we go again!!

He could think that, but I am struggling to see why he would think that given the performances we’ve seen so far in those positions, especially with Eisa. Gillead has played alright, but I still feel he’s more suited to the wing.

Also, this does give some evidence against the common denominator of the strategy/team being totally controlled by the chairman. You’d think if Swann was the one calling the shots he’d have had continuity between managers in term of playing position. However, Cox is playing Eisa and Gillead in different positions. This gives some suggestion that this is a managerial decision.

There is no proof whatsoever that Swann has been choosing the team. Where he is guilty is in choosing poor managers.

[IronIronIron]

Top half.

[IronIronIron]

So you are having a go at the club when you don’t even know if Turan has gone back to Germany?

Do you expect a report on every single squad member whenever they do something?

God knows what you’ll be like when the season proper starts.

Should we not consider anyone who has ever had a criminal record? If they have served their time then surely they should be welcomed back in to the fold.

Does this extend to players as well? What about staff? Fans? Where does this all end……..

It’s on its way NI. I do hope that the Club get a resonable chunk from the selling price – it is quite expensive.

[IronIronIron]

At £11.99 for a facemask the Club could make a small fortune. I’d happiy buy one or two from the club, but not from some money grabbing website.

Also, Bishops Finger is correct, they should be licensed to use the logo. someone needs to follow this up as we could be owed a good few quid.
