Genuine question for people backing the manager ( u know who u are )

if the results & the standard continues…..

how long before u realistically turn?

(for the record I don’t see him turning it but I’m genuinely interested in how long)

I would say if we dropped in to automatic relegation spot

Hola!!,  enjoyed AJ's interview and managed to stay awake with the questions from Raman Bhardwaj of STV.  Thought he defended himself well and made good valid points.

I am very much in give him a chance and he needs players to up their game also.......hang on.........'ehhh 2 aperol spritz pour favor'........and that's just for Mrs grizzly 🤪😎😎

Rumours doing the rounds of significant player discontent behind the scenes.  Not a good look, if true.

Not good at all but not surprising if true. It would certainly explain the dismal performances and several players looking devoid of interest and direction during games.

The sooner this charade ends the better for all concerned, AJ included. No harm to the guy but he is out of his depth and it’s not going to work out.

We’ve all had shite managers at work, so we know how this ends if the rumours are true.

[grizzlyg]

All very sad if true and really where is max and other coaching staff plus SOD and McGinn? They should be in there helping AJ. I have no sources but not hard to work out who the trouble makers would be.

Hopefully AJ can get us a win today as I still think its far too early to be talking about sacking him and would make us look a laughing stock and not attractive to any potential replacements.

Anyway must dash.........ehhhh dos cruzcampo pour favor 🤣

All it takes Dave is some random comment ie "AJ has lost the dressing room" and it grows arms and legs as it makes its way on social media, then some other random post appears quoting it as gospel from an impecable clib source.

We will know for sure if and when the sacking is announced, till then its made up BS.

Quite a few players wanting out in January. P & B also worth a read this morning.

Far too many people hoping that the unrest is true instead of getting behind the team and the manager. We have got some amount of wallopers in our support when things are not going well.

I've heard similar rumours from completely independent sources Allan. Names of individual players very similar, which lends credence to rumours - I won't mention them. Not described in "lost the dressing room" terms though.

If we can move them on then let them go, we only want players who want to be at the club and fully commit to what they are asked to do, there is no room for passengers.

 

[wellsince75]

Not sure it’s ever than binary in terms of reasons for leaving . 
 

We don’t see what’s on one inside the club . 
 

be interesting to see what happens between now and January - happy path is go on a sustained run of good performances and results but time will prove out
