I don't like to say I told you so, but............

DOOMED!!!

Both Owers and the playing staff need to go. There is no point sacking Owers now, its too late. If this was a properly run club I would expect the owner to start looking for Owers replacement now, but I wouldn't be surprised if Owers actually stays since according to Southampton Dave he was Osborne's choice, which beggars belief since Osborne doesn't know the first thing about football.

....You told us so..

Whilst I agree, I think the man at the helm has to face the biggest scrutiny. Tactics, motivation, players signed, discipline are just some of the things under his remit and if the team are failing then the leadership has a lot to do with it.

Like Mr Osborne. my garden gnome knows nothing about football.....but he is a bit more tactically aware than our current management and probably more mobile than one or two of the players.

Check yourselves out in the mirror in the chaging rooms before you leave lads yeah? Those few hairs out of place need addressing. That's the most important thing.

That's the problem with players these days. they're being paid to play football but care more for their sharp haircuts and how they look to the girls. football has become just a job for them now. they don't really care as much as they used to back in the 60's or even 70's. and they are only in the semi professional league. yet behave as if they are premier league players.. no lads. your bottom. you're no better than part-timers. and at the moment. your not much good are you. yes, you might put in a bit of effort. but it's not 100%. imagine your playing Manure every day and you might be halfway to being a good team.

He was Osborne's choice because the wanted to ensure he had someone he could control. Like the General Manager. Nicholson had spirit at least so he had to go at the first opportunity. Owers is Osbourne's clone in a tracksuit.

Maybe your garden gnome should send his CV into plainmoor.

Instead of going to the next home game, why doesn't everybody head to Osbornes house and spend 90 minutes outside voicing their anger. That would disrupt his idyllic village life afternoon.

The worrying aspect to that is he may get the job. Or the current General Manager may sit on him. Either way, Gerald is staying where he is.

Well the fat lady - who arrived some time ago - is just having a quick gargle and then its - over!

Not too much longer to put up with this sh*t. Looking forward to not having to support such a shower and not caring about the future.

Let's be frank here , all of the teams around us need not fear us one jot, we are that bad , we constantly beat ourselves with clueless pointless mistakes that are usually ironed out in youth team football, why oh why do we have to support such shite, somebody said a while ago its the hope that kills, well for me its not the hope its the total ineptness of the tosser put in charge of the day to day running, he's weak, clueless & feckin gutless it'll be interesting to hear the sound bites coming out of Plainmoor next week but I wan't to hear it from Harrop not Owers ultimately he is responsible he has been put in charge, expect to hear MUNCH MUNCH MUNCH , coming from Harrops office we'll get nothing else from him.

Or we could take our places in the family stand next home game and confront Harrop..............No? Oh ok then.

Get rid of Owers and Khul. Put Gowling in charge with some of the senior players. They cant do much worse.
