With three tough fixtures coming up who thinks this will ultimately spell the end for Slade?? I see us still picking up points from them three games, how many and against who I have no idea but you get the feeling a few will involve zero :sladeout:

Dalman and Choo are not fans of Slades,so it also depends on how much Tan still listens to them? or is Tan too stubborn to listen to them as it was Tan himself who appointed Slade against all others advice.

If we can get 6 out of 0'points yes, maybe even 4 out of 9, anything less then it won't look good.

Wishful thinking by you all methinks.Your better off blaming Trollop or the tea lady.Tan's revenge for your disrespect is slow and painful. :lol:

I hope he doesn't last until Saturday let alone December :sladeout:

Has to go sooner rather than later so the new manager can get familiarised and bring in some of his own players in the upcoming window.

Beat Reading and we're back in the mix. We really do have a fickle fanbase. :sladein:

Don't be surprised if we win all three 1-0, with most people asleep.

cmon Jon, it's not about that it's looking at the bigger picture and the manner of how things are going game after game. I would like nothing more than 3 points Saturday. :thumbup:

If the results are coming in and we're achieving play off status who cares who our manager is and how we're playing? We're Cardiff City not Manchester United

He's stubborn but he won't tolerate us going backwards. He will also be cheap to get rid of. I just wish he would have a go, he didn't even tinker end of last season. A school boy and a league one player up front will not get you goals in the championship

I agree we aren't Man Utd but it's been painful to watch, frustrating with the lack of invention. Done a great job albeit with the most boring football I can ever remember and results will just about keep the fans at bay but with the way things are going it's going to implode. :sad7:

Ultimately Tan can't afford to keep him.
Struggling to get bums on seats, will only get worse with slades unique brand of football.
Tan already bank rolling the club, will only get worse with worse attendances.
Dave Jones stuck by his 442 but at least most of the time the team played entertaining football.

I will admit defeat if this small run continues but Slade's not doing that bad of a job. It winds me up how fans can react like this when we're 3 points off a play off spot.

I understand where your coming from, I just think it's the way it's gone. Had we been playing decent football and found ourselves even 5 points off play offs fans can accept that although will always get moaners. It's the manner of things.

I'm not going to lie the football is f*cking dire, but I'm basing my support on where we are in the table. We're doing "okay" and I don't believe in sacking a manager for doing an "okay" job this early on in the season.

Not everybody is going to agree, that's life. My opinion was he did a remarkable job last season under the circumstances steadied the ship brought a togetherness and correct attitude. But he should have been thanked and let go in the summer, I did think we were making progress both with style and results and maybe fans frustrations are at tipping point. But make no mistake a defeat Saturday will see the majority turn. He has to change things, injuries are part of football as is changing things when they aren't working yet he persists with same players. Nooney has been poor since the prem, revell isn't to standard yet they continue

This small run amounts to 10 games played since the begining of September. Just 13 points from these games is closer to relegation form than promotion. I would be very surprised if we are not in the bottom half of the table by the end of this month. Slade will never take the club forward, but I think the root cause of the problem lies a lot higher up.

Tans own London Solicitors recommended him and said he never spends money and can wheel and deal in the transfer market.
