A draw would not even have papered the cracks

Sat Oct 31, 2020 5:16 pm

After the disgrace of a footballing performance from so called professionals in the first half, only a win would have given any crumbs of comfort.

The fact we could only score with the aid of QPR's misdemeanours and the referees decisions to award spot kicks adds insults to injury.

Harris Out, absolutely. Out of his depth trying to take a team to the Premier. Eddie Howe in.

Tan out, happily willing to make Harris scapegoat. He knows we don't have quality, and clearly content to keep fingers crossed that a skeleton thin squad might get the odd win here and there which might just appease fans now and again, whilst not giving the 'customers' any value for money. Hammam in.

Not got a problem with opinion, but if not Tan, then an owner with footballing knowledge and passion.

Would you agree Tans tenure should come to an end?

When we pulled it back Two all I thought great draw better than a defeat but I just had feeling qpr would get a winner and it was hell of a goal we haven’t won there since 2010

An owner with footballing knowledge? So why employ a manger if you want the owner to be in charge of the football side of things?
I can’t see how a terrible on field performance like the two this week can come back on the owner. Who’s more than backed the previous 2 mangers in the transfer markets and has kept putting his money into the club.

Simple wind up we had hamman bollocks recently and many times previous... wouldnt buy a 2nd hand
car from him.... only get a new owner when someone is prepared to pay tan a reasonable amount for club hardly likely in todays climate... as for new manager yes to Howe but got up sack Harris 1st and despite crap performances think wont take much to see different Outlook on things starting next two home games...

i think just as the manager has to take responsibility for results and performances... so do the people who appointed the manager have to take some responsibility for choosing him... having said that its always a bit of a gamble... but like most things you get what you pay for... and maybe this gamble was a bigger gamble than we should be taking... my view is the manager is THE most important person at the club.. yet this wasnt the first cheap option to manage a team that cost and earn an absolute fortune...
