What is so galling for fans is the manner of defeats. Sloppy, individual errors have been coupled with collectively dire performances and despite having a talented squad, the manager isn't getting the best out of it right now. In fact, it's the complete opposite.

I agree Annis. There seems to be no system and when a goal is scored there seems to be lots of looking around as if nobody really knows who’s fault it was.

if he was going to get a response from the players ,surely he would have had it by now....its getting worse by each game...

its like they are not interested...i am afraid this squad needs a major overhaul...they need to sart now with anew manager and give him 2-3 windows to rebuild...but it needs someone with with a bit of nous...Pearson..Hughes..Eddie Howe ..David Wagner or someone of their ilk
not another Slade /Trollope or Harris....Please not Bowen or Cook

If you are going to get beat, at least make em work for it.
Something we have failed consistently to do.
We have rolled over in many losses ....no passion or fight.
And worst of all, no pride in the shirt.
Closing down , chasing back etc are the very basics at all levels of football and it’s not just down to the manager , some of these players look like they are simply pick up their wages.

I posted as much myself on a different topic,yes the buck stops with the manager,but the lack of effort/pride in the shirt is pissing me off too,and that lies with them,not harris.

I do think he should go,after giving him time,time which has surely run out? I,like almost all on here want to see 100% effort,skill comes secondary,but to appear to not give two f@cks for the shirt,not on!!
