It’s not the fact we are going down that gets me It’s the way we are going down without a fight The players are just sitting back and going through the motions This is a serious situation we are in for the future of our club We could go down again or be stuck in league one for years
This guy should still be our manager. Wish we'd stuck with him all the way since 2012.
I think the whole situation with Neill Warnock shows how inept our board really are. Not only did they sack him for the useless Mark Hughes but when they had a chance to get him back after a spell as our caretaker they let him go for JFH.
Warnock is a leader and motivator who can make ordinary players believe they are much better than they actually are. He has an ability to make players want to run through brick walls for him.
Les and the board are frightened of a manager like Warnock because he won't suck up to them but says things as they are.
Over the years our board have tended to appoint nice guys who probably say the right things but lack any character. For me both Critchley and Ainsworth are the same and lack the fire and brimstone needed when the going gets tough. At a time when we needed someone to give us a spark and some fight, Les appointed someone who he thought would appease the fans calling for his head.
Clive Whittingham on the Loft for Words site summed up our owners beautifully when he wrote,
We’re killed by their incompetence and kept alive by their benevolence”.
Huddersfield are 2-0 up against Blackburn already Absolutely incredible job Warnock has done They were dead and buried when he first got there and now they are as good as safe from relegation

That is risky on their part sacking ince on paper the only game i can see them realistically winning is the wigan game in their remaining fixtures but who knows in the championship,you get all sorts of weird results
Personally think a bit harsh on ince He was flying with them at the start of the season,the same as we were with Beale Remember reading would be as good as safe now without the 6 point deduction If we stay up it may be purely down to a other teams FA fine rather than our own results

I can sort of understand it as their bouncing along the bottom too, but I felt Ince had done a good job there.
Seems like another manager who has had to pay with his job because of incompetent owners who got their club a 6 point deduction and pushed them into a relegation position.
Reading are trying to do a QPR by bringing in an ex player who was a crowd favourite in the hope he will give them a boost. Let's hope he's as successful as Ainsworth with just one win in his first 5 matches because that might help us to remain a Championship club.
