.....And i don't think getting rid of Les is the answer
I have a feeling of irony that Exeter will be our undoing, and we will be down by then...yes, even with 7 games remaining after that, unless LP is gone
Most of the managers out there we can't afford. Of those we can afford, they don't want the job (can't blame them) and then there's just the ex-managers left, sitting in the stands waiting for Les to go.
Which doesn't leave you with much choice really.
I was saying that he has done a sterling job, no money, very small crowds and not much experience.Roachyfella - if you think Les doing a sterling job consists of one win in the last 19 games or whatever it is then you must have very low standards. Yes he did well to keep us up - but that is history now.
Maybe I am being overly optimistic but I still dont think we will go down. I wont say we are too good to go down, as recent results have shown that may not be the case, but I still think we have enough to stay up.
Les has to go now. Time is up. And for those who say who could take the job with our budget and Les' wages...there will be managers out there.
Dont forget lower league managers especially still have bills to pay and will accept I reckon that many clubs these days would have a small budget. But they still need work. Below is a list from the LMA website that although contains some probably beyond our club and some with not spectacular records, arguably something must change, at least so PJ can say he has tried. I dont go along with all this he doesnt care nonsense.
Liam Watson - Southport
Mickey Mellon - Fleetwood
Jimmy Harvey
Phil Brown
Billy Davies
Paul Ince
Iain Dowie
Dave Jones
Ronnie Moore dare I say ?
Dave Challinor ?!
Before people start saying things like Mellon etc wouldnt move I know all this but there are options out there that are worth a try, rather than doing nothing,
PJ tried hard I believe to get someone in after Barnes got the boot and he got no-one. What's changed since then?
Tartantranmere, your telling me that accrington can afford and can attract a new manager and yet we wouldnt be able to? i think that is wrong.
If les was to be sacked or goes at the end of the season there would be quite a few people interested in the job. Keith Hill would have took it last time if he was allowed to bring his backroom staff in.
