Sack KJ

Post by Frogger »

1 goal and no wins in 2 months. Can’t keep a clean sheet.
Bizarre signings, predictable and rigid tactics.
I think it’s time we moved this fella on and quickly.

What a massive disappointment he has been. I really thought he could have taken us forward but he has this squad in full reverse.

I’d get rid of Ling first. The windows been our downfall really. But Kenny can’t be far behind unless there’s a dramatic change

The board need to swallow there pride and get him gone, we played 4 centre backs tonight when we haven’t won in 2 months it’s mind blowing, the team has lost all identity and the football is a disgrace!

What's anyone going to do with the squad we have here? Brought in a bunch of NL kids in the window, once again midfield non existent tonight.

Ross had more points on the board this time last season and he got sacked.

Fighting performance tonight against an in form team. KJ may have been saved from clearing his desk tomorrow.

I'd definitely like a forward thinking DoF, ideally someone who is analytically minded and more in touch with the modern game.

But that won't happen yet. So it's a case of do you want Ling involved in hiring the next manager now/near futurw or should we wait until the summer before we clear decks and a new DoF recruits the manager?

Anybody considering our injury crisis. List all the players not available. It’s a long one.

Perspective needed.

Failing to reinforce our midfield with experienced players was criminal

I had high hopes for Jackett but baffled by his team selections and signings. Four centre halves, Kyprianou and Young (both national league standard) and Nouble up front. Ruel surely would be better. Oh well, on to Saturday….

My perspective is we've scored twice in ten games, barely registering any points.
Our main strikers are fit, as is first choice keeper and most of the defence.
Injuries is just an excuse.

This is 100% KJ's fault, his negative football, stubbornness, unwillingness to make subs or play an attacking formation, etc etc.

Not since the Italians have I felt so negatively about an orient side.

Ross had six more points than Kenny does now after as many games and he was hounded out the club

Sixteenth is a joke

It’s results that count. Ross had fighting performances but it didn’t save him

Normally I would agree with that statement but these guys are nowhere near good enough, not even close. It’s very clear that the team were over achieving and relying on a few decent players James, Archibald. Drinan and Smith have gone back into their normal skill level (poop). As for the tactics the manager played 4-4-2 tonight but decided that he would play it with 4 Centre backs!!!! Either he has lost the plot or the squad is not good enough. Either way that’s KJ’s fault he had a transfer window to get the correct players in, even if it was just a left back and a right back. Instead he brought in a midfielder from bottom of the table Vanarama team, a youth player from Derby and some fella who played ok for 3 weeks at Walsall.

Anyone is better than KJ anyone. Can’t get much worse than 1 point and 1 goal in f*cking ages of football. I reckon I could at least equal that record by just picking the squad myself!!!

Yes , that’s shocking. While I didn’t expect to walk promotion with Kenny at the helm , I didn’t expect a relegation fight either. We keep losing so that’s well and truly on the cards .

You probably could . All you’d have to do is play 4-4-2 and play players in their proper positions .

It goes to show that we definitely miss Archibald and James. Our wing play tonight was non existent.Young inexperienced. Pratelys legs gone.Reilly comes on for the 20 mins and does not touch the ball. Frank Noble rubbish .Khan cannot pass the ball more than 5 yards and runs into players.Season over and if we don’t watch out we could be in a relegation fight.

Last season, we played 4-3-3 week in, week out, and the fans were screaming for Ross, and then Jobi to change it to 4-4-2, but they didnt

This season Jackett has changed it several times, including to 4-4-2, but its still not achieving results. The players IMO are not good enough, apart from a few, who seem to be the injured ones.

The problem is, the recruitment is dire, and has been for a few years.

Who's responsible?..I would say the transfer committee headed by Ling. Thats where your vitriol should be headed IMO
