its not just the players . I think it goes deeper than that .When that first goal went in there was no fight in the team . The only spark seemed to be coming form Otis Khan again .
Personally think Otis needs to played behind the strikers. Too far away from the goal to many any impact.

Irrespective of that, the view that the others on the committee would give Jackett players he didn't want is bonkers. It's like people genuinely believe that other committee members are deliberately trying to sabotage the club.

Of course not. I’m sure they genuinely believe the players they’re putting forward are the right ones. But they’re not qualified to be doing so.

I’ve seen him multiple times in multiple positions and I still don’t know where he should be playing. He’s not a defender. He’s not a winger. He’s not a playmaker.

You can kind of see why it’s never worked out for him anywhere.

After starting so well, it's baffling the extent to which we've fallen apart (our last win was to thrash the divisions then form team), but we look like a team on course for relegation. Shame, as on paper Jackett was probably the best appointment we've made since I've been a fan.
The way we fell apart today has me thinking we are indeed heading for relegation .Oldham picked up a good point today away to Newport and now we're only 7 points outside the relegation zone. I wasn't a ''Kenny out "person until today . OK , we have injuries but where was the fight in the team after we went one down .

In the last five games, he's had enough good chances to have won the games for us, but he's missed every one.
He really is hopeless.
We look like never scoring again
That’s a massive oversimplification but I wouldn’t expect anything else.
It's my view.
You are a really arrogant c*nt
You are nothing, a nobody, a pathetic b*stard
Does it make you feel good to try and humiliate another person?
This is bullying, but I'm not a victim, so just f*** off and get a life
Serious over-reaction there. Best if you take a few days off to cool down.

We’ll see you next Tuesday.

We can’t even say “let’s see how he does with his own players” as 12 of the 17 today were players he signed

You've had it in for Drinan the moment he signed for us. And yet when we were firing in the early part of the season and he was banging in the goals you went as quiet as a church mouse. Never heard a word from you. Seems you just couldn't wait to pounce on him. Yes, he's been missing chances, but funny how no one else has been getting them? Every player, bar none, is rock bottom on confidence at the moment and yet you dig him out as being a big part of our problem. He works his socks off and his non stop running also forces defenders into making mistakes - in case you hadn't noticed that. He's one of the few in this dreadful side that has a spark and a bit of life in him. And for you to say 'he really is hopless' especially given the dire circumstances we are in at the moment, is totally misguided.
