Wellens gone by Christmas

Can anyone else see this happening?
Poor start to the season is edging closer to a spiral of losses and the drain on morale that comes with it.
Discipline is clearly an issue both on the pitch and on the sidelines. With senior pros being dropped then bought back into the side then possibly dropped again (I’m looking at you Mr Beckles) there’s danger of losing the dressing room as well.
It’s a recipe for disaster if things don’t change soon.
For clarity, I’m not saying that I want this to happen (nor do thank that it would necessarily be a wise thing) but I don’t think it’s beyond the realms of possibility.
Things change quickly in football.

Be interesting to see how he handles the pressure if our bad start continues but I hope he’s here for the whole year and probably beyond

Seems like a giant over reaction but that’s what this forum is for apparently.

Sorry Rev, as if we need more negativity on this board, we need positivity, not posts with a heading like this.
Sat can’t come quick enough, and i hope and believe we will get through this somehow.
But what I don’t want to read on this board, is posts with headings like this, we have a good manager in RW, and even if this run of bad form continues, we need to stick by our manager.
In RW we trust
COYO’s
Exeter beware of the wounded animal on Sat, we are hurting after tonight and need a result.

Stan1972 that's all he knows Negativity, he wouldn't know anything positive if it hit him on the head.
Drinks half empty pints aswell under a black cloud.
If he was in an Airplane film he'd be that Ted Straker guy.
Get the matches out.

Is there anyway we can amend the heading on this post or remove, as it doesn’t sit well with me, and I hate seeing it sitting there in the forum?
And I get it, the more we add our comments the longer it will sit at the top.

We played well tonight - thought we had a stonewall penalty first half when the defender threw himself at Pratley's shot and parried it away, second Red was nailed on silly challenge and stamp on Bonne. First Red was a joke though tangle of legs and no more than that. Wellen's won't walk away any suggestion he will be gone by Christmas is sh*t stirring by clueless idiots.

He's not alone is he Monkey Boy, CCH and a few others are peddling this crap, it's a sort of desperate way to get attention.

Wellens is the best thing to happen to our club.
This is a ridiculous thread

Top jes.....Hey, I'm not peddling any 'crap', as you put it. I'm saying, now that we are not top of the league and everything hunky dory, true colours are beginning to emerge now that things are not going our way. Our yellow and red cards record is atrocious and discipline needs to be sorted out pronto. And that can only be dealt with by the manager. Nothing there about peddling crap, just the present situation at the moment.

Don't really like giving this too much airtime as it's disrespectful to what Richie has done here but just to copy the comment in the other thread...
In reality neither of these threads are likely scenarios, just need to drag out the necessary wins to ease into mid-table to allow a further assessment of the squad for January and next summer

You got this part right at least. So instead of getting het up over a few losses, why not back the team and the manager instead of doom-mongering?

The only thing that concerns me about tonight is our lack of discipline . We can't afford to keep picking up all these cards , especially the red ones. We already have enough problems with players missing through injury so we don't need any suspensions as well. We must be getting the reputation for being a dirty side .

TBF our recruitment looks good . Only Pigott looks suspect . He's supposed to be our number 9 but has had no impact on any game I've seen him play .

Oh, and in answer to the opening post . Richie is an extremely good manager and I'm confident will sort things out on the pitch . As our injury problems clear up we'll get stronger.. However we've got to watch our lack of discipline before it really starts to cost us .

It’s a good job I have you on foe now, the crap that comes out of you is unbelievable, if you bother to read my post(which you obviously haven’t properly) you will see I said he will be gone by the end of the season through his own choice. Get your facts right before you go slagging other people off and that goes for your other gang members

I was thinking more about you gone by Christmas, that would be a far better result
