    No, that's fair. But it's a 11 game run.. Would you have expected anything different at the beginning of the season with the two better players sold off. It's about managing expectations in light of what has happened over years. I don't think publicly calling for the managers head is the right thing to do.

    We’re in free fall and I think the only chance we have of not being in League One next season, is to bring someone else in to try and at least make us competitive for the last nine games.

    You said you didn't want numbers to get in the way of your point, so yeah, you're being selective in your appraisal. Success and failure in football is ultimately down to getting points from games.

    Whilst the club is being run as it is, it is only a matter of time anyway. I think the manager should be given a chance to repair his mistakes.

    I think Heimdallr is actually Grant McCann.

    Would you have expected anything different? **** yes.
    It's about managing expectations? No, it's about managing a squad of professional footballers
    I don't think calling for the managers head is the right thing to do? Really? He's proven himself to be a naive, stubborn, arrogant, delusional clown, who is ok with blaming the players for his **** selections & tactics.
    He should be given chance to repair his mistakes? How many ****ing chances? He's still not seeing that it's him and his tactics that's the problem. He continues to say he won't change things. ****s sake.

    I didn't want incorrect numbers to get in the way of my point. That's what I wrote.

    It will be interesting to see what our wage bill is for this season. Last Year we had a wage bill of 31 million and finished 18th
    Millwall 13 million finished 8th,
    Brentford 17 million ninth.
    Strangely Millwall haven’t sold a player for 20 million but have just soldiered on with little to no investment.
    This crap that all weve bought is league one players is ****ing annoying. We’ve bought potential in some cases, like most clubs do in this division.
    McCann showed weakness and a lack of confidence, to me and I said it back in September, by only signing players he knows or worked with. Fine in some cases but you need to trust your team, darnborough etc, in picking out players.
    This team even without Bowen and kamil can and should be slugging it out.
    You're struggling and conceding goals from crosses and corners and you leave your 6”5 centre back on the bench!!! GTF

    But it's not been taken out of the club it's been slowly repaying the massive £100 million debt we were in that was created in 2014 - at least the debt is manageable again - at one stage Hull City accounted for a significant proportion of Allams total net worth - I bet he was ****ting himself when Bruce got us relegated

    Every manager has been insulted and castigated by a percentage of participants on here since this forum came into existence.

    Well he's had 11 games so far. How long do you thiink is reasonable? Nice sentiment but at what price?

    There is a shrinking window of opportunity to try to change things, and I think any owner staring at a 50% drop in income will be looking quite closely at who else might be available with 9 games to go in the form were in.

    If we had 10 more points I'd give him time. We haven't so I don't see how we can.

    No individual is bigger than the club.

    I personally think he should **** off back to Donny, his tactics are ****e, his team selections confusing, his excuses pathetic.

    And most on here have no financial skin in the game or any professional experience of it. So that's where we are.

    "McCann showed weakness and a lack of confidence, to me and I said it back in September, by only signing players he knows or worked with"

    Adding to the growing list of 'I told you so', I said from the start he sounded very naive (stating exactly how we were going to play etc). I grossly underestimated how naive. He's a clown.

    On the one hand I support my football team, always want them to win and hope we stay up this season.

    But if we did stay up, what is next season going to be like? I see no signs that it’s going to be any better. We struggle to find capable managers. Our signings are hit and miss. Another season of toil might await us.

    Relegation could be the new broom we need. On the pitch and in the boardroom. High risk strategy, mind!

    But Millwall manage it
    Brentford manage it
    Preston too
    Plenty of other teams too
    Why do people think it’s so hard or impossible for us to do it?

    I'm not big on suggesting managers get sacked...and I'd never chant for it at a game no matter how **** the are (I don't think)

    ...but...we can't buy different players...we can't get different owners...so the only thing that could be changed is the manager

    And something need to change if we are to have any hope of staying up.

    Time to go GMc
