Why would any manager want to come to us?

Mon Mar 01, 2010 2:57 pm

- Got no money,

- Players with an attitude problem ( can't blame it all on Jones! )

- Will have to sell best players

- Only free transfers

- High expectations from the crowd

- Probably a low wage compared with Jones

Any takers?

i believe the players attitude does come from jones.......hes losing them, you only have to see an interview to see the guy lacks passion, drive, hides behind other factors, blames players........etc
if someone like neil warnock was in charge no one would be dull enough not to pull there weight and he would demand respect and not in an arragont manner portrayed by DJ.

True, but DJ is meant to be considering his options in the summer (Even though I'll be told I'm wrong on here!) and certain fans want him to go anyway.

I'm not sure what realistic options we have as a replacement. Nobody will really want to go to a club that are starting to struggle knowing they're going to have to sell a few of the best players

Yeah, after all DJ will turn down money on a guaranteed rolling contract, will resign rather than wait to be sacked and receive a massive payout.

Plus of course there are all those jobs out there for him, eh?

I mean a small team like Burnley ( who would go to them? ( copyright DJ) ) preferred a failure of a manager in Laws.

He'll not quit.

Looks like Swansea managed to pick up a decent manager who has and shows passion, so why not us. :ayatollah:

All Sousa has done is basically the same style of play as Martinez.

Defend, defend, defend. Pass, pass, pass. Hope to knick a goal.

Sousa isn't any better than Jones...

A lot of managers see bolshy players with an attitude as a challenge to their man management skills. It why such players always find a club; managers can see the good in them and think they can get the best out of these players as they see themselves as better than the last man.

And for all the reasons stated, does that make us worse than most of the Championship? Jones will find another club in the summer if he leaves us. Whatever we on here may think of him as fans, I would think he is still highly rated among other chairmen and also his peers
