Knill out
He has to go. Bottom of the league, 4 pts adrift of safety, one win in about a million and no prospect of embarking on the sort of run we need if we are to pull clear - which with Knill in charge, we won't do.
Jol is currently 1/5 with skybet to leave his job. I would guess that Knill will be odds on as well. You'd be lucky to get even money on the double imo.wodger of awabia wrote:Does anyone know anything about betting? What about a double of Martin Jole ( Fulham ) & Knill getting the sack next week, what would the odds be?

There may yet be another great escape, even with Alan Knill in charge. But Martin Ling's period as manager was never this bad. Can't the board admit their mistake and bring back Ling? Or will they stay frozen like rabbits in the headlights with the squirrel still in charge...!! If things don't improve (we must win at least eight points in December) surely he must go by the New Year..
If we can't afford to sack him now, he has a job for life. Ridiculous!
He's done well out of us, good money, will get a years salary for doing nothing.
There is one last chance to try and save us. If he is not sacked now we should boycott the next game to force the board to get rid. I know this doesn't go down well with many of you but its an attempt to try and save the future of this club.
Message to the board, many of us have had enough!!

Three games ago I was still on the fence, prepared to give Knill more time. After the Plymouth game I was starting to feel more positive, I was still feeling that at 3:05 this afternoon. Now though, I've had enough.
If the choice is a boss with good man management skills, good tactical ideas or a boss the good contacts then I want the former. Knill has assembled a decent squad but without the ability to manage the team effectively he may as well have signed a bunch of blokes off the park.

Why can't we put him on "gardening leave" then we only have to find his monthly pay & no large pay off?Neal wrote:If we can't afford to sack him now, he has a job for life. Ridiculous!

The club doesn't have to sack him, demote him, nor promote him; just move him sideways..

I can't see the board doing anything now as it should have been done a month ago. I still think there is hope as I did not expect a result today. I just hope he does not make a load of changes again as it looked not bad against Plymouth. At least we won't lose next Saturday.Gullscorer wrote:The club doesn't have to sack him, demote him, nor promote him; just move him sideways..
As soon as we went 1-0 down I thought 'game over'. Knill has not shown the ability to change things at the right time during the game as today once again proves. Nor does he seem able to motivate the players. Time for him to go but I fear the board will not get rid soon enough. Sorry to say it folks, but we are conference bound.

Due to our teams inept performances we find ourselves bottom of the Football league and out of all cup competitions.
We are 4 points adrift from safety, if take into account our goal difference it is as good as 5 points. Another loss at home against Southend in 2 weeks time and it may well be an 8 point gap.
Falling gates before Christmas with "bottom of the league crowds" is a recipe for disaster.
The board needs to take decisive action and appoint a new manager ASAP. This will allow him the time to secure some much needed points and assess the squad before the January transfer window.

Life is like TUFC. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory.

I think everyone in the 'give it a few more games' camp needs to wake up really. Knill is taking us down faster than I ever thought possible. We still don't look like winning games anytime soon. 3 wins from 22 league and cup would be funny if it was somebody else's manager. Sadly it's ours. Have it your way board but prepare for the conference in the New Year because we're going not even going nowhere under this clitoris, we're going backwards. Today was another horror show with zero positives and we took NOTHING from Tuesdays game into this whatsoever. P*ss off please Alan, thankyou.
Strangely enough it was Pope Gregory the 9th inviting me for drinks aboard his steam yacht, the saucy sue currently wintering in montego bay with the England cricket team and the Balanese Goddess of plenty.

Ah yes, but, don't you realise the Gulls will win all their December games and Alan Knill will be named manager of the Month..
