Regardless of what happens we're likely starting all over again in 12 months and we're making the exact same mistakes like when we gave Pulis one year too long. Whether you like Warnock or not it's just a fact that the new manager next year will be lumbered with Warnock style players instead of just making the managerial transition now when the squad is ready for rebuilding. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

But who is going to come in now. Next season we might be in a better financial situation and how many warnock style players will the new manager be lumbered with heâs said he wants to bring in about 9 players but most of them will probably be loans.

Then we should choose a manager who can get the most out of what we have. If we donât have players for tika taka then letâs not appoint a manager who wants to do that. Give the job to a Blackwell and then we have the consistency we are craving even if itâs not the football some want. Warnock could give us solid foundations that we can build on and have evolution of our playing style. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Weasel 965 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Give the job to Blackwell might be one of the worst shouts I've read on here. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Robin Johnson 612 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 See Matt Smith is staying at Millwall. One less spud for us thankfully. Was linked to us donât know if it was just paper/ agent talk. I am glad he is staying put! Link to post Share on other sites

To fill our ranks with Warnock style players and then do a complete about face is idiotic.  Itâs exactly the thinking that has got us here. It may not be attractive to some but I couldnât give a *** we were attractive most of the time under AK and itâs some of the most exciting times we have had in recent years. It was a massive improve on the purposeless possession under Mogga. We cry for consistently and then cry when itâs suggest we go for consistency. I think a Blackwell* is exactly what we need if we want to be consistent and not endure another round of flip flopping.   * notice I have twice said a Blackwell. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Changing Times 12,218 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Why don't be appoint a manager who plays some football, and use that as the consistency to build upon then? Isn't that the logical approach? Surely the best 'a Blackwell' would be the actual Blackwell who is already here, or maybe you didn't mean him, just someone like him but not him? đ¤Śââď¸ Link to post Share on other sites

If we were going to do that though the logical time to do it was at the end of the season and bring someone in with virtually a clean slate. If we do it next season then we are just repeating history by filling our squad with a certain type of player and bringing in a manager who plays completely different. The cycle then continues. And you would be the first to write 12 paragraphs explaining why this was idiotic. The logical thing to do then when we replace Warnock is not to flip flop but appoint someone with a similar style who could evolve the team. as for âa Blackwellâ you can read (well second time round after I pointed it out). If we have Warnock in charge this coming season the next season I think we should appoint âa Blackwellâ.  1 Link to post Share on other sites
Snowblind 1,711 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 See Ashley Barnes has been fined for drink driving. Broken the law? Over 30? Limited technical ability? Nailed on we'll sign him now. đ 5 Link to post Share on other sites

I think most of the disagreement is because people fear Blackwell & Jepson will just deliver more of the same as we've had with Warnock. Given there is at least some probability that one of them will inherit the post when NW retires, I think we should brace ourselves accordingly. I'd like to think they would be able to improve the team...and performances...but I wouldn't be confident enough to put money on it.  I guess we also have to factor in how attractive a club like Boro would be to managers who want to play exciting, attacking, skill-based football...but who would need a decent transfer budget to make it happen.  1 Link to post Share on other sites
