Not good is it, not good at all.  I think he'll walk too.

Just walk away, Remi. You're not to blame.

Sing it, Levi.



And when we see the sign that points one way
The Football League gets nearer every day
DON'T WALK AWAY, REMI
You're all we've got to give us hope
We know the squad is shit and can't win a game
You're not to blame

I don't think he will walk now - he's got too much about him.

End of the season? Probably.

Spend differently? As in less money? As in scouting better? As in what?

I wonder what they told him when he took us on. He is a very straight speaker and if Lerner/Fox/Hollis are not prepared to back him even for one signing I believe he will call it a day and very soon too.

They've bullshitted him. You can see it in his body language and face that he's not happy. Would you be happy getting pelters in your job, trying to work with a lollipop as a hammer after being told they'd let you get a new hammer?

We've all heard Fox speak enough by now. The bloke talks out of his arsehole. Football is not his game and he's been a complete failure in his role at this club. We've heard Hollis come in, and to be honest, he doesn't fill me with any confidence either. He's another bean counter who will be doing everything on the cheap as much as possible.

They talk of spending differently? What does that mean? We can't spend less money really. We've spent very little net over the past 3 seasons and the results have got even worse. We've lowered the wage bill significantly and the results have got even worse. I don't know where they are wanting to take this, how much meat can you trim of the bones?

We've approached a goal keeper who can't get a permit, approached Michu who has been out of the game and is in bits and pieces. Does anyone think this sounds like a plan or people who know what they are doing? We don't. We are lurching around aimlessly because they don't have a fucking clue between the lot of them.

If he does walk then we descend into even more chaos. Trouble is do then ones in charge actually realise that.

Just watched the press conference clip on the website. Garde looks well cheesed off.

So move away, Remi blue, before this shit, shit club turns around and swallows you.

A crap owner, was the cue, for the legendary things that you do,
Behind the Trinity stand, with egg on your face, behind the old sadness factory too.

He's obviously incredibly frustrated at the lack of incomings, but doesn't sound like someone about to throw in the towel. Let's hope we can all find some 'inner strength' to help us get through the next four months of watching Kozak and Gestede playing up front.

Might as well forget all this tippy tappy midfield nonsense that goes back and forth at a snails pace and creates nothing and just full on long ball lob the ball in towards the area and see what happens.

I bet another cosy ring side seat for Canal of a Saturday afternoon looks a lot more tempting at the moment

Even by their standards, it's astonishing that the board have not backed Garde at all.

It's like calling the fire brigade out to your home to put a fire out, only to slash all their hosepipes when they arrive.

I honestly would not blame him if he walked at the end of the season.  Why should he have their cock up as a stain on his career?

I suspect he will not be in charge after this season. If he is then brilliant it will be because we have restored some pride by winning games, but my gut feeling isn't good.

Encouraging words from Garde:

"I am disappointed because I know I represent this big club. I am not coming in front of the fans with good news. I always said I will not run away. I feel the way I am working, and the way I see the club, I feel the support.”
