I agree Peter. No point changing things this late in the season. You can look at it another way.
When we get stuffed at Arsenal at the weekend (sorry I am extremely scared about this one  8-[ ), DO'L resigns.
Step forward Sid & Kev McD. We then lose the next two at home to Stripey Filth and Dogsh*t. How would the fans react to them two then???

To be honest, after watching a bit of The Arse v Juve tonight, I will be happy if we keep the result this weekend down to 3 goals.

We should be concentrating all of our efforts into the two home games after that.

I know Legion, it's frightening to think what Arsenal can do if they play well. Especially after the way they played tonight.
I'm so pleased that I'm away this weekend running a Marathon. It will probably be a lot less painful.  8-[

Didn't we play them after they stuffed Inter 5-1, or some other devastating European display? and then they brushed past us as if we weren't there? and that was when we were average. Just wish i hadn't taken the piss about liverpool's 7 now....

I agree that we should be concentrating on the two games afetr that because, we can stay up, and put the Shit in the shit a little bit more. it is easy to see us lose all 3 though, isn't it?

Interesting point though JD, get stuffed by the Arse, sack the twat, get Kev and Sid in, they lose both the derbies...then what? I think that this would be too unsettling for new managers and should be avoided at all costs. So, believe it or not I have kind of moved into the Chris Smith camp. But not for the same reasons, I just think it is too late in the day to sack him. But, as soon as we're safe, or in the summer, shoot him.

I agree Peter and have sort of moved into the same camp as well. No point with the disarray we are in at the moment, putting some other poor sod in the firing line. It's O'Leary's mess and it up to him to keep us up this season.  

We should wait until the season is over and hold the inquest then. Then take the appropriate action (this hopefully being new rich owners and a new manager  [-o< ).

OK JD, if we lare safe after the A lbion game, would you sack the dick, and put Kev/Sid in before the Shit game? Two ways of looking at it, if they lose, yes we'd be upset about it, and the team might not have a good run in under the new manager. Then start the season afresh , maybe new owners, with money. I'd prefer an experienced manager to be able to make good use of it.

The other thing is if we were to win the derby, the fans would be highly supprotive of the new regime. 3 games to go and we'd be picking the positives out of everything. Now, if we were to have new owners would the popularity of Kev/Sid keep them there? If so, would you trust them with a healthy bank balance to be able to pull in the right names? Also, would they be able to sell the team-not the club- to better players? Or would we need an experienced manager to be able to do that?

Which is preety much what I've been saying, to much attempted ridicule, for the past few months. We've got the summer to make a cool headed and rational appraisal of the situation why rush into something just to appease a few whingers?

I see you ignored the rest of JD's sentence which went on to state that he wants the manger out. Funny that.

Because we are the workers. You day light dandies only want to know when we get to a landmark score. So, off you pop and we'll see you all back on Page 197/8.

The full stop after 'inquest then' means that the sentence has finished, Peter.
