I think we have to accept he isn't going anywhere. We can disagree all we like but there has been zero indication from KT that he doesn't back KC.
I think this just goes to show how much KT cares about the club, from a half finished stand on one side to broken windows and peeling paint on the other.....as for the style of play and quality of squad, they kind of all go together.

Agreed.

Might as well lock this thread.

The annoying thing is that we are capable of playing a different way...we've seen fleeting glimpses of it over Curles tenure, playoffs, Burton, a small number of league games.....so it is possible.
Whether we can play a different way with the personnel we have at the moment is more debatable, we do not have the leaders in the team this season that we did last season. We do have players who need to be allowed to express themselves more...i'm thinking Holmes, Watson, Adams to name three. We know what Holmes can do, or at least could do, but he's not allowed to do that in the current setup under the current manager.

Thats whats got to change.....we have a sprinkling of quality within the squad, we have a small amount of experience within the squad, for gods sake Keith, just change the mindset a bit. Stop being so concerned with the opponents strengths and stop building your whole system around stopping the opponents from playing. Its not working!! Lets play our own game and let the opposition worry about us for a change.

What I cant quite fathom is that when someone posts well founded comments based on and/or including :  loss of the sides spine, pandemic and lack of suitable personnel ; (GPC) simply proposes that the team be allowed to express themselves and even bring up the Ricky H red herring! It needs a more sympathetic even lateral study.... Clearly at the moment we are lacking players with sufficient quality or adaptability! Fairly well known at the moment you dislike the current Manager so hoping that does not entirely influence your opinion.

Why did you wait three weeks before coming back with this personal snipe?

Read my post again and get some of it into your thick head....I said there is quality within the squad, I said there is experience in the squad, as for the Holmes "red herring"....is that what it is? A red herring? Do you have proof of that?

Hoping your dark very claret tinted spectacles are not influencing your opinion.......if you even have one that is?

As a matter of interest where is the snipe?  I am afraid you have missed the point completely. I don't think there is sufficient quality at all let alone suitable experience - like McCormack and Goode for example. Red Herring on the RH; don't really need proof other than his recent displays! Its just an opinion that's all. I have the misfortune not to share yours  Shocked

Isn't it usual that when a chairman says he backs the manager that the manager is on the way out?

It is. Not even backed him either though? He's just said nothing about it.

Manners - you could send KT a message on Facebook? Reckon that might get your views heard at least bud.

Dear oh dear!!
I asked you to read my original post again....and its obvious you didn't!

For reference I said there was "a sprinkling of quality in the squad"..... are you going to argue with me on that one? Especially seeing as you've just added Mitchells name to a list of League One quality players in a post on another thread?
I said also that there was "a small amount of experience in the squad"..... are you going to argue on that one too? Are you saying that Sheehan, Adams, Holmes, Watson, Harriman...even Hoskins...are not experienced?

RH...."his recent displays"?? What minutes are you talking about? I thought it had been accepted that he hadn't played many minutes for us, had been played in an unfamiliar role, is working his way back from a career threatening injury...... what sort of displays were you expecting?

So no, I don't think I missed the point at all!

As for the personal snipes, well saying I "simply proposed"...... really? I said we can perform better than we have been doing and cited a number of games (games to which you have made reference to in the past when you are defending Curle)
Also you have to put the "well known that I dislike Curle" comment.....and? So what? I'm not alone!
You are alleging that it is somehow influencing my opinion? No s*** sherlock..... I'm not happy with the current formation/tactics/entertainment/results.......and yes, the Curle effect influences that.

Do me a favour......read my posts by all means, but if you can refrain from commentating on them then please do so...... your opinion is not really valid to me anyway.....but i'd prefer not to have to respond to your constant childish criticism of me (and it seems many other posters)....go see if there's anyone else you can wind up somewhere else...preferably away from this board.

Just my opinion of course...... Wink

I would say the only 2 players that have consistently looked league 1 standard are Sheehan and McWilliams both of who have missed large chunks of the season. While I think it’s possible for a side to carry a number of poorer players and still be competitive, other players have been way too inconsistent or just outright garbage.

Apologies I don't agree with your analogies on quality and experience. Those two very important assets we are lacking and I thought that KT himself had suggested that? The current squad is at best inconsistent and lacks the quality and experience required. I might as well toss in the leadership factor which is not particularly evident on the pitch at the moment. As for the thorny question of experience then some of those players who played last night lacked it.  The problem is too many have L2 experience and the result is inconsistent displays for example Watson and Hoskins v MK. I personally have no issue with you but merely disagree with your theory 'to encourage the current squad to play with freedom' on the basis that there is some quality and experience to garner. To me that is somewhat delusional as this season has shown that not to be the case. If we can bring in some quality loanee/signings then that might inspire the 'nearly' players to fulfil their potential.

Good job we've got Keith under a long contract after Chelsea sacking Lampard, at least we should get decent compensation when they come calling.

I just hope that super Frank is remembered as the finest midfielder that graced British football. Rather than for this unfortunate chapter in his history.

I'll stick this in here as I don't know where else to put it....... stats stolen from Marvo!!

Keith Curle has now managed us for 121 games, he has won 47, drawn 30, lost 44, scored 173 conceded 160  difference +13   points 171

Ian Atkins at this stage in his Cobblers managerial career after 121 games had won 47, drawn 30 and lost 44, scored 152 conceded 140  difference +12  points 171

How spooky!!
