The same players lost to Blackpool and drew Rotherham at home early in the season (just saying) The fact we've finished in the top 10 of the Championship once over the last 7 or 8 seasons just proves the club is struggling and it is going to take a proper clear out from top to bottom to get it right IMO. Also, we haven't had a proper midfield since I can't remember when and that protection for the defence and creation for the forwards is pivotal to any decent team.Spot on. |

We cannot get shot of Ainsworth. The man deserves the summer, come what may in the Championship or (more likely) League 1, to put his own stamp on the squad, clear out the deadwood (basically everyone) and bring his own players in.
I keep thinking back to when we went down in 2001 when we appointed Ian Holloway to try and keep us up and it didn't work. We stuck with the man and he got us to a playoff final and a promotion in 2 seasons. Yes, granted, League 1 is a much tougher league than it was then and it was a different time, and that doesn't mean it'll work a second time. But that doesn't mean Ainsworth shouldn't be given the same chance. Stability is something we need to get back, he should be given the chance to get us back up again and, imo, he deserves that chance. It's not his fault this bunch of lazy, cowardly wronguns are what he has to work with.
Just my 2p worth, whether you agree or disagree is up to you. It's the men above Ainsworth that have failed this club, not Ainsworth himself.

In hindsight, I think Critchley should've been given more time and, if he didn't manage to keep us up, also given the same chance I'm hoping Ainsworth will be given. But that's not something that can happen now. Again, it's the people above Ainsworth that are responsible imo. |

What I still can`t fathom is that he plays Dickie and Dunne together. And we all saw that Dozzell played a decent match a few matches ago, but was never seen again. Same with the young player Bonner. ITW, GA actually makes it worse.

the right manager with the right personality can work wonders with same group of players another manager has struggled with. It’s about their style and motivational skills. If you’re good at your job and believe what you do is right you will convince even the biggest doubters. Dyche at Everton, Warnock at Huddersfield and Emery at Villa three sides on their knees where motivational and astute managers have turned it round over night. Ainsworth is a nice fella that’s clear but I suspect he’s brought zero belief to the squad as he just seems so out of his depth. It probably needed an old fox to come in like a Hodgson at palace or a Pulis managers with a reputation behind them to say if you do X you will get Y and the players would believe it. Instead we got some cunt called Dave from Uxbridge shaking feathers living out his cosplay fetish doing the haka. Only at QPR. I couldn’t even watch that Haka thing. Same. I also can’t watch a single interview with him. Not because I dislike him, the opposite actually. I think he’s a great fella but I know I’m just gonna hear the same old regurgitated bollox of let’s keep trying and hope for the best. Can you imagine Warnock doing this Haka stunt? The players need to take a massive portion of blame for this capitulation but the powers that be ultimately choose who leads them and they’ve chosen badly. Twice in a row. Warnock was ideal to get a rocket uo the arses of this lot and get them playing a bit. |

Yeah but my issue is if we go down, we’ll end up mid table in League 1 playing absolute rubbish hoof ball. And most will be saying: “don’t moan, look where we were before. Gareth saved us.” Maybe I’m getting old, in my 20s, loved the togetherness of the side under Holloway but I’m going to struggle to find the energy to go anymore if our future is Ainsworth, hoof ball, League 1…..and we’re supposed to be grateful. |

Same happened with Holloway. We sat outside of relegation zone when he took over and he took us down. We won 1 of 13 under Holloway or 8 points out of 39. Situation seems quite similar to me. All we need is owners so say “no more money” and we’ll be in same situation. |

Like Ainsworth as a bloke,but he's a good awful manager,tactics out of the stone age. Can't believe we are going to be stuck with him for the future. Just doesn't fill me with any hope or optimism that things will improve under him.

The question that needs to be put to Hoos and Ferdinand is why have we gone from MW to Mick the Mole and then Critchley who were all solid coaches to Ainsworth as this appointment would indicate they are as clueless now as they were from day one.

Ainsworth's remarks about wanting to make so many changes in the summer, player confidence and so on all ring hollow and inspire zero confidence.
Sounds a lot like Mark Hughes when we scraped survival despite his 'leadership', before plummeting the following year.
Empty words, no substance - and no results.

Poor today on every front. No system a midfield with no legs and no chance of the forwards scoring. Why did he pick Dozzell and then more puzzling why was he kept on? Why did Chair go back to pissing about when the two lumps needed early crosses.Coventry were at their most dangerous when we attacked their goal and two balls later they are in on goal. When you watch us today you realise what a terrible job the D.O.F and recruitment team have assembling such a poor,unbalanced and lifeless squad over the past few years.
