Its completely disrespectful to call Neil Warnock "Colin". He's had a great career, done a lot for the game and is a great manager we'd be lucky to have.

He deserves respect.

He deserves respect for his record and abuse for being a pcunt.

And he doesn’t mind the abuse.

I agree. Apparently if you rearrange his name, Colin W*nker, it is possible to forge the name Neil. We should use that from now on.

Seriously though the legend should have been contacted months ago.

It's not disrespected; he loves it. It's playing up to the pantomime persona he's willingly created for himself.

He's on record saying that when he dies he'd rather have a minute of chanting "Warnock is a wnker" over applause.

I'd happily have him here for a firefighting role.

Can't see that Warnock would do much with what is, bar a few exceptions like Button, Dean and Hutchinson, a squad of youngsters.

He'd do what he always does.

Instil some fight. Organise them and simplify things.

Another hopeless turnip with another stupid tactical masterplan and ZERO ability to adapt in games.

Ffs get someone in who is "normal".

I've 'flipped', or rather feel it's now time to make official what I could see months ago.

seLLLLLLLes is not fit to manage this club

Dai out first, Selles not far behind. But no genuine improvement if Dai stays

Selles isn't learning and this club should not be in the relegation zone of league one. If he loses his job he shouldn't have any complaints regardless of the circumstances

Not saying out yet. But he's an absolute shambles.

And we all know managers don’t recover from this position.

Next up we have acup game at home V Swindon who will be out for blood. Then a home game vs 2nd place Oxford, who will take delight in smashing us. Before being back away at Charlton and thrn home to Fleetwood.

We're likely looking at another two defeats before the hope of staving off the rot with some points at home.

Without the ownership situation I think Selles would be sacked if the next two go as expected and we don’t beat Fleetwood.

We've just had a run of 3 of the easier games we'll get this season. And we've picked up 1 point.

You've said at the start how rare it is for managers to recover from this situation. Why wait until we've lost a few more games before acting?

I can't think who would want to come here with the experience we need. Could Bowen step into the breach again?

I think its too early to sack him but I think it is relatively clear he should never have been appointed. We needed a steady Eddie League 1 expert not the second coming of Jose Gomes.

Why is it too early.?Do we have to drop more points with his cowardly (the term Southampton fans used for him) inept tactics.
