YorkshireRoyal99 Not sure you can criticise him over not having a style of play when he hasn't really been given an opportunity to build one. One and a bit windows where we are operating under a transfer embargo where we have to get what we can get and can't really go after players to fit a certain style, we just have to rely on what's out there.
Agree on the youngsters, but on the flip side can completely understand why he'd favour experience this season given our situation. During tough times and a tough season, you look towards your experienced players to lead rather than your youngsters. Experience does count and we have been counting on that all season which has been successful so far.
I think it's a bit daft personally to talk about sacking him or him leaving given the season he's had with us. I do want him to be here for a couple of years to aim to build something successful, not just hiring and firing every 12-18 months when things start going a bit sour, we need to try and buck that trend and I believe Ince can build us a foundation in the long-term to work off.

AthleticoSpizz 100% agree Yorkie, however, as much as I would love to see a successful Pince here forever, I think he has built enough credits back, and will be an attractive proposition to move on to another borderline basket-case club to rescue….big respect to him, regardless

I'm not sure why he'd want to do that, unless we told him otherwise. I think he wants the chance to try and build something and thus far he's earnt the chance to build something.
Fair enough, we've had some poor results and poor performances and our away record is dire, but we've got a fighting team who are playing for the club and we've got the 5th best home record in the league.
Unfortunately, we can't just take our cake and eat it, this will take time to recover from. Look at Birmingham who were deducted points, they are no further forward now than they were then. It will take us years before we get anywhere near the top of this division again consistently, give Ince a chance at least to try and get us there. It won't last forever, but at least a couple of full seasons for me.
If we are seriously talking about a manager being incompetent because we suffered one bad defeat despite sitting 14th in the table considering where everyone thought we would be, I'm afraid some fans will never be pleased.

Hi Yorkie,
I mostly agree with you, however, the style of football is becoming harder and harder to watch....and the persistence with WBs when Babba and Hoilett are playing so badly in their current roles is just beyond belief. We have zero creativity in midfield which i get, we're dealt a tough hand due to our transfer embargoes, so do away with the wing backs and bypass the middle of the field and get Meite, Hoilett, Azeez and Ince running from out wide. We have the players to change things up!! or if your so pig headed and stubborn and feel the need for WBs then at least acknowledge that Babba and Hoilett are not in good shape at present and give NWG and Abrefa a go to show what they can do!!

CountryRoyal Stam and Pauno season 1 both finished in and around the playoffs and were up there all season, despite having absolute shockers and not playing that well for a lot of it.
Outside of the relegated prem teams this division is so tight and the difference between finishing 7th and 15th is never really that big. The idea of slowly building a team and improving year on year isn’t really that likely. You can maybe look at Brentford but how they’ve developed as a club is a slight anomaly, and who’s to say what would have happened if they didn’t go up?
Take Derby for example. 8 consecutive top 10 finishes including 4 playoffs and 2 finals and look where they are now.
To top it all off, even if slowly building a sound promotion capable team was possible, the intrinsic structure of the championship and the managerial merry-go-round make it very difficult.
