I've kept quiet on this, but have been reading away. I'm still for MM, as I believe that managerial stability is still the way forward. However, I do agree that his selection stubbornness is aggravating me, and that Milijas and Guedioura are the way forward. What can I do about it? Nothing. Will whinging about it change it? Nup. Will MM pay attention to anything I post on any forum? I doubt it. But damn it hurts watching some of the drivel of late.

They need more workshy layabouts to train the police on how to use pepper spray and batons. OK, so admit you've moaned continuously about the last three managers. I'll moan about the next three, and you're to blame. My nominations for next manager are Alex Fergusson, Jose Mourinho and Fabio Capello. If we don't get any of those three and end up with another kiddy fiddler or religious nutter then it's all your fault that we got rid of Mick in the first place.

He’s spent 5 years rebuilding the team from scratch, there have been wholesale changes behind the scenes with management and coaching staff, introduction of more technology to monitor training and match performance. We have a new owner that is investing in infrastructure and to some extent players, yet what have we been able to show for it so far this season? We have just been outplayed and dominated by a team in their first ever season in top flight football, who 3 seasons ago were playing league 1 football. We were also very poor against QPR at home and West Brom. The team that Mick built isn’t performing to the standard that many think they should be after 3 years in the Premier League; surely Mick is largely responsible for that? Him, Jez & Morgan said they were aiming for mid-table this season. Do you think we are performing well enough to get mid-table?

Unfortunately, we don’t have 1 player in our 25 man squad who can do anything other than play the position they were brought up to play (usually via the lower tiers of English football). Is it any wonder that players like Silva & Milner can wonder around as they wish when their team mates can easily slot in to any position and cover their wondering? Can you imagine Jarvis trying to slot into right-back if Stearman goes wondering around the pitch? Not a chance as he has no positional awareness or ability to tackle. This is the case for almost every position in our team. Mick is old school and buys/trains players to perform single functions, which is why so many of them look like square pegs in round holes when he tries to use someone to fill a position through injury. The style of players and the coaching methods used by the newer bread of coaches (Barca, City, Real Madrid etc) are polar opposites to the thinking of Barnsley lad McCarthy.

Mick McCarthy really is Mick The Magician compared to that prat Sven. It seems Mick is going to be given the opportunity to rectify the current slump and keep us in the Premier League so lets see whether he is smart enough to try different tactics and team selections or whether he’s going to be pig-headed and persist with the same drivel. If we are going to change back to a 4-5-1 I think he needs to move Doyle into the hole behind a striker. Doyle is good at holding up the ball and creating space for other players but he is not a natural goalscorer (last weeks tap-in was not of his own making). Two hammerings from Man City in a week should be a good test for the fans and also Mick’s temperament.
