The age of mediocrity is now

Moss was at least competitive in the season after the GF win.
Jackson has f**ked it completely

Very valid point.

Wonder if they’ll have the guts to do what City did and part ways immediately

I don’t think so. He has only been here a few weeks and didn’t sign players or have a pre season.

Radio took over the top team and made them average over the course of a year.

Gonna be a long couple of months until we can sign guys in January. Not that I would even be surprised if RP would rather just have the money

Also. Dick won't want to face the fact that he got it wrong again

Don’t forget we have scum away in 2 weeks.

We are not going to be able to sell the ones we need to. Some are probably signed for multiple years as well. It’s a real shit sandwich.

The only way we would part ways with Jackson would be if it was clear that he hasn't got the dressing room

Yeah it’s interesting cause from all reports the boys love him but they’re not really playing like they do

Anyone with inside knowledge care to share the other coaches that applied? I'm genuinely curious, apparently this guy got picked because of his "experience with youth" and the players "immediately bought in and love him" but so far all I've seen is him playing youth when they don't deserve it.

New team, coach, style etc etc. It's a work in progress. Can I implore everyone to settle down with the wailing and gnashing of teeth already?
We're still improving. Don't know if we'll get there but an inch of patience is necessary before announcing the sky is falling in

Over 270 minutes of football, we have scored 1 goal... From a defender.

Let that sink in

How many more losses in a row before we can?

I agree that the AFC is going to save MJ.

I still think Cahn would have been miles better just based on local knowledge with the intricacies of the league.

Let's not forget he had an NPL team playing better than we are right now.

Anyway, I suspect MJ will get an entire season atleast.

He doesn’t have many options. We have never had great depth with our budget but this season we have razor thin depth and a good 3-4 players in the starting squad not performing like they need to.

Could be 3 goals if the officials last weekend weren't so inept

And at least another 5 without fantastic goalkeeping stopping them, just from memory of the last 2 games. I forget if goalkeeping played a role against AU. Several more hit the post, Niz 's went from post to post, a few close offsides...

It's a game of margins. They go in and everyone is celebrating and positive talk. They don't and it's end of the world.

A few more go in and there's less frustration, less dumb cards. Less opening at the back chasing goals and games.

A little bit more luck, composure, whatever and we start winning. It'll come. This freaking out isn't warranted. Yet.
