The keeper is one of the many problems, Holy was dire and needed dropped. Spunking a load on an equally inadequate keeper sums up this season and Simpson.
The only plus is we have owners with some cash to spend and will improve the infrastructure, may be in the Conference until they realise they are fuckwhits when it comes to English Footy.
Simmo out, should have been after Blackpool.

Lewis is the worst keeper at the club, by a mile.
Mary Poppins can't drop him because he wasted a ton of cash signing him and it would be an admission he'd made a mistake.

So who would you have then ? Bearing in mind it would be manager 22 since Sir Jimmy rescued Nigel Pearson !

Seems most people on the message board are of the opinion it’s time for Simpson to go, I wonder what his reaction would be if the away support at derby were vocal against him , he did have a bit of a hissy fit after blackpool away saying he didn’t need it

Might have the desired effect... I can understand that the majority of fans cannot agree with anyone wanting their team to lose but maybe this is one of those occasions where an almighty stuffing might do us a favour in the long run. In reality, I think we'll win - rather like the Knighton-managed Blues won 1-4 at Wycombe. |

We could lose 12-0 on Saturday and Mary Poppins still wouldn't get the sack.
The culture of accepting failure and lack of accountability the Piataks have introduced is rotting the club from the outside in.

Breeze looked capable and quite promising in the few games he played so I don't know what the point of signing Lewis was especially after how poor he had been with Bradford this season and an unforgettable mistake in the play off match against us! Holy would have been ok to just carry on as the number 2 until the end of this season with Breeze as our number 1. |

In the event that Simpson decides Lewis , Mellish , Armer, Neal , Armstrong and Kelly are first teamers , his sacking is a real possibility at some point early next season.

This is a hypothetical question as I don't believe it's likely.
However, if Simpson wins promotion again next season would you trust him in Division Three after the way he's handled himself this season?

There’s a 50/50 chance. He’ll either win promotion again next season, or he won’t. 50/50. But in answer to your question. No I don’t think I would trust him in League 1. Would you? |

Yeah I’d say thanks Paul for another promotion, but I believe you’ve taken the team as far as you can and would like to move in a different direction with a new coach. All the best Paul. Would you not sack him straight away after a promotion? |

Yeah I know you would, you would have sacked him months ago, but we’re talking about your hypothetical scenario of him winning promotion again. Would you sack him right after that? |

Would you sack him right after that? Fair enough. Surely there's some nuance here and it's more than just a 50/50 question? I'd say it depends on performance levels not just results. If we scrape up via the playoffs, or even by finishing third or so, and Simpsonball remains our primary tactic (long ball, kick and rush etc). Then it would be clear to me he would have to be replaced. An unwillingness to change is likely to yield similar results. If he starts to show tactical flexibility and we start to play a more intelligent, passing style (more suited to a higher level), and show an entirely different strategic approach to the game. Then I would be inclined to give it another try. |
