So him being a Bolton fan is a load of bollocks too then.

Armchair supporter.

Can't see anything myself Martin, a lot calling for his head that's for sure but nothing to say he has gone.

If he is still in charge i'm surprised no after match press conference has happened yet.

I'd imagine it's because ED was there today, and folks putting 2 plus 2 together, still where theres hope and all that.

Too true Martin, find it rather bizarre both chairman and owner would be at the game.

Unless they both had free tickets.... Very Happy

It's going to be interesting because a lot of fans are blaming the strikers' inability to score on the manager - but the manager wasn't backed by the Chairman to buy the strikers he wanted to get in.
Presumably the owner and Chairman witnessed the folly of their decision at first hand today.
If they now turn round and sack the manager, the press are sure to pick up on it and that would be damaging for the club. Regardless of whether or not Dougie's choice of system or selection of players is popular or meets the fans' approval, the fact is that the team created enough chances to win that game comfortably so it's going to be difficult to sack him without stabbing him in the back.

The owner and Chairman may actually be happy with Dougie. Finances look like they're back on track and survival is of course the first priority. That said they have a bit of history in terms of panicking and pandering to disgruntled fans.

It's not that he's had to cut wages and had no money to buy.Its his whole mind numbing football.

If we attacked teams came flying out of the traps.Why did Mavies not play,saving him for what? If the guy was on the pitch we would have took them apart.Mavies can score even if the other dummies can't.

It's shit,his whole approach.Just watched a belting match Everton 3-6 Chelsea.Two sides going for it .
I think he should be sacked on his footballing principles.

The fans who have bought season tickets and watching dire football are paying the price of another fucking season over before it's started.If people start cancelling the Direct Debit scheme for season tickets then maybe they'll fuck him off.

If the fans start calling for gartsides and freedmans head he has no chance of sticking it out. If.. and it's a big if he survives till our next home game then if the fans turn at our own ground he's a gonner, just like megson was.

I'm confident he will be sacked on Monday. Now is the perfect time to get rid. A week off and then two winnable home games to give the new man a great start.

I don't believe for one minute the board are happy with Freedman - a manager is judged on results and one look at the league table says something has to change or we are doomed. But rightly or wrongly, fan power is still the biggest reason for getting shut - and the happy clappers are losing members as every minute passes.

I agree with Nat, but as some say , can the board even afford to sack him?

If the club sacks him now, it poses the question "why now, not months and months ago?"

It's not like he's spent a load of money over the summer. We've surely saved more money on the players he's got rid of than we'll fork out on the ones he's brought in. The squad is just a watered down version of last season's. Did the club seriously think things were gonna improve this season?

I've changed my mindset.

I was confident straight after the game but after his press conference tonight I can't see him being sacked now sadly.

I hope I am wrong because I don't think he is the man to take us forward.

Freedman in!
what more could he have done today? Everyone knows that the organisation was good, we played well, attacked well, played them off the park, but failed to put it in the net...

If he gets the sack because of that then its not really fair... He has had several attempts to buy and loan strikers and has had them shut down by the board due to cost...

if the result of todays game can be blamed on anyone apart from misfortune then its the board...

We very rarely agree... however, I've always said gartside is the main issue here. Best post I've read all day.

Trying to work out whether this is sarcasm or downright delusion.. we're heading for the worse start in our history. I disagree that you have to have the finances to be successful in this league, there are teams going up year in year out, who go up because of a decent manager organising his team correctly. Dougie has been a catastrophic failure in the transfer market, there isn't one player except posisbly danns i'd keep from his transfers. The quicker this fool is out the club the better.

Doug has been trying to get strikers in though. It is not his fault that we didn't sign Juke, Ibe, Triallist dude we had in Norway, Clayton etc. Two other strikers he has been trying to get on loan and has been jerked around by the parent clubs - not his fault. They let him get Mason who he clearly thinks quite highly of, but Mason was not up for it today and we are desperately short on options. If you give a man a job without the tools to do the job, you can hardly blame him for not doing it. That said, I think he could have managed our meager resources better than he has - we don't need 8 midfielders when we have so few strikers. The board needs to put up or fcuk off.
