Have no time for them but trying to wish him well, The longer it goes on without a point the less chance he's got of them listening to anything he's saying though and it could easily unravel.
I wonder how our combined results to the end of the season will compare with what we and QPR got when Gaz went, doesn't look great so far.
They played well today against top of the league Sheffield Utd and more than matched them but when you’re at rock bottom that bit of luck is hard to come by.
Unsavoury little incident at the Burnley v Preston game.
The charming Osmajic (long ban for biting this season) took exception to be a bit of mocking about his lack of control on the touchline and shouted something definitely abusive back to Hannibal Mejbri, but there's racism accusations now. Mejbri's face dropped and ran straight to the ref.
Will see how this unfolds, but not sure Preston's manager saying it's all "he said, she said" is a great first response!
Terrible timing from the board - there was never really any evidence this season that he had what it took to keep them up, so surely if you’re going to get rid of someone, do it before January and give the new guy the leeway to ship out players and bring in reinforcements?
Man City Women vs Liverpool Women. Man City in their usual sky blue shirts with navy blue shorts and socks. The visitors? Not wearing red, they’re wearing navy blue shirts, navy blue shorts and navy blue socks. Why????
Edit: apparently the Liverpool kit is black but still, why not just wear red.
So is this the best way to boost your chances in a relegation dogfight?
Take your second most recent two managers (i.e. beyond Garry Monk, who was just sacked).
Take the one who was sacked in 2023, and put them in as Director of Football.
Take the one who (even better) came in after the first, then quickly left the club in the lurch and left under a cloud within 3 months of appointment, to go back to Miwwaww.
They just need to avoid defeat tonight and then they have two eminently winnable games against Watford and Portsmouth to follow which would see them clear of the bottom three for a while.
Oh boy. When we are rooted to the bottom of the Championship next season we bring MB back as head coach and GA back as,,,,another head coach?? And make Dobby Director of Football??
That Plymouth game is really bizarre if you think of where we have been. After competing with them for years, often beating them, and taking our turns as championship also rans for Blooms to get his big break and so quickly be bottom of the championship a point below them is just a bit jarring.

Bolton have equalized at Shrewsbury. 1-1.
Bolton now winning 2-1.

These last 2 for Luton are at least expected losses v the top 2.
It'll be Plymouth H next, then rivals Watford away that will really shape things.
Fail to pick (m)any points up there and see the 3 points to safety increase, then he's really in trouble.

Osmajic is a scumbag. He needs kicking out of the football league, pure scum.
This is great https://x.com/secondtierpod/status/1890832248284303370
Prize twat , it would appear
Family sat in that stand apparently.
Garry Monk gets the boot at Cambridge.

If this is about Osmajic it's probably not strong enough.
If this is about the released player scoring (and it turns out celebrating towards his family, sat high up in that stand) it's a silly one.
Hats off to GA. An absolutely brutal run of 10 games, and Shrewsbury are W3 D2 L5 in that time, with all five defeats being by the odd goal.
The fixture list begins to open up for them now.
Luton v Plymouth tonight.
You've got to think MB has to win this one to keep the show on the road.

Spectacular work, Cambridge United.

Could happen.
A Luton win Vs Watford arguably buys him a lot of credibility and time, they really don't like eachother, a loss would be similarly impactful.
Pep out etc
1-1 final score. Two poor teams.
Avoiding defeat at home to the 23rd placed team has to go down as a big missed opportunity.
However, they're still just 1 win from 4th bottom.
4points off 5th bottom and 7 from 6th bottom though, so there's a little gap after that though.
Luton and Plymouth both terrible. We would beat both. Bold statement but wow they were rubbish.
Kone must be pleased he didn’t move
7 games and a win % of 0 doesn't look good. Not that they'll get rid of him.
The draw gets him on to the Derby.

Knowing Watford, they'll beat them
