As much as people would whinge he's one of the few managers with any kind of track record who could get this lot putting points on the board. It wouldn't be pretty, but we would get promoted. |  |

Being a contrarion things have got a hell of a lot worse than what peeps were abusing MM about. #BCWYWF We're in big big trouble, management change from top to bottom is needed. |  | |  |

Would we? He was employed to get us promoted in the Championship and he never. He was employed to get ROI to the Euros and he never. He was employed by Apoael to improve their results which he didn’t. Looking to Mick because he’s the best of a horrendous era isn’t what we need. |  |

Dear Mick, on 19:45 - Jan 9 with 3022 views | judespiveyg | Why do people think the only options are Lambert and McCarthy? Couldn't we just have a new manager? Also I don't want our next manager to be a safe option like a McCarthy, I want us to take a real gamble, or at least hire a manager who'll play high risk high reward football. It feels like this whole club both off and on the pitch are scared of risks and losing. Might sound strange but we almost need to play with a bit more arrogance. Look at Swindon's second goal, none of our players ever seem to have a go from that kind of range. Dobra was a bit quiet tonight but we need players like him and Edwards who'll take defenders on.

Judge would take a shot on from there. It would hit the corner flag though |  |

We’ve had two ‘new’ managers since MM..... the first one was clueless, got rid of the best players in the squad and used a fair amount of cash to replace them with absolute dross.... the next one over saw a relegation and has just continued the downward spiral. |  | |  |

No he wasn't. He was employed to save us from relegation from the Championship which he did. He then made us competitive in the top half for three seasons, had a bad one and left us just before the end of a rather poor season in which we finished above both Leeds and Norwich. His success at Town gave us the aspiration of promotion which was never matched by ME investment. If you think he was initially employed to get us promoted when we were 5 points from safety at the bottom of the league then I want some of what you have been drinking. I don't want Mick back but your opening statement is nonsense, [Post edited 9 Jan 2021 19:55]

all those people who want mick back, would you take him over dean smith, chris wilder or bielsa. none of their sides play the sh1te we have had to endure. at least they have attempted to win a match not hope we would, the conversion rate needed to win a match with one or 2 attempts on goal fell apart just before micks winter of discontent. we need a manager who is more worried about winning than losing |  | |  |

And I bet 9 times out of 10 the Swindon lad skies it, the point is by taking a chance he changed the game just as we were gaining momentum. [Post edited 9 Jan 2021 19:58]

You do know that our players are allowed to ‘have a pop’ from there as well.... or are so regimented that they don’t dare?? |  | |  |

That was literally my point? That the club needs a culture change, be less scared of losing and making mistakes, take more risks. |  |

Dear Mick, on 20:10 - Jan 9 with 2713 views | unstableblue | Yes cause his least season was really good and he really brought the fans together Oh and he really embedded a footballing style and ethos that set us up really well for the future, especially how he linked to the style of football being promoted at the academy Linking Hursts terrible appointment to Micks exit is just ridiculous |  |
