Hopefully Lambert will gone after today’s game. Bizarrely I think Downes, Edwards and a few others are going to finally click and we’ll win, but form of full backs and striker position may make this impossible.
But we bring a new manager in, we’re lucky they have a good coaching team fully ready to bring in - Cowleys preferable here. Heaven forbid we get someone without a really good number two - a la Lambert and Hurst.
But back to the point - we have no real CEO, a seemingly weak football director. Can a manager succeed with a part time Marcus and ONeill?
The club feels listless and needs energy and direction right through it. These clubs we aspire to be, e.g. Brentford and let’s face it Norwich; they have a very strong management structure.
The signings of Dozzell and Baggot have given a modicum of faith someone knows what they’re doing.

I think people massively over rate many of our players. None of them are good enough to dominate and turn games when we're not playing well as a team. And we don't play well as a team often. We haven't got a Murph or a Waghorn who could turn games on their own in the flash of an eye. The midfield show nice touches and pieces of individual skill occasionally, but struggle to move the ball between the lines. The defence lack composure on the ball, which doesn't suit our attempts to play out and also are prone to errors. And I see many players in this league performing as well as better than ours.
We do have a bit of reasonable shape off the ball, but struggle with the ball. We lack creativity, lack goals and always have a mistake in us (individual errors). It's not a good combination. |
IMO, jury's out on how good any of our players are until we're competently set up and coached. |  |

'we do have a top 6 squad' 
Oh yeah especially this defence that let in 3 goals at home to Swindon and make it so easy form the opposition in our box. |
Agreed this squad isn't great. People bang on saying it's good. It really isnt. A new manager won't improve the squad as such, because they aren't any good! |  | | |

Probably not in the short term, not enough to get out of this league this season in any case. It is too late now, the remaining schedule may prove to punishing to keep a consistent team. People ask is the squad good enough, basically I would say it is. This is after all, Division 3, there are not that many star players in this league, just hard working, organised teams with players who show a bit of passion. I actually believe our current U23's could challenge in this league. We just need a manager who can engage with his players, Hurst turned out to be a mistake, but I feel we need a manager who know players in Div2 and the higher reaches of the non-league game, that is where the players we need are going to come from, not no hopers on loan. I see much written about the salary cap, funny I thought all the teams had to abide by that not just ITFC, and I am sure the rules still say that 3 teams will get promoted! |  | | |
