This whole “England manager” farce that many have clung onto over time needs to end. He was caretaker for one game. Would we ever say “Warren Hackett, ex-Daggers manager”? Are we really still believing that players came here so they could say they have learnt from household name Peter Taylor? Fact is a lot of the players we signed before the money came in, didn’t actually have anywhere else to go.
His connections have bought in one decent loan player when we were up shit creek and one striker, who as much as I like, just hasn’t performed. Hardly convincing is it? The only benefit we have seen come out of Taylor’s connections is with Wilko and maybe Manny- but I doubt either would have happened if it wasn’t for money.
I’m also fed up with this expectations at the start of the season excuse. Yes if we were in the same position as August we wouldn’t give a toss about this. But is it really that unfair to say that our expectations changed when the Americans came in?
Looking forward I ask myself how much worse could it be without Taylor? Where I struggle to think of anything outside of Wilkinson’s attitude. For me that’s just not enough to keep hold of him.
Me? I'll be happy if we slip in to the play offs on the last day of next season......still(sorry shouldn't use that word!!) an improvement on this seasonKeane Handley wrote: ↑Fri Mar 29, 2019 5:07 pm We need to give him more than just 9 months; Success is never instant (even in Dagenham’s case). Only if we aren’t in the playoffs by Christmas will I be calling for him to go.
Off the top of my head, Lincoln and Solihull would disagree. Two changes in management that have been beyond successful from the off.
You want the man who changed a winning team without reason to carry on next year? Is this once he has taken us down to the South?Keane Handley wrote: ↑Fri Mar 29, 2019 5:07 pm We need to give him more than just 9 months; Success is never instant (even in Dagenham’s case).

All those managers have had success and won trophies.stanton101 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 02, 2019 12:15 pm Peter Taylor, Steve McClaren, Ian Holloway, Alan Pardew, Mark McGhee, to name but a few. All managers and all absolutely shit at what they do. And yet some mug, will undoubtedly give them a job or they'll end up thieving a living doing some punditry somewhere, amazing stuff!

Yep, he's right up there with Clough right enough.
