Ron's timing

[Member]

Was Ron eager, patient, or woefully late in getting rid of PB?

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

Couple of weeks too late, should have been after Northampton imo but in regards to the poll I'll say about right

 

[Blueronron]

Another poll shocker:omg:

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

This place has gone poll crazy.

 

[amsemp]

Too late. We’re now giving the new manager less than two weeks of the transfer window to strengthen a squad that desperately needs strengthening.

 

[FarmdogSUFC]

Probably too late but he obviously didn't want to sack him. Phil's 9 lives finally ran out.

 

[Mad Cyril]

What's the secret to running a successful football club?

Timing.

I would imagine that Chrissy Powell my lord will already have ideas on the playing staff he would like at the club.

If Maher and Duncan are in charge at the weekend, I wonder if they will showcase Bwomono, Wabo, Kyp and Yearwood to show what they are all about?

I voted just right as it is difficult to judge. We'll only know if it was too late as the end of the season.

Certainly wasn't too early.

 

[Derbyshire Blue]

I suspect Ron made his decision after the Northampton result and has been working on the details and replacements since.

Too early and too late. Big Ron couldn't have got the timing more wrong.

Nice idea in theory, but I would think the dynamic duo will pack the side with experience with the instruction 'do not lose'.

So you think it was late, but you're going to vote just right? Do you have trouble at elections ? :winking:

Give or take 11 days it was about right. I'm not gonna hold that against Ron

I would say this is pretty spot on. He was definitely looking to make a change to put things right after the Northampton defeat

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Too late for Jack Bridge, amongst others.

 

[Supershrimper]

Probably just right bearing in mind Season ticket renewals will more than likely start in the coming weeks (it seems to happen earlier every year).

The cynic in me thinks that Ron was one eye on the gap to relegation and another eye on season tickets and the fact a fair few might not renew with Brown in charge.

Hey presto, change in manager, and either Chris Powell or the Cowley brothers coming in might encourage people to renew

 

[Napster]

Too late for Jack Bridge, amongst others.

I think you fancy him.

 

[SUFCStu]

Far too late. Should've been in December.

 

[blues exile]

Far too late. Whoever comes in needs time to assess strengths and weaknesses, see how the players interact with each other during training and decide what reinforcements are needed, all in barely two weeks. Should have happened weeks ago, as it stands the new man, whoever he is, is immediately under more pressure than he needed to be.
