I quite Liked our German genius. Always rated him.
Ah, but all yer rants were at Championship level. We're in new territory here. Ya can't predict him to fail in getting us promoted, get proved wrong, and then say that stuff when he's struggling in the Prem.
Nobody on this site said he'd do well in the prem.

I’d have sacked him after play off final, actually earlier than that, when we didn’t make auto. He had best team in league 2 years running and still failed to inspire. Won’t be my decision but i think it’s more than run it’s course.

The right time to sack him will be before Christmas if he doesnt turn this around in the first 2 games after the international break. Gives the new guy time to see the players before the Jan window.
If he was sacked when you wanted, chances are we'd still be in the Champ, losing any half decent player we had, slowly blending into the rest of the dross in that league.
At least we had a financial shot in the arm with this promotion, and still have a chance of staying up if we make the right decisions.

I think we would have been promoted much sooner without him if i’m honest.
I’m not fussed if he stays, goes, what ever, 69 ers deserve everything coming to them.
As ever the fans that suffer. Shit cycle keeps turning.

So all the names linked with the job who had a worse Championship record than Farke would've got us promoted sooner?
Or are you talking about that hypothetical manager with top league pedegree who was attainable if we threw enough money at him again?

Just look back at who out thought him, with the team he had we should have won at a canter, His tactics cost us dear first year, totally blew the PO final, and then repeated it last year. I think many a basic manager with a tadge about them would have got those teams up.
As i say can stay or go for me, passed caring. It’s fans i feel for.

So still no names then and anyone would've achieved a record-breaking title win last season?
I think it's more likely he's the Dwight Gayle of management. Championship is his level and he's better than the rest of the dross down there, but not good enough in the Prem.
I do agree however that it's perhaps run it's course if there are no immediate improvements. We've more chance of attracting a decent manager now than we would if we get relegated, and by sticking with him we'd probably only become a yoyo club at best.
