I know he is getting a slating on here and if he has head butted Buzz then he should go, but we have to maintain a bit of perspective here. We all love jumping on the bandwagon and slating people as it gives us something to talk about (funny enough it was dead boring on here when we were sat in 4th and things going well.)
Anyway I met Jim and John Gorman for a couple of beers after the Newcastle game and one thing is blatantly obvious is that he is desperate to do well. He is a loud, passionate and vocal character and would have managed the side the same way that we as fans would like to manage. Spade a spade and all that. John Gorman is the opposite, chilled and very decent. They would be perfect good cop bad cop people.
On top of this he is British, knows about the division, and has a lot of contacts within the game. Now in 20 games he has got us to our highest league position in many years playing the best football we've seen for 20 years. I've got a lot of mates who no longer go and after the Derby performance they all were talking about getting season tickets. 1st time since Gerry was manager.
We have had a bad run of 6 games. Confidence is very low. Look at the run Leicester are now on, 5-1 by Forest, stuffed yesterday as well. These things happen. If we beat WBA (which we won't now) all will be fine again. Simple.
I know the consensus on here is to get rid of him as he 'tinkered' with the team. What a load of crap. Tinkering wasn't mentioned when Vine set up Pat against Boro with their 1st touches. 95% of us have no idea what happens on the training ground. If Gorkss is crap in training all week why shouldn't Jim drop him for the game on Saturday. All we see as fans is Gorkss dropped. You have to trust that they know what they are doing.
I agree that some of his substitutions have been unusual but how many of us would agree on here would agree with everything we say. I personally think Ramage is one of the worst players ever to play for us, some people on here love him. We all have our views so Jim is not going to please all and sundry. People on here want him sacked for tinkering. Grow up, he is the manager and is paid to do it. I trust his decision making working with the team daily more than some drunk fan that sits on here.
When deciding whether you want Jim to go think about the facts. Best football seen at LR since Francis was gaffer. Goals galore. January transfer window approaching so will be some new faces appearing. Stability is what is needed. No player is bigger than the club.
