I think he would have been excellent as Director of Football. Listening to SS last night, it was clear his knowledge helped the club and its structure a lot in his first term.
They’re the bits we don’t see as fans.
 
The issue is that with 10 games to go, last night was not a one off, it's a trend, and he has zero ideas on how to stop that trend. How many times have we come away from away games against 'lesser' teams and not had a shot on target and been utterly dreadful. Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity, and that's what it is. Why anyone thinks it will be any different next season is beyond me. Get rid and start planning for the summer.
 
He’s going nowhere as we heard last night.

This season has long gone for me I said at the start of the season we weren’t good enough for the play-offs and Critchley was the wrong choice of manager/coach.

I’m already not looking forward to next season with the same manager the same shocking team selections and the same shocking tactics.

If Sadler is happy with him then fair enough he’s the owner he pays the bills but he’ll be at least one season ticket holder down next season.

I think that's a fair point mate

SS seems to rate NC for some bizarre reason

Season tickets will be very low if NC stays though
 
I’ve reached the point of “not bothered”. Sadler is obviously happy with this see-saw random factor set up because he likes Crifchley on a personal level.

I’d like him to resign but he won’t. I’d like him to be fired but he won’t be. So really I’m past caring.

We have just over 10 meaningless games to see out. I expect some similarly awful displays before the summer comes to save us and the odd false dawn. If nothing changes, nothing changes.

Can we send this to the club when finished?

We polled a survey of middle aged and senior citizens online fans (majority do not attend away games) and this was their view? We have not at this stage managed to poll anyone under 45 but suspect they’re young and stupid.

We have not polled many under 45s because they couldn’t be arsed voting even if we did. Isn’t that what you mean?

Lets he honest, the atmosphere at games this season have been pretty sedate, fans are certainly starting to turn on NC

Since the turn of the year the atmosphere inside BR has been cracking mainly because our home form is so bloody good.

Top of the league at home near the bottom for aways.

That's a problem!

As long as the North keep playing along, begging for a fisting 👊 then Sadler is going to think everyone is happy with Critchley.

As above our home form is brilliant.

I got to the same stage after that sh1t performance at Burton on Boxing Day…… the same Burton that Fcuking Carlisle managed to beat last night, we’re a joke and unfortunately the owner is happy with him 🤔🤔🤔🤔
 
I think Critchley has come back to us from his failed flit without the confidence, belief and clarity in his own thinking that he built up for himself around the back end of 2021. Tactically, how he reacts in games. It's not quite there as it was. And it shows in his team with how one minute you think you're getting somewhere and the next they just fade and wilt when up against it and go through the same careless sloppy routines without anyone involved taking responsibility.

But I'd also love a genuine thoughts sit down with him because I don't know many league one managers who'd expect much joy on a weekly basis when having to take on the opposition with Jake Beesley and Kylian Kouassi up front and things like that. So in his head is he thinking I just coach a method into the players the club will pay for.
 
We are playing the most complicated formation in the division when we cant even do the fundamentals, I cant see how this any different from the Appleton situation.

Can't defend set pieces convincingly, can't make a decent pass that isnt to Grimmy, can't break teams down when we are expected to have majority possesion, playing one midfielder expecting him to do the job of a double pivot with two infront of him restricted to areas of the pitch with little opprtunity to get the ball to impact the game, constant changing of a back line, wingers expected to be fullbacks and fullbacks expected to be wingers, XG's generally lower than the oppositions, playing with a pedestrian pace, over reliance on magic from Dembele/pace of CJ/Rhodes finishing the one chance we make in a game, no confidence in the team away from home, the list is endless.

We are getting the QPR Critchley, not the one who had us dominate the back end of the promotion season.
 
I voted stay, yes this season not the best (away form) but SS did say it was a four year plan so for me you have to give him another season, let him get rid off the players he doesn't want at the end of the season, get players in who he wants and see how it goes.
 
I’ve never disliked things so much in 40 years of watching Pool. Don’t get me wrong, there have been much worse times, but then the managers didn’t have the resources he’s had. I hate his brand of football and tactical ineptitude. It is clear that he’s not getting anywhere near the best out of this squad.

I also hate that again last night, he couldn’t be bothered to go over to thank fans. The height of arrogance, when he’s can’t wait to fist pump a win.

Might need 10 years to find 3 ball playing centre backs, looks bleak on the football side
 
The football has been awful for a lot of games this year. Last night was embarrassing. No shots Gagarin! Why do different than the weekend ??The crowd is certainly the quietest it’s been for a few years. Might as well stick with him til we are definitely out of the play off picture I guess? Regret we didn’t get rosenior when it looked certain he was coming here .

Agree, bizarre. Even if you truly believe in the system you are pla

Last night was poor, i think the players have to take some responsibility as well for that performance.

Agree but they looked totally lost last night, especially 2nd half.
