Beat Huddersfield and I will be first to eat humble pie and applaud Mr Taylor. But we have not improved since he took over last season and the football is getting worse. I am sure there are many like myself who have stopped attending games while that man and performances remain so dire.

Taylor gotta go, been feeling like this since the Wycombe game, he's just not up to it, he's not a ranter, he doesn't get the team motivated that's why they're not playing for him, let's sort this now before it's to late Why lie? You have been thinking this since JB was sacked. Its a forum, there is a history of posts, You don't have to go back that far to find comments like this one: gaschat.co.uk/post/1005177Are you also one of the people that hope we lose each weekend? shameful behaviour |

Charlton ? Who just beat Birmingham 😮 Ah yeah….they beat Birmingham 4 days later so that must mean they weren’t crap against us. Teams have real off days. It’s football. 11 men v 11 men who can all have off days and sometimes several of them all have one on the same day…. Maybe Charlton had an off day…..maybe Birmingham had an off day….maybe we did v Swindon….But Charlton were crap against us, Brum were crap against Charlton and we were crap against Swindon….maybe that’s just football. . Football is mental, and as you’ve rightly said, we beat Charlton which none of us expected to, they then beat Birmingham which they didn’t expect, and as sure as hell none of us expected to get battered by Swindon like that. But what really annoys me, is that with how unpredictable football is, and with how tight the league is still, I don’t see supporters from the majority of other football clubs losing their minds the way we do after every poor result. It seems the last two league wins have gone straight out the window because we lost to Swindon in the pizza trophy, and as soon as one bad result happens, we all turn into columbo and start peddling rumours about ownership interference, squad unhappiness etc. when none of us really know for sure. For me, we’ve still only played 10 games and it’s only the middle of October, there’s still such a long way to go and this squad is still settling in whether we like it or not. But this place is gonna be unbearable if after every poor result we lose our minds. |

Maybe some are just too toxic. |

I've gone from being angry with Taylor and edging towards wanting him sacked but have now gone towards feeling a little sorry for him and hoping we can sort things out. There are obvious weaknesses in the squad, Taylor knows this, if he isn't being allowed to manage the team as he thinks then we are in trouble. We are definitely not all pulling in the right direction behind the scenes and until things are sorted then no manager will be successful at our club. The way the players played against Swindon was a reflection of the mood in the squad, some good players, playing with fear, no confidence, like they have the weight of the world on their shoulders. I suppose it's inevitable that some of the likes of Thomas etc.. Will be made available for transfer.

I love this forum so much. If we win its because we are lucky or the opposition are poor. If we lose its because the manager is a clown and we need to sack him.
Maybe, if we win, we make the opposition look poor? Just a thought.
Maybe, if we lose, the manager can use it as a learning about which players deserve to be selected, which formations work etc.
My guess is that we will finish mid-table this season. That means we will lose many more matches which will give many of the forum experts their chance to enjoy themselves by abusing the manager. We will also win many more matches, so let's try to enjoy those days too!!
I've followed the Gas since 1960 and we are roughly in the same position in the football hierarchy. One day we will be back in the Championship, at least for a while - and it may be with MT as manager! Let's enjoy that too!

From reading posts on here, interviews with MT and snippets from elsewhere, it is obvious all is not well in the hierarchy at the club. After Wycombe i was edging towards the MT out and understood fellow fans frustrations with the football being served up, but if things are not right at the club, does it really matter if we sack MT and bring another manager in? Personally, i am fed up with the merry go round of managers, MT goes and its ground hog day again, new manager, new way of playing, wants his own players and then its the entire ' new building ' cycle again. I know it will probably not happen but I really want MT to make a go of this, if anything it will toughen his resolve after a poor September and that embarrassment on Tuesday, that was down to the players. |

Exactly this so many wetting there pants over a defeat in a pathetic cup which hardly anyone cares about playing a near complete reserve side some of what I'm reading on hear is hilarious. Yes the players let themselves down but that is on them and should have some pride but it looked like most of them didn't give a toss about the game so I don't blame the manager on slating them and massive kick up the backside and reality check is what they need. They are professional footballers but put in the effort of a Sunday pub team. If I went to work and showed that lack of effort I would expect a rocket from my manager and if it didn't improve would probably end up being sacked so what's different here? As a guess I'd say in football it's usually far cheaper for a club to sack one manager than a dozen players? Although you have to ask why this is the second group of players who seem to have no interest in playing for the club under MT, the third group of players if you include Rotherham's, there must be something seriously amiss with his style of management. They haven't all stopped playing for him that's a load of rubbish. I certainly didn't see that for the last 2 league games or don't they count as I sure we got 6 points and scored 6 goals. My point stands Tuesday night is 100% on the players and they need to take a good hard look at themselves as that wasn't the requirement and attitude of a professional footballer. The body language was shocking when we conceded it looked like most of them didn't care. I can take losing I'm use to it being a Gashead but I can't except a lack of effort and it seems neither can MT. |

Reading between the lines of things being said and the past 3 games. There appear 2 options now. Taylor gets sacked soon or Taylor has proven a point to some people and is allowed to get on and do things his way with the players he wants The first is more likely and the second option only occurs to boards/owners when appointing the next manager |

I have no idea how far his authority reaches, but after seemingly giving JB complete autonomy and getting nowhere, it is reasonable to include others like GF in the football management structure. I can't help feeling that sacking MT this season will be a disaster for the club and I hope the board have the courage to stick with him even when our wonderful fans go into meltdown mode. |

The team we put out for the Swindon games, was never going to be good enough to win that game. We only had two recognised defensive players. Bilongo is not a centre back or even good defender. Thomas and Sousa are not defenders or wing backs there best position is out and out wingers. In addition O Donka has scored just 3 goals in nearly 60 games, yet we played him up front on his own, where were the goals going to come from. Team selection was to blame for that defeat, Swindon are a club struggling on and off the pitch, the club have struggled to pay wages to their players in the past, so a good cup run is important to their club and players,it is a local derby and they were going to do their up most to win the game. Taylor made a bad call fielding a weak side and he should admit it.

Agree, if it is true what the media says, then the players and Taylor new that he would be sacked if we didn't beat Charlton. Taylor picked his most experienced team and the players put in their best performance of the season, so he clearly has the support of his players. Shame it took the threat of the sack to get the win. Mind you he nearly blew it with the five substitutions. |
