What would it take

[James1979]

for you to change your view on JFH? Whilst I am not a fan of JFH, I wouldn't want to change him unless it was the overwhelming fans view to get rid of him. In that way we'd be starting under a new manager without people moaning that we go rid of him. So, if you're pro JFH, what would it take for you to change? It works both ways, of course. I was thinking about what would need to happen for me to get behind JFH. I've got to admit, I didn't like him from the start because I saw him as totally inexperienced to manage a club like mine. That combined with the style of football....But brentford under flood lights, few beers, feeling like a new man. Results to me have been ok overall, I think our squad is good and could do better but results not bad. So, I think if we can see a bit more attacking play, I'll be not converted yet but at least a non-moaner.....of course, i'd want to remain mid-tableish.

He falls on his sword and resigns.

not for turning on this one then. I presume that must mean it's the telegraph stuff that has done it for you?

Yes.

If he is found gulity in the case against him I will want him gone.

For me I am currently pro JFH and to change I would say a period of bad results that leads us to a genuine threat of relegation.

[Timmy the Doc]

Not much. Three wins in a row and top six position before the end of this year and a clear declaration that his goal is to get us to the Premier League this or next season latest.

we cant sack him,Dwight Yorke would have a massive we are racist meltdown

he'd have called old sir bobby racist for the paul parker "incey" story.

[surrey_hoop]

Playing two up front / just the one holding midfielder and going for the win Friday night would be a good start.

in al honesty i dont think any manager could really sort us out to be what we all imagine. It just seems we try to do things right but just never click it. I truely think we are cursed. its just one #### up or drama after another season in season out for decades.

[Kevin Mcleod]

Wanted him gone ASAP the day the story broke and now will never really like him as a bloke cos of it.
The club has chosen to trust him and believe him and i dont but i think hes doing a good job and slowly (yeah yeah i know very slowly, dross dross dross) but surely building a squad from the ground up without spending silly money and bringing in any loans or mercernaries.
Stil think top six is achievable this season with a lot of Fulham type luck, but if it doesnt happen then next year im certain it will.

Agree up to a point. Whilst I don't think (Newcastle and Norwich aside) that the quality in this division is not up to much, the squad we have at the moment is a mid-table one, and anybody expecting a Top Six finish (Nass, you there?) is simply being unrealistic at this point - it would've taken anybody we'd appointed a while to recitfy the mess we're in. With that said, I do think that we want to see the team we've got have a go and be allowed to express themselves a little more....too many times under JFH's management, we've played it safe and settled for draws when a win would've been entirely possible had we taken a chance. Would that also result in us losing games that we could take a point from? Of course. The fact is though that draws don't really help you in this division, and they never have. Like I say, aside from the top few sides the rest are generally much of a muchness, and you need to be consistently winning your home games if you want build something. That's personally where I'd like to see him improve.

I think that's going to be a big problem for him from now on. Regardless of how involved he was / what his motivations were, many fans will not be able to trust or warm to him after it came out...he's going to have a hard time changing their minds too.

And it was hard enough warming to him before 'pret a gate' cos of his Chelsea connections.
