I concur.

Let him have a celebratory drink to celebrate him actually NOT getting his team relegated and give him his p45 tommorrow.

give the players some credit for the point today....tough place to go and the point made all the difference.

Well played today lads.

Should never have come to this though.

Great shout.
The players finally put in a shift today, and kept us up.
Ultimately, they got Turner out of jail.
Time for Tubby Bye-Bye!

Well done to the players and thank you Wycombe.
The players kept us up in spite of Turner.

Surely he must relinquish the manager's job now..............he just hasn't got a clue.

but questions have to be asked why the players only pull it out when it matters. They are good enough to be much higher in the league (christ theres only a 12 point gap between us and 9th which over a season should be nothing).

New manager to motivate these players definately, but not all the blame goes to Turner, the players need to take a long hard look at themselves.

But when you say "pull it out when it matters" we achieved a draw at a club with nothing to play for. "Pulling it out when it matters" under most managers would mean getting a win against the odds.

Last season we sort of "pulled it out when it matters" by managing not to get beat 8-0 or whatever on the final day of the season at Bristol Rovers (just!)

The interview certainly proved the man cares deeply for the club and did well to lift the players after the deduction. Big credit to Sam for speaking up for his manager too.

Big step back now required to look at things sensibly over the summer. And to allow Turner's hangover to wear off. :uhoh:

I'm sure we got beat by the required amount, 4

It was another team which saved out bacon

Either way, we survived yesterday courtesy of results elsewhere. For the second season in succession. With the same manager at the helm.

We all know what needs to be done.

Teams ALWAYS finish where they are courtesy of results elsewhere. Unless you know of a league with two teams in.

I heard Russ Green was seen hugging and celebrating with Turner after the final whistle.
Don't know how true it is and how much you can read into it but I wouldn't be surprised in the least if Turner and West are still in charge next season.

You know what I meant :wink:

The point I was making was that a win yesterday would have guaranteed our survival regardless of how other teams got on.

I think that was down to rather understandable collective relief!

Like Ive said before on here I have it on good authority that Turner is 'going back upstairs' and we are getting a new manager, but when I dont know, but if I hear anything else I will post it
