Easiest start in living memory pissed away and it’s not going to get better

He's one of the worst Manager's Pools have ever had...quite possibly the No.1.
Obviously brought in on the cheap...very very cheap.
Talks the talk but...etc etc etc.
Charlatan.

Got to go. I could not believe how awful we were on Tuesday at half time today tops it. No giving this guy time or gelling as a team, this guy is utterly clueless we defo scraped the barrel with this manager.

Clearly doesn't know how to set a team up to the best of it's potential, unless he's lost the players.

And yet Sarll has done well at other clubs. Most contributors to this board would not argue that most of the players introduced have been at least half decent signings. It's baffling that they seemingly cannot play together. Raj will surely not put up with performances/ results like today's for very much longer. Whatever we may think of him he has finally invested some proper cash into the playing budget and does not deserve an end product such as this shite.

For context our start has included 6 of the bottom 8 and no one in the top ten

People kidding themselves are going to get the shock of their lives in next couple of months

Cannon fodder for teams like York, like Ebbsfleet should of been for us. Get rid now while we have a remote chance.

He has (within reason) but with a completely different set of player skill sets in his arsenal. I don’t think he truly knows how to leverage some of the class we have, yet under both Askey and KP, we managed to score lots of goals and get a tune out of Grey, Mani D and Mancini. He’s not allowing them to earn the right to play, as they are only allowed to play in the final third, presenting a finished article that is rough on the eye.

He’s in trouble here. Pools is a different kettle of fish to Woking.

Traveled about all over.
And my experience tells me that 99% of cockneys talk absolutely shite.
This crank just rubber stamps it.

Take ya shit back to London Town n stop degrading us Hartlepudlians.

Opinions hey
DTP.

How many games is it now?

I think the quality of players will let us limp along in midtable despite sarll

I think we beat D&R before losing to Rochdale and that’s all she wrote

Singh really struggles picking competent managers

Got to agree. It ain't working.

I feel for him on this one though. Sarll is a very articulate man and I’d be taken in by his patter. His patter is good. Weve just not seen a finished result for the patter. It’s not over yet. 2 more games to save his job. Then Raj loads the trusty metaphorical revolver.

To many.
Enuf evidence for the jury.
Don't prolong the inevitable.
Bye Bye

The football is worse than even under Hartley which I didn't think was possible. While results are holding up he was getting away with it but he's possibly got the most talented group of players at his disposal than any Pools manager in years but he hasn't got a clue how to get the best out of them.

Valid question, However we are almost at a quarter of the season.

Spot on its way worse than Hartley and he never had close to the budget this guy has been given this year. We have a 25 goal striker being ruined this season, mancini one spell at boston ruined this season, a midfield made up of 3 featherstones, worst thing is the best one the real featherstone on the bench. Hoofball at its worst its not even exciting its woeful boring and depressing. Played 6 of the bottom 8 and been woeful in nearly everyone of those games, its beyond a joke i wouldnt give him another game, he has proved after Tuesday he is utterly clueless. Fans have said he did well at woking, he did to a point before they fell off a cliff big time.

This is another ball game managing pools compared to a woking. Fans wont fall for his manager speak, someone needs to tell him we have heard it all before.

He probably thinks we are all thick Northerners who will fall for his smoke and mirrors bullshittery.

Things aren't looking good but just to throw a possible contentious issue out there

Under Raj - We've had 10 permanent managers since he took over

He's owned pools for just over 6 years

Although people can argue that this is all on the manager - like it was with Hartley, Lee, Hignett etc

The only common factor in how poor pools have been over the years is the chairman.

And I'm not saying Pools should be top of the championship battling for the premier league - but even in the dark old days of the 1990s, things didn't seem this bad

Or is that my memory making things better than they were?

Wouldn't think Sarll was a cheap option, doesn't make sense to recruit players who don't look cheap options to be led by a cheap manager and assistant. I'd expect Lennie Lawrence to be telling Sarll to get his act together or to prepare to pack his bags if he can't get us 2 home wins now.

Invested cash on players yes but got his money back with an absolute clueless Manager on a pittance.*
*allegedly but a lot less than KP would have wanted and should have got to build on.
Raj strikes again.

Be a miracle if we won 2 home games, we dont look like creating a chance at home let alone win. Cant see this chancer lasting much longer. Blaming tiredness or hinting to it. Doesnt mention we are dross at home too.

All of our managers have smacked of cheapness in recent years.

We have the talent but it’s like using a Rolls Royce to plough a field.

Shitty attendance and another 0-0 or 0-1 and he’s gone next Saturday is my guess

Tired?
We’ve only played 9 games.
Luxury travel & overnight stays in nice hotels for southern games,what a load of crap.

And hopefully Singh Razzles on the cheap fucks off aswell.

Wonder if our fans rep is still taking credit for the appointment

And Jimmy Krankie driving it.

Today at Ebbsfleet the home team won a free kick a few feet from the Pools' corner flag. Mani D and Gray were on the halfway line as the kick was taken. The centred ball was headed out for a corner to be taken a few feet from where the previous kick was taken. Mani D and Gray immediately ran from the halfway line into the penalty area to defend the corner!

Clearly the method to defend corners is to have everyone back and they followed orders. However the previous kick from near the corner flag was equally dangerous as a corner but it was not a corner so they did not have an order to follow. It demonstrates that the players are not thinking for themselves but sticking to pre determined tactics.

I can never get my head round dragging all the players back to defend a corner, leave one in the centre of the pitch one wide right or left meaning the opposition have to pull 3 players back. The argument always is Mani has to be in the box to cover the opposing centre half, ok leave Mani in the box but have Grey on the halfway line and Mancini some where inbetween to collect the ball if it is cleared.

It’s a good way to completely knacker them and run their batteries down.

It also relieves the crowding in the box if we leave 2 out and they leave 3 plus their keeper.

you,ll never be a football manager coming out with common sense like that. actually whats the point of mancini coming back to defend when thats the worst part of his game or chapman to use his height on defending corners. again its the case of everyone doing something that we have to follow. lets sign a long throw in expert to bore us to death even more.

We had 11 men in the box,They had 4, Possibly 5.

Your talking simple Maths Jamie, Coaches can,t count.
