    Turnstile reacted to Srg in Paul Warne appointed as Head Coach   
    Don’t really know what to make of all this. First thing I’d say is it’s a brave decision by Clowes, that is for certain. 
    Rosenior has been a class act and has stuck with us through a lot. Ignoring everything prior to him as a manager though, and how would you say he had done thus far? Ok, I’d say.
    He’s not pulled up trees but you could see a style of play emerging. Whether that would be enough in this league I don’t know. The players we signed nearly all cited him as a reason, and he was still restricted given the age and profile of players we could get.
    The away form has been a huge concern, there’s no doubt about that either. Could he have solved it? Potentially.
    All in all, I am surprised. Thought he had done enough to continue. Also surprised the stability and continuity wasn’t valued more. That said, if Clowes didn’t see a value in that with Rosenior and wanted a different guy for that, why wait any longer? Get your guy and start planning for January and give yourself the best chance  
    As for Paul Warne. Knows his way in this league and seems to punch above a bit in Championship, on a very limited budget. Not the most exciting football in the world, but I think I’d take winning football first and foremost in this league.

    Turnstile reacted to Mr Tibbs in Lincoln v Derby (A) Matchday Thread   
    Poor nights work from all involved. Outworked, outran, out jumped, out tackled... etc. Until we start matching teams' effort there will be no bouncing back to the Championship any time soon. 
    Too many nothing performances from Bird and Hourihane now, time for JK to slot in the middle and find another RB. It's a shame to see two talented players get dominated every week by less talented players but they've got to start earning the right to play. 
    I doubt it'll be back to the drawing board just yet but LR needs to change it up a bit.. performances are going in the wrong direction.

    We have a very decent squad who look like they are getting worse as they 'gel'. Your point is an excuse that doesn't work. I can't think that Clowes paid all that money for us to see us drift further down the leagues.

    Watching paint dry is far better than watching men’s internationals. Especially friendlies and the Nations League.

    Agree with everything you say, and over 9 million views according to tv, so everything okay until Sky become involved with the money and they will and the ladies game will be destroyed like the PL, so must enjoy the ladies game whilst we can.

    Great achievement.  A wonderful night... But they need to curb these on-pitch celebrations now.
    They've won a semi final.  There are no trophies for that.
    We at DCFC know this more than anyone, eh Frank?  Eh Mel?

    That's good, it limits him to causing us problems only twice a season (excluding cups) rather than 46.

    And I’m sure he’s been paid quite handsomely. He’s no more loyal than any player released after not being awarded a contract.

    When you say “stuck by the club”, what exactly do you mean? Does it make him any different to say, Colin Kazim Richards? As far as I’m concerned he didn’t have any alternative. No clubs were trying to buy him as far as I know and he was under contract. I don’t think you should be suggesting he’s done anything special, as he hasnt.

    With you to a degree. You would think him Maldini the way are some going on. He is a good guy it seems and an able footballer but his best has gone and we really need someone younger and hungrier in that position. No room for sentimentality in football.

    would love him to stay but not fussed about him getting a testimonial. Yes he's been here a long time (great servant as you call it) but he's been well paid along the way. I reckon, long gone are the days when long serving players need a testimonial to help set them up for life after football. Harsh maybe but fair IMO.

    Gives away too many free kicks and penalties, due to his poor technique. 
    He puts his left leg in, then pulls his left leg out, in, out, in, out, shakes it all about.

    Famous last words. Sure we’ve got some good players now and are feeling a bit optimistic, but let’s wait 6-10 games before declaring ourselves kings and levels above. The size of our stadium and fanbase won’t be worth much for 90 mins if the team starts poorly.
    I want to be optimistic, while also not being arrogant!
