    Can anyone give me any examples where that was done with more than a third of the season left and that was successful the following season? Especially keeping a coach that had failed to get any league wins?

    I just can't see how we can prepare yet.

    We clearly didn't prepare in January. We brought in 2 loan signings and let one of our best defenders leave. Shambles.

    I don't understand your question really H, but....

    We'll prepare for League One between May and July when the Championship ends. The only advantage we'll have is that we'll actually be able to start preparing from the beginning of April, because that will be when relegation is confirmed

    Exactly. And I thought we didn't even want to use loans.

    Some on here are saying oh well let's start preparing for league 1 now I'm just wondering how they see that playing out?

    We won't prepare, we don't prepare.
    For a bunch of people who allegedly have a couple of quid ( and that may well be literally true), they seem very planning averse.
    If they accepted reality and started planning for L1, they'd sack Poya now.
    That's not gonna happen tho, for 2 reasons....
    Firstly they won't admit a second failure, so they'll front it out until the inevitable happens after a short string of defeats early next season and L2 beckons.
    Secondly, hopefully we go for a young upcoming manager with British lower league experience (what nationality they are is irrelevant as opposed to their experience of the leagues we will participate in), no point appointing them now as hopefully the successful candidate won't want a relegation with record low points on their CV.
    Can't see a silver lining, dark times for BFC, the only healthy option for a fan is to ambivalently accept it.

    I wanted us to use January to prepare by buying players that we’d use in league 1. That didn’t exactly happen but January can sometimes be awkward.

    Now, we can by giving game time to players who will feature more in league 1.

    The guy who takes you down is always best qualified to bring you back. Poya will come out of this a better coach.

    No just done being down about it mate :). I don't see what good sacking Asbaghi will do given the recruitment model for signing Head Coaches is the same one we use for players. I actually think Poya will come out of this adverse period stronger. I think he sets us up well.

    I can't believe the players aren't taking any flack.

    Personally I think the club is rotten to the core. Top to bottom it's dead as a football club. Very few people give a toss about anything anymore and less give a **** about the fans. Just look how the vouchers thing was handled and how fans and customers were just ignored and then passed around departments with nobody actually caring what happened until they were publicly shamed and laughed at on Twitter

    I can't see any end to all this that's the worrying thing could be the next Grimsby ,Stockport, Chesterfield, Notts County there's too many of them to mention.

    The football has improved a lot, the results have not.
    Poya needs to play the right front 3 which he hasnt done yet.
    When he does the wins will come.
    Too late now for this season but keep Poya and we will be a good side in league 1.
    The last thing we need now is a new coach.

    I'd leave Poya in charge now until the end of the season and sack him 5 minutes after the last game. Have someone new lined up to come straight in and make fresh start. Unfortunately even if our leaders did that they may well make a similar appointment so it may not help.

    Let's just hope there's a relegation termination clause in his contract...

    I'd get rid, let Disco have a shot till the end of the season He knows the lads from the U23s, maybe we could actually get a few wins which surely must be key to confidence going into the new season.

    I don't think a few wins this season will make much difference going into next season.

    I hope you're right, but he doesn't look like a head coach under pressure to me. There's no urgency, there's little to no progress at all. We could say we're conceding less goals, but that doesn't matter atm because we can't score, because we don't shoot.
