I wouldn't start writing him off just yet. After the Bournemouth defeat last August I started to and look what happened. The man is intelligent and will know tonight was totally unacceptable. But although I expect nothing but a tonking at the Etihad, he now has to earn his corn.
Agreed. But out of Europe the shiny new fortress breached at the second attempt.Bit of a embarrassment really.
A lot of sides are going to really enjoy playing at our place. Be like a Wembley experience to them.

I'm nowhere near writing him off at all mate.
I love the bloke and wholly believe he'll sort this out.
Just questioning why he looked pretty confused and motionless on the touchline tonight??
Has the Antonio saga rattled him?
Is our squad badly imbalanced and so fucking with his ability to put out a structured first 11?
Something not right obviously.
Fancy calling your only son "Barnestoneworth"
He's got another name....
Yeah....."United"
Say all you like about Sam Allardyce but we wouldn't of lost to Astra tonight if he was in charge. Slavs really has to flex muscle now for Sunday.....I still believe in him.

These are performances that are really un-Slav like and I'm not sure what's going on. What is for sure is that if he doesn't address this quickly this season will be in danger of petering out before it starts.
We should be building momentum with games like this, but quite the opposite is happening, we will not fill the ground and get the crowd behind us with these performances.
I think he will get it right....but it needs to be quick.
The ground's already full.
It's all set up and served on a plate for them.......
They just need to deliver.
With a half decent performance, the stadium will explode.
We've done more than our part........... waiting waiting tick tock.......

If BFS was still in charge we wouldn't have even been in the Europa Competition......mute point.
It might be a good thing we got Knocked out tonight.We have not got the squad to play 3 games a week.Our aim is Champions league football.Now we can concentrate on the Prem and a domestic cup.

I agree...we have done our part. We couldn't have done any more in terms of filling the ground. On the whole we are embracing the move....but how long will that last with these performances, really I mean the lack of effort an intensity?!
I love the ground, and I am a big Slav fan...but I was at the Bournmouth game and it was terrible...we were given next to nothing to cheer about.
