Tonda needs to start make some serious changes or step aside.

Teams have sussed how we play. Need to ditch the 5 at the back and stop making the like for like subs. Gotvyo get back on the front foot like we were when he was interim manager.

Some serious bol1okings need to be handed out but I don't see who there is to do that.

I wonder if sports direct see where the squad is particularly deficient now?

Calls for Tonda to go are stupid. What club has ever done well swapping every five minutes. There are a few good players in our squad, and a few mediocre ones. We need time to sort through that mess. And this season is the one to do it. We are not going up- or at least I sincerely hope not with this squad, so we try to improve in January- get a few off the books (Aribo) and look for a keeper, and if available another front man - but buying more 8 million hit and hope players is as stupid as changing manager. We can see Tonda wants to play attractive fast paced attacking football. But he needs time to get his team and the platers he needs .
Having said all that - I know what will happen is the opposite- everyone will moan and boo- and SR will shit the bed- and bin Tonda

The only plus to this second half horror show is the timing; start of the transfer window, we need to spend and two weeks to bin 5 at the back and prepare for 4-4-2

I'm hoping that Tonda loses the Matinesque stubborn streak and looks beyond his desire to play what he thinks is best & puts the need for results first. He's been sussed.
An actual move away from what is blatantly not working would be a great start!

Actually think that the director of football should start doing his job & have a word!

I don't like the manager merry-go-round either. But in this case, at this point in his career, Eckert is out of his depth. (Maybe the same could be said of Still, actually.) The experiments we've undertaken this year have failed, and we need to acknowledge that.

Dreadful collapse. Pathetic.
