I agree him going won't make any difference if he's replaced by someone of the same calibre, but bring in a decent coach and it would improve us.
Why can't the players play like they were coached in the first two games ? Is it really the coaching that varies so much week to week or is it the players ? In reality it is a mix of things. I hope we get a top coach in. But he will change some players without doubt. Our team is not top class and hasn't been since 2006.

We need pace , Leeds went around our players with ease.
Knowing one of the players mum's she says her son and most of the team do not like or respect Radford. Clearly evident on our inconsistencies and capitulations. Radford must go now.

I've never claimed we have a top class side just waiting for a decent coach to unleash their potential. And saying that the coaching varies week to week is missing the point. What's happening is that the overall coaching and leadership at the club is inadequate, which leads to these up-and-down performances over the course of the season.
A good/great coach gets the best out of the players we have. I don't believe that Radford is capable of doing that. I don't believe he has the nous to address our failings, either in terms of coaching the current squad or recruiting the right players going forward. He simply isn't up to the - admittedly huge - job of turning this club around.
All moot anyway. He won't walk and Pearson has said he won't be sacked. I'm beginning to think that my avatar isn't as ironic as I intended it to be.
Hold on to me baby, his bony hands will do you no harm It said in the cards, we lost our souls to the Nameless One
Just heard on the radio 'we need a real coach..bring McNamara in' made me chuckle. I think too many people are blaming Westerman, granted he couldn't catch Watkins (I think it was) at the break, but how is a loose forward expected to keep up with a centre, get a grip. Also for me Mini had a solid game, great runner
