That's a good question. Would be interesting to see.

Do you think Oscar could be sacked at the end of the season?

I've just had a quick Google look and at the start of the season there were 22 British managers in charge at championship clubs. Garcia and Zola being the only exceptions. That's changed now obviously but it is quite interesting when you compare it to the Prem.

Did he play thenI was under the impression it was more of a fitness test ahead of his move that was all but done in August.
Just stop. You're just embarrassing yourself now.

I for one would like a better version of tippy tappy, our passing game has deteriorated this season - we've played more direct this season and not only has it not worked on scoring goals but it makes us look pattern-less and messy in our gameplan too.
I think Oscar is neither fish nor fowl when it comes to passing vs direct - in the hands of a more forceful personality that pragmatism might be seen as a good thing, but when you get a manager turning a 4th place team into one that will miss the play-offs likley now by some margin, it looks weak
And there we have it, in a nutshell one little four letter, one syllable, word that sums it all up.But what will they say when I'm right
Maybe people don't care about your posting history.
Maybe they haven't cottoned on.
Maybe they find it funny that your only input to NSC, is when The Albion have lost, when things aren't going right, when you can stick the boot in, while wrapping it all up in 30+ years of 'support'.
Perhaps they don't miss you when the rest of us are happy with a long unbeaten run, or solid defending, Manager of the Month awards, and so on.
Hey someone has to troll and if that's where you're happiest, fill your boots.
But why does every bit of the poisonous bile you spout have to be a FACT.
Why couldn't that have just been an 'IF'.
We can all work with that, we can all say, 'Kev called that months ago'.
But no, it has to be a finite statement, based on nothing, that the rest of us are then queuing up to see fail.
Just so we can then see the pathetic squirming a la Bridcutt playing for the Albion, and the rest of your dross.
(god I'm in a foul mood, today)

I don't see why he should be sacked and I certainly don't want him sacked. What I want is some stability and for Oscar to have the chance to work all the available tools at his disposal, something he has not been able to do this season.

1 out of 2 a'int bad.
I'll take "liabilities" whose managerial reigns see us end up in a League position 40-odd places above where we started. Every time. Even if you told me the exact details surrounding Poyet's departure I would have taken it.

I think he will be here nect season - whether he should be is a different question.

Silly old bat
I've only just voted Other because it occured to me that there might be a scenario, where Oscar is offered head of the youth, now we have the new training facility due to be opened?

He moved from doing that job at Barcelona why the hell would he want to go back to it in a foreign country at a club that is leagues apart from the club he left, especially as he is our manager at the moment. Not a chance.
From his comments in the Argus today he sounds pretty pissed off with the moaners about his style too.

Not seen such Bravery!
It's a learning curve for him, and he'll soon realise that when you only get 2 points from 15, you will be mercilessly criticised.
Hopefully he's pretty pissed off too.
Clearly not about the style but he can't be happy with the application.

I'm fairly sure he'll be used to being under the burden of much higher expectations from his Barca days.

Can't say I am surprised him being pissed off, I won't go on about the injuries and the sale of key players this season.
Reading the abuse toward him on this board, and how some of our fans believe Pulis and Howe are now world beaters, I wonder if Oscar is asking himself if he made the right decision coming here.
It appears some posting on here want a boofest Saturday.

You missed the fact that players were sold and he got a fraction of the money raised to strengthen the squad. I really hope the straight jacket low budget and likely sale of key players with minimal investment from the sales was explained to Oscar before he took the job.
Losing out to Millwall and Bournemouth for players was not something I was expecting given our crowds and alleged ambition.
Abuse on this board??
Please explain.
The positive Oscar option heavily outscores the negative in every Oscar poll.
A minority of Albion supporters post here.
Let's say the 10 to 1 minority of those supporters want Oscar out.
The minority of those are prepared to put it down in words.
Don't believe the bile churned out by a few people, with their own agendas droning on while they wait for pubity.

Haven't got time to troll through posts on big board, I believe some of the abuse toward Oscar, particularly since Saturday has gone over the top, thats probably why Oscar responded today

I don't consider moaning about the lack of entertainment and SOME gutless performances this season bile.
If the minority on NSC don't have a moan up who will------one published letter to the Argus once a month?
I have no agenda --- just want the club to sign a Jimmy Case/Nobby Horton 'THEY SHALL NOT PASS' type player who will spill blood for us.
