Why Curbs Must Go - These Stats Don't Lie
Curbs P11 W1 D3 L7 F8 A22 Diff-14 Pts 6
Pards P17 W4 D2 L11 F10 A24 Diff-14 Pts 14
Pards was sacked on his stats above and his % success rate was 27.45 compared with 18.18 from Curbs.
The team has played shite all season under both managers.
Eggy do the right thing and sack Curbs now.
I know we are going down and this is academic and I ain't calling for Pards to return but believe me we ain't coming back up with this joker.
He proved without a shadow of a doubt last night that he is a clueless excuse of a manager with no tactical ideas and seemingly no motivational impetus.
He is simply out of his depth and should be removed immediately.
Goodbye and shut the door on your way out.

I appreciate where your coming from beex, but I beg to differ. Curbs does have a poor record, yes. No arguments there!!
However he is a proven EPL manager and did well at a small club with very limited resources. True at the beginning Charlton did get relegated but he did bring them back up and have kept them in reasonable shape ever since.
I am as cut as the next fan about the teams dismal efforts, but I think, knowing the fizzy pop is next season, that Curbs can get to know the team properly, coming in mid stream into a team in disarray would be difficult for any manager. He needs a decent amount of time to prove himself and he hasn't had enough time IMHO. Sure he is no Guus when it comes to tactics or Sir Alex when it comes to discipline but this stuff takes time.
If he doesn't perform well then sack him, but he needs more time to prove himself than a few months. Remember the players are suppose to be following orders on the field and clearly they are not. Gut the team, give curbs a chance and if it doesn't work then Egg will sort it out.
West Ham United do not traditionally sack managers. Since Syd King (1901) We have one of the shortest string of managers in history (11), lets not blow that tradition on emotions. We now have access to cash we never had so lets start at the fizzy pop and build this club into not only what the fans deserve but one that will truly honour our rich history.

Thanks mate but no thanks. I've lost my faith in Curbs, I think the players have, I think 90% of the West Ham fans at The Valley yesterday did and I hope and pray Eggy has. He must be sacked now. I'm not after a saviour from the Premier League, there isn't one, just a good manager who can motivate the team and doesn't stand around feeling sorry for himself all the time with his head in his hands. I'm sorry to be blunt but FUCK OFF CURBS NOW!!

Claudio Ranieri or Gianluca Vialli (or both, they are mates apparently, Vialli as assistant?)get some Italian passion back and start playing with some flair again. Never agreed with this "has to be a West Ham old boy" crap. Please god not Souness (big rumors in UK)although he'd shake the players up for sure. Harry might be tempted back but that may just be nostalgia talking?
