Do not vote in anger or solely because we lost to a non league outfit! Vote on how you feel overall.

People see football different, each opinion is valid and I hope people respect this. Have you say, debate it but remember to keep it a way from being 'personal'.

For me, he needs time.

If we sack him - the same merry-go-round will continue and a new manager will inherit someone else's squad, with players who may not fit his philosophy. We may see someone appointed within, who people get behind at the start - a lot like Derry and the bubble will most likely burst. I hope we can be strong and stand firmly behind the squad, whatever happens will happen. I hope we don't force this into an issue personally!

A field where dreams become reality.

i think if we cannot remain near to the play offs or inside, he should go after the new year.

he seems too stubborn and unforgiving, you need to drop things and put the club at heart. it seems he holds grudges and repeatedly plays people out of position, which i do not think helps and i hate to say it. i am tired of his attitude, his interviews and comments.

Voted. The bloke should go now - the writing is on the wall. He is just not up to it & the longer we wait the worse it will get.  Conference beckons if he's still i/c by the New Year.

 

Why do so many Notts want to cling on to hopeless managers time after time?  We've ad some shockers and, unfortunately, there is no evidence (or confidence) to suggest that we will identify anyone better - but, you've got to try!

 

I learned , very early in my business career, " as soon as you realise that you are going in the wrong direction, change it".  Football Club owners seem to persevere with tripe for far too long. Moniz is absolutely useless, he's proved that, unequivocally in his painful tenure.  He should be sacked on the back of that disgraceful and shambolic performance tbh - that alone is sufficient to render him "null & void".  

Okay on the whole not just after last night REPEAT on the whole my view mine only before someone as a pop

Personally he has spent a lot of money 150,000 on McLeod plus his wages probaly 2-3grand a week.

I'd also like to know what steads on aswell but we're not egxactly going anywhere are we we bobble between 16th and 14th yea we have a good home record.

we have beat York Yeovil Luton Pompey by luck York by a gift not really thrashed anyone and dominated anyone.

Away from home are things really better not sure I mean we get caught out so simple we play players in thick positions I mean stead as a winger ??

No pace in the middle as smith should not play he's past it now time up admit it.

For the money he has spent the squad he's brought in I just believe he should go

I mean he sent Adams and Bennet on loan after one bad game both have gone and picked up man of the matches an playing well all of a sudden .

He signed players like Valencic who isn't even near the team so why sign him signed Milsom who's now played 4-5 90 mins reserves games why isn't he even near the bench now.

Snijders few good games got goals all of sudden bye snijders plays Jenner constantly when he's crap he's had chance an chance and done nothing.

Brought in amervor then all of a sudden shoved him out he is wrecking Curtis by not giving one of our brightest midfielders a game .

Curtis is a young lad who excelled in the centre mid last year he will give you his all chases everything gets stuck in and has a great engine.

Why has he just been shoved aside

Getting rid of tripe like Adams & Bennett goes in his favour! As does binning the hopeless Swerts, Hollis and Jenner - tho' the latter still makes his awful cameo sub appearances.

Stick with this bloke and we'll be out the League, he's simply not up to it. His signings have been, for the most part, dreadful. He has no tactical awareness, no ability to change a game for the good, makes ridiculous substitutions and persists with playing people in unsuitable/unfamiliar roles.

No knee jerk reaction from me I voted give him more time.

it's simple we don't play this sat coming so if teams below us win they drag us right back in it .

So we then have to beat Northampton and Barnet cause if we don't that's 6 points lost an anyone below us wins even further down.


If we don't win next two he has to go we can't afford to be around late November around bottom half we have spent far to much money not to be around the top 5

It's crazy that we're not playing Saturday, It's not like we don't have cover. As you say it could put us right back in the shit, a situation we should not be in at this stage of the season. I was all for giving Moniz time until we lost to Salford. His team selection and tacics were beyond belief really. Switching to 442 and playing the long ball was madness, the players looked like headless chickens as none of them knew their role!!!! Salford managed to play some football on a tipical non league pitch so why didn't Moniz want us to so??

 

Sorry but it's a goodbye from me as he clearly is out of his depth in management.

Let's wait and see if things improve imo. Lots of bad signings on the face of it and really this is a real negative for me. I genuinely believed he was the one. Good pedigree and something different, but most of the players signed (did he sign them or is this Branston via his committee???) Have proven to be poor. Lack of defence is shocking and shows seriously bad planning when we need Edwards every game. Smith should be replaced by Milsom if he is now fit. Get the midfield mobile a bit.

what's the point in playing good at home if we can't win away? it's not on one game tho is it look through the facts of it not just one game.


Pompey we scored a second lucky goal they should have had 5 so we got very lucky Luton at home last min free kick very lucky and we was up 2-0 aswell.

Accrington at home 1-0 had 100000chances and couldn't score we gift them a goal they nearly went on to win that.

Bristol rovers away we hardly threatend just they couldn't score again lucky

Stead plays as a winger due to moniz Barmby plays as a left back.

Centre backs signed Audel Sprockel Bennett but yet we play a left back at centre back and a fitness coach .

we have a centre back playing left back or a left forward playing at left back.

Doesn't that make you think hold on a minute what's going through his head

Oh and to add to insult we send a good left back who isn't good enough for league two apprently according to moniz but yet he's playing great for stags.

Bennett one bad game against Oxford all of a sudden ship him to Newport he gets man of matches and there playing better an leaking less goals .

But again he's not good enough we have a young centre mid on the bench who has been through hell and back playing at right back.

Last year when finally given a chance in the middle he shined and shined very bright he chases hassles tackles and goes forward and has great stamina.

Rob Milsom has played 4-5 games now for 90 mins and still is no wear near the bench that's a worry he should be getting game time now .

Left mid this gets me fuming we have signed Burke Valencic Genaro all can play on that left wing Genaro has the best cross of a winger we have.

No wonder speno is banging in headers it's his game a winger with pace whip it in and he's on it Campbell ryce did this for speno and he got goals.

But hey moniz is a tactical genius how DARE I

Now Izale Mcleods turn he is not lazy he is not shit you look over the blokes career he has always got goals

Playing him up top and lumping a ball at him he isn't going to do anything with that I don't blame him for bein pissed off lately I would be to

He is a player that wants the ball at his feet so e can run at people that is his game Luton anyone who saw his goals the first one the defender gave him a hour to head it.

But his second he revived the ball on the deck and ran at em and the Luton defence looked terrified

He simply doesn't play people in the correct way he is the manger he picks the team formations etc he is responsible.

like I said he is making his own mistakes

It's starting to get a bit comical how Notts fans have drastically changed their opinions on 1 game. 
More time.


That's just nonsense Danny, it isn't comical - it is cold, hard reality. On balance, based upon the evidence from the season so far - Moniz is utterly clueless. The odd decent display, such as Plymouth (which we lost) & the odd good result, such as Portsmouth (best performance in respect of grinding out a result and being organised etc) can't mask the inadequacies.

Give him more time - to do what, get us relegated? The bloke is inept & the clues are there!

I'm actually relieved that I have to miss the next 4 home game after the Northampton fixture. Watching Hewitt gift goals away, McLeod fall over a lot and Stead floundering around like a new born giraffe just isn't funny anymore. Knowing that Moniz has no idea how to change tactics or make useful/positive substitutions just enhances the frustration.

the funny thing I find is when we make chances we never use impact players you could bring Curtis on even Snidjers for that pace to get behind but he loves Jenner to much.

Someone stated that Jenner must be getting some kind of a pay for making apperences etc and it wouldn't surprise me .

Because time an time again Jenner has offered little at all and still gets a spot on the bench it does make me question that

He deffo doesn't like playing people in there correct positions

what's the point in playing good at home if we can't win away? it's not on one game tho is it look through the facts of it not just


Bluntly, because I buy 2 season tickets and rarely go to away games so I want value for money at home. Under Curle, Short, kiwomya and Derry we were very boring at home.

okay then fair enuf but that's not the season is it winning at home is okay but if we can't win away were still going to be in it deep teams that will go up or challenge.

Will be teams that can get wins away from home aswell you have to do both like pompeys away run came to a end so will our home form.

And if we start losing at home were gonna drop like a stone cause we ain't winning away

A very good point. The biggest issue with Notts in recent years is the home and away dichotomy. Its always an either or....

If that's how it is gonna be then expect a Lowe half finish because good teams will pick up wins away from home as at home.

Portsmouth Plymouth Accringhton Mansfield are manning this except us and we have better players but we insist on playing them in stupid positions every time

I agree that we should be better away, but the priority for me is the performance at home. Success away and promotion would be a bonus. This season is the first since Sven that I've really looked forward to home games.

I disagree how can you get results when

A) you're playing a TARGET MAN as a winger ?


B You're striker is someone who plays on the shoulder and likes the ball at his feet so we boot it up to him


C) We send a decent LB out on loan an either play a actual left winger there or a centre back .


D)The midfield is slow and 3 of them lack pace but yet Curtis can't get a game

E) He should listen to fans it's not rocket science to play 3 up to you need two dangerous wingers with PACE not Jon stead who has never had pace not even at 18

He plays people on there past not there future egxactly Curtis is better then smith now and Snidjers is better then De Silva and Campbell but doesn't even get above Jenner

He is arrogant never wants to change never wants to admit he is wrong an it's costing us away from home

Also if he played people in correct positions we may see a change in fortune who knows my point and I add some valid points in it weather you can see them or not

It's starting to get a bit comical how Notts fans have drastically changed their opinions on 1 game.

and if we lose the next 3 games should we all just say oh yes let's keep moniz were playing football and losing?

You're all entitled to ur view respect it not arguing but I have to say we ain't egxactly improving away are we .

Okay a few draws that exter could of won just as much as us Bristol rovers away they should of won but were unlucky.

Pompey took us apart and everyone would agree they ran thro our midfield like it was non egxistet Yeovil were crap but could of easily got a few goals near the end .

York were crap an could of got two at the end if they had shot across goal

I'm just stating the obvious signs for example Pompey realised in 5 mins Barmby isn't a left back so they attacked that side and had great success doing it

Stead isn't a right midfielder why go and buy wingers like Snidjers Burke Barmby if you're going to play one winger as a left back and a target man as you're winger.

and shove the best one in the reserves and the other one on the bench logical explanation anyone ??

Oh and does anyone know why speno is scoring for fun in reserves??

Because Valencic and Snidjers can both beat a man and cross a god damn ball two things stead and Campbell can't do

Sorry for my rant but look at the facts some things just don't make sense and don't take a brain cell to figure this out surely someone will tell me it's perfect tho
