You mean senior coach or assistants ?

I agree, but as you can see, I think some of the natives are getting restless now.
Our women's team fell in a heap. Our 2's are ordinary. Our seniors likewise. The whole club is in some kind of malaise. How will sacking Bolton help ? (i'm not saying you endorse such a position btw.)
When Bolton talks about a reset, it's everything - board, women's, 2's, seniors, footy department, marketing etc. It's a massive, massive undertaking.

Make no mistake the reset is underway and already two years old.
Results should be starting to eventuate.
We can't keep saying..."Starting ...NOW!"

Yes, but lods, they're not eventuating. Not in the seniors, not in the 2's, not in the women's. Where to now ? Sack all coaches ? Tank, delist 20 players then ask for a Priority Pick ? Do we get Barassi out of his nursing home ? Do we try to lure Matthews, Parkin, Pagan out of retirement ? These tough old timers that don't mince words and will give these namby pamby millennials a bit of what for ?

I don't think that sacking Bolton would improve anything. What we need to sort out is why blokes who can play footy are currently so out of form and why quality kids have stagnated in their development. I also can't see how we can possibly have a strong senior side when the Northern blues are so awful.
Round six across three formats (men's, women's etc) and we have collectively lost the last 15 games. Losing is becoming ingrained and "normal".

We desperately need a circuit breaker...a win or two.
It would make the world of difference.
If we don't get it expect the pressure to build.
It won't be terminal this year but if we don't get it we'll head into 2019 with a coaching group under siege.

Precisely why the Bolton Under Pressure thread is nonsense. The whole club (and I mean the whole club) is under pressure.

The thread has a question mark attached to it.
It's valid to argue that he's not....and for the time being you would get a fair bit of agreement, even among the critics.

I have less of an issue if fans get antsy - they can be easily spooked and need constant reassurance. That's fine.
If the club is spooked, then IMO, that's beyond absurd.
