Julian Stepháne…stick or twist on 10:54 - Apr 28 by KensalT
Seems to have been a big swing in the voting against JS since the weekend.
"Deserves another season" has dropped from over 80% to 73%.
Strange considering the Derby game was (for the first hour) probably one of our best performances of the season.
Opinions seem far too driven but result without fair consideration of performance, I believe fuelled by social media. We played very well for large parts of the Derby match, would go as far as to suggest it was one of the better performances this season so to see a swing against JS doesn’t make sense.
I say this from a fairly neutral position as I am undecided on him myself, but generally feel let’s give him longer and try and create some stability.

And lost in the end largely because of the problems we already knew we had and aren't really his fault - recruitment in goal, full back and midfield - injuries

I was a big fan of Marti and thought he did a terrific job and him getting skewered by Nourry (in my opinion) will always irritate me.
JS I am pretty ambivalent towards, I think he has done a decent job rather than a good one and I have neither particularly warmed to him nor thought he was a buffoon.
However, in the overall QPR picture, if we were to force another manager out of the door to carry the can for what are mainly management issues above him, would be utterly ridiculous. Almost like Nourry is trying to prove his methods work and therefore managers are dispensable.
I really hope this doesn't happen, but the signs appear all too familiar.

It’d hardly the manager’s fault we have traffic cones for goalkeepers. No manager on the planet could get a tune out of a squad with these keepers
previous manager/coach did well with way worse a squad so yes he prob even allowing for injuiries done better this season , way better strike force makea a huge diff to frey half fit lloyd kolli and no shots celar .you also have to look at the style of play whish rarely shows it self , sat excellent for 60 mins or so subs changed the game for us
Before the usual suspects jump on the ‘Stepháne forced out/gardening leave/all Nourry’s doing’ bandwagon, it may be that JS wants to leave despite the wishes of the owners and CN. There is as much evidence of both.

If that's true, why would JS be so keen to leave?

This is fair.
On the one hand you have Cifuentes, Kelman, Kolli, Cook, Nardi, Field, Furlong, Evans, and now Stephane leaving, nearly leaving, or rumoured to be leaving in contentious circumstances and on the other hand you have Nourry.
He's a very unlucky CEO isn't he.

Any manager will want to leave if there's the chance of getting a better job.
But I don't see any solid evidence that JS is trying to wriggle free or that another club is in for him.
There is a story about an "unnamed" French club wanting him but that seems to originate with an obscure French "journalist" who seems to exist solely on social media without having any articles to his name in mainstream media.
I dunno, maybe this bloke is the French Fabrizio Romano. Or maybe he just wants to be.
But as sources go it's hardly the Watergate tapes
