Definitely yes bring back Pedro.
The problem with football, as a supporter, is we all get involved emotionally.Take the emotion away and deal with facts.Culverhouse as a manager warrants more time - assuming he wants to stayI have previously questioned the credentials of IC's team - Bastock seems a bit of a character, but how good is he, really??Also Backie - now I know Backie is held in high esteem amongst fans and I'm sure there are probably people on here who know him personally, but.......how qualified / good is he to be a Director Of Football??Who would be his contacts within the game??How respected within the world of football is he??To me, it's the players who aren't quite up to it and possibly the backroom staff - it isn't Ian Culverhouse.I know IC should be judged over the course of a season, but there is no way he can be blamed for the daft decisions on the pitch and the mistakes on the pitch today

I.m.o. a lot of the players are not good enough, whether that’s down to IC’s mistakes in wanting them or they are the best we could get with the money available?. And as far as your comments about the credentials and quality of his back up team…then I think that’s a very relevant question to be asking!!….as likeable and “local” as they are, questions really have to be asked whether they have the experience or contacts at this level of PROFESSIONAL football to be up to the job. I.m.o. the only chance for Lynn to survive both on and off the pitch this season is to bring in at least three better players and for IC to have some stronger back up, off the pitch. Now, both those things will involve more money and also whether IC would be happy to carry on if his assistants were replaced, are both HUGE “IF’S” but without those things happening it’s as sure as next month is December that Lynn will get relegated and almost as sure too that there will be a nasty “explosion” come the end of the season too, OFF the pitch :( Sad times when really it should have been great times with the club at the highest level it’s ever been, but it really looks like it’s one level too high for any kind of sustainability.
Re SC , B & G, it's his dream that has got Lynn this far......it seems unlikely that there will be large scale changes in the running of the club or any devolution of power. It either works this season with the current set up or it doesn't..... that's how I think it will pan out.

I totally agree with what you are saying there, but that didn't really answer the question.
Think you have to sack Culverhouse, and get someone else in if you want to compete at this level. Some of the signings this season, suggest Cleeve wants to be at this level, so he now needs to bite the bullet and fork out the compensation.Said it last season, for the quality that's been returned for money spent, club should've kept the side that got up and only added 3-4 players.

Then what ? IC left last time and look what the Chairman brought to the club. Hardly inspiring was it. Luckily. Back and Fryatt steadied the ship and Back had the foresight to broker a deal to bring IC back.Just sometimes we need to careful what we wish for.
