Re: MATCHWATCH : Crawley Town (a)

Really poor second half. Doesn't look the belief or leadership within the team that we should be winning games like these and looking to progress up the table. It feels like we're so used to inconsistent results there's not enough passion or anger when we don't win.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Burton Albion (a)

mad79 Love hunt as a player but oh dear he looks out of depth.

Agree. Reckon he's a great youth coach with his passion and enthusiasm, but not convinced by the tactical nous or gravitas needed as a first team manager

Re: MATCHWATCH : Burton Albion (a)

Furious at that. Such bad defending leaving him wide open down that side. A waste of the good work to get back in the game

Re: Next manager

Get in there and nab Mark Robins before someone else does, in the hope his 5 games for us has given him a lifelong affinity with the club!

Re: CONFRIMED: Takeover collapsed; Back to square one

We won’t hear any more about why this fell down, I’m sure. But probably as simple in the end as wanting top dollar to recover his losses vs the reality of a financially strained League One club not being worth top dollar anymore. And hence the challenges to date and from here on in to find a suitabl...

Re: BFTG Fleetwood shambles

So Selles effectively admitting he doesn’t know what else to do. So nothing will change unless the manager changes. Why is our managerial selection process literally so poor? This could have been foreseen given his lack of experience. I think Bowen tends to have support but surely led this decision ...

Re: Selles confimred

Less than 20 games first team managerial experience? TICK
Win rate below 12%? TICK
No experience of lower League English football? TICK
Negative fan reviews about team selection? TICK
Out by Christmas? TICK
I can see why this was an easy choice for the board. Hope I’m wrong though. Good luck fella.

Re: Huddersfield v sheff utd match watch

Just looked at the League One table and kind of looking forward to it from a football perspective - some decent teams there, no doubt will be a competitive league and who knows maybe it can be a bit more exciting than recent times. I just hope the extensive work that needs to be done off the pitch g...

Re: CONFIMRED - Paul Ince sacked

I don’t think Ince was the future and whether we stay up or go down I think there would have been a change in the Summer so a view probably taken what is to lose by trying something different now. It’s a shame to see some of the comments towards him though, I think he’s genuinely done his best for t...

Re: Ince out!

Hate to say it but we also play a part in the instability of this club in recent times, perhaps demanding change and expecting more than is realistic. Paunovic had a really good first season; yes season 2 was poor and yes we still couldn’t see games out. But I felt he at least had some competence. S...

Re: Points Deduction AGAIN

Not sure exactly where we've gone wrong but it sounds like we have and another deduction will be agreed. From the club statement "significant progress has been made in aiming to achieve those financial targets" basically says we haven't achieved them. And goes on to imply the non-football ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Manchester United (a)

Subs a bit odd. Would have thought pace from Long or Meite would have offered more. Still, doesn't really matter, does it?

Re: MATCHWATCH : Birmingham City (a)

Meite and Long look a decent pairing. Both somewhat clumsy battering rams, lacking a little guile and finishing, but they'll create plenty of chaos someone might capitalise on. I'd say an industrious pairing. Lots of running and work, but neither are great finishers with pretty average goals per ga...

Don't know about the rights and wrongs of the statement, the goings on behind the scenes, the rumours or any of that, but I do know that on the pitch Liam Moore has been inept this season. Maybe those other things haven't helped that, or maybe he's lost his desire, but either way the right time to g...

Re: When will Pauno be sacked?

Remember the time they gave Stam? Think he overstayed by about 3 months so “nothing to see here” isn’t entirely surprising but at least JS had built up a little “stock” after the playoff final. VP though has not got anywhere near that “stock”, so unless the finance issues stretch into management co...
