shefflatic Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 (edited) Not been able to attend today, but the primary culprit for today has to be LJ Listened on LP and whilst we made awful errors, i don't blame the players. It all starts by LJ playing fecking subbuteo again and trying to be the clever one and 'out fox' his dad No need for it Players like to play in systems they understand. OK Kelly and Forte are big misses, but we have a SQUAD and they should be able to step up. Tidser for Kelly and Poleon/Dayton for Forte, keep the team in the same shape, but simply personnel changes needed. Instead he goes and messes about with it and all the players are then uncertain, out of sync and once one makes an error, it compounds the rest of the team. Big wake up call for LJ I hope he has had the guts to apologise to the players in the dressing room and the fans - HE got it wrong today and the performance was a result of that.

Ritchierich Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Yep, absolutely stupid by LJ, he is in danger of believing the hype, big deal, we are in the top ten In a very poor division but have been knocked out of all 3 cups with barely a whimper. There is nothing to get carried away about yet and what was needed was a bit of focus and determination Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveoafc77 Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 (edited) Can't absolve the players of blame. The was no taking account for their own actions today, arm waving, head shaking and finger pointing yes but no leadership, no real passion. The worst performance I've seen in quite some time Edited December 13, 2014 by daveoafc77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveoafc Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 That's as bad a performance as I can remember in years supporting latics. No passion, fight, skill. In fact, even the basics of passing looked too complicated for most today. Absolute shocker of a performance that and not acceptable!

BP1960 Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 A manager, assistant manager and a first team coach..all looked as clueless as the players..do we really need a first team and goalkeeping coaches?..wasted wages imo..LJ and Tommy are all that's needed..Big Joe and Donachie mangaged it a top level on their own.

NIKI1234 Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 LJ has killed the spark we had a few weeks ago, to much tinkering and trying to be to smart. I can see a stinker of Xmas coming up, just as you want to kick on and really comment your position for the rest of the year, Talk of punishing the players after a 1-0 defeat, changing to many players, changing formations. We had a real swagger and confidence, it gone and going to be difficult to get back after losing 4-0 to a relegation team. Today says a lot about LJ and the players. Those other teams in the top 6 wouldnt lose 4-0 at home. He needs to punish himself tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

palmer1 Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 (edited) So we employ more coaches in a lower league and call that progress?Yeah Sack em all! How many defeats in 25? Drop Kenny Drop Kelly, pick Kelly, oh no kellys injured. Punish LJ, punish the team. Love Oldham, hate Oldham. Loive Corney, hate Corney..Corney didn't mention the fans... This board changes one week from the next.it would be funny If it wasn't pathetic! Edited December 13, 2014 by palmer1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollandspies Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Setting up at home against a 'struggling' team with 7 players who's primary function is to defend set the trend. Talk about handing over the initiative before the ball is even kicked! "Thanks son, I hope you learn a lot from today, but I'm sorry to say your naivety surprised me."

BP1960 Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 l said we don't need all these backroom staff, two coaches too many and still no striker tells it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ33 Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Truth is though bp we have 6 stikers on the book. Sacking a backroom member to get a seventh is not the answer choosing better in the first place is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been going for 40 years, I know the old memory is going, but that today ranks alongside anything I can remember as a totally inept and inexcusable effort.

Why do Rachubka and Kenny need a younger or any goalkeeping coach? Edited December 13, 2014 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh_latics Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Pretty much all been covered. Absolute :censored:ing insanity changing to three/five at the back after we've used a diamond/4-3-3 to get us to sixth. George clearly isn't fit, his was an atrocious centre half performance, Kusunga had a mare too. Wing backs looked like they didn't know their role, then when we got the ball, it was just Jabo Philli and DJ in their half. LJ's fault. Tinkering to that extreme doesn't work - see the 4-6-0 at Wolves (although probably didn't help that Montano may have had other things on his mind).
