They were looking to see if he booked either player right at the end too. For the challenge just before half time after his lousy first touch.

nzlatic Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Given our league position and form, all of the fringe players who got a run out tonight should have been busting a gut to show the manager they deserve a go in the league. But that was a mess. A fast start by Smith and Fage, but we have nothing up front so little was created, after that we fizzled out and we were a plodding 2nd best for the rest of the game. We’re in a sorry state. Almost as bad as the ref Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigDog Posted October 8, 2019 Author Share Posted October 8, 2019 So...What do we learn about the fringe players this evening? As if we didn’t know already, none of them made any real case for breaking into the starting eleven The best on the pitch were once again Sylla and Missilou with Morais performing well when he came on. Another good game for Egert. We could, and maybe should, have scored a couple in the second half when down to ten men. But the game was effectively over at half time. On another note, I thought the referee had a very poor game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Hamer with his aggression and aerial ability could have done better, but no the manager watched the game with hardly a mumour during the 2nd half. Bright spots were Egert and Stott, who didn't do much wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What disappointed me was his lack of encouragement 2nd half and keeping Wilson on who was frankly hopeless, even when he had a partner (of sorts) up front.

I've said many times Hamer could do a better job up front, aggressive good in the air and fairly quick, but managers are so blinkered they won't try anything out of the norm.

Midsblue Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 For me this is proving without any doubt that the Lemsagam model isn’t working. Between the two brothers they’re supposed to be hot shot talent spotters. Combing the leagues that they’re experts in and the end result is this squad of 27 players. Add to this their interference just makes matters worse. Go back to under Corney when we didn’t have a pot to piss in, the post Moore days under Ritchie; all of that seem like the Premier League compared to what we have now. I for one hope the rumour is true and AL has had enough and wants out. ML and BO cannot survive on their own. Here’s hoping Koukash is interested again or the mysterious backer for the FLG comes forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flemboy Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Fast losing faith after over 50 years support home and away. Cant relate to all these different players at all and may be due to slight memory loss but there is no connection to most players anymore or managers unlike my years supporting under Frizzell and Royle.. Only been away to Carlisle but seen most home games but nothing to get enthusiastic about anymore.. Unless things start picking up and soon then I may give up my going to matches sad to say.

He claimed to be in it long term but his investment in “his” players isn’t working and he won’t profit from any of them. MLs interference as Sporting Director clearing is having the opposite effect. Fans are becoming more disinterested and voting with their feet. The soul of the club is being ripped out and apathy is ripe throughout the place and the fan base. If AL remained a fuckwit but his players were performing then he’s proving us wrong despite our resistance. However it’s the exact opposite and he’s killing the club much quicker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
