  1. full time great away win and 400 tics went today :imnotworthy::applause1:

    good win this one, especially as we had no furman in midfield. thats two 1-0 wins now

     

    keep expecting the opponents to get one back late on, but no.

    have we at last got some backbone. quite impressed. up to 7th now with a game in hand

  2. Trying to play devil's advocate and be generous to Dickov, maybe he genuinely thinks that if we beat Huddersfield it'll be the start of a successful promotion bid. He's mental if he thinks that, but it's the only logic i can imagine that could explain the team selection for a game we desperately needed to win.

    this is the same as mick macarthys mentality at wolves remember last season when he played a weak side at united

     

    so that he could win the league game at home to fulham on the saturday. hmmmmmm

  3. Jimmy Wagg made a great point after the Dickov interview where PD said playing against 10 and 9 men wasn't easy.

     

    "If playing against 10 men isn't easy, and playing against 9 men isn't easy and the referee gets to call the game off against 7 men, is it against 8 men that it finally becomes easy?"

     

    For me, having a 1 or 2 man advantage for most of the game should see a landslide victory. Anything less is an issue with tactical incompetence from either the manager or the players, or a lack of skill.

    correct, if we haD DRAWN 2-2 AGAINST 9 MEN THEN we would have been very embarrased. 45 minutes versus 9men

     

    then you should run them ragged, also you should have 2 free men at corners and free kicks.

  4. Really dissapointed with Dickov's game plan after going a goal up today. We played like a Dave Penny team after scoring. No ambition and let Southampton pass pass pass just waiting for the inevitable equiliser. What made it more dissapointing was that Southampton i feel were there for the taking if we actually had a go. 2nd half and more of the same just waiting for them to take the lead sitting deeper and deeper. Then once it went 2-1 we start having a go again and Taylor nearly snatched an equaliser with a last minute header..

     

    kelly did more in 10 mins than Feeney did all game. Dale was poor again as was Jones.... Positives were Furman + Mvoto

    has anyone from management noticed that the midfield men and not the strikers are scoring what few goals we are getting,

    thats just not right.
