  1. my opinion of him is of a good talker, we are nearly in March and we are scratching our heads as to why we are so inconsistent yet we let players go with ability and seem to be left with a squad full of players with issues hardly the foundations for a rosy future.
  2. Give us something to sing a bout then, give them a glass of whatever the reserves had yesterday, wanted it and tempo from the start, they pressed the ball and worked the shrews team right from the start, didnt have ability but had some heart, too many times this season we are done early on cos the opposition want it more was the same tuesday night.
  3. players do tend to acknowledge the followings away from home more and to be fair LJ nearly always does, last couple of games he hasnt though and in the last two home games only a couple of players have acknowledged at all (one was harkins) two of the main players who used to acknowledge the fans have unfortunately gone rooney and tarky, korey doesnt seem to care for the support too much which for a captain is poor form
  4. shouldnt even be talked about in the same sentence as Cloughie and I mean Nigel not Brian!!!
  5. lowerhouse pub derker have bus 07791017314, think its £10, bluebelle whitehart and riflle range sometimes have bus or minibus all worth an ask.
  6. if the measly amount received for tarky was to finance 3 mediocre signings and service the debt we are in more trouble than i thought. If thats the case and we are a couple of hundred grand from going under why didnt Mr 'self-serving' Corney consider letting somebody else have a go ? It says a lot when the mans ambition runs to getting the club to Wembely and indeed he may have his wish when we run out in the FA Vase final in a few years time. The parallels with Dickov are there for all to see a chairman who falls for patter, a rookie manager who makes mistakes along the way who is using us as a stepping stone to his next project who talks the talk but struggles to walk the walk, crowds of 2700 a team that cant score more than one goal 95% of the time, quality players replaced by chaff, we could go on and on the parallels are there for all to see if the happy clappers wanna see that as progress I respect that but to me its we are where we are - its become the norm and acceptable.
  7. sorry 2-2 a little lucky to sneak a draw to be honest.
  8. rhys and mellor only plus points for me, kissock had plenty of energy but seemed to be trying a little too hard give the ball away in important areas more than once very nearly leading to goals, millar hasnt trained on seemed to struggle even at this level going down too easy he was ineffective, of the rest pritchard again caught the eye and george edmundson took his chance well. going back to mellor he was solid good distribution and was always looking to be involved hasnt harmed his chances played at left back and played first hour or so, turner has a touch of class doesnt do much off the ball but comes to life in possesion, seems quiet and not as confident as some but has real nice touch, ability and an eye for goal, goal was ball over the top outpaced centre half before rounding keeper for an easy finish, one for next season I would say with some conditioning and a pre season could be a real good find.
  9. gotta laugh reading the Chron excuses excuses, injuries led to the changes, can I ask one question why are the two dropped players on the bench ? the other is why do we have a manager intent on destroying players confidence we saw it with scmeltz, rooney, mellor, genseric, JCH and now its winchesters turn in the spotlight all with there faults and a manager who seems to have none.
  10. rooney has players around him at aberdeen who can cross a ball thus utilising his strengths, he didnt fit into LJ 'vision' but knows where the goal is when given the chance, expecting him to run the channels is a waste of time and to a degree we are asking stead to do exactly the same thing width is whats needed, fullbacks comfortable in possession is needed but as we are unlikely to get them things are unlikely to improve and finishing 18th in lge1 is now deemed acceptable for some.
  11. mixed results!!! our position in the league is false we are going to end up around 18th with a squad far inferior to the one i saw at stevenage in august and we are expected to be happy with that !!!
  12. know a die hard Droylesden fan goes everywhere thats what I call real support what footballs all about.
  13. off to see the stars of tomorrow today on chapel road at 1 against Shrewsbury, cant be worse than last night and its 20 quid cheaper
  14. okay play 3-5-2 the system dont matter so long as the players know there job are up for it and we see some continuity.
  15. who have we got disciplined enough to play wing back ? brown struggles to defend he is hardly up for the role of wing back as he struggles to cross a ball, dayton is poor defensively and offensively reminds me of the lion on the wizard of oz with no heart, mellor has it in him but the manager dont like him, grounds is a chalf, GK is a chalf, the only conceivable way yo could play that system would be oxley worral rwb kusunga rcb lockwood cb grounds lcb mellor lwb wes harkins smith stead/jch charlie/philly (as a striker)
  16. ive told you the manager over thinks everything its a simple game really best 11 available in there positions 4-4-2 and try and instill a bit of heart and passion into the boys, dont slag them off in the papers and dont change a winning team.
  17. I booed at half time today because it was dire mk should of scored after 10 seconds, did the players switch on and take note - no they carried on swannin about like they dont care, sorry but that aint good enough, dont start making another excuse up for them, its time they stepped up do there job or :censored: off as far as im concerned and you can include the manager in that.
  18. mk did a decent job on harkins which left us a little exposed, cant remember one attacking play that went down the right, nobody has the ability other than harkins to create and we missed worralls energy and drive.
  19. do think it should be one or the other fans scattered all over the place kills it, even if they condensed the fans into a couple of blocks it may help but a lot of fans have just lost heart, its painful to watch where ever your sat to be honest.
  20. is anybody smelling the bull:censored: yet ? 2700 tells me people are voting with their feet. Is the manager out of his depth ? Last 14 games weve managed to bag more than 1 goal once in the miracle against posh, managers gotta step up soon its not like hes only been here 2 minutes.
