Blue_Pizza Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Serious lack of Plan B? Lost 9 of the last 11 we have gone behind in, and not shown much fight in any of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well when we're one down with ten men, i don't see the point in bringing a striker off for a defender, maybe as it was only half time and a goal it was just about acceptable. But then at 2-0 down, defender for defender? Yes it is as baffling as Shez's decisions at MK Dons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a plan B for that situation ? well ye there should be. not trying to criticise penney or anything but as manager its his job to have a plan B and deal with whatever situation arises. as for the taking a forward off for a defender it was daft. i alwayd think its stupid to do that. leaving one up front just invites pressure. it gives no out let so the ball gets hoofed up there defenders win the ball and they start attacking againand then when you consider we were losing it should have been a no brainer. attack is the best form of defence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penneys plan was different. He tried to lock up the defence and hit them on counter with Ryan (its bloody obvious even if you dont agree - but he did have a plan) That was clearly his plan E. It was not a Plan B, that would involved having a proper squad to pick from. Edited November 25, 2009 by oafc0000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't set your team up to attack then you aren't gonna score goals, and we all no what goals make don't we?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobOAFC Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 We need to take more risks when going forward when we go down i think, i can understand penneys decision to take blackman and put jacobsen on, we didnt have the balance needed in defence so it was almost a must change, the other choice was to play with an unbalanced defence for the last few minutes of the half, this is what we can say penney shud of done, as then jacobsen cud of come on for hazel, since he got subbed at HT. Lost 3-0, that was last night, got a full week to prepare for leeds now, the lads need to get their heads down, forget about last night and give us a show against leeds!

bensonio Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 I don't even think Penney has played his plan A or B. Seeing Jacobson and Purdie are yet to start games he hasn't started with ihs prefered 11 and judging by our injury record, probably never will. We've been a patched up squad for some time now so not getting our way is to be expected until it hopefully clears up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
