Negatives: everything else, but special mentions for Grant and McAlmont.

latics22 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Positives 0, we look shit at the back, shit in midfield and now shite up front. That was toothless and boring, not one moment of magic or skill. We have gone backwards since Jan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stainrod Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 May be hard to hear this but there is a reason our ‘star’ players Bamba and MacAleney are playing at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact most the premier league does. Like anything in life it’s the inept people running things not the system. The fact is they have recruited a largely average squad, and appointed a very poor coach. Again. Buy better players, and if you can’t afford that- then you must employ a decent coach. We haven’t got either. But if we did have a decent coach he would be able to make the average- decent. And get the most out of our key players. The coach does matter and always will.

the_mighty_bosh Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 24 minutes ago, BP1960 said: That was as sackable as a defeat. Absolutely clueless manager and players. I've been waving the stability flag but it's hard to disagree with this. We look useless at the back overall but they were laughably bad going forward which let us off the hook. I think they were pretty organised and disciplined but we hardly gave them any threat to put that statement to the test. A clean sheet is the only positive I can take from that game but it wasn't due to us being good at the back. I think we'll be able to pull off enough results like Carlisle to keep us clear of serious relegation danger, but our inability to look anywhere near competent against the worst teams in the league is the biggest concern under Kewell and one that has to be fixed soon for the sake of his job.

Agreed. But that wasn’t you’re original point, which was we won’t go anywhere until we give full recruitment back to the manager. If as you say we had a quality or knowledgeable DOF, who genuinely worked with the coach it could work quite well. Inept egomaniac DOF I’ll say anything to keep my job coach. No wonder we are dogshit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handsy Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Nice to see us turn boundary park back into a fortress I don’t know what got on my nerves most today the performance or Roy’s comments throughout the game I don’t think I can listen to him anymore. mind you nice to see Keillor Dunn’s passing going back to the standard he showed earlier in the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveecky Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 DKD is only of any use when he is on the ball, so if that isn’t working then there is no point him being on the pitch. He can’t mark players, defending throw ins he stands in space and waves his arms about, he closes down space not ball carriers too far away to affect them, and when he does get close his idea of a tackle is to put his arms out and push the player. The really sad news is there is barely anyone on the bench who could do better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Featured Comment GlossopLatic Posted March 6, 2021 Featured Comment Share Posted March 6, 2021 We appear to be getting to that time in the season again when any chance of a late charge for play offs has evaporated and as we are safe from relegation tools are being downed. I did say prior to the Carlisle game that I feared this would happen and despite last Saturday's very good result I still felt that this was going to happen. This happened pretty routinely in league 1 and now is happening in league 2 its probably why most of them play at this level. We have 14 games left and 42 points to attempt to win (solid maths there :)) the majority of this squad are out of contract and due to rotation will get game time between now and the end of the season. Its upto them, they can play out the rest of this season going through the motions and get released and probably end up on the footballing scrap heap or they can knuckle down and graft and get a contract either here or elsewhere. I don't expect them to do it for me or for the shirt or for the club or even for the Head Coach I expect them to do it for themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of times he lost the bloody ball Agreed he was as poor as anybody today. He's best when he just runs with the ball at defenders instead of trying to pass. It's a fault with most of our players who over-pass when they see the whites of the goalies eyes instead of having a dig. Searching for a plus - Tasdemir (who I didn't think was quite as bad as some posters made out on Tuesday) showed a glimpse of ability and could conceivably improve.
