JED Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 34 minutes ago, the_mighty_bosh said: If it means that Curle has absolute proof that he isn't good enough, then I'm glad he started. I wonder how many points a team with Garrity in has gained this season. We would surely have gone down if he’d played all season?? Hard worker but absolutely dire on the ball, incapable of passing to a teammate from what I’ve seen (which admittedly isn’t that many this season).

He then alluded to the club’s philosophy of ‘continue to buy shite and expect different results’ as complete lunacy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BP1960 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 During the after match interview KC had that Harry Kewell frustrated look before he left the club. Does anyone really want to work with this regime for more than a few months? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Featured Comment League one forever Posted May 1, 2021 Featured Comment Share Posted May 1, 2021 Curle keeps saying we need to change the players, he then said today, we have no leaders. We have 11 signed for next season who are largely very average. Our best player is out of contract and second best player is likely to be sold. Then add the chances of Curle getting who he wants at next to zero, I can only see more of the same or worse. Enjoy your summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.O.JONES Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 After watching the post match interview wiv Keef, he says that there needs to be a lot of changes but does not enlighten us. Just give us a clue Curly, don't leave us hanging by a thread. I think we all agree there needs to be changes and most people know what the main issue is but he won't be prepared to say it if he wants the job next year. 'Romani ite domum' Now write it out a hundred times and get rid of some of the dross players while we're at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc1955 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 After listening to his after match analysis I think it’s pretty obvious he wants new players and wants a say in who comes and who goes, whether he gets his wishes is another matter. It’s highly unlikely we’ll be as potent next season and unless there are wholesale changes to our squad we’ll be nailed on for relegation. It’s certainly not a given that he’ll be here next season and If he does leave it will tell us all we need to know!! ********ABDALLAH OUT******** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayfield Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Brutal appraisal from KC, didn't spare anyone, even poor Mikey who was desperate to end the interview on a positive note. The only plus point I would have dared to offer Keith was Zak's return, clearly Keith isnt seeing enough from anyone, be that during the game or in training. Heading for a showdown with the owner no doubt, will be another turbulent summer in prospect. Given that every player has now been read the riot act, presumably some already gone or told they are finished, it at least puts something on the last game? Interesting to see how they respond, the 'there are no leaders here' comment must hurt, our small group of 'talented but dont work hard enough' players have a decision. While Keith held the team responsible for a shocking performance, he wasnt shy about being held personally accountable, nor stating that he knows the way out of this God forsaken league. Will our owner sign up and follow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt it though as Mo wouldn't allow it Your "Manager Sacking Agenda" is getting the better of you. Curle apparently quite rightly had a go at the players after yesterday's non-performance but no manager is going to change all the players for the next match. For my money he played a few he wasn't sure about yesterday and should have had his mind made up about them. He could have played a couple of kids to give them experience but perhaps felt it more prudent to examine his more senior "fringe" players. I hope he stays longer (as I've hoped most previous incumbents would !) and challenges the owner's ideology and builds a side he wants to manage.

I'd like him to be given longer like I did with Dino, but ridgidly sticking to the 3 at the back has meant Clarke and CJB out of their normal positions and not appearing to handle the switch. IMO he should play a back 4 of Adams, Piergianni, Clarke and CBJ. Fage and Bahamboula wide, Whelan and McCalmont CM and Dearnley and Blackwood (if fully fit) up front. McAleny is going so I'd leave him out, DKD to play if Dearnley isn't 100% I agree he can't play kids as Forest Green are in the play off hunt, so make it a solid 442 unit instead of the dysfunctional one we saw on Saturday.

Disagree about 3 at the back, which I think is the best formation to play. Totally agree with four of the back five being out of position. Needs to change next week if we're going to take the match seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only player not deserving of that criticism during Curle's reign so far is Pidge, but I can see him being the most likely to be fired up by that comment for next week.
