I wasn’t thinking of an easy win but it’s bloody Gateshead at home and a platform to go out and get a result. We’ve gone back to square one and it doesn’t bode well when you duck the post match interview. I was very much in the keep side but the patient fans now restless and he’s out of depth. Time for a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanMarshall's Mullet Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 He's not going anywhere but I definitely don't think we are going to have any success with Unsworth or his mate Ebbrell for that matter. Just listened to the post match interview. No tactical analysis, no proper assessment of what went right and what didn't and can you see this guy motivating anyone? That today was as bad as I have seen them this season. One shot that I can recall, can't string 2 passes together and well, they just seem clueless. Gateshead seemed to have better players in every position with good control, took care of the ball, turned nicely to make space for themselves and found a team mate with their passing. Unsworth and his mates can go for me........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen enough football in my life never to set up a team like today or sign players who show no desire to compete. I'd get you 2 very good orthodox wingers a fierce ball winning MC and a direct attacking MC into this set up immediately. As you can tell, I think the present midfield is way below the standard I'd expect at any level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most fans could, it was a midfield who failed to tackle or close down their opponents or show any attacking intention which handed Gateshead the initiative practically throughout. How this management have turned Abrahams from a breath of fresh air into damp squib is remarkable in itself. Awful tactics and poor player management is not a recipe for success.

JoeP Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 I think it's beyond "we need a midfielder to get stuck in" or "we need a right-back". He can't set any team up, motivate or make the best of what he's got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I make recommendations, if they aren't signed there's nothing I can do. I've said many times on here who'd make a big difference, James Berry well before he hit the headlines as the hottest property in non league football in particular. It's very frustrating. I can but try and just hope the dynamic players I know would transform this club are brought in. Incidentally, I'm not employed by the club I offer my services for free to try and help them out.

Lukers1 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 If the club put you on the coaching staff, I’d be delighted BP1960. I bet if you took charge for a week with a coach you would have beat these today.

OAFC_ULTRA Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Unsworth is clearly out of his depth. Absolutely no idea how to set a team up, doesn’t know how to motivate and cleary doesn’t know how to get the best out of HIS players. He needs to go sooner rather than later before its too late Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking nonsense and a vindication the manager is a complete and utter shyster. Fuck knows what the board are actually thinking. Surely the car crash is glaringly obvious to each and everyone of them as it is to us. Half a season to save the club sounds like hitting the panic button, which is exactly what it is.

latics22 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 It’s highly unlikely we will go down even with worthless in charge, we’re throwing money at it. Clubs around us could only dream about what we’re spending. But it’s pretty obvious that most mangers would do better with the squad he has at his disposal.
