Lukers1 Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Did anyone notice when Reid came on Timmy was asking the coaching team what formation they were playing?. As my 84 year old dad said, the cracks are as deep as the Grand Canyon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaddyexile84 Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Unsworth told a fan who pointed out we didn’t have a single shot on target to “fuck off” apparently id have been arrested if it had been me, the guy is David Dunne on speed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
True Tic Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Nearly 7 thousand home fans apparently today, doing our bit. More than 3 thousand more than most gates last season. Deserve so much better than this utter tripe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
south east latic Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 What a horrible afternoon that was. The referee was the worst I have ever seen. It felt like it was bordering on cheating at times. But that’s not why we lost. Unsworth’s time should have been up a while ago. There can be no excuses now. It’s a shambles given the squad we’ve got and I think we’re in genuine trouble with Gateshead seemingly finding form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copy to the league. the club would have to respond and it may give them an excuse to sack him. Maybe a genuine excuse is what they are looking for.

Guy Branston Pickle Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Can blame the ref all we want but we lose that game with Pierluigi Collina officiating. Back to players looking like they've barely even met each other, never mind been coached. Not a single shot on target, and I hate to think what the pass completion rate was That should've been a routine win to set up 4 winnable home games on the bounce. Not with this clown in charge. The players deserve stick too. An absolute shambles. Norman the only one to come out with any credit. I don't even want to single anyone out, they were all horrific Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollandspies Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Never mind the ref, that ‘performance’ today did not yield 1 single effort on goal in what was an utterly gutless, spineless, clueless and shambolic 96 minute of pure footballing sh*te.

I said Unsworth would have gone ages ago especially after travelling to the likes of Southend Bromley and Woking. Even the games we have won have not been convincing bar Dorking.Just wish we had someone with their managers passion for his club and fans.Instead we have someone with arrogance, inability to improve players and with all the funding Frank has kindly given him is totally inept. Many managers would love a ground like ours,the support we have home and awsy and the funding given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayfield Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Terrible performance. I didn't witness the alleged foul language from the manager, which may distract from looking at what went wrong today. My view was David Unsworth had to show progress in January, which on balance he did. The stick or twist question is answered by the board, they are backing him. Honestly I wouldn't have picked a wildly different starting 11. We started very poorly, which is out of character. Midfield is a desperate problem, the criticism of Joe Nuttall is not fair in my opinion, he works hard, feeding on scraps. Pressure is now on the board to sanction more signings, they are backing DU, ok fine, they need to fund more players then, as he seemingly can't do enough with this squad. The referee was appalling today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc1955 Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 I’m well into the Unsworth out brigade now, I just cannot support the guy any longer. Halifax have been on a terrible run yet we didn’t manage a single shot on target in 90 minutes at home in front of 7000+ Absolutely inexcusable!!!

We're not even showing signs that we're a better side than results suggest. He has been backed, he has been given more than enough time and it isn't getting better.

OLDHAMFAN2148 Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Was quite telling when Timmy made a positive run on the far side with absolutely no blue shirts in sight, barely in the opposition half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
True Tic Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 I think we could have Wrexham’s squad and we would struggle. A lot of seasoned footballers in the squad who don’t seem comfortable with the ball. I don’t know what the coaching methods are but they certainly don’t encourage confidence in holding the ball and moving it around. Gathering in the final third when the opposition get the ball rather than going and getting it speaks of a siege mentality which is low in confidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latics22 Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 This is his team now, no where to hide. He can’t keep being given money to buy players and take them backwards. Throwing money at it isn’t making it any better. I’m sure he reads social media! Just go Dave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we do get it in midfield, we just seem to try a pass that isn't on and then give the ball away. Our midfield is non existent on the offensive and on the defensive. It has been the same for most home matches this season (I don't go to away games). The opposition seem to stroll into our half and we continue to back off until they reach our box. We can't keep the ball. We can't knock it around comfortably. It's just horrific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
