However in respect to the OP I am also concerned that we are not seeing any improvement at all in our defending our creativity or have any kind of playing style or identity. We still have much of the squad that started last season when many of us were thinking we had a squad capable of a play off push. There are still some very talented players in that squad but they are not gelling at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TV Tom Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 I could cope with his obvious obnoxiousness if the results/performance was half decent but if Martin is our first choice striker then we are heading one way, our performances over the last three years has been the most depressing in the 50 years that i’ve been following them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sign of any such improvement yet. That’s a fair comment. For all the focus on our supposed lack of goal threat, we have scored in every game so far, yet let in 5 in 3. To steady the situation we need to be far harder to score against. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kibs Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 Can’t afford a striker because we would breach FFP, but people are considering getting rid of a highly paid manager, his coaching staff (one would assume they must be shite too?) and probably the medical department who likely only came here to work with Pearson? Shows me that people really don’t “get” the shit state this club is currently in. And yes, I’m as fed up and pissed off as anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samo II Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 So many knees jerking around here the club will be needing to sign an orthopaedic surgeon before any players. Still surprised people seem to expect this set of players to be beating every team every week. We took the piss out of Swindon for celebrating promotion in November once; certainly not going to buy a coffin for us in August. Fans might have returned, but patience still missing.

And FGR we bossed a lot of it. And for a period in second half today we looked ok. Clearly we have issues still but I'm not seeing what youre seeing if you think these last three games have been a continuation of the total capitulation last season. Really? Blackpool pretty good? Seen better football up the downs look I ain’t no happy clapper but the last time we had an identity and any hope for the future was the Utd season but then Steve sold em all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TDarwall Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 It's concerning that pretty average teams are scoring very cheap goals against us. I'm not an advocate of pulling every goal apart & finding the culprit, but the ones against us this season have all been avoidable, it's not as though we're conceding worldies.

We will need to be patient....I wont hold my breath! All goals are equally important no matter when they are scored. The fact that Blackpool scored seconds from the end of added time is irrelevant. It was a poor City performance against an average / poor team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall Johnson at the beginning of his tenure winning 2 games out 17. In fact I recall between him and Pemberton dragging us out of an appalling situation where we were heading down. Pearson on the other hand has taken over from Holden and dragged us further down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s not forget when he took over we were heading down the table very quickly. Pearson’s only job at that time was to keep us up. Somehow we snuck a couple of wins early and it was job done really.
