  1. We've rarely played a pass in front of a wide player to run onto, everything is played so they have to play it backwards, it's bloody awful to watch and tbf it's light years away from Tuesdays performance. So pedestrian with a complete lack of urgency all over the pitch.
  2. Absolute classic Bristol City. No pace to our game and very little in the way of creativity....
  3. A new keeper for competition is probably a good idea. But a keeper should be at the bottom of our priorities now. Bentley was a great shot stopper but used to frighten me to death from crosses into our box and our defence were never sure if he would deal with it. Max is the total opposite and the defenders are more than comfortable with him dealing with high balls. His shot stopping is as good as Bentleys was and his command of his 6 yard box is far superior. When I listened to Shay Given talk about him saying what a good keeper he was only confirmed what I think.
  4. Very impressed so far at how we've played. IF only we had a winger who could pick out a player in the box....build up is good but our crossing from good wide positions is so bloody poor.
  5. Just imagine the unlikely scenario where we go on a ridiculous winning streak......but the downside being that the football is poor and the scoreline is mostly a flukey 1-0 win, catapulting us into the play offs.....Happy or not?
  6. The keeper was already going down to his left before Bell shot. Seen it a few times now and it looked a lot easier to round the keeper and roll the ball in with his left foot. I also thought him and Harry caused them lots of problems. If we'd gone in at ht 4 up nobody would mention the change of tactics..... Let's just savour the win.
  7. I really don't disagree with you. We are where we are and sadly very little sign of things changing. Subs were needed at ht last night as we were being completely overrun in midfield. It shows our lack of depth and quality when we bring on Bell and Mehmeti to change a game. There comes a time when you have to buy players for the here and now as there maybe a different sort of future that we planned.
  8. But his highest win rate here in 2 1/2 seasons was 36% and that would be enough to finish bottom half.....
  9. NPs had a highest win rate of 36% in his time here and that was never going to be enough for top 6
  10. We'd have a new manager every month if that was the case.
  11. Bloody hell....if we could only be an 'average' team like that. For the championship they are a very good side and probably should have scored a lot more tonight. We've got a squad sprinkled with free transfers,academy and league one. I don’t care who the manager is,we are where we are due to that touch of quality lacking.
  12. 1) Agreed 2) I gave up trying.... 3) Still scratching my head now. 4) With Scott and Semenyo still here maybe an outside chance. I currently rank us lower half at best. 5) Agreed 6) Men against boys, second best in every position and facet of the game,embarrassingly so at times.
  13. Mehmeti is so poor,looks like a little kid asked if he wants to join in for a game with the big boys in the park.
  14. Really don't know what his best position is....not a winger or CF so unsure where he slots in.
  15. It couldn't be a boxing match......heavyweight against a featherweight isn't allowed.
  16. Sadly they can't really say anything positive about us because we've been bloody dire.
  17. Leeds are doing to us the same as my lad did to Stretch Armstrong at Christmas.......
  18. Start the half with the same team and surprise, surprise....got exactly what we deserved.
  19. Our passing tonight has been bloody abysmal. Wells no longer has the legs to get away from his marker and we're just so pedestrian in midfield. Defensively poor tonight and have MoL to thank for going in level. Big shake up at ht needed.
  20. Everyone has opinions on different players. I think JK is currently playing in the wrong position and would be far more effective playing just in front of the defence. A while ago Vyner shouldn't have got a new contract. Tanner wasn't good enough (currently 2 of best players) For me the 2 players that recently have been consistently poor are Mehmeti and Bell......but that is my opinion, we all have them.
  21. Have you seen the faces and arm waving of some premiership managers when they equalise late in the game or score what could be a winner? It's trying to get across to the players to keep calm and see the game out..... aka keeping their emotions in check, if we did that last night and didn't switch off at the throw in that led to the equaliser we come away with 3 points.
  22. So Max it seems is the latest 'he's only league 1 standard'. We would currently be without Vyner, Tanner, Williams, James and Conway if the football managers on here actually had their way.
  23. Amazed that Mehmeti is out for the 2nd half.....
  24. Seriously, anyone watching on these dodgy streams need to be very careful....especially if warned about malware..you may regret it later.
