Lew-T Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 This time pal! Sorry but this is your downfall today. A team selection that is slightly odd and isn't working. We are playing against a side that has conceding the second most goals at home in the league and we play Brett on his own? Wood has to play with him. We need to play to our strengths and not worry about the opposition. Come on Del get Wood on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hand of RO'D Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 I like the look of this team, also this looks like a team who has got goals in them. The only worry for me is Mcgivern at LB, just isn't for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BristolCity1992 Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Beat me to it Joe. We are all football managers on here, I love it. No doubt had this have worked Lew would have been on here saying how he predicted this team would win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esmond Million's Bung Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 I think yet again he has tried to set up hopefully not to concede and then try to nick it near the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screech Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 When will it sink in, you have to go for wins against teams around us, we cannot hope to survive on negative tactics. We are fast running out of games and we are hoping something will happen instead of making something happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hinsleburg Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 If we go down he should go. But I guest our inept and clueless board or whoever runs this shambles will keep him . No in my opinion he shouldn't, why not let him build a squad from scratch in the summer, i'm sure the vast majority would agree that so far his signings have made a positive impact and should be allowed to start in the summer with lots of players out of contract.

Spike Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 If we go down he should go. Honestly the problem is the squad is piss poor, Del can't be blamed. Same old story of the fans knowing better than the manager when it's the fans who watch the games but the manager who deals with the players, does the training etc Fans always think they know better than the manager when results go wrong but the simple fact is Del is working with mostly crap and it shows. He's most likely used to bringing in hard workers who don't talk back but all we have is a bunch of know it all players who think they know best and don't listen.

Mendip City Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 When will it sink in, you have to go for wins against teams around us, we cannot hope to survive on negative tactics. We are fast running out of games and we are hoping something will happen instead of making something happen. Spot on. What's going on? I'm really worried about the state fo this club. Supporters dont like defensive football but we'll just about stomach it, if it working. It's not working though, we're conceding soft goals as in the Millen era and looking less and less threatening in front of goal (there is the third goal by the way and they missed a sitter 5 minutes ago). Has McInnes improved things? Well half the back for is "his" and our best defender Fontaine wasn't available to Millen for most of the early part of the season. I'd say we are not improving. We're in danger of defending our way to relegation - I hope not but it's going to be close. Relegation happens, one of those things, but we're not entertaining supporters and they are drifting away from The Gate... what the heck will crowds be like if we land in League 1? I think that McInnes needs to find a Plan B. His approach is so cautious (2 up front today but he's come up with a bonkers plan of playing our most creative player as one of the front two and no right sided player in midfield). If he can't change things soon then the same will happen to all manager who: - Can't stop their team scoring - Can't get their team scoring - Don't entertain the fanbase Hopefully he sorts it out soon, it has to improve in the next 2-3 games otherwise the board start to get twitchy as we are still only one "honeymoon period" from safety. If he can't come up with Plan B then, well is he good enough? Come on Del, please sort it out - you may aswell go for it, we (and you) have nothing to lose!!!

havanatopia Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 I am trying though to understand why we are still leaking so many goals.. he has brought two defenders in which, in theory, should reduce the number of goals not, in fact, make it worse. If you say you need several matches to bed em in it is obvious we would have been better off not tinkering? First bit of criticism from me but meant to be constructive.

Mendip City Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 I'm not in that vast majority, sorry. his signings arent that positive tbh. They havent really set our team alive, mainly they have thus far allowed us to slump I agree, half the back 4 is Del's and we're still conceding goals for fun. He's also got Fontaine - Millen didn't for the last few months. His signings aren't improving things, he isn't improving things. Oh and he's also dropped the target man he so desperately needed.

old_eastender Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Del got it horribly wrong with his starting formation. Should have started with Wood, in place of Marv or Killa (Cisse MUST play). Then to take Cisse off at half-time, if that was not because he got injured - that was an awful call.

Betelgeuse Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 We just need to go all out attack from now on. This isn't working. Like someone said earlier, if defensive football can scrape results then we can just about accept it but it's not working. 5 away defeats in a row without scoring! The 2-2 against Palace felt like a win and they were in no form what so ever! Lets please try 4-4-2, it can't get any worse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
22A Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 We are playing against a side that has conceding the second most goals at home in the league and we play Brett on his own? I couldn't understand why Brett was taking 2nd half corners when surely, he should have been on the receiving end from them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brizzle Jordan Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 I couldn't understand why Brett was taking 2nd half corners when surely, he should have been on the receiving end from them? Pitman is our best corner taker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
