Monkeh Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Wrong. We are down the bottom due to numerous reasons. KM, Maynard Saga, Fit Kilkenny in the team saga, 451/433, Injuries. All these have contributed.....while KM has to take part of the blame there is a lot more to it than that. 6 points return is the main reason simple as that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangers Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Worst thing Millen d Worst thing Millen did was sign Kilkenny. We were warned by Leeds.....he knew he couldn't play him in a 442 so played 451 to fit him. Away from home maybe......but the home games to Brighton, Hull, Forest were a disgrace and Del should of known better for the Forest and Leeds games.

Millen also signed woolford taylor who we didn't need spence and mcgiven are are not good enough, If you want to talk about results the one that will relgate us (if we do go down) was reading at home when we were 2 up and the game was dead, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rate del very highly and is clearly an exceptional man manager......KM was out of his depth, his 3 year deal was a desperate decision after the SC resignation....... The likes of McGivern and spence are no worse than some other championship players.....the fact palace wanted to keep McGivern must mean they saw something in him.

Strictly Obi Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 City played very well looked solid and should have at least a point. McManus was good as was Stead and Cissee was awesome easily the best player on the field by a country mile. Add to this James did well for what he could do something about Carey played his part as did McAllister and Pitman,,,So why did we lose!! Three main reasons horrible luck, with two OG's, changing a winning team and interference from the manager! Can we take a good look! Woolford in for Brian....Why? Woolford has been consistently pony for something like a year or so. Bringing him in and dropping the local lad who had a lot to do with lifting the players and the crowd on Tuesday was bordering on deliberate undermining of the team and the supporters. Despite this the crowd got behind the team and good on them!!! Carey off Adomah on...OK change of shape, geddit, three at the back 5 in midfield or do we drop a midfielder back to keep a 442 or no ****it lets throw on Davis for Woolford ok three at the back five across midfield and Adomah and Pearson wide...Yep lets do that as Cissee easily our best player just needed another player to get in his way...Yep I can see that!! Or perhaps we'll just go 442 Oh bugger lets go 262 or just some kind of formation where no one has a clue who is doing what...Lets take McAlister off throw on another winger leave us with Davis Cissee in the middle and play Adomah Pearson on one wing and Bolaise and Foster on the other leave Fontaine and McManus completely exposed on the flanks and hope that Pearson and Foster can make up the back fo....Bugger they scored! How did that happen!!! This defeat is hard to take because we had a point in the bag and the manager made poor decisions. That is a fact! The players and the supporters earned us a point that was thrown away by DM! I hope its not the point that makes the difference by early MaY DM Wrong! The team overall is poor, and has been all season! Our fans are average at best, and some are poor! Our manager.....too early to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 The team overall is poor, and has been all season! Our fans are average at best, and some are poor! Our manager.....too early to say. I agree with all three points but what we've seen, certainly against Leicester was a team making up for a lack of quality by pushing themselves that extra 10% and proving that in some cases effort can overcome quality. City didn't reach quite the same levels against Cardiff but we all agree that a draw would have been a fairer result. It didn't happen through a combination of bad luck at both ends of the pitch and was nothing to do with the one forced change in personal. Hard luck is a factor that seems to dog fighting to avoid relegation and on Saturday it was City's turn to curse lady luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Jock Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Wrong! The team overall is poor, and has been all season! Our fans are average at best, and some are poor! Our manager.....too early to say. Morris for free next year will help.And maybe the lad Stevenston from Hibs for free,who is another wee strong gutsy midfielder and only 24.He might need a new challenge.They also have Gary O Connor for free to.Maybe that would be a bit off a gamble,as he has off field problems.How ever if his heads right he is a goal scorer,and a provider up front.And big Gary Kenneth the Dundee Utd center half is free to.He is about 24 to,and has played for Scotland to.Encleman the St Johnstone keeper is free to.And Kello the Hearts keeper,who is better.Think he wants to play abroad though.And big Zalioukas the Lithunian center back,who is a internatonal.I think all these players are good enough for the championhip. And if you had cash to spend.Paul McGowan and Kenny McLean the St Mirren midfield players would be a good call.Both are the creative types you need.I think they could start and do really well.Just like Murray Davidison at St Johnstone,who has the tools to be a top holding midfield player.If you were to put him in there.He is big and strong can read the game and tackle.Also Driver the Hearts winger will be on the last year off his contract.So you might be able to do a deal there.And get him in on the cheap,for around £500 000.If you play your cards right..These players would take championship bye storm.

Riaz Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 oxo you are 100% wrong simple as that, The main reason we are in this postion can be summed up in 2 words, Keith Millen EXACTLY THIS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redhyde Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Brett Pitman missed some chances. Sean Davis didn't kick a player over he should have as he rand past him, can't remember who didn't close down the Cardiff players on the edge of our box. Really small margins made us lose a very close game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
