nickolas Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 Well, a bit like this: gave them easy goals. Played well, and to lose by 4 playing as we did was tough. Not talking about new players as thats not fair on the current ones. Not a lot else!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CodeRed Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 I didn't read it like that at all - more like he was saying these players are what we've got and he is doing everything to give them confidence and he doesn't want to demoralise them in case we can't get (or won't pay for) better players in January . Sounded to me like he is not getting the support from the board and he was trying to unite and get support from the fans. last season he mentioned/thanked/paid tribute to SL i n almost every interview. I honestly havn't heard him mention SL once this season.........they've fallen out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harvey Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 He said he wont talk about potential players coming in ,it's not fair on the players here.... don't you understand Cotts, it's exactly what they want to hear. they are not dumb they know they need more players with championship experience to help them through the season. if he fails in the transfer window it will cost him his job. so less of the sentiment and get real and keep the team informed or you will be out of work sooner than you think.

The stats suggest a lot more of an even game than our draw vs Charlton. In fact, if you showed a stranger the stats from both games and asked them to identify which game was 4-0 and which was 1-1, they'd get it wrong. Just goes to show the huge gulf in quality between the haves and have-nots of the division. If we had better attacking players we'd have had a hatful on Saturday, like Burnley did today. On the other hand, Burnley wouldn't have profited so easily against quality defenders. One thing's for sure - the faith that Cotterill has in this squad is completely blind, they simply aren't good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFC Jordan Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 Recommend everyone watches the interview on Player. Think it demonstrates just how much SC is trying and how difficult a task he is facing. He thanks the fans for their support as it is what keeps him going. I for one, wish him every success. Keep going SC. I hope the board give you the backing you deserve in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevep38 Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 Just listened to it on player. Thought he was going to break down. He does sound like a broke man. Think he knows he's on borrowed time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cider red Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 No room for sentiment, I've seen the interview, cotts is broken, has no plan b, what's the point in bringing in more players in January if he is to continue with this system that clearly doesn't consistently work in this league!? We need a flexible modern manager who is up to scratch at this level, keep cotts and we are sleep walking back to league 1 Imo. He gave us fantastic times and were greatful for that, but all good things come to an end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 Cockrill talks utter rubbish. He sounds like a desperate, desperate man. The bloke doesn't have a club. Games coming thick and fast and no subs until the 75th minute? Idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flagon Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 It's such a difficult situation. Cotts clearly believes in the system and in the main most players (at least the ones he consistently plays) fit in fine. The trouble is the overall quality just isn't quite up to this level so even if he changed system I think the outcome is likely to be the same. Why would you suddenly score for example when the chance came along just because you are playing 4 4 2 or 4 3 3. It's the same chance. He sounded gutted, as we all are. He has to show faith in what he's got even though it's painfully obvious they just aren't quite there. There have only been a couple of games where we've been completely outclassed, the rest has been our own undoing through poor finishing and lapses at the back. I'm sure with the same system but just a couple of additions in the right places, striker and midfielder in particular we would be pretty safe by now. Hopefully this will come along January and enough to stop us from relegation and then we build again in the summer with a finished stadium. It's a tough league, some teams have been there a while.

Wave a decent staying-up bonus to a few proven players currently warming the bench somewhere and who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
