Olé Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 Stupid question, but a number of players seemed to be travelling home independently of the team today (anyone outside the Griffin afterwards will know what I mean). I've seen it before but generally when the players are going off into a break, not when they're just back from a two week break and have another game up on Tuesday. Wouldn't they be training in Bristol tomorrow and/or watching a video of today's shambles? Granted most of them had the chance to watch the first 45 today already.

Sweeneys Penalties Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 not sure they'd be training per se, but definitely a warm down and a conversation. Wasn't outside The Griffin, but the fact that the players aren't traveling together demonstrates a lack of togetherness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up The City! Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 I'd guess 2moro is a day off especially with a game on Tuesday. Why wouldn't they go off on their own on a Saturday evening to do their own thing? On there own time? Many probably have family around London. Tomlin lives in Leicester for example I think? So easier to travel home from London than it is to go Via Bristol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFChayden Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 Just shows how uncomplete we are as a whole. Players should of came together with the attitude of winning the game, banter on the bus. Instead they don't come up together with there minds on other things no doubt.

Are you suggesting they didn't travel to the game together? Ole is talking about going home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was shocked to have seen him more so because I thought they would want to assess the injury rather than letting him hobble through a packed station. Got the impression he was trying to cover his own performance with the comment. Given he wasn't the only player to make his own team at home after the game, it has got me wondering if there was some sort of walk out rather than players being given permission?

I did ask how the players were after the game and he said it was an unhappy dressing room. I also commented on how you could have two more contrasting performances between today and Huddersfield to which he just said 'I know'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe time has caught up with him, as his choices and dithering o the pitch have been noticeable I suspect to an extent time has finally caught up with him. But his time here has to be taken in the context of playing for a manager who is hopelessly out of their depth. GON made 30 odd appearances for Norwich in the Prem last season so I struggle to believe he has suddenly become a poor CShip player in the space of a few months. Baffling tactics, players in out in out shake it all about, poor man management and leadership skills...the whole environment at the club at the moment is rotten.

Without doubt management decisions have a part to play, but GON has been poor, his decisions have been poor and his leadership and general way he he presents himself on the field is not good. You would assume as captain, he is LJ's eyes and ears on the pitch, \now he doesn't seem to be paying that role, and if the management is so poor that he doesn't agree with LJ then he should be refusing the captaincy.
