cityexile Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 That score flattered us hugely. The frustration as much as anything is just about every person looking at the line up before kick back off thought ‘what the hell is that’. As poor as we have played. A complete shocker.

Northern Red Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 Can't defend that, and I hope LJ doesn't try to either. Sounded horrendous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numero Uno Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 Today we looked like a team destined for relegation which with Ashton and Johnson running it is exactly what we will be come August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin101 Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 Sounds like anger should be directed at the players if anything. Although I wasn’t there. Were we playing a new formation? Did Johnson ask them to do something they didn’t understand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tin Soldier Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 It felt to me that the vibes coming out of the club (senior management) in Jan was one of “do we really want to go for it?” If Harry Dolman was still alive, he would be telling the club to go for it and get us up! This lot were not serious about promotion - rubs off on the players unfortunately. Lack of ambition. 4 minutes ago, BCFC Grim said: Was hoping to get to this but a **** up @ work meant I didn't finish in time. Thank for that. We won't achieve anything with LJ in charge. He simply lacks ideas when the going gets tough. The players need to take a good look at themselves too. That said if I worked in a place that lacked ambition maybe motivation maybe a problem too.

RedBrizzleRobin Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 What on earth was he doing picking Walsh and Kent to start. Yeah, perhaps one or the other. Walsh isn't quite ready and Kent should be subs bench at best! Sorely missed Pack and Patterson. How have we gone from chasing autos to a pile of steaming poo? Something doesn't seem right with the team at all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderingred Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 Well what can you say after that? I can cope with being crap. I can cope with players being a bit half arsed in meaningless end of season games.. hell, I've even not moaned during this poor period of results due to the joy this team gave us in the first half of the season. But I absolutely cannot defend that. The premiership dream is a carrot right in front of us and those players on the pitch were an absolute disgrace to the shirt. Zero effort, zero urgency. LJ can go and do one as well with that team selection. What's needed is for a fan to be sent into that dressing room and tell both LJ and the players how badly we've been let down today. Utter disgrace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Esmond Million's Bung Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 LJ’s obsession with Paterson is now beyond a joke, I cannot think of less uninspiring substitution than Paterson for Kent, oh hold on how about Kent for Paterson? I know that he who is beyond criticism will be staunchly defended yet again but the truth is we are now into the 4th month of mainly abject performances allied with LJ’s performance as manager/head coach has been as abject as well. Starting with his January transfer window signings, they have been shocking and were never ever going to be signings that helped to maintain our lofty position at the time, it was indeed terribly uninspiring, disappointing, wasteful and shows that our transfer policy still has a long way to go, it was a great opportunity missed, with our cup exploits far better players would have been happy to sign for us. His team selections of late, his tactics, his substitutions and his lack of a viable plan B have been exposed and today was utter dog shite nobody comes out of this with any credit, especially not LJ. I cannot wait for the post match drivel, who will get the blame today?, Magnússon wasn't playing so he should be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
