Pezo Posted November 10, 2018 Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 Well as he has actually said sorry and "I don’t think enough individuals played at the top of their game and I can only apologise.." are those that jumped to conclusions about excuses and that it will be the fan fault going to apologise or at least admit they were wrong?

Esmond Million's Bung Posted November 10, 2018 Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 By the way i've seen his post match interview and it's firmly in the nothing to see or hear or nothing new and certainly nothing to suggest that he has got a clue what to do when his teams are on a run like this and that he can produce a consistent team. His record for 2018 is abysmal, forget the history and his bullshit win record, it's all about the here and now and after such an appalling and gutless January window this year, he has managed to turn a play off team back into relegation fodder. And looking as though he has once more wasted a shedload of money. His failure to improve our shocking midfield is a joke, his love of Paterson an utter mystery.

You and he are surely joking? "I don’t think enough individuals played at the top of their game and I can only apologise.." Nobody played at the top of their game, not one of the 14 jokers he played during the game FFS. If that is not a distortion of the truth/excuse then I do not know what is. The apology should have been, "we were second best, embarrassingly beaten by a club with far less resources, who have to sell most not just a couple of their best players each season but most of them, but at least they give shit. I will ship out the serial failures in January". That's an apology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You version of the apology is a little extreme and would leave us with a completely humiliated first team with no confidence and playing the youth team until the end of the season almost guaranteed to take us down.

As is your last sentence. My point is it's nothing that we haven't heard before from him, whilst we are on one of his epic non winning streaks. It's his team, his selections, his tactics, his substitutions, he said we needed winners 10 months ago and how many of those has he signed? How about then, it's my fault I ****** right up today, that would not only be honest it would take the pressure off of his pussies. The interview was bullshit and passing the blame, he rarely takes the blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Ashton Posted November 10, 2018 Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 Quote Problem with home form? Yeah, it’s not enough. I’m quite pleased we’re away now for a couple of games now because sometimes when you’re away you can create that cause but when you’re at home, you can feel like the atmosphere’s edgy. We’ve lost four or five players with a song! I’ll be honest, I put Matty Taylor on because I know they’ve got a song for him! It’s up to the players, of course, to get the fans going and we didn’t. That was part of it. We need to create an atmosphere with our intensity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if anyone on here can tell me what Lee Johnson Bristol City way is, then they are a lot wiser than me, as I haven’t seen any specific way that he wants the team to play ( except for a 2 month period before last Xmas) for the last 3 years.

Got a feeling fwiw (We didn’t deserve nil today) that Johnson squared the ball (I may have seen it wrong) and Robinson had to reach back to hook it in Despite Robinson’s apparent position in that still if Johnson did pass square and not forward , Robinson is not offside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who motivates them? Manages them? Selects them. But to blame for the fans for the formation, gameplan, tactics? With all due respect I saw this comment and just counted to ten. We can't beat Preston, Reaading, Rotherham. With all due respect ADN - Cotts cared - and he got binned. Tinnion cared, and was utterly out of his depth. Pathetic - utterly pathetic excuse.

BobBobSuperBob Posted November 10, 2018 Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 He was asked by Hoskins if he regretted or thought he’d got it wrong setting up 3-5-2 but he didnt accept that Matter of opinion for those that witnessed it I guess He didn’t specifically say it ‘ wasn’t his fault ‘ He talked about players not firing , no spark , etc etc accepted they are his players and his job to get them performing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
