Yeah, we played pretty well, moved it around nice, didn’t quite build a head of steam, but well on top, until injury time, when they scored. Even at 1-0 down at with 10-men we gave it a go, Almost equalised through Wells. That 30 minute spell in the first half was nice controlled possession, building from the back, pushing Brum deeoer. But as we lost 2-0, result means much of the performance was forgotten. 12 Quote Link to comment

Perhaps we’re concentrating on the cup and will win at West Ham! Quote Link to comment

But anyone with a brain can surely see this "transition" will take time. And when it's completed, I fully expect to be bored shirtless by our keepy ball bollox - to you, to me. But if it means we win more than we lose, I'll take it! Quite frankly, modern keepy ball bores me shirtless. And also shitless. Fair play, I think me and you are on the same page and I don’t disagree with anything you’ve posted here. Perhaps I exaggerate ‘wholesale changes’. The wholesale I was talking about is taking us snails pace football. separating ‘fact from fiction’. Fact - this is crap. First half. Manning’s got 15 mins here to make an impact - that’s what I really want to see now. Quote Link to comment

Enforcing a way of playing when you don’t have the players to play that way is moronic. Pep, who has always had some of the world's best players and an unlimited budget at each club?

Barrs Court Red Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 Prediction. City go on to win this game. It becomes a turning point in the season. Promotion follows, Manning gets the keys to the City and a knighthood. 1 2 Quote Link to comment

Merrick's Marvels Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 (edited) 16 minutes ago, tts_city said: A lot of excuses in there, heads full of new ideas ? its not really a very complicated game. Not playing like real madrid ? have we ever ? Still you seem happy enough with it and fair play to you. Haha, no mate. I am not happy! But I will give the new bloke more than - what is it? - 5 games? And I strongly suspect, the coaching detail given to the players under Manning is infinitely more detailed than that under the previous set up. So yes, the lads have a lot of new stuff to take on board, whereas previously they were doing it instinctively. The difference in performance is infinitesimal but .akes all the difference. If you can't see that, on the ignore you pop. And for what it's worth, I'd go into battle with Nige - on the Mendips - without thi king twice. But the new bloke deserves a chance.

Spike Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 5 minutes ago, Baldyman said: Absolutely. We had a Premier league manager that was producing silk purses out of sows ears and we replaced him with a manager who was a total rookie in League 1 !!! Wtf were the board thinking ? Same thing they've always thought, that they know better than anyone how to run this club. The issue is Nigel came in and proved them wrong so they've removed him because their egos can't take that someone showed them how wrong they were and did it with loads of restrictions in place. I genuinely think Pearson showed our board what a man with a plan can do and they hated that it wasn't their plan and that the fans appreciated him more than they've ever appreciated the board. 12 1 4 Quote Link to comment

old_eastender Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 Good steal from Bell, then he overhits a simple pass to Knight. Quote Link to comment
sh1t_ref_again Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 Watched with Blackburn commentary due to the stuttering robins TV. Up to the goal they were of the opinion Manning would be much the happier manager. Thought when we did try to keep the ball, we had a very good period, but seem to have FA up front, Bell has been very poor and Skyes not getting on the ball enough Quote Link to comment

Sadly if Tommy was more experienced his shot that went over the bar would have at least tested the keeper and possibly scored - then the whole game would have looked very different. As said - next goal crucial Quote Link to comment
