AppyDAZE Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 The only one I can think of is the fact that O'Dowda didn't get his head on that corner. Almost scored with his first touch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watkins1983 Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 Funny to think just over 2 weeks ago we were thinking 3 very winnable games coming up and a chance of a play off push and absolutely nothing from those games if we would of won all 3 we would still be in 8th and 3 points off the play offs. I still think we are playing better football under manning, but today’s team selection was an absolute joke. Thats on him today 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I watched today wasn't the full write off that is being put about. I think there's a lot of emotion driving comments tonight. That's ok, but it should be recognised. However, I have a couple of important caveats to my view on today. One - I watched on TV and know that the camera can flatter to decieve. A game can feel vastly more positive or negative live than it does through a screen. I assume that most who are commenting on here were present at AG, and so I'm willing to taint my own view with theirs. Second - although not truly dreadful it was still pretty bad. Cardiff were organised, but weak. The game was their to be won if we did the right thing...and that's the third game in a row where that holds true. With no strong love for Pearson in my bones I was willing to give Manning a try, and he was my pick when we changed. But, we're at a point where we either go all in on him or quit now and try something else. Prior to this game I leaned to the former...but after that display and the surrounding commentary I think I lean to the latter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Hayden Roberts looks good. Burger from the van outside was ok.

Almost scored with his first touch. Favourite bit was when he allowed the ball to go out for what he thought was a goal kick when it was very obviously a corner to us (which the ref then gave). I couldn’t work out if he thought he was still playing for us or he had a brain fart. Of course we did nothing from the corner.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Balls Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 Hard to find positives in this: https://thefishy.co.uk/formtable.php?table=2&tab=tab-last10 So that’s 2 wins, 2 draws and 6 defeats in the past 10 games. The only upside is that our goal difference is only -4 in those games. However we have only scored 9 goals and 7 of those came in 3 games against Coventry, Middlesbrough and Southampton. Hard to suggest that what Manning is doing is working based on that! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boring football with no end product. If I was Tommy or Naki I’d ask to leave tomorrow. I was thinking on the way home how many of our better players are speaking to their agents and saying get me out of here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
