What does everyone think?
My opinion is yes tired legs but please from now on can we stop pissin about with the team and get two out and out strikers playing up front together and pick our strongest team playing in position.19 January 2014 at 5:11 am #126053two full backs ont bench.Midfielder who has been playing well in midfield in midfield playing left back.not a moan just an observation
19 January 2014 at 10:10 am #126054Macca on the bench and Maynard starting, team selection for me. When Macca came on and Fortune we looked abit more threatening.
And I feckin hate it when “tired” is pointed towards a bad loss. They should thank their lucky stars they aint getting up at 5 doing a 12 hr shift , 6 days a week on the roads,
3 hr’s a day 1/2 million pound a year min , tired my harse !!! I’d have jogged home from donny for that .
19 January 2014 at 11:59 am #126055Given the team that started against MK Dons im not sure tired legs are such an issue. The facts are three changes were made from a team that won 3-0 the week before. What did Perch, Macmanaman and Fortune do wrong? Fortune had his best game against Bournemouth, scored a cracker, had a shot deflected for the second, scored midweek and then gets replaced by a loan signing who aint started a game all season. I guess given previous results its hard to be too scathing of Uwe but undoubtedly losing 3-0 to Doncaster Rovers is the worst result for this club in several years.
19 January 2014 at 12:12 pm #126056Even a little complacency perhaps (thought the game was won before we turned up ..).
Appears to be a case of Donny up for it more than we were, and defensively, not at the races …
Poor do’
19 January 2014 at 12:48 pm #126057undoubtedly losing 3-0 to Doncaster Rovers is the worst result for this club in several years.Couldn’t agree more with everything else in your post, but that last line? You’re joking right??
19 January 2014 at 3:20 pm #126061Is it not time folk realized were just a average Championship team at the moment.Rome wernt built in a day.Give some credict for how hard this league is.Anyone can beat anyone on ther day.
19 January 2014 at 3:46 pm #126064The young lad from Everton was at fault for 2 of the goals. Out of position and as a result poor marking for the first goal and to compound things he gave away the penalty for the 3rd.
Rosler made poor team selections yesterday.No way should Gomez have played against a team who press in midfield.Not with the amount of time he requires.
I also agree Fortune should have started – bit of a slap in the face for him after the last 2 results.Maynard should have come on after an hour maybe.
Well the “tired legs” will have a week to recover now before Palace – that should be an interesting game.
Onwards and upwards. :)

19 January 2014 at 4:44 pm #126070Go on then. Last 3 years. Give me some worse defeats than a 3-0 against Championship relegation fodder?
We may play like an average championship side but our best starting eleven should be more than a match for anyone in this league.

McCann played on the left side of three centre backs – JB & Browning were wing backs.

Watson Barnett McCann
Perch McArthur Fyvie Espinoza Crainey
Fortune McCleanTwo debutants were too many at Doncaster.
20 January 2014 at 2:30 am #126093The cynic in me would say uwe did his mate a favour.
Team selection was the main issue for me, then tictacs. This games was such a contrast from what we have seen so far.
That said, maybe I am doing Doncaster an injustice, poor side yes, but got their tactics spot on yesterday. -
