So who is capable then week in week out of getting results with a limited squad and no powell against sides with 10x+ yhe transfer budget?
When Martinez did it year after year he was deemed to be shit, so who is capable that will play the 442 exciting football that we all so dearly crave?
Who wants 442?
Our form went to shit because Cook messed around with the formation and our approach to play once injuries hit. Massey’s pace was a loss but all other positions could have been covered with the existing squad. We are unrecognisable from the team that started the season, irrespective of personnel. The closest we got was when down to ten men against Derby. The shackles came off and we looked better than at any other game these past 2-3 months.
The Premier League is a massive gulf in quality over the Championship. Excellent sides can still be relegated given the resources of the opposition. In the Championship only poor sides go down. There isn’t the strength in depth. The odd season you get an outsatanding side or two, but most can beat each other on their day.
Our form the last few months has us bottom of the league. Below sides like Bolton, Ipswich, Rotherham and Millwall. While the likes of QPR and Hull are now pulling well out of sight. The better managers will learn from their mistakes. When you hit a 2-3 month slump and see no signs of improvement, no signs of adapting, then you have to worry.[/quote]
Last 5 games we are 23rd.
Last 6 games we are 23rd.
Last 10 games we aren’t even in the bottom 3.How far back we going in regards to recent form?
Either way we are outside the bottom 3 in the actual table which is exactly where we want to be. The sides below us either have to suddenly win 2 or manage 4 draws without us picking up anything to pass us. I know which position I’d rather be in.[/quote]
I appreciate that we are maybe where we want to be at this present moment but it’s where we are heading that worries me! We all know that once you get into that bottom three things start to get pretty desperate!We have first hand knowledge of this in recent seasons! If things continue the way they are going then I’m afraid that sentiment must go out of the window !

Well every team after a defeat is usually met with cries for 2 strikers and Im sure several people on the team thread went with 442 whilst donny loves a good 442.
Congratulations on failing to answer my question though[/quote]
He may not have answered your question but his reply was as good as a response as could have been expected. Even you should acknowledge that! A reasoned riposte if you ask me! Why not add to the discourse instead of coming across as a bigoted, sarcastic, condescending so and so ( Hope that is ok George! ) !
you talk utter nonsense when discussing footballI don’t really discuss football per se so I think it may be you who is talking nonsense! What I do know is that Paul Cook must be very close to losing his job hence the tick tock comment! Now jog on [edited]!
[Admin:
Because you are a regular and good poster here I’ll let this go (with amendment).
But that sort of language is not acceptable.]Powell’s injury is a constant worry and to be fair he hasn’t really been on his game for quite a while now. Is it time to bite the bullet? Who knows but as things are he is not quite the valuable asset we once thought he was!
Tick tock !
If your football knowledge is anything to go off then I wouldn’t bet on you being able to tell the time[/quote]
Football knowledge? Do elucidate!
Cook paid over a million quid for Garner and by playing him surely the owners and their board now know that Cook cannot be trusted with their money!
