At least Pulis knows how to shut up shop and hold on for a one nil win.
Can anyone who travelled to Luton enlighten us why he took Pilkington off and brought Massey on. Is it a case of poor substitutions again ?
Another weekend ruined by football. I am so frustrated and angry.
Expections1. Chris Hughton
2. David MoyesReality
1. Neil Warnock for 6 Months
2. Owen CoyleI suspect the Royle’s are realists which is why Paul Cook still has his Job.
Coyle has signed for an Indian League club today !
Phew !
I have switched sides of this debate as I like Cook, as many of us do, and he fits the clubs vision of bringing young players through. But its just not working and getting worse. Butgets and fan bases aside we’ve not seen many teams better than us, but their beating us without playing well. I honestly don’t think our players are as bad as their looking, but Cook and his staff can’t get the best out of them at the moment. Something needs to change because we’re going to get relegated from a very average division.Spot on Teddy !
That’s exactly as I see it !You could always vote for the Greens (tongue in cheek).
Let’s save the planet; but we’ve no foo king ideas how to accomplish it !I would honestly like Cookie to be a big success for the Latics; but on Saturday he was already beaten in his head before we even kicked off. It was yet another team that he was heaping praise upon in his pre match amble; maybe preparing the ground for his post match analysis.
How often did you ever hear Bill Shankly & Bob Paisley eulogising about the forthcoming opposition? Their attitude was more about concentrating on their own game and let the opposition do all the worrying.The psychology is really simple; a bit like a child who believes that he is going to be seasick or carsick, so it is no surprise when the inevitable happens. That feeling of trepidation gives the team a subliminal message that it is acceptable to get beaten; because the gaffer already believes that it a distinct possibility.
Who is our sports psychologist ? We have enough people in tracksuits ?
Their goal all started with Jacobs giving the ball away cheaply, around the half way line. Nuff said !
I don’t understand our formation to be fair.
Everyone slags off 442, but we play with a target man as a 442 team may do. but we never have another player within 20 yards of the target man.
If we are going to use Moore as a target man, FFS get someone up there to take advantage of that as the lad wins nearly every ball, but there is never any one to flick or lay it off to.
What position or role is Massey supposed to be playing, as it is definitely not a supporting role for Moore?
I really feel sorry for Moore, he works his bollox off, wins everything but has no support at all.Feel sorry for Moore also looked absolutely knackered at the end today, maybe gelhard working with him is the answer.[/quote]
I hear you. And bring windass back into the team as well.
My front 4 would be a combination of:
Moore
Gelhardt
Windass
PilkingtonThe latter 3 swapping positions every now & again.[/quote]
Totally agree, and Garner could come on to replace Moore in the latter stages of games where he has had seven shades kicked out of him.
I would even look to bring Evans or Naismith on before Jacobs and Massey the way those two are performing this season.[/quote]Totally agree with you HORC.
Nobody forgets a horc and donnyspage singathon
Cheers Ad, we were afterall part of ‘The famous Two Man Kop’ at Sprinfield Park before loads on here were even born.
PS. ‘The Famous Two Man Kop’ had three members, the 3rd is/was LHL.[/quote]
Aye, even Kevin Langley remembered us when we spoke with him about 2 years ago ! I think he secretly liked us polishing his ego before the start of every match :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
