I have always said Leam was sacked too soon.
However, he is also the person who signed Magennis on a 3 yr deal at the age he is, on 6k a week.
So let’s not be looking through rose tinted glasses at him. He made mistakes too. His football style was dire… Kolo was an absolute disaster of an appointment. Maloney has a massive job on his hands..hes not going to get much of a break this summer with the job he has on.
I absolutely will look at the guy who did the impossible in admin season and followed it up with the title the following season through rise tinted spectacles.
Football style was dire?! We scored goals last season and had so many great away days. Yes this season would have been hard but he proved early on he was capable of winning games away from home, something no one has achieved since.
Yes Magennis was a poor signing but not every signing is going to work out. And as pointed out, Leam would identify who he wants, not negotiate the contract
I rest my case. Should never have been sacked, we have what we deserve. Only difference between Maloney and Kolo is he engages with the fans and does a better interview.
Absolute garbage again today against an absolutely shite team.
It’s slow and boring to watch Maloney. Your honeymoon period is well and truly over
Maloney got it badly wrong today and his honeymoon period is coming to a very quick end.
He left Hughes badly exposed as a right back.
It’s awful watching Nyambe when he’s on his “good” right foot let alone when it’s on his left foot. He is incapable of making a pass down the line as a result.
Fletcher is pointless. I’ve been told today that there’s issues behind the scenes with Wyke. No idea if that’s true or not but something is happening behind the scenes that we aren’t privy to.
The club still aren’t being transparent for me. Keane signed a 3 year contract in the summer but no statement released. No updates given on Wyke who’s supposed to be our talisman on at least 10k a week
Gutted I’m stuck with Blackpool tickets
Just end the season now
Something must of happened behind the scenes. There is no way on this planet would you ever continue to play Fletcher ahead of Wyke. Maloney said last week that Wyke was left out for “tactical” reasons 🤷♂️
Fletcher is garbage end of.
Aasgaard is definitely poor at the moment. His first thought every time is a 3 yard pass backwards. Where has his maverick spirit gone? The ability and desire to play a ball forward. Not just him though, everyone prefers the safe 3 yard pass backwards rather than trying to run past a player or playing a forward pass or god forbid putting a cross in.
I’m so frustrated travelling home from Sheffield. Frustrated that I think there was an opportunity today but also frustrated that I know Fletcher will lead the line again on Monday. I like Maloney……but what does he see 🤷♂️. Leam never EVER played him. Is this why he was sacked? Because Leam was right not to play him. He is shite
May think I’m nit picking but after seeing Itv highlights am I alone in thinking Amos should have done better with their goal ? It was a good height…..and seemed to go right through him.
That was my initial thought as well but on replay he was very close and hit it very well. The 2 defenders (Caulker and Nyambe i think) both got sold too easily and allowed a predominantly left footed player to get set on his left foot
Hats off to everyone one of them for turning up and giving everything they got.
Agree with CW. Terribly negative 1st half, game changed when Lang came on and then Magennis. Enjoyable 2nd half to watch.
I really believe we are a better team with Naylor in the side
Yes stupid sending off but he’s only a kid and far bigger and better players have done the same and worse in the past.
I actually think the Caulker header was a better chance. He headed it straight down the middle when a foot either side was a goal. I’m not a Fletcher fan but I actually give credit to the keeper for the save.
I agree something doesn’t feel quite right but I’ve got to believe and hope they still have the club at heart. I’ve got to believe that by releasing the statements it means they aren’t throwing the towel in.
I just don’t understand why they weren’t done before the game. Poor Maloney looked absolutely shattered before and after the game. He deserves better than this
When I say “reported” it hasn’t come from official sources.
It’s probably from social media, but still very worrying to read
Now being reported that the club haven’t been able to contact Mr Al Jasmin or Talal for the last 2 weeks.
Safe to say we are fuck@d
Everyone presuming a 3 point deduction but I reckon the fact we also seem to have ignored the sanction of having 125% of the wages on stand by will mean the EFL can hammer us further.
3 points for failing to pay.
Who knows what for ignoring the punishment 🤷♂️I really hope I’m wrong
And so the drivel continues as we plummet back towards League 1.
That is one win in 16 now
Some of you will still never admit it but this team would have stayed up under Leam. It may not have been pretty but he understood the limitations this squad had and his previous record with them showed he could get every last ounce of performance out of them. I have still yet to “get out of my seat with excitement” in any game under the 2 managers since.
Huge error made by the board
All our own fault by all accounts. Burnley offered to cap the price if we reciprocated. We refused and charged them £29 for the game at ours. What goes around comes around unfortunately. Ridiculous prices for any football let alone championship football
Completely the wrong way for Amos to claim the ball. He needs to spread himself and then the ball never goes past him. Instead he practically kneels down which makes him very narrow and easier to pass and con the ref
We are toothless.
McClean – love the guy but he offers nothing but aggro apart from his dead ball corners
Lang – yard to slow at this level. Runs the ball into touch too often and doesn’t have a cross in him
Keane – leads the press well but again needs too much time to get the ball under control
Fletcher – really don’t think he offers anything. Maybe would be better if we actually crossed a decent ball………but I doubt it
Magennis – read Fletcher
Wyke – think we desperately need him fit but season is drifting away from him
