    I never even thought of that. Yep hes tactically inept.
    Id have loved him to have been a success or even just steadied the ship because i like the way he talks and his passion but my patience has well and truely ran out with Coleman now. I honestly dont think he has a clue how to manage club football especially in this league.

    McGeady couldn't get fired up if somebody was knocking about his missus.

    Aye he's having a shocker at the moment with his team selections and tactics. Attack FFS what's the worst that can happen we lose every game anyway.

    For some reason I thought he would walk out a couple of games ago but he didn't.

    You've got to say that points ratio means less every passing week. Must be as bad as it gets now.

    Still not his fault his players are **** though. Other stuff is but that's by far the main issue.

    crappiest weather and performance at the SOL both in one day and get Rodwell of his arse and back into the team he is better than half that lot I done more than him today by going to the game freezing my frigging toes off. The goal keeper as no bottle either, he does not come out for crosses.

    No one else could have done any better. He can only work with what he's got. His selections have been questionable for the last few games but he can still only work with what he's got. He could have been more attacking but we would still be weak in central midfield and in defence. Being slightly more attacking might have got us one or two more points but we would still be conceding goals at the same rate. The ability to get drastically different results from a squad like ours would require the kind of manager that only comes along once in every two or three generations.

    I'm getting increasingly frustrated with his refusal to switch to a more attacking style and I can see why people think a different manager would get better results but I think you are right.

    It's quite likely that if we went on the attack and sacrificed a defender we'd get absolutely shagged at the back and it's not like our attackers are great either. You can argue with some of Coleman's decisions and you'd probably be right but the bottom line is our players are rubbish.

    Its time to say 'the last one out of the stadium please turn the lights out'
    There's definitely no way back now and in all honesty there hasn't been for several weeks now.
    Shambles doesn't do it all justice.
