Jiffie So Holden's been here as No2 for 4 years. Are you seriously blaming him for our post Junior signings in these Covid times. A free from Derby, crocks from Wigan and WBA etc etc And if you think Palmer coming back will make any difference well I have to disagree.
As for our midfield tonight, I see energy. That's all. As for our defence, Taylor Moore may the Lord help us. As for our attack, good luck with service.
They are DH signings, if they don’t work out then it’s on him. I’m not buying the whole Williams injured on Day 1 waffle, he signed an injured player and is covering up
Thought we looked ok until the clumsy challenge from Moore.. defo a pen for me.. Messengo one of our brighter players IMO. Not sure if Hunt ever looks up when crossing, pretty dire if he does.. just lacking players willing to have a couple of shots rather than insisting in walking it in.. it’s not working!!
Firstly I am only blaming Holden for what is happening now, the midfield is still poor it has been poor for 4 years and shows no sign of improvement, I am blaming him for being called out by Rowett for our inability to compete with physical teams another 4 year old problem, neither of these problems have been addressed and sadly on show tonight. As for your last sentence, I never said anything like that, I am saying bearing in mind our midfield injuries, allowing him to go out on loan and keeping Massengo and selling Morrell and bringing in Brunt was poor decision making.
Zero attempts on goal, again... DH has no clue how to setup a team to create chances. We could easily be in a relegation battle if we keep up such a pathetic ability to create and take chances, this will be a tight league again
The penalty was a little weak but it gave us what we deserve and if this is what our future holds then I am afraid. Has Dean told his lads that shooting is allowed or is that a carry over from the garbage we have seen for so long? Nothing has a chance of succeeding until such time as we find a decent footballing manager who won't take guff from those, who despite the words they speak, that haven't got a clue as to how you run and operate a good quality team that will actually entertain. I hope I don't choke on my lunch during the second half.
Letting Morrell and Eliasson go and replacing them with Brunt and, well nobody is awful decision making. I can only imagine what the comments would be if a certain other manager had done this... Holden has been here 4 years, he should have seen and known about the deficiencies, yet he didn’t plug the gap, so, maybe he doesn’t see it the way we do?
Woeful zero shots in 45 minutes. But hurrah we got 1 corner on the board. Moore is a bag of nerves again, Rowe, Hunt, Massengo, ODowda are just not good enough, certainly so far, Wells and Martin might as well still be on the coach the amount of service they are getting. Slow, predictable, aimless, out muscled and non creative again. Interesting stat given out, only bottom of the league Sheff Wednesday have had less shots than us.
You mentioned Palmer, Tbf it wouldn't matter if both lightweight Massengo and Palmer went out on loan, they are useless. Agree about Brunt.
So many on here were chastising Weimann earlier this season, but I bet most would have him back in the side in a heartbeat right now... It has just shown a stat that PNE have conceded the most goals in the Championship this season, and more than 2 per game in recent weeks, yet we’re lucky to have Nil....
