You're still banging this drum? We're spending plenty, people keep pointing this out to you but you keep ignoring it and coming on to say we're doing things 'on a shoestring'.
our latest two signings were at the game Saturday. Stewart can sign a contract at any point. **** that little snake. This was his plan all along.
This is it, we're pressing and playing with such intensity that it's inevitable we'll tire. With the 5 subs rule that's not an issue and can instead be an intended approach, you just have to actually make the subs which has been the flaw in our plan thus far!! I know the quality outside our first eleven needs improving but I would still argue that a fresh Matete or Hume or Roberts or Embleton offers more than a Pritchard, Evans or Neil who are blowing our their arses. In fact we saw as much in the Sheff Utd game.
Bizarrely, the might be occupied with other matters. Triple announcement this afternoon anyone? CH from Brighton, French lad and a new head coach.....
I agree . I was watching them and they kept looking at their watches as if they were waiting for a specific time in the game. It’s been the same at home all season delaying the subs, assuming they think that the players are capable when they go on. It is a worrying trend.
Totally this...we should have matched them straight away, mind they're not many teams will bring on 3 subs of that quality, and that's what cost us the game. I'd of settled for a 0-0 draw when they came on.
That is true but we were running on empty in the middle of the park for 20 minutes before embo replaced Pritchard.
We'd be getting excited about the lad if it wasn't for the coach situation, just seemed to take the shine off everything. I'm absolutely astounded we've managed to get him here. A coup imo.
It's hardly surprising the amount of graft he gets through. Lost count the number of times he went from one side to another to take all the corners/free-kicks etc.
QPR did exactly the same , sometimes it works and QPR had nothing to lose 2-0 down , Norwich were in the game at 0-0 but were quite fortunate and had good players on the bench to put on to swing things in their favour . Pritchard was out on his feet and should have been replaced earlier as his influence on the game disappeared . Our bench was nowhere near as strong as Norwich’s and they managed a smash and grab win .
