don’t be silly fella… they just need a decent manager remember

it’s refreshing to have someone who understands tactics, who adapts to the opposition and who’s substitutions change games. So we can finally see this upper midtable squad flourish.

I said earlier in the season I’d change the entire back 5 if I could. Seen nothing since to change my mind.

Reality is… we deservedly beat 2 of the worst teams in the league at home and fluked a win at wolves who could have had as many as palace have.

It’s done now, all sides get rinsed sometimes. We need to bury this and move on. We need to dust ourselves down, we’re still out of the bottom 3. The Leicester game in particular is going to be huge.

I was absolute buzzing 2.30 thinking we gonna be top of this mini league and we are pulling ourselves out the mere. then booooooooooooooom I now think this team has no heart and are on the brink of going down that was way to easy 2nd half. embarrassing its like you flick a switch and the players just change into non league players.

2nd half was. I had to mute the sound because that ex player commentator Andy Mingecliff was doing my nut in. I'm putting it down to one of those games. What ****ing annoyed me more than the result was the feckers leaving early. I've never done it and never will. Stay to the end through good games and bad. :headbang:

its just to easy to score against us. takes us about 10 tries to get 1 goal. every opposition look like scoring in every attack if its not the first its defo the 2nd. how a team can play 20 odd mins looking dominant then get played off the park baffles the hell out of me. yes things change in a game tactics etc but jesus christ its like different players at times.

Not necessarily sure they flick a switch, I think it's just they are really, really poor quality. Someone posted previously about who buys these players and it really does beg the question of how some of these professionals get through the grades as you would play against some better lads on a Sunday morning after having 10 pints the night before.

Rutter is one of the worst buys I've ever seen, comes into games with his sleeves down around his hands and walks on as if he couldn't give a toss, plays like it too. McKennie is another mystery of the world, on the books at Juve, how on Gods green Earth I'll never know why, he wouldn't make it at Forest Green for me. Defensively we have needed strong signings for years and have failed miserably to fill that void. Ayling is all action and to be fair tries hard but he's just not upto this level. Koch and Striujk the same, not strong enough to bring on as subs, yet are starters. Roca gives the ball away time and time again and does sfa in the midfield for my liking, also likes to get on the set pieces and can't beat the first man for love nor money. Harrison and Aaronson are industrious but have zero clinical ability, sometimes it falls right for Harrison on a given day but Aaronson can't find a final pass or score to save himself.

Usually don't bother posting but just very annoyed having had to endure that game today. Also felt a win would make us more or less safe but foolishly I haven't learned from the past, Liverpool next up as well could be disastrous for the GD now as its going to go right down to the end again after that display. We are definitely the worst side in the league squad wise and need a minor miracle to help keep us up.

Bad day at the office unfortunately.

Credit to Palace though as they were excellent second half but it’s amazing how the goal just before HT and Firpo’s yellow changed the game.

Onwards and upwards has to be the mantra with the main upside being we’re still 2 points above the relegation zone with all to play for.
