WTF was going on in the away end at the Hawthorns today??? I have every sympathy for all the Lads n Lasses that pay good money to travel and support the team week in week out. They should feel unhappy at the progress to date of PDCs revolutionary guards. BUT...... fuel filled or nay...... that post match show of dissatisfaction towards PDC was pretty sad to see I'm afraid !! The guy was ballsy enough to go across and apologise, in his own style, for another poor result, and was lambasted by vocal fans in a scene reminiscent of a crowd full of G3-0rdie scum up the road week in week out!! Good grief....... Heads Gone !! We are only 5 games in FFS !! We had no luck once again anywhere on the park today, the ball just didn't bounce our way when we really needed it. Gardner was at fault "ball watchin" for the Sess goal. The 2nd when down to 10 men was very fortunate to be punched directly in the path of Ridgewell, and the 3rd Westy should really have kept out. In fact all 3 goals you could look at Westy's handling. I think we may see Mannone in between the sticks next week??? I don't even think PDC knows what his preferred team is yet.... so the Lads have no chance settling. My advice to PDC is pick your best 11 and stick with them !! There will be mistakes, we all make em, but give em the confidence in their own abilities and let them play. Anger Management course coming on I fear Paolo!! We gotta stick with what we have, PDC and all....... if we don't find any rhythm, consistency and confidence.... then we should let PDC get us promoted again next year if need be !! Rome wasn't built in a day as they say ! So lets stop the bitch fest ...... bemoan the result...... go to work and realise that work is crap and that Saturday is what we all live for... Win, Lose, Lose, Lose, Lose or Draw !! and look forward to the next one with the usual pride and passion that we always have in the Red n White shirts. Haway the Lads man. KTF.
I was a bit shocked(I know I shouldn't be) to see that both sky and the bbc were showing a toddler in the away end crying in his fathers arms - it could have been cause he wanted a burger or anything but these cnuts made an issue of it
Did the players come out later and apologize ?. That is why I stopped going away after we got beat 6-0 at Derby in the league cup in 1991, these supporters pay a fortune over a season. I would cancel my direct debit season card payment now if I could get away with it, bring back Bruce !.
PDC should not be going on the pitch doing that. i was in the club and everyone to a man said WTF is he doing. It was just wrong. The fans don't want to see that after a 3-0 defeat (balls or no balls) A couple of hand claps and maybe a bow but thats enough. Yes he's a pasionate man but that was just so wrong.
Personally, I think that PDC reckons if the performance was bad enough, (and it was) his way of dealing with it is to stand there and verbally have "rotten tomatoes" thrown at him. Its his way of saying, guys, we fooked up big time, I am sorry, hit me with it !! If he didn't really give a **** he would have shot down the tunnel without a second look at the bad vibes the fans giving him. Maybe it will drive him on even further? Maybe he gets back in the dressing room and says " Lads, I just stood out there and took the flack ....... for that sh1t performance YOU LOT put in !!........ I got your backs......... BUT Its about feckin time you pulled yer fingers out yer backsides, played to your potential, and we can then approach them for some Glory plaudits next time TOGETHER as a TEAM eh ???? "
I dont think PDC has a scooby doo why it isn't working or what to do to put it right and he looked as crestfallen and bemused as the players and the fans. The whole thing is busted wide open and there is absolutely nothing for me to cling onto to suggest he can put it right at all. Peterborough come to the SOL on Tuesday with a spring in their step and I think a crowd of less than 15,000 will be in attendance to watch it. Defeat is a definite possibility as the team are shot to pieces and then its Liverpool and Utd? Another two heavy thumping's are on the cards imo and 1 point from 7 games will be unthinkable. I dont dislike PDC the man but PDC the EPL manager is a disaster.
I and the Peterborough match now will be come insignificant.the game will just be a distraction and there is no way we can afford to win
The Posh are playing some good football at the moment and are full o beans in 2nd spot after beating MKD 2-1 at the weekend with only 9 men !!!. Defeat for us on Tuesday is a BIG possibility. But also a chance to get out there and show us some balls. We can win, and we will win !! PMA man ..... PMA!!
LOL yea ..... even the development squad squandered a 2 goal lead !!!! The U18s managed a point ????? Maybe ?
We are having a laugh about it but the jokes are too close to the truth did my liking. I think the players are frightened to play for fear of being dropped. All except under performers AJ and Giacherinni who have been average all season but kept their places which hasn't gone unnoticed. It's just another weird PDC rule for one but not the other.
Like I said earlier, he needs to make his mind up on his 1st XI ....... let them know they are the best........and play them every time, in their best positions. AJ should be on the left, get to the byeline, and cross !! Altidore OR Fletch to nod in, not fussed who does it !! Simplez. Let Sess do his trickery to open things up...... OK forget I ever said that !!!!!!!!!!!!
