But he would have been better than this season has been.

It’s not even about Rosenior really - it’s about Acun making a naive decision that’s cost us badly this year

Iget it, equally how he’s doing with Strasbourg is irrelevant aswell then isn’t it?
 
Im accepting relegation

If we somehow have a miracle next weekend
Then brilliant but im not even wasting time hoping
Have no faith

Chazz, I’m talking about the issues at the whole club. I’d be making the same point if it was any manager - this is about continuity and the biggest issue facing the club this year was the reckless way they worked last summer.

We were bottom when Selles took over - so how you can claim it’s solely his fault is beyond me. Could he have done better? Undoubtedly. But it’s more than his fault we are where we are.

My point was not about Rosenior, my point was about Acun.
 
Well what a fecking sh!t show that was! Can anyone explain what our playing "style" is supposed to be? Today it was just boot the ball aimlessly forward and hope Joseph - who can run all day but can't get the ball - might get on the end of it. Add to that another powder puff midfield display with no one showing anything like the passion and desire they showed 2nd half last week. Yet again the oppo goalie leaves without getting his gloves dirty and yet again we concede a soft goal, because we don't have a commanding centre half.

As for those who say "all" we have to do is win next week - where are the bleeding goals coming from?

And you think we have been exciting this season?
The Rosenior sacking was on par with the Brian Horton sacking, disasterous and uncalled for. Robinsons knee jerk reaction that night ended with us at the foot of the Football League and him throwing the towel in and giving his shares away. Is history about to repeat itself?

Not sure I said that, I’ve read it back a few times and I didn’t say that

Needless to say, the hour and a half drive home has done **** all for my mood, that must have been the least xG goal ever at the MKM, neither keeper had anything to do aside from their headed goal. Their lad may as well have brought his pipe and slippers and sat there in an arm chair for 90 mins, cos we didn't test him at all. I mean honestly, when did we last create a decent chance from open play at home?

Selles can **** off today, if ever there was a game to not just keep it tight for 90 and try to nick it that was today, but no, defensive negative mindset one again and last lot of subs far too late. Pandur holds on to the ball far too long, tbf about the only criticism of him....no idea if that's because he's been told to by the manager, is indecisive of if he looks at his options and thinks **** that, they're ****. Which when your main option is often Coyle, I guess what's the point as he's going to pass it back to you at least half the time, twice today he was beyond parody once when he had about quarter of the pitch to aim for to play Kamara in down the right and turned back inside, the other when he received it in the middle back to goal but in space and passed it to Pandur, to the groans of 22500 people. I said on another he's not alone in this, and he's not, but he is by far the worst culprit. As a team we're so so so slow whenever we get a goal kick, free kick, corner or throw in, like we're inviting the other team to get back into shape and when you're playing a team happy to concede possession and territory whilst tryingto nick one you're playing into their hands.

I refuse to believe that Kyle Joseph is a footballer and not a middle distance runner as literally all he offers is running around. 4 months he's been playing for us, no goals no assists, absolutely ****ing laughably bad. Everyone involved in that transfer should be utterly ashamed of themselves.

Alzate is another who can **** off as well, struts around like ****ing pele in midfield fans ****ing off over him but he's got no goals and one assist in nearly 2000 mins on the pitch this season, for your 'prime midfielder' that ain't great.

Come the end of the season more often than not you get what you deserve, and this bunch deserve to go down. Yeah we had a **** manager who held us back and we've had injuries, but we've also had a large number of gutless performances like today where we've not deserved to get anything out of the game. We'll not see the likes of Belloumi, Millar, Matazo, Puerta or Alzate again, but you know what, maybe a season or few in L1 is what we need, bring some youth options through, reset and maybe, just maybe, actually win some ****ing home games for the first time in about 4 years.

On the plus side, fans were great today, made noise for 85 mins, and the ref was decent too.

Agree with pretty much all of this. Feel for Joseph though. He does all the graft parts of the job and then I can't think of a single time we've passed the ball for him to run onto and we've very rarely played it to his feet.

Derby didn’t appoint eustace until the 13th February
No January window for him

this is on Selles
He bought players, he didn’t play half those signings at times, he’s coached them for five months
We are **** and he carries the can for that

For months now we've aimlessly lumped the ball forward to nobody. It just serves to turn possession over instantly every time. When we're not 'early 2000s Bolton off Wish' all we tend to do is cautiously pass the ball sideways and backwards. There's just so little creativity or bravery.

It's like we've kept the worst parts of Roseniorball and added aimless hoof ball into the mix as well, except we're poor at both and neither serve to us creating anything useful.
