Actually there was Kerry From about 85 minutes onwards... (would have liked it for a bit longer I must admit...but at least there was 10 minutes of it
Lots of blame being laid at the door of Perch. IMO the first yellow was entirely down to poor refereeing, the second yellow WAS a foul, but not a yellow. The ref was appalling. We rise again. COYRS.
What's your problem? Beth's given you three. Perch, Perch and Perch. We'd have won according to fellow posters if it wasn't for those 3. That's positive enough for me. Cut out the cancer and problem sorted. It will take time and, as Ellers said, removal of those that can't be bothered with different players who can but three games is a bit early to be picking fault with team selections. He does have a squad of 25 to look at and give a chance to. Unless you want wholesale replacement (thereby replacing one team of strangers with another one) you have to accept that the team will evolve over a period of time in to the shape he wants.
In a way Sheff I agree about the first one....but every player was told before the season started that any form of dissent would be punished by a yellow card and as one of the senior professionals he should have kept his mouth closed and got on with the game.......he could have had a quiet word with the ref during the next break in play if he felt it necessary or asked the captain to have a word..... The 2nd card was for a tackle so late it was almost into next week.....a yellow card tackle all day long....... Yes the ref dug himself into a hole in the first few minutes with the free kicks awarded for non existent "fouls" on the keeper and just kept on digging until half time...... The irony off course is that Perch should have been sent off at Ipswich on Saturday for exactly the same thing and would therefore have been suspended for last night........ Ah well our lose is Rotherham's gain or should that be the other way around?
Ramblings! Very odd and worrying behavior. The whole passion thing is admirable, but he can't operate on that alone. Something doesn't feel right about him. And I agree about an earlier post about the mannequin challenge, some of the players seemed totally non-plussed by his behavior (Ned looked particularly peed off, and he's the club captain and should be supporting his manager regardless!).
Glad you saw it too SW and it wasn't me trying to be the next 'Steve Black' There was something really unnerving about the whole thing, for me it was more their faces, it tells a deaper story than one of them just simply not enjoying the awkwardness of it, after all they are all subjected to the new arrival karaoke trials which is a lot more 'embarrising'... they weren't staring at the new gaffer in respect... more 'who is this nutter'?
I enjoyed Ollie's presser. Full of passion and mostly positive. Yes he rambles a bit. Whatever we think of him as a Manager, he is a thoroughly nice bloke. Please give him some time folks. I think some of you are being a little bit harsh on him.
Let's hope Tony puts a bumper January Budget in his Christmas stocking, together the support he'll need, to use it to good effect.
That twat in S block needs his ****ing licker removed All the chants were started in the corner and was simply fantastic We gave it some us three at the match mainly just to shut the twat up Who didn't sing on note He was all about calling the lino a squared headed cumt or shouting abuse at every decision that didn't go our way
I didn't hear any Rangers fans booing Henry in the lower loft and my mate who sits in Ellerslie Road ( W Block ) said no one was booing him there. Two other mates who sit in SAR F block heard no booing there. So who was it then. Did anyone else who was at the game hear our fans booing Henry?
I'm in SAR B block and heard no booing from Rangers fans. There was a lot from the Wolves fans of course.
Re the mannequin thing maybe Ned just didn't find it funny, I thought the others seem to enjoy it, Henry had a chuckle and few comments, don't think you can read much into it tbh. whilst I might agree with most of the things Ollie says he needs to make sure his eccentricity and over enthusiasm doesn't damage the respect the players have for him. He is the boss and their respect should be a given but the modern footballer tends to be full of his own self-importance so might not be immediately respectful of the gaffer.
I hear you Frome. But as captain, he needs to put his feelings aside and see it as an opportunity to create some fun, unity and bring all the club together - I think they call it leadership. Not be a doom and gloom merchant and have those around him being negative about it too.
