BUTOR Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Just now, joe jordans teeth said: Bloody awful,but you can’t blame it on the new manager,the players have to take the bullet for that performance We did have a set of players willing to run through walls for their manger, a unit pulling in the same direction, a group who had bought into a culture, who were playing for the benefit of the collective and as a result could keep us competitive even in times of deep squad depletion. You'd like to think we still do, but when the driving force of that culture is no longer there, there are no guarantees. Already the negative reaction on here to a poor result is doubled compared to the grace ordinarily given to new coaches bedding in. But that's the reality those above will have to face having gambled on a change when things just, well, weren't that bad.

ProfitInMyPocket Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Looks like the team spirit, fight and patterns have been coached out of us in 3 days. Lucky they were a poor side like us, most other sides in the division beat us based on that performance. They can feel hard done by as the Sinclair trip was debatable as a pen shout. Bell had his shirt almost ripped off in the box too. If we play like that at home we're gunna get picked off on the break constantly. Can't do much in three days but if that's the early signs then I'm not getting my hopes up. Feel for Cornick/Conway, barely got a touch because we're too busy knocking the ball around the back and hoping something will fall to us. We need to see improvements quick as that was mind numbingly boring to watch. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lansdown and Tinnion have a lot to answer for. I don’t agree with the decision to sack Pearson for one second, but seriously you’ve got to give it more time than this. We’re unlikely to see much of a “bounce”, because this wasn’t a situation where the players had stopped performing for the manager or he wasn’t getting as much out of the team as he might. Pearson’s record was about par for the ability of this squad, so you can’t expect a “bounce” above what they are actually capable of. Manning may well implement “front foot football”, but he’s had two sessions. The players are suddenly hearing a new voice, with a new style, giving new instructions. We really should allow for a transition period, rather than throwing the toys out of the pram after one disappointing performance. I did say previously that the problem for the board is that the decision was so unpopular, the new incumbent needs to do very well very well quickly or people will turn. But rushing to judgement after one game is ridiculous. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
