Holmes_and_Watson Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 That was a decent passing move, with Bedders doing well to wait for the right angles. Quite a long pass from deep, and Rothwell loses possession. So it's Hull again. Booked KWP a frustrated figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes_and_Watson Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Bedders giving Manning a few harsh words after another given away. We at least got an attack there. Stu doing well.

SNSUN Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 It's not like we won't get play offs... I just really wanted autos as a guarantee of going up. Leeds are relentless, Leicester have the points and even Ipswich aren't going away. Play offs though is such a lottery and we've shown that we can be got at. It's not over yet but this last week has been an eye opener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Stu Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 (edited) Well and truly outplayed. Where's Aribo? Where's Brooks? And why have we reverted back to the system that failed against Bristol? Without Downes, Stephens providing extra cover without the ball seemed the next best thing. We're getting ripped to shreds again tonight. We'll be playing this lot in the playoffs and I'm not looking forward to it. Edited February 20 by Disco Stu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintant Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 That was nothing short of embarrassing and it's all on RM's stupid midfield selection. He should have seen it was totally wrong and changed it after 20 minutes but now the damage is done. With zero bite or cover in midfield we have made them look like prime Man City while we are left chasing shadows. Don't think there's any way back into this because they are no mugs and have us well sussed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGTL Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 (edited) Good god. Don’t understand why the fuck Martin is waiting until half time to sort that out, should have been done after 10 minutes. Rothwell and Smallbone are a disaster pair, A Armstrong and Mara pointless, and the less said about Manning, the better. Brooks has to start in this team and so does Adams. And when Downes is injured, Aribo. Edited February 20 by LGTL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as i can tell he did absolutely nothing before they eventually scored No.2. Really worrying. Maybe he thought we could hold on till half time and he could give them a proper reset, but i was also thinking we absolutely had to drag off manning for stelphens and rothwell/smallbone for Charles at 30min... was so obvious.

Convict Colony Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Feel sorry for rothwell, he's more of a S Armstrong not a Downes but is trying to do a job and the risks that he and Stu take up the pitch dont work when your running at your own goal. S Armtrong/Smallbone and Rothwell is 3 attack minded players playing at defending, they are basically doing a manning. Too many players not being "brave" and passing it back to gav all the time, bascially its ping pong and doesnt get to the forwards at all. KWP the 1 man outball we have. Hull playing very well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
