Probably best you don't run the club then, given that half our signings only arrived yesterday and two of them aren't even eligible to play today. I'd call it knee-jerk to sack a manager after ten games but three is next level impatience. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Matty 76 Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 (edited) Two weeks to make some drastic changes otherwise we're truly fucked.

Morse Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 It's so easy for the opposition every week. They know what we're going to do, play out from the back. All thyy have to do is push up, put pressure on and wait for the inevitable mistake. No need to be cautious we're never going to knock it long over their heads. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many games do we have to lose playing like this before we're allowed to call for his head? This is not Martins vanity project, this is our club he's messing with. Who dictates the tactics? Where does the buck stop? Martin.

Convict Colony Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 The defence needs to vary the playing out from the back, the best players need to play not those who did well in the championship and we need to play 4 at the back as that at least let's us attack better. Ramsdale and Dibbling my positives, lots of work needed during break but I don't think you can coach players to play above their skill set.
