At least it would give a new manager a fair amount of time to assess what we've got before getting rid of half of them in the summer.

Like it or not, we appear to be slipping in to a relegation battle here. Out of the coming games the only place I see us picking up points is Sheffield Wednesday 12th of Feb and after that nothing until April with Derby at home on the 5th, Plymouth at home on the 9th and maybe hull on the 18th which is 12 more points to get us to 46 points for the season. 50 is the target. Anything else in between is a bonus.

That's how low my current opinion on things is.

This is a sleep walk that will end in disaster come May.
Off you pop Luke cos yer taking us there.

You can blame players for mistakes and missed chances.

You can't blame them for how consistently we are beaten in transition. We push so many people forward that nobody is able to cover the acres of grass they leave behind.

And still don't even threaten to score

We are the better of two poor sides at the moment, which isn't saying much. A special mention for Cullen and Key who have been awful. And MPH who plays like he can't be arsed. Their goal was inevitable.

Starting to think Grimes has too much a say in what goes on.

3. We very rarely attack from our own half with pace, as soon as the ball gets to someone in midfield, they chose the safe option of turning back instead of keeping the forward move going, giving the opposition time to reorganise.
I'd say those three things are fatal, and if we can't change, we are going down.

The most damning thing about this is that Bianchini is rapid and puts in a mean cross.
Ronald is no slouch either when it comes to pace

Vipotnik should be up front with Cullen behind, those two on the wing. Their full backs must be in dreamland, especially their left back who hasn't been attacked by Peart Harris in any meaningful way the whole first half.

 

[Swansea93]

MPH needs to be given a chance in his natural position, oh no like Abdulai there’s to many obstacles in his way to play there.

Starting to think Grimes has too much a say in what goes on.

Which is ironic, because he says fuck all on the pitch...

 

[Swanjaxs]

Right, this shower has 10 minutes or the cricket is going on

[jack_lord]

and look again at the Norwich goal and how Grimes is (n't) involved.

 

[eteb]

No subs as baldy hasn't got a clue

 

[Muteswan]

The sun is very low into their keepers eyes this half, let’s use this to our advantage.

 

[TheLoneRanger]

Left back missing, but Franco ran away from the danger - ended up marking nobody!!

I understand that Cheezy and Matty aren’t the managers today.
