His decisions are generally poor. That’s what should and probably will do for him. There’s no learning happening.

I still fancy 2-2. Is that insanity kicking in?

I think we've swapped personalities

 

[Smurph]

Any idea who is playing where?

 

[magicdaps10]

Investing heavily in a squad means nothing if you buy mostly shite. The only two good players we have signed are Burgess and Galbraith. And one of them was free. The rest are, at best, underwhelming, at worst, cack.

We could sack Sheehan tomorrow, we'd probably get a little bounce, but most of this lot would very quickly just go back to being rubbish. More than enough evidence by now for several of them

The window was hailed incorrectly as superb by some. It wasn't bad but we certainly have a squad who are better than 17th.

I think an over excitable fan base with our purchases with a pragmatic manager has just been a line up for us to struggle.
We have 4 wingers, 3 strikers who can get goals with some decent central midfielders and yet we struggle to create......things need to change and the first point of change is the Manager.

Again with this "infinitely better" nonsense.

How on earth can you say that when we have all just witnessed a piece of defending from Key that was National League level. And I'm probably doing the National League a disservice there.

We have got to start facing facts that a lot of our squad are just not good enough at this level.

We’re not 18th in the league level bad, you can see quality in most of the players. The squad is being misused in my opinion, the current set up isn’t getting the most out of the group.

 

[lidojack]

Before the season most people had Preston's team as average to crap. Same with teams like Charlton and Hull.

The difference is the manager.

 

[Cooperman]

What formation are we playing? I can’t see it.

Who is RB?

 

[Gors Buster]

Turned it on at 52 mins and we’re 2-0 down.
Idah’s header in the 69th min was the first touch I’ve seen in their box.

O Dea has a face you want to punch.

 

[Copamundial]

Some crap being posted on here, of course we’ve got better players than last year, the only thing we haven’t improved on is the manager.
We’ve shown our quality in fits and starts, we battered a team on Saturday who are sixth in the table, the manager has had fourteen games and still doesn’t know his best team.

 

[Smurph]

What formation are we playing? I can’t see it.

Who is RB?

I've been trying to figure that one out.

I'm torn between Ronald and Cabango

 

[tardylum]

What a pass that was by Galbraith.

 

[JonTheJack]

Absolutely frightening that Preston are 4th with this win.

Unbelievably shite.

 

[Cooperman]

I've been trying to figure that one out.

I'm torn between Ronald and Cabango

And Burgess as LWB????

This is my belief. There doesn't seem to be any consistent drilling as the team are mostly all over the place.

This can only be down to the manager. The team, I believe, are capable of much, much better.

Inoussa, Stamenic and Widell all have something about but them, but I see what you're saying. We're both bemoaning the same point. We should be doing a lot better and there's only one thing we can change at this point.
