How long do people think we have to turn this around

Honestly I think we've looked worse tonight

What were you honestly expecting from one session?

 

[monmouth]

Great. 10 years too late, something good happens.

I have honestly spent so many years sitting oppposite ‘consultants’ who are exactly like him it makes me want to scream. They (and he) sound as though they’ve read every one of those ‘how to manage a team’ or ‘how to become rich’ books that you see in WHSmith at the airport. And virtually every one of them is a charlatan. Just vomiting out American influenced platitudes and management speak.

It was so obvious from the start that he was emperor’s new clothes it was unbelievable.

I have never disliked a manager as much as I disliked him. And I’ve been watching us since 1976 so that’s saying something.

It’s only a game though. I’m quite happy to never think about any if this for the majority of my time.

I have sat in exactly the same sort of meetings.

 

[crazedbison]

I get what you are saying but I expected a response atleast. Matos has a huge job on his hands and it's nothing aimed at him tonight.

Club has been killed my mismanagement and the appointment of Sheehan.

I think it's become very clear tonight that we are in a right battle this season and the players are an absolute mess currently.

Absolutely agree there.

 

[Treehuggerjack]

I'd take Cabango out of that list

Yep I’ve changed my mind I agree

 

[Rhydian]

It’s a shocking shambolic appointment, no back room staff just a couple of ex pros to help out, totally the wrong appointment.

 

[magicdaps10]

How many times tonight has a player kicked a ball into one of our own?

 

[PenlanJack]

Good luck Matos, you're going to need it

 

[magicdaps10]

Ref blows up at 94.34 when their player was down for over 1 minute.
Not that it matters but just annoying.

 

[Pentyrchjack]

Mansfield here we come

 

[Nocountryforoldjack]

What were you honestly expecting from one session?

Absolutely nothing, I gave up expecting anything from this club a long time ago. I'm just stating an opinion that I think this is the worse I've seen them play this season, if you think otherwise goodie goodie gumdrops for you.

 

[Blackpooljack]

Cabango waa no better than Ronald

 

[StoneColdjack]

We scored a lucky goal, Derby deserved that and should have scored more

 

[Michu78]

I am not going to criticise the new manager for the rest of this season because he needs miracles to get something from this squad.

I can't believe how bad the passing has been tonight, I hope it's to do with Sheehan's coaching rather than the players abilities. So many bad performances from individuals tonight.

 

[Swans Jack]

First half much better. Second half we just looked like we couldn't be bothered. You cannot judge this match for Matos. You get a horrible feeling about the way we are playing like it's a relegation team. But it's still early days. Got to give it time. Alot will be learnt from this match.
