Some thoughts after yesterday’s game

[Treehuggerjack]

I thought Inoussa looked a promising buy in the first 5/10 games of the season. He was having an impact from the bench and looked sharp and skillful.

Hes not really kicked on at all

He’s probably the only player I think has gone backwards under Matos

I’m guessing here and probably no truth in it. Maybe Matos is asking Inoussa to press at certain times, be in positions at certain times, track back or whatever the structure maybe, and Innossa is better when he is just free to float about on the wing and attack when he can.

I used to play Rugby and when the team went up the leagues and we got more professional, coaches came in and everything was organised, players in certain places at certain times, calls for every set play and eventually the whole game scripted.
My game went out the window as I couldn’t keep it all in my head, where I would love running at people off the base of the ruck or offloads, I was being told that wasn’t the play. Did my fooking head in.

How do you feel when they call us sheepshaggers or Swansea is a shithole and they want to go home, does that make you feel embarrassed as well?

Nope. Because we don't shag sheep nor is Swansea ( Gower etc) a shithole. Nor are they Club related. My criticism is actually at the Club because they invite justified away fan derision by stupidly announcing it. Why bother. Just flash it up on the screen if they have to do something. But it's not that big a thing for me tbh, I just threw it in as an aside to the OP post. It's my view is all. You have yours. Just agree to disagree

I’ve not been arsey to you, just trying to work out why that would make you feel embarrassed that’s all. For the record I’m not bothered if they announce it or not, makes no odds to on the pitch stuff. Everything else is just pantomime isn’t it.

My main takeaway from the game is we’re exciting to watch on a regular basis. I’m looking forward to going to every game now. That excitement has been missing for a few years now.

It used to be interesting during our Premier League days when the attendance was announced and the Arsenal/Liverpool/Man U etc fans would sneer and then it would stick in their throats when they realised that this little club were handing their arses to them on the pitch.

I tend to agree with you. It's not so much the figure per se, if it was just announced in a matter of fact way, or if it was just flashed up on the scoreboard, no problem. It's the way it's announced and made a big thing of, amost as if the announcer WANTS the opposition fans to take the p*ss.

Cooper onwards tbh.

It's the intent now to press & to go forward, and at pace, that's refreshing - not that s**t slow stop/ sideways/ back stuff. Just need some more quality up front and wide.

Yep, it's the "thanks for your MAGNIFICENT support Jack Army " . WTF !

Though as JB says it was funny when we were beating the likes of Man U etc.

Different circumstances now though when the likes of Brum are taking the piss
