Relegation

Re: Relegation

Well, we saw how bad we were at the long ball game last night, it’s a waste of time with these players.

Which begs the question ......we had quite a few players like flint who could have done a job for us .......fan pressure or management decisions moved them on

So who is to blame for us not being able to compete on the physical route one side of football ?

Re: Relegation

All I can say about relegation is that the league doesn't lie and we are very close to the drop zone.

I understand it is a very condensed league but that only works in your favour if you put a string of results together to get out of it. Our last 7 results doesn't fill you with any great hope of this. The league also gets progressively less condensed as the weeks go on.

Yes, we have injuries, as many sides do.
I just hope we don't fall foul of the 'too good to go down' arrogance seen by some sides previously.
We are the 18th worst team in this league, very close to the relegation zone and need to improve or it is a very real possibility.
Over to Mark Hudson and the boys.

Ah bless. Has Sludge realised the only way he can get attention on the main forum now is
If he actually starts threads on football?

Bloody drama queen

Last season’s squad was an old one which was getting worse results than this one is, so you’re advocating giving contracts (they’d have to be on lower wages surely) to players who are only going to get worse at their ages?

I don't think you quite understand

Players like flint would be perfect for the season long battle we are face

But we got rid of him

And many fans were happy as cats lying in the sun 🌞

Well now they are seeing the result

Re: Relegation

Tbh i dont think the fans have any say in who gets moved on...if that was case we would be fielding players chosen from this Forum.

Who out of last years releases would you have kept that hand on heart would have been of benefit - no need to compare the tho this years squad - simply who would have been worth keeping - without looking them up I can't think of one?

I take Flint to a point but only to a point

Re: Relegation

I think the released players were all the right decisions.

Weve made so many poor signings though I think King and McGuinness should be recalled and we should be actively looking to move a lot out

Agree with bringing them both back in January, I'd also off Sean Morrison a contract until the end of the season if he's proved his fitness.
We need a leader on the pitch, and if called upon you know Morrison always gives 100%

Morrison was one of those players like purse , Hudson , flint

Sometimes he would make dumbo mistakes and you would just want him to clear his lines

But in general when these sort of players were out injured or suspended people would say flipping heck when's he back ! ?

Morrison in particular was a goal threat

[Hilts]

Re: Relegation

Morrison coming back near his best would be massive. We create next to nothing and are no threat at set pieces. We need to start scoring goals.

We definitely need to score more but how ironic was it that in that shocking display the other night we scored two, you couldn’t make it up with the City.

Abysmal defending , under 11s standard

And the midfield were crap as well

They were still our only 2 shorts on target. 1 was from them fecking it up as well.

Weve been abysmal to watch at home in particular this season.

No wonder the crowds are falling.

We more or less had a 1 man midfield. Ralls and lets face it hes all energy and not likely to be playing many defence splitting passes.

Get King back.
