Serious question…….

[the other bob wilson]

does anyone know what we were trying tactically in the closing minutes? I could see Kipre had gone up front, but as for the rest, it all looked a bit like throw it up in the air and see where it lands.

I think the minute you play a centre back up top in desperation you are in tactical trouble. Worse you don’t then play the high balls to him.

we had nothing to lose by then, nick a goal and we grab a point

Re: Serious question…….

I honestly haven’t a clue, that’s the most worrying thing. We look totally lost out there, headless chickens (the whole 90 minutes).

Re: Serious question…….

No idea what Hudson was trying to do right from the start.
Taking off your only quality striker when you're desperate for a goal has left me completely perplexed too.

I like Hudson and wanted him to do well, but he's burying himself big-time with some very strange decisions.

Why on earth play 3 at the back when you're desperate for results and points?
They're not going to come when you're doing that against the likes of Blackburn!

I reckon we're stuck with this too given that Tan clearly doesn't want to invest any more money, and we're under an embargo.

The whole shit-show needs to end, but I'm not sure it will for quite some time... At which point, we'll be in league one and praying that vultures like Mike Ashley are not tempted to pick at our bones.

while not a CB, it worked for Paterson

Yes I get that, hence Kipre going up front, but I just don’t have a clue how our bench thought playing like that would work - even under circumstances like that, you need some sort of structure.

It was clearly hit it and hope at that point which simply highlights the fact that Hudson had completely run out of ideas and couldn't have bought himself half a clue.
Very concerning stuff.

Re: Serious question…….

I have another serious question - who the hell thought signing Philogene and Ojo in the same window was a good idea? So frustrating the pair of them. Philogene drops the shoulder and buys himself a yard then he wants to hold onto it for longer than he should and by that the time the person he’s crossing to has strayed offside.

Re: Serious question…….

It would be nice if we tried to score in the first minute, instead of the last !

As I’ve said before, 11 disjointed players, it looks like they don’t train together

They both need a manager to help them develop, we will never really know what Morison had planned but Hudson certainly doesn’t seem keen on developing players.

Re: Serious question…….

It smacked of desperation. I can understand if we were getting into positions to send crosses into their box and we had someone like Aden Flint, but we weren't, we don't, and Kipre looked as bemused as anyone..

Re: Serious question…….

I really dont know what we are trying to do from the 1st minute in most games.

Help them develop, Ojo is 25, he should have developed by now
