City failed to score in six of the eleven games Morison was in charge of this season. The last of those games was a 1-0 defeat at Huddersfield - a team so bad they've yet to be out of the relegation zone this season. If City were more threatening under Morison, then let's be honest - the difference was so slight as to be barely noticeable.
Yeah we weren’t exactly setting the world on fire goal scoring wise but were playing much better football.
How could it be better if we weren't scoring goals or winning games?
I didn’t see anything as bad as our last four league games under Morison this season - we had weaknesses and there’s no great difference between the records of Morison and Hudson, but I saw more potential for improvement early in the season than I do now.
Results are what matter, but I thought we were clearly a better team under Morison, or at least it looked like we had a coherent plan and had much more of a cutting edge. Ultimately what did him in was Watters and Harris not putting the ball in the back of the net, which admittedly was a problem of his own making, but in terms of chances created and actually looking like a team who hadn't been thrown together in the bar the night before on the back of a napkin, it was night and day Morison to Hudson IMO.
And ultimately whether you agree or disagree, sacking a manager you've let sign 17 players just to let his assistant with less managerial experience take a crack at the job in the hopes thing get better is not the sign of a sanely run club. If we'd got an experienced manager in to replace Morison I'd have been fine with the firing, but that's not what happened and we are not in a better position now.
I've said elsewhere I'd take Warnock, certainly until the end of the season.
They played differently but neither approach was successful in any way.
I’ve haven’t honestly noticed much difference in the way be played under both managers.
They gave Morison £1.5 million which no one expected us to spend to bring in a forward who is a step up from the sort of names we were being linked with and then sacked him a fortnight later. All I’m saying is that I saw more potential for improvement under Morison - perhaps I’d have been proved wrong, but we never got the chance to find out.
Oh come on you must have. Some of our passing moves under Morison from defence to attack were quality. Under Hudson we can’t string two passes together.
Didn’t look much difference to me , I actually thought it was mainly down to losing the left back.
Robinson is a good signing, I think he’s a good player but he’s not a centre forward. I don’t think too much would have changed because he’s not the player we needed. You could argue we needed him on the left or in behind, but we don’t have a centre forward. Even Burnley play Rodriguez or Barnes
Spot on. It could be seen what we were trying to achieve, even if we were inconsistent. Given the number of new players and the late signing of Robinson this should have improved. We have made no progress under Hudson and there was no clear game plan. The team selections also became more inconsistent.
I totally agree.
Had a small amount of faith it might have clicked under Morison or he at least would have found a way.
Under Hudson it was a joke.
I couldn’t believe the team at the start yesterday, where 2 of our better performers, Kipre and Robinson, were on the bench against the bottom team. Whoever comes in, needs to be brought in quickly, as there are only 2 weeks of the window left to try and improve the team.
at least with Morison you could see what the direction was supposed to be. what they were trying to implement.
yes it didn't come together as quickly as anyone hoped it would but I have no idea what Hudson was trying to achieve.
if they'd gone for a more proven manager after Morison then you could understand it, but the whole Hudson appointment has been bizarre from start to finish
Wtf was that about
Weren't they both recovering from illness, where Robinson sounded particularly bad as he lost a few KG of weight in a couple of days.
Your missing the point. Our fans are medical experts who know the ins and outs of the treatment room on a daily basis. If they think the guys on the bench are fit enough for 90 minutes, then they are.
That's a fair point
But failing to win yesterday meant he had to be sacked
Why? Are you suggesting that, if we'd not conceded in the last seconds that Hudson should have stayed?
He’s probably suggesting that the win would’ve taken us to 19th with a good platform to continue the ‘improvement’ as seen at the club. The fact we couldn’t put Wigan away and another glance at the league table no doubt focused a few minds - or one in particular.
Rubbish. There haven't been any improvements to the club. It has to be said that conceding a last minute equaliser is a shit reason for sacking a manager.
One conceded goal is the difference between improvement and no improvement? Crikey.
I would have given him another few games to get some wins , which is what we need
But his side blew it
That's exactly it
