Cheap and classless. we too had our captain missing, and our midfield strongman, and our talisman, plus others, didnt they bring in a foreign owner who was going to be game changing? Look how that`s turned out. Did Carlos make excuses no, He told it straight, acted with Class. Praised United, said they, deserved it, and accepted responsibility. Today's press conference, shows he cares, If I was in the squad for tomorrow, I would be damn certain, I owed the fans a performance, I owed the manager a performance, and I owed myself a performance. Time will tell, but some times you learn more and find more strength from a kicking than another win. The players now need, to fight back. I want to see a performance with skill and class, mixed with commitment.Which our squad does possess. Unlike our neighbours, commitment alone wont get them in the top six, no matter now deluded Wilder is, every dog has its day and they have had theirs. Understandably they are milking it , but I wouldn't swoop it for the last six years, nor do I see them have a brighter future than us. Lets get behind the boys tomorrow night 100% , We are asking the player to show some bottle, time for us to show some too and stick together WAWAW Does anybody seriously think united will finish above us ? Yes. we are stale, predictable, slow and lack in passion / direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The grunters will find that out soon enough What is keeping Cardiff going then? I looked at their team, their squad and no way would I expect them to be up there. We know what it is though, don't we? It's old Colin doing what he's always done, extracting every last ounce of effort out of a very mediocre bunch. Wilder is doing the same. Maybe they will be found out. I suspect it will be too much for them to expect a promotion challenge this season but I don't see a dramatic decline on the horizon for them just yet. As for Carlos, great show now turn it into a string of solid results - with end product this time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away days at Chelsea etc. They have a system, game plan, a team that plays as a unit and a belief in what they are doing. Organised, cohesive and a strategy. Cardiff the same under Colin - he'll probably take them up. Basically everything we don't - hence the respective league positions. Yesterday's PC showed a man panicking and highlighted how all over the place we really are with the current management. We are throwing away the opportunity provided by DC with CC in change. Lose to Leeds and that really is it for me. Edited September 27, 2017 by Earlsfieldowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The product you laud over is 4 miles down the road and cheaper to get in and watch them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the Bully Boy who every body thinks is a nice guy but go's homes and takes it out of his wife and kids when some thing upsets him, I've seen lots of these types in my job over the years. Well that is just a dreadful post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good grief, one of the daftest posts I have read in ages - the fact is that both United and Cardiff are doing better than us with less resources. In light of this, we should be doing much better with what have in relation to them - that was my point. Jeez - I didnt think I needed to spell out.

I might be wrong but league position is not decided after 9 games?? At this moment in time they are, every team can go on a good run, but can they maintain it all season. If your so confident lump your money on Cardiff and Pigs for promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardiff are a decent shout as they have manager who knows how to get teams promoted. Pigs unknown - but so we're Huddersfield last season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add tactical nous, players that complement each other and a willingness to attack teams and I think they'll be quite safe. If they keep the momentum up exceed expectations.

S1Owl Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 (edited) Who would people seriously want if cc were to get sack. The continental style coaching setup DC has created seems long term so the likes of megson, pardew, allerdyce etc would be a step backwards. Gullit or Rijkaard maybe I dunno.
