Hard to say. We have been mismanaged this season so we are beneath our true league position. The same squad (give or take a few injured players) got to a playoff final. It's just churlish to say the whole squad is cr4p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frazzlebeak Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I’ll just be churlish then. But I do agree on the mismanagement. On all fronts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a fan, i don't come on here to slate the team when things are going well overall. But you seem a bit of a wind up merchant so I guess the truth won't be of interest. People on here slating players for getting well beaten by a top 4 premier league team is unreal. Chelsea are now a major team in europe we are lower middle championship. The root cause is not individuals its a 450-550 million pound squad v a 40-45 million pound squad. Expectations on here are delusional . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed - and CHO's price tag is double that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think people are highlighting the Chelsea game but let's be honest, Boyd is an extremely limited footballer. He lacks strength, pace, trickery and an ability to consistently put balls in the right areas. Back in the day I imagine he was much more dynamic but he is exactly what we do not want moving forward.

One thing I'm more certain about is this...if he gets a transfer wrong or the tactics... he'll be honest.. which will be a refreshing change from riddles and side talk and silly excuses.

And the fact we were playing Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. None of our players would get anywhere near their squad. Arguably our best defender (Hector) can’t even get into their U23s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to see the back of the boyds & Jones's etc though, I said it wouldn't work signing old pros who'd been promoted and deemed surplus to requirements, what motivation would they have to win promotion again??, just here for another pay day, that's all. How is this Bruce’s fault? He was in Barbados. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mus Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 I think he knows what he's supposed to do but is miles too slow, even for our league. Shame we didn't get him when he was younger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
