We tried two formations (4-4-2 and 4-3-3), tried out few tactical ideas and gave some much needed game time to certain players. All in all I'm not unhappy with what I've seen. Would just hope that people will remember how in pre-season it is not about winning, but getting where we need to be at Aug 03. Before one of worst seasons in this club's history we won all our pre-season games. I think that you have to have some knowledge about football to come to that conclusion...I'll let everyone else decide which posters in this thread have any Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Yeah it would have been nice if the all the players went over to the fans, not just 1 or 2. More concerning though was a minority of idiotic “fans” behaving like absolute scum bags before and after the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder who showed it to the guy from the Mirror Maybe he just guessed using out of work managers? It fits in with what Nixon says as well. Could be false but their is some truth in it.

We've had a list on here since Bruce went...maybe he got it from here...even I could have come up with that list whether any of them have even spoken to DC is just speculation on Nixon's part. One thing for sure is that he got fuckall from DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people like it then I'm ok with that. The way I saw it is , the team were poor , fans were underwhelmed so just to acknowledge the efforts they had made to get there would have been ok . I’m sure it was the performance that “ upset “ fans pre season friendly or not . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not saying all information correct but he has been reliable in this area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dorian gray Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 4 hours ago, Quist said: I know a journalist who told me very similar information. Nixon has indicated it is a domestic list in his reports (and with our manager he has been on money last 3 times). The list has certain look of being about right. Megson links to club, Coleman was Sunderland manager and all things Sunderland are often linked to club, Stendel I think agents in a round about way were connected to some involved in our club, Others are I suppose on every short list in Championship. Betting activity around them has shown nibbles which suggests they were spoken to. Pulis connection just bits and pieces read in news reports so less certain about that. It could have moved on but think that was how it was. If we need to make impact this season need to continue building in same method any move to radically different approach could not be done before season starts and effectively writes the season off so in some ways can see why approach adopted. Think Stendel gets in because uses high pressing high energy style we were (hopefully are) going to use this season. Therefore is you use common sense some of more exotic names who adopt different approach are non starter if you want fighting chance this year. Personally thought at last we were going right way all teams who went up last year used high energy approach and adopted forms of high pressing tactics. Think its way to go. I agree with you on the tactics, not sure about the top half of the post though, I'd like to think dc is, but then i'm not sure on that either.
