Owls Loyal Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Not sure about this as it seems to all rest on the match versus QPR. I just have not seen the leadership, authority and and tactical awareness needed from Lee Bullen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just have not seen the leadership, authority and and tactical awareness needed from Lee Bullen. I did against Barnsley when they were getting on top in Midfield and he brought on Luongo and Pelupessy to support Hutchinson. It was a brave call, but the correct one as it turned out. I said in another thread that the worrying thing about Wednesday is that we rarely perform for ninety minutes. If the opposition target Bannan, he can't do anything about it and we get overrun in midfield because Lee and Hutchinson are left exposed as Bannan retreats further and further to receive the ball off Westwood or next to centre halves. If Bannan is allowed to dictate he is one of the best midfielders in the Championship. If he isn't he might as well not play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toppOwl Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 First everyone's clamouring for a man who knows the club inside out then complains they are too familiar with the players!!! Is Bullen the right man, we don't know. Would Bruce or another manager have had a better start, we don't know (for the record I liked the appointment of Bruce but we did draw too many games and totally capitulated v Leeds). Its been a reasonable start, better than previous years, some of the perfomances have been below par but on three occasion garnered results, people are accusing him of not knowing his best team, will any manager after 5 games with late recruits added to the squad. He changed tactics and got a result v Luton (that was the players decision according to one poster on here ) it seems as if he won't be accepted by some no matter what happens. Personally I have my doubts but think the bloke needs at least 10 games, then again I'm not that desperate to get to the Prem as some are so I may be more forgiving.

Owls Loyal Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I do worry that Irvine always gave the forthcoming opposition an immense build up. Is Lee Bullen doing similar if not to the same degree? I thought this knocked on to the way the team p[layed at Millwall which was wait for something to happen rather than make it happen. And of course something did happen .....................Millwall scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taximark Posted August 31, 2019 Author Share Posted August 31, 2019 Needs to happen this week now. Chansiri - what the fuckare you pisssing about for how anyone thought Bullen could have stepped up into Bruces shoes is mystifying. We might as well called Jos back for Germany ffs!

McRightSide Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 regardless of how this ends I think it’s clear Bullen isn’t the man. Yet another embarrassment of a performance against average opposition. Picking Fox and Palmer as our full backs...honestly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waddlesdiamondlights Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 He's had a go at it and it hasn't worked out. If we want to get in the top 6 we need a manager now move LB back to his coaching role and let's push on. We can't afford to drop too many points before DC acts. We have a 2 week break now to get somebody in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we beat QPR on Saturday, as we should, does 12 points out of 18 and say 4th in the table not earn him time? Are you getting any closer to making up your mind? More importantly, is Chansiri? I really, really hope so, as the current 'wait and see' approach is in serious danger of derailing a potentially promising season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I posted elsewhere, his flip-flop away from a 433 that had succeeded to that hopeless 442 yesterday showed huge weakness. And his mid-match management was a train-wreck.

hodgybysea Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 The worrying thing about yesterday was within 5 minutes of the second half most of the folks around us had spotted they had stuck an extra man in midfield and we were getting over run. With only one in the front of the defence any good at tackling and Bazza on a yellow we never got near their midfield.If we could spot the problem what the hell was the staff thinking?. I was willing to let Bully have a go and look at it at this point of the break,I think we have our answer.40 games to go ,not in a bad position ,a cup game for a new man to get a good look at his team,Time to act Mr Chairman.

It seems the penny's dropping for more and more with each passing game. Allowing a caretaker manager without a property coaching team to oversee the first part of the season could have a catastrophic impact on our prospects in the final reckoning. We simply can't allow any more matches to pass us by without us giving the best possible account of ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be disappointed, but to be honest I'll be amazed if the situation has changed. Chansiri has had fifty days to address this situation. The fact that he's been happy to let it continue for as long as it has suggests he's not feeling the same sense of urgency that we are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
