Well it certainly hasn't improved IMO. In fact Westwood has got worse at a time when keepers are supposed to be at their prime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's survived several management culls and if he isn't influencing tactics, what is he doing there? Got to go IMO. with this manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may be good in their field but it doesn't mean they can make the step up to first team coaching. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some keepers play on till late 30's even forties. David Seaman, one of my former pupils, was in his early forties when he retired from top level football. I think keepers are supposed to mature and be best in their early thirties, but Westwood is, as you suggest in his mid thirties. His form has been questionable over a few seasons, however, which doesn't reflect well on the coaching.

Who's played the most minutes since the restart, Pelupessy or Hunt? Hunt barley featured before lock down, players went post lock down, he was promoted simply because of numbers Joey for your second question, what`s your point? As I`ll keep repeating,my point stands As I`ll keep repeating, you keep on arguing black is white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You see I just don’t understand this opinion of Westwood’s form over the last few years , year maybe yes , maybe it’s because he set such high standards in our better seasons that any error he makes is magnified . Until today I thought Wildsmith was doing ok , hopefully it’s a one off . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most managers have an entourage of coaching staff they take with them. Some might even turn a job down without their trusted mates. Perhaps they know its their support staff that makes them a good manager/front man. I heard that Allardyce has his own Coach (one with wheels) for his coaching staff. Wish it was on our car park.

Lawrie Madden Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Watching it back Borner for the 2nd goal was awful, pointing at Mitrovich instead of tracking him and putting a nothing attempted block instead He sold Lees down the river good and proper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was 5-10 yards back and could see mitrovic had a few yards on borner when they broke through the middle, he then has to decide either step up and try to play offside or go with the runner mitrovic. He did neither he just kind of ambled along in no mans land. The kind of indecision you would expect from a novice defender not someone who has played multiple years in the championship.

This season he was poor before Christmas and hasn't played since. Clearly under Jos he had no future here and quite frankly maybe his judgement was better than ours. Westwood is on a big wage and has contributed little recently. The drop off in his form has been very disappointing. It's a pity he got a two-year contract last summer.
