matt68owls Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I wondered how long before the Rhodes haters came out, nothing to do with the service he didn't receive again. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGaffer Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Rhodes in no way was to blame for any of that performance. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable Jeff I'm always reminded of what could have been when I think of Rhodes. I believe we were linked with a move for Ross McCormack at the time. Just goes to show the money would have been wasted, even if Rhodes hadn't signed. I still think Rhodes is going to get goals for us in this new team. Maybe off the bench though now. The new Workate will get him chances. Tough ask against Brentford though tonight, after the game had already slipped away. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ross_McCormack?wprov=sfla1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not bad work if you can get it Think this applies to every time he starts / plays / comes on , whatever this bloke had it disappeared 5 years ago , total waste of a time , just ignore him till it’s time to leave 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is hating Rhodes a thing? I just feel really sorry for him. He used to be good and he's clearly is a nice guy but he's not a footballer any more. It's sad. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddy Repperton Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Rhodes had the same service/ chances that Marriott had - none! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does look like a slow motion replay of himself though. The game had already slipped away when he entered the game. Windass didn't look fit. Must have been carrying a knock. Rhodes should have started in his pace. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SallyCinnamon Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Typical thread. Rhodes gets a 15 minute cameo and the knives are out because he didn’t score. Perhaps if we playing a bit more football in their final third, Rhodes would see more involvement? Our tactic when he came on was hoof it up for Flint and Paterson to flick on. And it was bread and butter stuff for Brentford’s centre halves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SallyCinnamon Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Also is anyone going to mention that Windass and Marriott were completely anonymous for their time on the pitch? Nope don’t see their thread. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The embodiment of -12 points. Transfer embargoes. Creative accounting Horror stories. A reminder of when we signed him, after we'd signed Fletcher and Winnall. A reminder of that feeling when you first heard he'd signed.... WTF?!? Not his fault though was it really? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PortlandOwl Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I'm sure people don't actually "hate" Rhodes. Simple fact is, it's just not worked out for him at Wednesday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otley Owl Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I get that abuse of him is out of line. But in his time here, name the number of times you have seen him play and genuinely rated him above a 5/6! He was very poor tonight, again. For whatever reason, and I suspect we'll never really know why, he has been a terrible signing. Gutted, as like many, I just wanted him to succeed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very disjointed performance around, but we stopped Brentford from taking us apart and we were able to create chances, because there was at least Workate. However the quality of the crossing / final ball wasn't there. Brentford are a good team. Have been better than us for several years now. Another reminder of how football has changed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hack-Abusi Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 A completely absurd decision to make by the sounds of it ..and not for the first time Bringing on Rhodes like that is symptomatic of of Monks tenure here and will no doubt go some way to his justification of dropping Rhodes for god knows how long. Baffling at times ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickyTrev Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Jordan Rhodes thrives on decent service and in fairness given our lack of creativity tonight we could have had Harry Kane up front and it wouldn’t have made much difference. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
