Blatter Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 When your team is down the wrong end of the league you have to fight your way out of it using the players you have. We’re in a tight spot at the moment with an unheard of number of games coming up in rapid succession. Continuing to glean 1.1 points per game between now and the next transfer window would make us certs for relegation to Div 1. What sort of player would be available to us in January then? We’ve been in deep trouble after a period of decline a few times in my memory. Each time the manager that turned us around made the team defensively strong, hard running and hard to break down. Think Megson, Charlton , Catterick. Nobody cared about the tactics and style of play as they stopped the rot. It was done by physically strong players playing a no nonsense direct style of football. Technically gifted players were a rarity until a few were introduced as we achieved safety. Forget the talk of boring football and football snobbery, rubbishing the long ball game etc. We need to win matches first and foremost. This time next season we need to be in or around the top six no matter how we get there. Only then will better players be attracted to Hillsborough again. Pulis is the sort of manager to stop the rot and should be supported. If change is needed once things are stabilised then so be it. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People who don’t appreciate the beautiful game played on the floor are akin to people who don’t like theatre or Opera. Uneducated reprobates who probably enjoy cold baked beans straight out of the tin. I'd love see CR7 playing for Wednesday, and us playing like Brazil, but there's 0.001% chance of that happening under any manager we could have appointed. Now as for Andy Carroll, with his injury track record... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a habit though isn’t it plus there’s the fear you’ll miss something phenomenal. Same reason I never leave before the end regardless of the score. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonofbert2 Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 You go to the match for entertainment based on who you are with, where you go, what happens etc. Fuckinghell it’s not Cinderella at The Crucible.

cartman Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 I've been going since 86.... These moaning that it won't be as entertaining as what they are used to must have only turned up for the Atkinson and Carlos seasons and being in a lapdancing club for the rest....
