Mr Farrell Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Yet these players are the highest paid in our history. Lees, Westwood, Rhodes etc are taking home millions. Disgrace DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animis Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Our composure and general quality has fallen off a cliff since 2017. We can barely string three passes together in the opposite's half - no creatively whatsoever. It looks like we'll need to keep a clean sheet and rely on a rare goal from open play; set piece or penalty to win the games we'll need to stay up. It's grim and thank god we don't have to go and witness it personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it’s to do with him . He’s ran the show all along . He’s sanctioned these dire players , he sanctioned the signing of crocks like abdi . He’s jumped into bed with morons like stuffing face , jos etc etc . He still hasn’t employed decent football men to run the club 5 years on . It’s so let down to him . we have assembled this crap squad because it’s all we can afford / attract because the utter ******** up that chansiri has made of running the club 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if we get a 0-0 away at Norwich next Saturday, I , for one, will be more than happy, however dull the game is 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who hired the recruitment team? We can’t keep blaming managers, players, physios, recruitment teams etc. At the end of the day chansiri is responsible for running the club. He should put the foundations in place in order that we can be successful. He hasn’t put any foundations in place other than a dodgey advisor 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hoppy Hopper Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 For me the 03/04 year in League One was worse. At least now we have a game plan. If we get a forward with some pace in January we might have a shout. I notice Gary Taylor-Fletcher has been mentioned a bit recently. I think people forget he had a one month loan and played four games; at the time he was neither here or there. I think if we sign his modern equivalent now he’d be a regular starter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Len Ashurst era is always my calibration point as well. Maybe that's why Wednesday fans are capable of putting up with the dross we are served up season after season, we're inured to it??

Your definition of game plan must be much looser than mine It looks like the game plan is punt it upfield, and hope someone might be there!

I think the plan is to organise well at the back and look for chances on the counter and from long throws. It is searching for crumbs, but I don’t see that we’ve got the squad to do much else. The 03/04 side reminded me of games in the park as a kid where everyone just played where they wanted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've just got two points from two fixtures which, bearing in mind what we have on the pitch, should have yielded no points. We're not going to climb the table playing against the likes of Swansea and Stoke. If we're playing like this against the weaker teams when we've got pace up front, then we're doomed. But I don't think that will happen. Agree. Strange that the mood is completely different on here than it was after Swansea match which produced an identical result. There seemed to be an air of cautious optimism on Wednesday that’s been replaced by total doom and gloom. In the unlikely event of us thrashing Reading I guess we’ll all be optimistic again.

All had more possession, more shots, more shots on target than SWFC. I refuse to accept any of them have a better squad than us. You don’t have to play negative, safety first formations and rely on set pieces to score to compete in this league and get results. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
