danblakemore 954 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 (edited) I cant think of any other side we've had since 2000 that is this poor. Especially when you think of some.of the transfer fees. Edited December 15, 2020 by danblakemore 2 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
matt68owls 1,446 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 this is the worst side we have had since the mid 70s, totally clueless, no passion, no threat and some pisspoor managers 4 Link to post Share on other sites

@owlstalk 51,126 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 But it was doing much much much MUCH better before Pulis arrived 1 2 Owlstalk Shop Link to post Share on other sites
TheGaffer 729 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 It's reaching Turner and Irvine levels easily. Reminds me more of the Turner era where we had the odd moment of quality or player who is better than the rest. However the sum of the parts is equal to that. We are going down. No doubt about it now. Just hope we plan for it January Link to post Share on other sites
NeonLeon 3,199 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Worse than 2009. And to quote Micky Gray it was the most unprofessional side he’d ever seen. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
meggoisgod 2,451 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Worst ever 1 Link to post Share on other sites
WayneTheOwl 3,072 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 38 years I have been watching us and I’ve seen some of our reserve teams be better. This IS the worst squad of footballers I have ever see . Link to post Share on other sites

WBridgfordowl 999 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Mid 70s was absolutely awful. The football was, give or take, a similar shocking standard, but this is more worrying and depressing somehow. Even as we were hovering on the precipice of Div 4, it didn’t feel as bad as this 3 Link to post Share on other sites

RedSoxOwl 256 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Absolutely. At least when we've been crap before there was a JJ or Antonio to come up with a bit of magic. This team has nothing. I genuinely hate watching them. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Django 2,291 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 (edited) Those other sides were sheeite . But in the sea of shiteness they did treat us to the odd goal and occasional win Edited December 15, 2020 by Django Link to post Share on other sites
matthefish2002 13,588 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 The really poor sides we have had before in the last 20 years at least had the excuse of suffering from the burden of the £20m plus debt. £350m has been spent to get this poor. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Kevan 1,189 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 When you consider how much money has been spent and look at how this team is performing, it makes even the mid 1970s side look reasonable. The vast majority of these players have a first touch like an elephant. There is just no ball control and no consistent passing ability, whatsoever. Very very poor. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
