Popular Post RUMBELOWS91 11,065 Posted February 20 Popular Post Share Posted February 20 Awful substitutions midweek- completely blew our chances Poor starting 11 today- why mess with the formation now? Rhodes should have played today over midweek. Should have been in Shaw's ear at half time to make sure he didnt repeat wajt he did earlier in the season. Looking at that tackle, he clearly didnt make the point. Poor management. Absolutely shocking, and has shown why he's not the man for the task. 21 Link to post Share on other sites
yeadonowl 1,827 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Complete shambles today The blame lies directly at the managers door Awful team selection, awful tactics and reactive to every situation in the match Showed today why he isn’t management material and why we need a proper appointment as soon as possible 9 Link to post Share on other sites
Popular Post SallyCinnamon 26,993 Posted February 20 Popular Post Share Posted February 20 It’s almost as if a first team manager with no inexperience of being a first team manager is making mistakes. He’s not asked for the gig. Thompson not to blame. 21 1 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites

The blame lies COMPLETELY at the chairman’s door. Thompson has had the job thrust on him. He has no experience managing a club before. And people expect him to not make mistakes? He shouldn’t be manager in the first place. 11 4 Link to post Share on other sites

September65 254 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 He shouldn't be in the role in the first place. Chansiri sacks Pulis and has no idea about a replacement. Then misses McCarthy and ignores Cook. Selection and substitutions at Stoke and today baffling. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Inspector Lestrade 23,560 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 He choose the line up, no one seeing that lineup expected us to win, love to know his thought process, dreadful decisions. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

These are still simple decisions someone with decades of coaching experience should be able to make I would agree if he asked for the job and is employed as manager. He’s not asked for the job. It’s been thrusted on him at one of the most precarious points in our history. No blame for me. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

sMacLean 1,780 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 He should concede the role tonight. Force Chansiri into doing something. Link to post Share on other sites

He’s not asked for the gig. Thompson not to blame. Well, he is to blame. But to be fair, some people just aren't management material. Chansiri really should have made a permanent appointment and let Thompson revert to his normal role. Link to post Share on other sites

Forget whether he’s got the manager title or not, these are avoidable decisions regardless of that Those issues don’t stop you being able to make the right subs But I blame the players too Edited February 20 by FreshOwl Link to post Share on other sites
B&WOwl 155 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Think he must have got it bad, WHAT ABOUT THE FANS WHO BUY THE OVERPRICED MERCHANDISE? THE FANS WHO WATCH EVERY GAME? THE FAN WHO MAKE THIS CLUB AS RELEVANT AS IT IS TODAY? Link to post Share on other sites

ScrappyOwl 371 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 For those who said no thanks to us appointing an experienced championship manager just look what McCarthy is doing at Cardiff. You need experience to get out of the complete and utter mess we are in and Thompson has proved he isn’t up to it with crap decisions made this week I’m afraid we have League one written all over us . Thanks Chansiri 1 Link to post Share on other sites
NeonLeon 3,292 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 He’s doing exactly what Bullen started to do before Monk came in. When coaches step in to be caretakers there always seems to be a lack of conviction in actions to change a game. It’s probably because deep down they know the results won’t affect their long term career in 90% of cases. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Whether they started the right players, made the right decisions and subs. Difference with Thompson is he’s doing a job he didn’t want in the first place. I’m not going to blame him for anything. I actually feel quite sorry for him. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
