There are a lot of factors to consider and of course everyone is entitled to their own opinion but I disagree with claiming what should or shouldn't have been done by those not in NTs position...

"I can do better, I've watched loads of matches on TV, AND played loads of games on t'computer" Delusional... I take it you haven't revisited the OMDT?... Thompson got it wrong and was called out for it. I'm a bit sick of fan bashing tbh... Again..if you honestly think that NT is a coaching guru to the extent that you feel too inferior to challenge one of the biggest clangers of the season then stay out of it rather than call us fans thickos.

owler66 Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 When Wilkinson was in charge he'd pick the team Monday train all week on our plans never once worrying about the opposition, friggin modern coaching complicate a very simple game 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you're right It's the fans fault The ones suggesting the tactics were off in a game we lost (against BIRMINGHAM) are to blame 1 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@owlstalk Posted February 21, 2021 Author Share Posted February 21, 2021 When Jos selected that side with NO strikers - were the fans wrong to suggest that was crackers? How about when Forestieri was played as a left wing back? Where fans wrong then too when they disagreed with those tactics? Did the managers know stuff we didn't to justfy those selections?

That's kind of what I was getting at. I'm not saying managers are infallable, just the reasons for decisions might not be known or so obvious...

So fans were wrong to criticise Monk, Jos and Pulis for their lineups/style/strategy And Jos was right to name a side with no strikers in it? And it was right that Forestieri was played at left back?

Outside of don't question the management because you're a stupid wednesdayite. I understand that you haunt Matchday hoping that some football knowledge might rub off on you but it's poor form to bite the hand that feeds you.
