striker Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Agree, he cant do much with this lot this season. But, he's got to be strong with Chansiri and tell him he doesnt want these players next season. For the love of God, dont go extending anymore contracts like Reach etc. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lies that "they played well" or "the boys worked hard", or "we saw a lot of positives" its not washing anymore. This isnt a dig at Darren Moore, he seems like a really good guy. I actually feel sorry that he has walked into this. It would but he’s got no choice Chansiri would go bezerk - he’s been brought in to save a sinking ship with no lifeboats. He’s got to publicly back them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughdowd Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 I just hope Moore is in charge of recruiting players for league 1 ....cos paxo has been a disaster up to now and we are going to need proper hard working quality players not recommendations from paxos mates 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got impression as well he was a bit dodgy. Rest of season might be hard going now with new manager and lot of players knowing they wont be here next season and side 99% already relegated. He made 5 saves. There have only been 2 games this season where we've forced an opposition keeper to make more (Millwall at home = 7, Wycombe at home = 6). Again, we weren't all over them, but we've been so poor this season that even a modest performance is an improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His appalling decisions last night were what counted against us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is nobody knows where the goal is. Could've been there until Easter and still wouldn't have scored ourselves. Not really his fault Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Andy W Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 14 hours ago, Dooogs said: I don't have a problem after one game with him telling the cameras that. If he's telling the players in the dressing room that this standard is acceptable, then we have a problem. Correct..whats said in public and private are (hopefully) different things. Moore's been here 5 minutes and can't be blamed for last night. The problem in that respect is the players..we basically have a L1 (or worse) standard of players here trying to stay in a league they aren't fit for. We've had poor players before (all clubs do) but to have so many at one time is a massive issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember the so called messiah Megson telling it how it is and giving what the fans wanted took us from mid table to a relegation scrap! Unless you can get new players in its only going to make things worse. A public dressing down has never done any good in any profession 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernOwl Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Some absolutely cringeworthy posts on this thread. Anyone criticising Moore after one game should be embarrassed at themselves. He's soon going to wish he stayed at Doncaster if he doesn't already. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Of The Roasters Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Just now, NorthernOwl said: Some absolutely cringeworthy posts on this thread. Anyone criticising Moore after one game should be embarrassed at themselves. It's incredible, isn't it? He's been here 72 hours and was pitched into his first game even quicker, and yet apparently (according to some) he had the wrong team selection, the wrong formation, the wrong tactics and - now - the wrong post-match comments. If we can learn anything from Rotherham, it's that continuity works. They may not be a particularly good side but they make the best of it - their players know the manager, the system, and their role. At least part of our current malaise is that lack of continuity. What is it - 6 full time managers plus caretakers in as many seasons? If I'm honest, I'm not 100% convinced by Darren Moore (for the record I'm gutted we didn't go for Paul Cook) but he's here, he's a respected coach, he's got managerial experience and he likes to play decent football. Let's actually give him a decent amount of time to make his mark on the squad rather than getting on his back every time results go against us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CourteenerOwl Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 I am concerned already with DM and it's been 90 minutes. Starts with one up front at home to Rotherham in the process moving Windass out wide and effectively making him void. (After scoring 2 previous game and being a real menace) The tactics were not working and whilst we had chances Rotherham looked the better team. He waited too long to change anything. Takes Bannan off. The only player in our whole team with any vision. Takes him off? Jury out already here I am afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owls Loyal Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Yes, I agree 100% with Roy of the Roasters. I really wanted Paul Cook as our manager. Three promotions with different clubs says a lot in my view. But Darren Moore is here now and hopefully he will be a quick learner. Take Penney and Reach out of the side and do not rely on Paterson as our lone striker up front wouuld be my learnings from last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBF if a player has a chance to score but shoots off target it was still a chance, he just didn't take his chance correctly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
