Doesn’t seem to have a clue. Yes, appalled. I honestly think he is making it worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

torryowl Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 another gripe .....we lose a centre back we have centre back on the bench so why not bring him on instead of totally rejigging by putting the left back to right back the the right back to left centre back and bringing on someone who isnt an out and out left back.......feck me whats the point of dunkley on the bench if he aint going to use him ? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 You just know it don't you DC will blame it on yet another manager and more than likely reward the players who have thrown another poor bloke under the bus with fresh new contracts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beauchief Owl Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Can't blame Moore for the state we're in whether we get relegated, as seems likely, or not. True he acted quickly with Pulis, who to be fair was unbelievably bad, but usually he backs his managers and I think he will do so with Moore.

4evaowl Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 DM will have to do something to convince DC that he is the right man in the games remaining as the manager here over the summer has the hardest job in football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 We will go down this season, being in league one is an embarrassment. I won’t blame Moore for that though. The blame lies with the clown of an owner and those pathetic players. It wouldn’t surprise me if Chansiri pins the blame on Moore though and sacks or doesn’t renew his contract.

Mid Wicket Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I think Moore will still be here next season, just can't see us bringing in the players needed for a promotion push. More like fighting to avoid a double relegation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athelwulf Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I take the view that we're down already, and it doesn't matter if we lose every game between now and the end of the season. Moore, privately, probably takes the same view. So he's using what games we have left to try different things with a view to next season. But he's flogging a dead horse if he's trying to play it out with our back line. We all know that our defenders can't play the way he wants to -play, well at least not at this level. We had a basinful of that under Jos. Like Torry rightly says, Lees ain't Der Kaiser. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just watch the matches on telly with this 'play from the back'. How many do it well? Man City? yep - carry on............ yes I remember jos trying it too. We need a bloody centre forward who can hold up the play, AND with a partner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watto Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 1 hour ago, Jim said: Contrast that with Monk and Pulis slagging the players off in public after every defeat. I know things are bad at the moment but in all honesty which approach stands a better chance of achieving results? I know which approach I’d prefer if I was a player. It’s the same in any workplace. Get criticised and ridiculed regularly and you’re going to get little in return and sod all respect. I don't remember Monk ever criticising the players in public Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 3 hours ago, LondonOwl313 said: I honestly wonder how he decides what his best team is. I mean he’s been in the job 6 days.. so what does he do on Monday, sit down with the coaches and other players and asks them what their best positions are, who’s in form etc. He can’t have seen enough in training to make many decisions yet. But practically all of the fans are calling for Reach left, Harris right and Rhodes and/or Windass up front just on the back of having watched us all season and seeing what’s sometimes worked We’re a poor side but we don’t get the best out of it either which means relegation is inevitable. His selections have been a bit bizarre so far tbh.. Reach on the right, Windass out wide, not bringing strikers on until too late against Rotherham when we were chasing the game and simply had to win. Then today subbing Bannan.. it’s all too left field and no surprise we lost both games. If he needs time to try things out and get used to it then that’s understandable but we don’t have time and other people at the club need to tell him something doesn’t work before we waste game time trying it If he’s watched vids of our great run under Thompson, and our dreadful end under Thompson, he doesn’t pick the sides he’s picked so far. Worrying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question : Why will it not be Moore's fault , more than it was Monk's , Pulis or Thompson's ........ the fault lay's with Chansiri and the hopeless squad he has helped assemble but please don't assume that Moore will be any better than the others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WBridgfordowl Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 If DM loses the majority of the remaining games, his confidence will surely take a knock too. He’s hardly going to start the next season brimming with enthusiasm. he made his bed when taking the job so I’ve little sympathy for him, but I just can’t see what he was thinking. He’s probably convinced DC that he could keep us up and at the same time, DC probably promised his full support Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
