Mangers just ain’t given any time these days. We aren’t playing well. We’re not getting results. We don’t even look like we have the foundation of knowing what the first choice team is. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see any progress made, I don’t see teams being taken apart when we have a lead…any success seems very accidental, unintentional and unplanned…but let’s wait and see what DM has to say this week after the game. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrie’s Left Peg Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 We’re mid table and we’ve only lost 2 games. It’s not what anyone wanted but it’s not Armageddon either. Time for cool heads. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like he’s listened to other managers talk and thinks he needs to talk like that too in order to sound more intelligent. Don’t know about rehearsing, but I think there’s a lot of truth in the last sentence. He sounds unintelligent because he is. It also shows in how he constructs sentences and speaks. You don’t have to be intelligent to be a football manager, but as a minimum you need tactical awareness and/or intelligence (preferably both). He makes it appear that he has neither. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think he’s got much of a clue tactically, but is there not an attacking coach and a defensive coach in the first team set up? Just how “professional” are we as a club coaching team? It all seems a bit Mickey Mouse to me, like the players are trying to play to a game plan that they don’t fully understand how to implement on the pitch. All these training videos we see are all well and good but is the coaching effective in terms of getting points? Game plan, To be honest get the ball forward asap, You ain't gonna concede if the ball is in the opponents half Playing out from the back..leave it to Man City.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 23 minutes ago, RichieB said: No, I rate Monk and Moore very similar, neither are anything special at all, and the biggest problem at this club has always been DC, and to me it doesn't matter who the manager is we won't succeed while he's here. You wanted Monk out believing we would improve yet we've got worse, proving that he was never the problem you thought he was, I on the other hand don't care who the manager is while DC is here, and it seems you've reached that thought process too now. We may aswell keep Moore. As I said in an earlier post in this thread, we let Moore go then it’s down to DC to make another appointment which is pointless in the grand scheme of things which you obviously agree with? Would Monk have done the job that was required had he been left to do so. We’ll never know. The fact no other club has took a punt on him since he left here suggests there is doubt elsewhere in the game that he would have. If Moore got the push here, I think he would get another League 1 job easily and of course that’s the level we’re now at. I’m not that blind that I can’t see the merits in some of the opinions flying around on here tonight but it is a brand new squad and there are undoubted teething problems which was always possible and in all fairness probable. I think Bannan’s likely absence on Tuesday might be a kick start forward as I think Wing will be given more responsibility and Adeniran is looking an unbelievable acquisition and let’s face it we don’t get him without Moore. Getting more players closer to Gregory is crucial in moving forward so a tweak in formation is required but I do think Moore will sort it out. If he doesn’t then I look forward the ‘I Told You So’s’ coming out in force Something in all fairness I never did with regards to Monk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pastor Kidneys Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 It's clear as day that Moore hasn't a clue what to do with Bannan. Today he was often further forward than Berahino ... next game he'll be back behind the back 4. I've no idea what system he's trying to get the players to play. We look about as threatening as Larry Grayson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very obvious, I'm struggling to see why some defend him...give him a chance etc etc. They are his players, his tactics and has had plenty of games. (the gelling bolox) I could understand if there was signs of better things to come; there isn’t. The tip tapping shyte from the back is foooking nuts...he ain't no Pep or even CC..and we do not have the players, why can't he see it? Tactical subs are none existent. The goalie error today gives reason for excuses and a fair point. But foookin ell, we ended up with exactly what we deserved. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
