Elvin Parsnip Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Windass should have been off at half time and possibly not started after his injury and playing Tuesday. Stoke got done by pace on the wings last match they lost so why not start Gassama or Musaba 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye and Musaba has been shocking in front of goal in several games this season. Rotherham at home springs to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nile Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Best natural striker sat on the bench until 93rd minute. should have been on for ugbo after 65 mins today 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck Rogers Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 We have a brand new manager in his first role and a load of misfit players ranging from old experienced pros to young exciting prospects. To be where we are after the first suicidal third of the season is still remarkable and every one of us would've laughed at the fact that we're just one point off survival with three games left back in November. I personally think Röhl got it wrong today and he'll mess up every now and again. But I still think he's got a surprise or two left up his sleeve. We're not done yet. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely you could see why he tried to leave the bigger lads on for as long as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeyswfc Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Big summer signing up front was Ashley Fletcher. At 1-1 we should have made those 90 minutes subs though. No idea why he waited until added time. Really bad timing of subs today. Like he forgot what time it was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SheffWed Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 (edited) The signing of Ashley Fletcher set the tone for the season, no goals in 2+ years. We will never know and it divides opinion but how many goals would Gregory have scored or set up? Yes, Gregory isn’t the answer but you have a player available, ready, we need to score goals somehow and we don’t use him. Whatever the reason I think Danny shot himself in the foot with Gregory. Just Gregory’s experience for the 10 minutes could have helped. Edited April 14 by SheffWed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodyOwl Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Paterson should have come on at half time and for me should have gone up top with Smith like he did against Norwich. He made a huge impact against Norwich and was the main reason why we got a draw. Yesterday though Paterson came on and was non-existent (I think he went in to CM?). I also think Marvin had a terrible game. We had nothing going down that side in the first half except hopeful balls which never came off. I also don't understand how there are all those experienced professional staff in the dugout and not one of them would have told Danny to make a sub at 75 minutes. Wouldn't Danny appreciate it if just one of them stood up and said Danny this aint working get some subs on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to make changes earlier, change formation and apply pressure. What makes this so much worse is Stoke was truly shocking, a absolute pile of sh*e, they was there for the taking and we waited, Stoke wanted a point, happy to sit back and ride it out. @DSandersonOWL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bringing him on if Smith stays on does though mean more battering ram tactics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are still in the mix so it was not a 'mwg' As another poster has just written, try to keep it simple, take it one game at a time Pity it was not a six-pointer then a draw would have given us 3 points 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
