Quite a shift from Wigan away it has to be said

Let’s be honest, the Wigan performance was largely torrid but understandably met with relief and over the top celebrations from players and fans alike.

Results and performances like today shouldn’t be that much of a surprise to anyone with this unbalanced and weak squad assembled

That Wigan game was the worse game of football in the history of football.

It was fucking braindead taking Cogley off. He's been our best player lately

Both were in the team that was pipped by Derby last season.

Sheehan is the same player he always was, and will never be physically strong.

On this showing, all could be accused of not being good enough. 

However, having demolished Birmingham you'd say the team was.

The issue, for me  is one of mentality; commitment, consistency, fight. The things we showed at Wigan, which are missing again.

If they can't maintain that level, then of course, some will need to be moved on, but good luck deciding which ones.

 

You can't win promotion by dining out on one game. I'm not sure how much more obvious some of these could make it that they aren't good enough.

Must admit, it think one or two of the subs in recent games have been odd; rushed and ill judged. Interrupted the rhythm against Rotherham.

 

[ph31]

Only positive from this shambles is we've got a manager that's prepared to make changes. Id be even more impressed if he took Jones off and play with 9. What's happened to him this season?

[Zog1]

I think the thing that this shows, is that the team is built to play 1 style and in 1 shape only and that was Evatt's. The entire team looks unbalanced, tons of near identical players, all decent enough for League 1, I'm sure but just not together in a single team.

[bwfc4ife]

I think the three subs first half were a stupid call but I’ll forgive Schuey because he probably got caught up in the emotion. It made no difference and limited our options second half. 
 

Today just a total shit show all round and any chance we had written off.

He's off to Australia in the summer.

He was shit, thats why he went off! As alot on here say, we are not managers, SS is

[Zog1]

I like Jones and Cogley but the reality is that theyre both average or lower level League 1 right backs/ right wing backs. Remeber Cogley was signed to be backup for a player that didnt come.

So, which ones are you replacing then?

It isn't one game, but this season in particular has been very poor.

As I said before, if none of them are good enough, including the squad as a whole, which ones are you replacing?

No way on earth are they all going, so which of the "crap" are staying?

SS has his work cut out, but I reckon he will have an idea already- he won't agree with anyone though, that none of them are good enough. 

 

[CumbrianWhite]

Hopefully that’s the last time we see Morley,Thomason and Sheehan in the same midfield. Slow, imbalanced and weak. 
 

The midfield 3 only works when you’ve got a ball carrier in there. 

[1969]

If SS was in any doubt about the players, today's performance should nail it home that a fair few are not good enough either physically or mentally

Spotted him at half time and he was limping quite heavily

Jones is finished. His legs looks like they’ve gone and he didn’t have much pace before anyway. 
 

Cogley is fine, been our best player since schumachers arrival. 

[deeane Koontz]

Deary me

[1969]

And just as we thought it couldn't get any worse

Says more about the rest of the team tbh.

 

 

[mickbrown]

Just want this shite season over with. 

[batton carrier]

I'm glad I'm not managing this lot.

SS has his fucking work cut out this summer

[Deanu]

The positive I’ll take is the reason I wanted to new gaffer in for the rink quarter of the season. At least he can see how mentally & physically weak are squad is as well as injury prone added to it the fact none of them can hack any sort of pressure situation. Any new manager taking over if Evatt stayed would only see that when going into next season, at least Schuey can address it after seeing it now in time for the start of the season. A lot of these players need fucking off & we need to get a proper physical centre mid in along with a physical forward they’re priority’s.

[Jol_BWFC]

Lost. GD taking a hammering. Perhaps 2 (more) players out for the season through injury. Good day at the office.
