It's never boring, is it?

That’s exactly what it was for me. Boring. Only went cos I promised my niece to take her to this one.

Same shit and subs week in and week out. Before anyone says he can’t win. Yes agreed. Nothing he will do will win me over now.

The boards loyalty/indecisiveness (choose where applicable) are boring me too tears.

Should be winning games like this. Ridiculously poor first half from us. 2pts dropped by both teams.

I’m not having this.

It wasn’t boring.

My lads brought his mates from uni. Irish lads who loved seeing Charles and Toal after. Said it was a great game.

We had a few beers before then after. Good, exciting game we should have won. 

The only thing I will agree with you on is that you’ve made your mind up and whatever happens you won’t change.

Fair play mate. I’m glad they all enjoyed it.

Doesn’t change the fact I’m bored of him. The tactics, the standard of football.

Only time I’ve never wanted to go was under Megson but I still did as I felt the team was limited and it was the best they could do.

This lot are underachieving week after week due to repeated tactics and subs that never change.

Yes we’ve won 3 and drawn 1 in for but don’t lose to Exeter and Hudd if you (IE) don’t want results like this scrutinised.

He made the Arfield sub today because that’s what he does. No other reason. Mental when chasing a goal.

I get it mate. And it wasn’t personal, sorry if it came across that way.

It just annoys me when it’s like a jump on of negativity when we don’t win.

We’ve had a good day and that’s where I’ll probably leave it 👍

Never personal mate. Or I certainly don’t take it that way.

 

What an odd Desmond that was. Dempsey fantastic again but ran out of legs which impacted the team as none of our subs kicked us on for that 3rd goal, with what was a great tempo in the 2nd half. 
 

Great 2nd goal from them but the none existent defending for it was woeful. Just seen evatts red, the man’s a complete balloon at times.

Out of his depth doing stuff like that, I know from experience.

He should just puff his chest out and have the dominance... fold your arms and give the impression...  "I am the manager"

Feeney looks like red top wind up merchant so you need to spot this straight away and not rise

A team with 1 win in 9 can’t buy a goal or a clean sheet going to a team in good form with 11 goals in 3 games, the writing should’ve been on the wall from the first minute. However, they won’t have an easier 45 minutes than that first half all season. Out attitude and application was absolutely dire. No intensity, no press, players going through the motions. It was almost arrogance thinking we can Just warm in to the game and the goals will come when we decide. They had the freedom of the park. Absolutely embarrassing. Try not to go too hard on the front 2 usually as they get ignored or bypassed an awful lot. But today they were absolutely irrelevant. I cottoned on to Charles after a few minutes not having a touch so consciously watched him… 25 minutes his first touch of the ball. A busy striker with 4 in 2 games. If the ball isn’t coming then at least go looking. It was fucking tragic. 
 

2nd half obviously much better but why again does it take a punch on the nose for every fucker to wake up and apply themselves. It’s tried, tested and proven now, lacksy daisicle and ponderous we look absolutely bang average. Quicker, more intent, fight and composure we take teams apart. So why they default back to the former I have no idea. Beginning to think it’s more by design than chance.

Only just got home and seen evatts antics , what a fucking whopper .

 

IE’s behaviour was as embarrassment.

He makes himself look tinpot and unprofessional.

A bit like a teacher attacking a schoolkid.

Bully tactics only have a limited duration... eventually everyone gets fed up with you and switch off.

 

How many times this season have we had to witness horrendous defending already? First goal was a shocker to concede. They managed 3 shots straight from a corner. Their second is on evatt and the players.
 

The lack of leadership and balls in the team has been a problem for years now and it’s still unresolved. After the first goal someone should have just gone and picked up their player on the edge of the box, regardless of what they’ve been told before the game. 
 

The second half was much much better. Dempsey man of the match by a long way, Williams cameo was also impressive. He has to come in for Schon whose goal dressed over another poor performance. 

We’re still making the same mistakes we were making last year and the year before. It’s a shame but Evatt simply isn’t learning. He’s surrounded himself by yes men, clearly so he doesn’t do what he did today with their ginger lad today. 

For me today it was a case of the good the bad and the ugly the good a better performance second half the bad a poor performance from all 11 players and the defending Jesus and the ugly IE what can I say !!

Only had the benefit of commentary but it appears that the drop off in concentration at the end of Tuesday spilled over into today... until half time when the bully boy gave them what for 

Mid table this season

It happened multiple times last season where we left the edge of the box completely free on corners.

We conceded a few times and had some mass panic a few other times. I’m sure it happened in the semi against Barnsley at home as well.

How has the lesson not been learnt?

 

I wouldnt mind if we had 2 players upfront on the half way line and it was due to a lack of numbers but the whole friggin team is defending the 6 yard box

 

It just screams poor management and a refusal to look back and learn lessons. 

This lad Arfield???

TBH I'd never heard of him, in a thread a few weeks ago there was a bit of banter about him being good for the dressing room and someone said " he's absolutely not!!"

Well a couple of weeks on and it seems every time he gets on the pitch we seem to go backwards or give up or accept that's it.

 

Is he a bad un????

First half was abysmal, second half was ace. Would've been nice to score a winner obviously, but nothing to panic about. Couldn't care less about Evatt's red card. Handbags stuff.

I don’t think he’s a bad un, but I definitely don’t think he’s in the same league as someone like Jerome for on-field management, which might just have been a lazy initial expectation due to his age/ experience.

I’ve no idea why he came on today though, he’s proven that he’s not adding any goal threat so far and if Lolos was fit enough for the bench then he should have been on instead. As others have said, it seemed like it was straight off the whiteboard plan that was drawn up midweek, rather than reflecting the game.

They really are a bunch of shithouse spoilers. As soon as they went in front they started rolling about. One of them went down holding his leg. When the ref didn't take any notice he changed it to a head injury so Magoo had to stop the game.

I didn't see the IE incident but no doubt he was claiming that he was provoked into the incident. Fortunately for IE Feeny didn't on this occasion go down clutchng his head.

There needs to be a serious inquest into why these players are so bipolar. Why do they think it’s acceptable to not start games with high intensity and passion..

 

why does it take a bollocking to get them going

A little red head shitty player should have no chance against a BWFC manager... he should be swept aside like the piece of footballing dirt he is

Obviously, he shouldn't have done it, but at the same time, it's a still photograph. They never tell the whole story.

Let's be fair..... As much as he is an embarrassing prick at times with his histrionics, we'd all be delighted if his team showed a bit of passion & aggression.

     They used to say a team resembled its manager, we are the exception to that rule. We are like the shy, quiet kid with the bully for a father. 

Nah, we're completely in his image. Vain and brittle - Fur coat and no knickers.
