  • You honestly think he got lucky that both of his substitutes scored??   Fuck me.   Are you this negative about the club all the time because the club shop refused to sell your book??

  • I'm optamistic he'll do well, only gripe I've got is not going for it more, at times, against poorer teams and not getting the 2-3 goals we need to win because we are   just not keeping clean sheets

  • I'll go off results, thanks.   So far they aren't good enough.   The same shower who reckoned that Megson was the greatest ever Bolton manager are getting behind Freedman.   It doesn't inspire c

listening to freedman post match, their goal didn't cause the subs

 

de ridder was always off after an hour

 

he also said they've watched burnley and know they slow down towards the end of the game so we hada plan to exploit that

 

did they or is he talking shite....who knows, but we won

 

i find folks finding fault with his subs today, a bit strange

 

unless they just like a moan

 

 

They did slow down when we upped our game. First half they were snapping around us. 2 nd half they couldn't maintain it. Looking at chances we could have scored a lot more when upped the urgency and tempo

I aint convinced one bit, and his philosphy doesn't inspire me to be so. He got lucky today, why does it take the side to go a goal down for Freedman to make a sub.

 

The good thing here though is we could win the league and you, jay and a few others would still find fault. My first game of 2013 next week and I am excited so lets get behind them

Hope what freedman claims is true otherwise he's falling into the delusional Owen Coyle Mode, did his plan also involve us being dire for 60 minutes?

Maybe just, maybe he actually knows more than the rest of us. In terms of football and individual personnel.

 

Not even worth the fuckin argument

Hope so he's being paid a fortune to sort it out.

2 subs come on and both score and we win 2-1 from being 1-0 down so give DF a break you never know he might just might know what the fuck he's doing, if that was Fergie or Jose making those decisions they would be hailed as master strokes

This with fucking bells on

It's what he knows compared to other managers that's more relevant.If he knows more than Mick McCarthy, Dave Jones and Darren Ferguson why lose to them? If he doesn't know as much as them what's he doing here?

Not sure DF knows more than them but quite sure LL knows more than them, when he retires it will be a massive test for DF.

Edited by Mounts Kipper

His philosophy is to keep things tight and win the game in last fifteen mins. Bogdan did not make a save today. We conceded a very soft goal from a corner. Sordell had no support today and think the booing was because people wanted too see him with someone else up front. Think people were amazed eagles stayed on but that has been explained now. DF is meant to be negative but he bought three centre forwards on.

That had been explained now? Kerr Ching!

So DF might be better off with a megaphone explaining his subs then as they happen.

The boos were because he didn't take eagles off who was at his puffy worst thought sunbed made a good point on radio on way home - said eagles would never show his bravery tackling and being physical but by continuing to try to take players and shots on - fair point but I think he needs a rest que mark davies

And this.

 

Thank you.

I heard browny say that and to be fair to eagles it must be difficult to take the hard option when you know your going to get hammered if it does not come off good insight from Browny.

He only makes substitutions when we go a goal behind, good fucking job burnley scored as early as they did.

 

Like against Everton in the cup?

 

Mind you, why let facts get in the way of a post on here.

Freedman is wrong club, wrong time.

 

I would say the complete opposite of this.

 

We needed a new broom, willing to work with limited finances and to bring on a promising youth set up.

 

That's not Mick McCarthy.

Agree with this entirely.

This is one of the worst examples of intellectual ineptitude I have seen on here.

 

By this rationale, Gary Megson is a better manager and 'knows more' (whatever that means) than Alex Ferguson. This was proven when we beat Man Utd at home.

Me too. It's called having a brain, being able to think long term and understanding the meaning of the words, deferred gratification.

Get off Dougie's back- just watched the highlights and there was a point at which he was smiling on the sidelines- seems very level headed and cinfident in what he's doing. Don't think he really expected to get us up once he'd got to know the players- it will take time.

 

As for Megson- just finished reading Fabrice's book- and the guy should have been sacked long ago, if not twatted by the team.

Should it not be one of the best examples? JSL.

Not read the Muamba book what was the essence of Muamba's comments.
