September 17, 201312 yr Common sense says we will lose but this is a very strange league and I am hoping it throws up a strange one tonight and I will settle for us getting a clean sheet for starters.
September 17, 201312 yr I will settle for us getting a clean sheet for starters. More chance of us actually winning, mate.
September 17, 201312 yr I'm at the stage where I reckon it's not the actual personnel, it's the prep, the confidence, the teamwork and the execution/application which would be pretty much the same problems/situation we had under Coyle cept they are polar opposite management/training styles
September 17, 201312 yr More chance of us actually winning, mate. 5 month since we last won 5.5 month since last clean sheet
September 17, 201312 yr 5 month since we last won 5.5 month since last clean sheet It's bleak when you put it like that.
September 17, 201312 yr 5 month since we last won 5.5 month since last clean sheet Wowowowo we was shit hot at shrewsbury
September 17, 201312 yr which would be pretty much the same problems/situation we had under Coyle cept they are polar opposite management/training styles I'm not saying DF isn't addressing these things More so that when we get them right we'll be ok I'm sure the prep is meticulous with Lennie and co for example, but at the moment it's like watching England; they're all scared to make a mistake, no belief in each other and the crowd are just waiting for summat to go wrong Put any one or two of these players in a different environment - a place where they're confident etc and I bet they'd not look out of place

I blame the collywobbles.
September 17, 201312 yr Lose tonight and its good night Vienna, he has to go Do you just cut & paste this each week?
September 17, 201312 yr Do you just cut & paste this each week? A bit like his team sheet and team talk
September 17, 201312 yr Lose tonight and its good night Vienna, he has to go So to summarise , tonight is for who kisses Betty?
September 17, 201312 yr Derby's away kit shrunk in the wash so they're playing in their home kit tonight. That should help us pass to a white shirt then
September 17, 201312 yr The fact Odelusi didnt feature last night suggests he may be in the squad. This scares me a little
September 17, 201312 yr The fact Odelusi didnt feature last night suggests he may be in the squad. This scares me a little Injury....
September 17, 201312 yr Lose tonight and its good night Vienna, he has to go All these quality, out of work managers. They'll be queuing up to come and manage us with no transfer budget at all and at a club developing a rep for hiring and firing. Sure we'll get a quality appointment in no time. Saying that, I say go for Megson, he'll do a job.
September 17, 201312 yr I think our record against these is worse than against any other club - starting with the 3-6 on day 1 in 1888, they've beaten us something like twice as many times as we've beaten them. Everton have a similar hold over us. Hard to explain really - until very recently we'd beaten United and Chelsea, for example, more than they'd beaten us over the years. One of those strange stats. All the more reason to ram a few past em tonight. COYW!
September 17, 201312 yr Straight there, straight back job tonight for me. How shit is going football when youre ill

All the more reason to ram a few past em tonight. COYW! That 1-3 at home to Derby in 2002 that Gardner scored in was one of the most miserable games Ive ever been to
September 17, 201312 yr I was convinced we were down after that. Thanks to Youri (and Fredi) I was wrong.
September 17, 201312 yr I'm not saying DF isn't addressing these things More so that when we get them right we'll be ok I'm sure the prep is meticulous with Lennie and co for example, but at the moment it's like watching England; they're all scared to make a mistake, no belief in each other and the crowd are just waiting for summat to go wrong Put any one or two of these players in a different environment - a place where they're confident etc and I bet they'd not look out of place aye, again to me, bit like Coyle, but the opposite... no doubt his style cost us our place in the PL, but at one point, it has us flying high and got us to cup semi and all that - so what he did, worked for a time (and it did at Burnley) then it went wrong, and he couldn't turn it round DF is doing everything Coyle didn't, and it's not working this season just yet, though we saw last season it did, for us and palace something is missing, something hasn't clicked yet
