Were either piss poor or the opposition are far better than us.

 

Gone past being even optimistic, there are no signs the entertainment value will improve.

 

Our support has been good so far but even the die hards are beginning get pisst off.

 

Another poor appointment from Gartside is contributing to the decline of my football club. Holloway is out there go get him before Wiggin do.

Only me that thought it was a good first half? We had a few great chances. Danns looks tricky and skilful in the opening minutes. Hall was lively. We looked up for it in my eyes. Somehow we started to drift out of the game, but we could easily have gone in at half time 2-0 up.

 

Second half was the worst of the season for me by far. But it was a stupid mistake by Medo and a wonder strike that lost it for us. Ifs and buts I know, but had that not occurred, going into the last 5-10 minutes under less pressure to equalise we may well have won the game with Beckford under no pressure to score.

 

Still feeling disassociated with the players and the club at the minute and have no passion for it any more. Looks to me like half the players feel the same.

 

Mills has improved, no doubt about it. But I watched him lump the ball into the stand and thought I was watching pub football.

 

Shit and getting shitter in my eyes. DF, your taxi is turning into your street.........

We only need to finish 4th from bottom ?

Weve won four games this season

Ha ha

Not kidding, I know he got injured this week in training but I'd have Eagles in the team before Danns.

I can live with poor football as long as we get the results

 

 

 

I can live with poor results if I can see something (and a commitment)

 

 

 

This is where im at. Gash football or long ball shite i'll take if its winning. Struggling in the bottom half but entertaining is the next.

 

Awful style of tactis/play and being bottom 6 or 7, no thanks

 

Surely to god freedman didnt say our league position before last night was decent?

If so its backing up what im starting to think in that hes a small time manager who likes to play the underdog. Unfortunately a side 18 months out of a 11 year prem stint isnt a constantly bottom half of the championship Crystal Palace (yet!) where he can play that card

When we took Medo off, who was having a poor game (he did not even look up when he passed that ball to their goalscorer) we were left with Spearing in midfield. Medo & Spearing cannot play together so I agree with the change but we had no replacement. Where is Eagles ??  not a big fan but the last 30 mins was crying out for someone to run through the middle and feed Ngog & Beckford on the floor, lumping the ball up had not worked all game their Centre halves just headed everything clear. 

Dougie....get a grip !!

You blame medo but it was ngog who bottled it and lost possession leading to their attack

 

Soft cunt

The. One person who was running at them got pulled off

 

Hall

I didn't go (shitfan) so have no comment to make.

I'm kidding for you. Sad state of affairs if you think he's the answer.

I'm not saying he's the answer to all our woes, just that I'd rather have him in the side ahead of Danns.

Hall

 

he only touched the ball once in the second half so he must've been running without the ball

 

the two pulled off were right at the top of the needs to be subbed list

Eagles will be off in January, sold to the lowest bidder.

Free transfer...along with anyone else out of contract in the summer

Were you two watching the same game? - that's some difference of opinion there

Free transfer...along with anyone else out of contract in the summer

 

At the minute, that doesn't bother me. I can see a pretty big clear out coming in January with a few players leaving on a free, and anybody who doesn't go then (who is out of contract in the summer) will be off at the end of the season.

 

Batten down the hatches, we're in for a bumpy ride for the rest of this season.....and probably for most of next season whilst a load of new players bed in.

Just how much time are we going to give this fella?

 

It's not working, it's not going to work. Just bite the bloody bullet.

What gets me though, is after those away wins they're all out crowing in the paper. As if to say l told you so. Dougie came out after the Watford game and said l said we'd get in the top six. They hadn't achieved fuck all! I was shot down on here after questioning his tactics v Millwall. Even though we won it didn't sit right with me the way he set us up/tactics. Huddersfield attacked as unit and defended as one pressing high up the pitch away! Fucking hell are they mad trying to win a game of football! Whats worrying is we aren't getting the basics right. They were an average side, but played as a team. Id keep Dougie, we can't keep changing. However he needs to change his tactics. Especially at home.

Quite a few Leicester fans wanted their manager sacked at various points the last season or so. So least its not just us.

It's really testing times to be a wanderer.  I'm a midges dick off turning 30 and I've been a season ticket holder for a little over 20 years.  I've never been so disinterested in watching us.

 

I'm not bothered about being in the championship but the style of football and the lack of passion is awful.  Hats of to Huddersfield, they out played us and moved the ball about really well.

 

Why can't we pass & move like that.  When someone has the ball there is never any movement and nobody wants the ball.

 

We play a striker upfront on his own who can't hold the ball up at all and is dire in the air.  Why do we persist doing things that don't work.  Play to his strengths.

aye and he was sat a few seats from me

long enough, i hope

 

it really is like x factor

 

oooo, we lost, sack the manager and almost certainly appoint another one who got sacked from his last job

and even if he was 'running at them' which he wasn't as he'd had the interest kicked out of him, just running achieves little

 

he does attract the opposition but doesn't get shut of the ball well enough to exploit the space his pace/skill creates

 

he's young tho, so i'd not be sacking him yet

long enough, i hope

Long enough for what?

 

Just what are you expecting to happen? It's December. We've won one at home. One.

 

He's had more than long enough.

  • Author

no, he hasn't

 

and, we haven't got as many points as anybody would like but i don't get this obsession with where we get the ones we've got

 

home points, away pouints

 

do you get extra credit for home wins

 

fwiw, i'd take draw at home and win away, nae bother
