Hill hasn’t won a game yet. Lets get real. There are good reasons why we are struggling on the pitch but we desperately need a win. And today was simply not good enough. You need to accept it's about building for next season in League 2 or I can see you slitting your wrists this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted October 19, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted October 19, 2019 Let’s have it right, today was the 1st time there has been any sort of expectation and we’ve been disappointed. ive been pleased with the last few games and our time will come again. Sure, we’re likely to drop but I just hope to see enough wins to keep us reasonably happy. ill leave Bristol to the cock wavers but roll on Lincoln Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Casino Posted October 19, 2019 Moderators Share Posted October 19, 2019 I would say also, wilbraham looked miles better than Murphy But they had 2 centre backs, one who has played about 5000 games We didnt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowball Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 When i saw team sheet i knew we were in trouble in central defence. For me thats where game was lost though we didnt hsve much up front until Dodoo came on. We still tried to play football tho and anything like a first choice eleven for Hilly and we would have seen them off. Amusing to see two of Parkinsons biggest cheerleaders who never ran out of excuses for the bloke giving Hill no such benefit of doubt. Follow him to Sunlun he will be no diferent there. Bad day today but still optimistic longer term Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adlington Trotter Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 As has already been said, Zouma is the type of centre back you just want to get rid of the ball as soon as he gets it. Hopefully that third goal might teach him a lesson. What the fuck was their mascot by the way? It was like some kind of cross between a rabbit and a dinosaur.

Site Supporter MickyD Posted October 19, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted October 19, 2019 Word off one of the Rochdale Whites lot were that it's a dragon called Dale. I didn't get the correlation between Rochdale and dragons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolton va va Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 We weren't as good as in recent games, but it was fairly even up to our goal......after that Rochdale pushed forward & got well on top. We're still fading after an hour or so. With injuries to 4 first choice players, I'm not getting too critical but 2 kids may be the most we can carry. More worrying is that none of Murphy, Dodoo or O'Grady look likely to be scoring many, though it's still early days for them. MOM - Lowe or Emmanuel.

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted October 19, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted October 19, 2019 Not just going off today but I honestly don’t see Zouma making it. I don’t rate his brother, even he’s a mistake waiting to happen. Edwards is a country mile better imo. If Hobbs and Wright are crocked for a while, I’d rather a half fit Earl play there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farnywhite Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Why did we play a 17 year old at center half we did have options Murphy Lowe have played there before better option hill got it wrong today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marple whites Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Quite disappointed today - really thought we would start winning games today. however, no central defenders and a lack of central midfield made it hard. lot of possession but no real cutting edge basic mistakes for their goals 20 points adrift now - only realistically building for next season, but the crowd need a win some how or other, just to give everyone a bit of a lift Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kent_white Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Zouma lost his rag when he had that agro that started in the left back position. I think he's quite good technically, physically no problem, it's his decision making that lets him down. That will come with time. Can't see Hill continuing to give him the game time he needs of he's going to continue to make such big mistakes at crucial times. Might need a loan if we get all our centre backs fit. Wouldn't be writing him off though - Jesus he's still a young lad learning his trade. And he's got talent - he just needs to learn he's not Franco Baresi.

LeggyMountbatten Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 We’re going down no two ways about it. If Hill thinks he can stroll through the rest of this season he is mistaken. We need to start winning games and show we are building towards next season regardless of the division we are in. Not been impressed with Hill so far. He’s like a pound shop Ian Holloway.

Leyther_Matt Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 5 hours ago, Marc505 said: The fucks going on with that away end? Was driving down COR at half 2 and it was mentioned on GMR that the M61 was closed just before Westhoughton junction so I assume a few of the Rochdale fans were in a prime spot to get stuck in the traffic and arrive as late as they did. We were always likely to struggle without an experienced centre back, but I thought Senior looked quite comfortable in the first half, particularly on the ball, but he was always going to be in trouble once Wilbraham came on. There’s a lot to like about Zouma, but he always has the potential for a mistake and even more so he loses his head like he did late on. Felt we were the better side for the first half with Verlinden always looking dangerous, but Murphy wasn’t decisive enough to attack the near post and there weren’t enough bodies coming forward from midfield. Rochdale obviously recognised the danger we posed down the left and once they had made their changes - the kid at right back really is something special - we didn’t have much of a plan B. Had high hopes for Dodoo after his assist but he barely touched the ball after that. In a weird way, it feels nice to be pissed off about a performance and result rather than the usual hard luck story. Will be interesting to see how we line up on Tuesday.
