Surely "pragmatic " is what he is doing has massive injury problems not thr best players a damaged team confidence ect he is resorting to pragmatic solutions hence long throw to Dunn playing Anderson who was terrible ( had hopes for him) not loosing to Cardiff was important even though they are a poor side. You have to give a manager like MC a chance. Not a injury plagued season on a small budget. Get through this one and let's see how we go better I think. |

Don't get me wrong I was there with my 2 sons. One I am trying to get to step away from the glory hunterness of supporting arsenal and never going ( like most of his mums family) and joining the miserable lot down at HQ.
So yes that was a poor performance and we could have lost. The atmosphere seemed down when we got there not been in a few months. Presumably getting smashed a lot doesn't help.
But and a big but (shouldn't start a new paragraph with a but to all the grammar nazis out there) MC has done a great job from what he was left with end off. He is the best thing to happen to this club in a long while. The injury list is terrible if you want to moan then aim at the conditioning team/nutrition experts. The team looked scarred and nervous no real play maker on the pitch. Let's support them on to get enough points rest and recuperate for next year.
MC needs to stay he can and will build a functioning wining team, he wants to plays the football that we like to see. Please don't hound him out give a manager that is worth it, more of a chance, than one unlucky small budget season it takes years.
Personally I would like him here 5 years bringing the youth through ect. Yes that game was pants but I have seen a lot worse
and in recent memory. The fans the ground the area deserves it and It will come. Those at Oxford on Wednesday cheer them on as best you can as long as we stay up next season will be much better. (Pass the meds nurse) [Post edited 8 Apr 16:21]

The reality is if he takes us to the play-offs. He will be pinging up on a lit of radars. We would have to go up to keep him sign him for a few more years. |

Well March is a toughy. I think it's a tall order but 11 or 12 wins or a combination giving a total of 71 to 74 point should see us make the play offs. The Blackburn and Wednesday game will tell us a lot. In my opinion I doubt it but I am often massively wrong. Could we win 12 out of 18 ? Possibly..... Sir Marti the great ..... we stay injury free and get some players back ? Let's get past 50 points first, which would mean wining the next 4 then we are in with a shout. Either way great turn around let's keep going and pushing and see what happens.

You have to want promotion. I understand the down side but the money would.have to be sensibly used. The chances of this happening this season is very very slim. But you have to want to succeed just like a decent cup.run !!! |

Well let's see what happens on Saturday. Either way Wigan winning it doesn't inspire you or the players or the club or the owner or even the FA. I bet every Wigan fan willl remember that till they die. I understand that the clubs are a business but what is the point if its just to run at a loss and try stay where you are.. The year the mighty Wigan won the FA cup and then played in Europe!!!! I can only imagine seeing rangers play in Europe. Tamworth got pride out of that the fans will be back on a rainy night watching them because of days like that. If you don't understand that then why do you bother going ??? [Post edited 13 Jan 13:15]

This to quote Clive
''Championship, as close to the play-offs as the bottom three, then I’d rather us rest players for a league game and go hell-for-leather to try and provide excitement and joy to a support base now ‘celebrating’ a decade of uninterrupted away league games in Preston
Also the bit about if we lose to the Brentford slaying mighty Plymouth MC could be in for some stick. Know QPR that's what will happen [Post edited 13 Jan 13:08]

Well we might lose away to them. Which is more likely now. They will be full of confidence after their win and we will be down after that smashing. It has to have an effect [Post edited 13 Jan 11:45]

Nonsense, Tamworth, Doncaster showed how it should be done and what it means to them and their fans. Your attitude of its a meaningless comparison is wrong. You think the fans of Tamworth, Doncaster ect walked away feeling proud of their team ?? Tamworth should have ⁶ won. They were playing against Premier players. You miss the whole point of the FA cup, its lure, it attraction. The FA cup is what is right with football today the attitude of some of the clubs and players is what is wrong. As one if the 4500 that went up there to play spot the ball in the fog, I expected more and we deserved better. [Post edited 13 Jan 11:16]

Right just to put this FA cup issue to bed. I have just watched a team of part timers in Tamworth hold and almost last minute nick a winner. A club massively ahead of them in terms of everything.
Why could we not hold our own against what was not a great see you next year Leicester????!!!! One of the Tamworth players was injured at work by stepping on a nail. Sorry just don't buy the bull as regards weaker team. Why are spurs nit 6 nil up ??
Next year a proper cup run end of it should be a priority success build success just look at Leicester...
Come on the Tamworth ... |

Look its the bloody FA cup. You have got to try more than that. Having been one of the 4500, we deserved more. If we were wining more we would have that support all the time they were great. We would pack the grounds on a decent cup run it would be amazing imagin a 6th round tie. You got to try else whats the point. Look at Leicester they have beem champions and fa cup winners and there support was shite. Need to do better MC hope this doesn't end in a form dip . Don't chamge a winning team |

To quote Clive " just one day" I hope rangers play a full team and go for them. If it doesn't work and we are losing sub them and give them a rest. Me and my boys will be 3 of the 4500 that would appreciate that.
Also did you notice Clive rubbing eyes at the stress amd pain caused by the burden of following a nutty club like rangers . Ahhhhh such fun, let's hope for a barnstorming performance from QPR
A close game leading to a nail biting penatly shoot out .... we might sneak it. |

The 3 nil at yeovil. Went there for that was that a decent cup year for us ??
Now that brings back a memory. Sloped pitch banister I think. See we can beat the smaller clubs in a cup.
Was the arsenal at home in the rain a shock??
So away from home is very few over 4o years ?

Right I forthwith register my resignation from ever starting a match thread. Clearly my fault not the shite performance by the players. I do worry that the drums are beating for MC. He needs to adapt and inject more impetus into the team. I Hooe the fan base don't turn on him as he is one of the best we have had in a while. Give it time it will click Hull under the lights might see chair back plus the winning ways. |
