Woods must be playing wide, strange decision by PD id rather play Copps or Cotts. Copps doesnt even even make the bench! Happy to see Forrester on the bench hopefully he cant get 15 mins or so

I hope we can sort that defence.

Yay, sounded like we had started okay as well

Is everybody going to start sounding off about how McCullough isn't good enough now, like they do every time Rob Jones makes a mistake?

No it's not his fault that the club have failed to bring in a experienced centre half when Rob Jones was injured. Even Rob Jones was said not to be good enough. Let's hope we can score otherwise could be another 3 or 4 loss.

Not really the point I was trying to make.

Let's just hope that Yeovil don't get a result today. That's not the early Chrimbo present I'm looking for.

Without having seen what happened, it seems like it was more of a problem of having an inconsistent back 4. They have performed well enough overall. I don't think spending there is urgent or wise thinking of the overall club situation.

"Performed well overall ?"... really ?... there are only two teams in the whole of the football league that have conceded more than us so far this season !!
And as I type, we concede another. I don't blame McC.... he's been given far too much responsibility far too early. Well saved Ross.

That's the most likely result against us. Bournemouth doing well though, and surely Barnsley will lose at Leeds. Anyway, it always boils down to us needing the win COYR! :scarf:

Part of that is due to Dickov pushing to get a result when other managers may have not - definitely the wise way to go. And its been an inconsistent back 4 which always causes problems.

I make that 5 penalties against us this year, not all of them correct (Watford anyone) and not a single one for after 22.5 games

We were never going to beat Derby tbf, they're flying right now.

However, we need to see some improvement sooner rather than later if we are going to stay up.

Must knock the stuffing out of the players when we concede to many soft goals.somone must be at fault.makes it an uphill struggle for the forwards.dont mind conceding to quality goals but some we let in are the result of simple errors.

Post by: foxbat on December 21, 2013, 04:24:29 pm
Derby are promotion candidates after all , so perhaps to be
expected , but this happening every game is depressing.
But it's losing to T.L.O Charlton that was really bad. :(
Can only hope teams below us do badly until January
and then maybe players back from injury plus some signings can
turn it around enough to stay up.
