Paying the price?
« on February 20, 2016, 05:11:12 pm by CrippyCooke »
Are we now paying the price for a pretty pathetic January transfer window?

Send the board my regards.

We're paying the price on trying to run the club on a shoe string.

Shipping out the highest earners and replacing them with the likes of Gooch, Stewart and Alcock.

Pathetic.

Frosty, Forrester and wellens weren't playing when we were the best side in the division, we're u moaning at ferguson to change the team and play them?
No,
If Fergie had wanted to keep them he would have

We've never been the best team in the division, not even close.

The fact is, we've brought in dreadful players during January. If we go down, that will be one of the reasons.

A fee weeks ago we were top of the form table for the last 10 games, that means over those 10 games we were the best side in the division
Not difficult

You keep talking about the past, it's gone, it's the here and now that matters. Face it, for once, we are in trouble on current form.

I'm talking about the past because he's moaning about getting rid of Forrester and wellens, who weren't in the side when we were playing well, no other reason,
I don't think there's any chance of us going down

They'd be useful to bring on when we are as crap as we are now

No chance of us going down? Have you looked at the table?
Did you say the same thing 2 years ago?

Forrester played a total of 70 minutes under Ferguson. He didnt want to be here and Ferguson didnt want him here - could that be any clearer.

Fiar enough, but why not bring someone in of similar quality. Same goes for Wellens.

That is probably the most relevant question you have asked on this forum for some time...

When did Forester say he didn't want to be here? Fergie didn't want him here because he didn't fit into his system. Which the last 9 games is utter crap.

There's a reason why hardly anybody signs players who are playing reguarlarly for their side in January,
I'd say grant has done far more than Forrester this year,

Clubs don't let their better players go in January, that's why we got the youngsters in on loan,

The real problem today AGAIN was players not being to execute the formation. It's just too difficult to play with moderate players.

Stewart played RWB and was a disaster area. Can't defend and his positioning was dreadful.

Middleton touched the ball 3 times in the first half in the centre of midfield. Woeful.

ATS just not good enough, decision making of a 5 year old and the ability to match.

Special mention to Grant for managing to play us into trouble on half a dozen occasions nearly costing goals.

We make FAR too many individual errors and wrong decisions.

Change the system please Darren to give us a chance.

Frosty don't think you can blame the board,I would like them to take more gambles and spend transfer fees on young players but saying that the club runs at a loss and they foot the bill

Sorry but they weren't. Forrester maybe no his day but nobody else.

Sorry but they were.

Wellens on his displays earlier this season were miles apart from anything else that has been served up, and we're crying out for someone like him right now.

We struggled at the beginning of the season, he only played about 6 games did we win any of them?
He played in ferguson first 3 games and he realised his legs have gone which Shrewsbury are now learning
Forrester isn't pulling up trees in a league equivalent to the north east counties

We need to play 442 and try and grind out a few wins not try this formation as Gaz says which is clearly not working,ats is no wing back Lund is no wing back but would suit a more defensive role

A bill they are not prepared to foot anymore. How about this try running the Keepmoat with 3000-4000 crowds and few other revenue streams ?

My opinion can't be wrong it's my opinion, if we go down then I'll be wrong,
Even in this poor run there are sides worse than us, we've got some very winnable games soon, my prediction will be 10th or 11th

Most non-Premiership clubs run at a loss hmm many of those do as well but aren't owned by owners worth over
 £ 1/2 billion between them. Whatever happened to the likes of Bournemouth ?
