ref was poor but we were worse. El Abd should have been shown 2 reds for that horror challenge, plus elphic could have picked up second yellow for the silly challenge in the corner. their 9 should have gone too.
please don't use ref as the scapegoat though... the man to blame is called dick...
the man for the job is Alan Curbishley. knows how to slowly but surely build a club, is loyal, is local, has managed homeless teams before, took charlton from ground-sharing also rans to premiership regulars. plays good football too. okay we couldn't afford him but surely if we're serious about...
enough really is enough now. was sad to see wilkins sacked and angry that adams was brought back in. gave adams a chance but anybody who thinks he's doing a good job is WRONG. he is now a terrible manager and the quicker he goes the more chance we have of salvaging something from this season...
just telling you what he said. that is all.
to be fair we made some tremendous signings back then. carpenter, brooker, watson, oatway etc helped us monster the league under taylor in the second championship season.
perth seagull - its not the same set of players, adams has last year's squad PLUS about 12 new additions. takes some extra special managerial magic to take the team that DOWN the league and out the cup at first round.
he would only sack him if attendances dropped to around 4000 and we were in the bottom 3. don't think the boad really care if we have a fairly dull lower mid table season as long as the attendances hold up and people renew season tickets. some people will agree with them i suppose.
whatever you thought last season surely you have to think, in hindsight, he did an incredible job to take us to 7th last year. smaller cheaper squad, playing loads of the kids. adams has taken his squad, added loads of players, but somehow we've gone backwards. wilkins was a promising young...
we created one proper chance when murrey clipped the bar first half. that was all. they had about 5 great chances. first half we looked okay but second half was woeful. poor substition didn't help things.
sorry buy anybody who think adams is a good manager is WRONG. yes he did a god job first time round but his overall record in football manager is mediocre at best. for evidence of his qualities, just have a look at his great work this season. his signings, his tactic, his subs, his selections...
well said horney. its a complete shambles. what adams states and what he actually does are miles apart. his comments about wanting to entertain and play the right way and excite the fans are a joke. he is and will always be a keep it tight, take no risks, bang it forward early kind of manager.
