So the manager cocks up the team selection royally, then hauls 3 players off at HT to shatter their confidence.

This guy needs to go and go soon

FFS, so your argument is that he should've done nothing at halftime?

Seagull58 · 2025-02-01T13:44:44+0000

Playing Hinch on his own in midfield was suicidal. At least Fab, along with the rest of the world, has recognised that. Let's see if he can get a tune out of the players this half.

If the team selection is wrong, surely he needs to make changes?

If he didn't make changes, you'd be here spouting sh!t that he hadn't made changes.

In fairness, there was obviously a lot more going on behind the scenes which also councided with another injury crisis. PBOBE publically said that we run the risk of having loads of fit unhappy players if we strengthened. What happened...we were left with a thread squad for the second half of the season.
People also conveniently forget our previous £150mill midfield was sold and replaced with freebie Dahoud. I'm not saying RDZ's conduct was respectful or right and he made his position untenable in the end BUT he did get sold a little short with signings. He left and we spend £200mill on signings...

We bought Baleba last summer as well. Not quite Caicedo, but definitely worth more minutes than RDZ gave home as has been proven this year.

I think you'll find Fab will say we played good enough to win the game but weren't clinical in from of goal

The H in FH now stands for Hypia as far as I am concerened, would rather see Fat Sat in the job.

I’d rather see Sat Nav in the job, at least they’d know where the goal was.

Weststander · 2025-02-01T13:45:31+0000

And people wonder why so many aren’t bothering with the FAC, it’s not all about the KO time.

A penny for TB’s thoughts, is it still really “Trust the process“, not any jam today?

So you wouldn't have moaned if he'd made no changes at half time? Yeah, right!!!

Or alternatively react during the first half...

Because he probably expected his defenders to do their jobs and not just watch Forest score?

OzMike · 2025-02-01T13:46:18+0000

It is a travesty, why do we always strengthen in the 2nd half.
It is obvious that it is too late and a waste of time and rescources.
I should have gone to bed, think I will now.

Ethelwulf · 2025-02-01T13:46:54+0000

Pen for us?

SeaGullBum · 2025-02-01T13:46:54+0000

a Top 7 finish in his first season would be some going, actually that'd be a solid start to his tenure, if he survives till may

Tony has proved himself to be ruthless if he feels the manager needs changing.

It will only need changing if we are at genuine risk of relegation, which we are not. Tony knows what he has bought; youth with potential. He is not so short sighted as we are to sack him because results and performances haven't been ideal.

Eeyore · 2025-02-01T13:47:48+0000

Nasty. Won't be overturned.

The training sessions do seem to bring on a number of muscle injury issues.
Hinsh is so isolated I feel sorry for him.

Much better second half- Hinsh was really struggling. Serious questions need to be asked why Fab started with that XI. The world and his dog knew we were in trouble before a ball was kicked

Mackenzie · 2025-02-01T13:48:15+0000

Good start to this half.

There was no midfield. Anyone could surely see we were getting destroyed trhough the middle.
