[Lower West Stander]

It's a very THIN silver lining isn't it? He's only good for about five minutes a game.

Which is five minutes better than most of them to be fair

great from mc court

What's that got to do with anything? The amount of losses are restricted by the League's rules so TB can only prop the club up to a limited extent unless he's going to gamble with its future.

I bet that for the first time in this division our level of budget is way above our league position. We are not getting the best out of the players we have, simple as that.

So who do you blame for that?

 

[brakespear]

ohhhh right across the front of goal from Paddy!

 

[KZNSeagull]

Paddy beats them all and there is no-one there to stick it in

 

[trueblue]

Case in point... McCourt in the clear. Great cross. Nobody attacking it. That's not crap players, that's crap coaching.

 

[Mackenzie]

Shocking.....where were the forwards.

 

[jackcgull]

Three strikers not one of them there to stick Paddys perfect ball in!!

 

[GingerBeerMan]

McCourt flashes it across the face of the goal, our strikers aren't anywhere near it. A good striker would have been in the right position there, not caught on their heels in the middle of the box.

 

[loco61]

is McCourt not fit enough to start ...

Here's a picture from training on Friday



Could this explain why the strikers can't score, but the defenders can?

 

[trueblue]

So who do you blame for that?

Who do I blame for us not getting the best out of the players we have (a squad easily good enough to finish top half)? Who do you think? The manager.

Poor Paddy. It's not good to see a player bawling out his teammates, as it suggests a general level of unhappiness but you can really understand his annoyance. He plays like his life depended on it.

Sums it up for me when SH is just sitting in his chair - why is he not screaming!!

 

[penny's harmonica]

For the love of God why doesn't Paddy start?

 

[KZNSeagull]

Come on!!!!!

 

[carteater]

Sums it up for me when SH is just sitting in his chair - why is he not screaming!!

because he knows his time is up

Do you really have to coach a striker to attack the ball in the 6 yard box?

 

[saafend_seagull]

Wigan and Bolton winning with us playing Bournemouth next.

Bottom 3 here we come.

 

[maltaseagull]

I fear for us at Spurs and bournemouth

Probably go and win them both!
