f***ing shit that second half was. There was nothing wrong with our performance until Poyet decides to bring Carole on and change to 4-5 f***ing one!!!

How many shots did Norwich have first half? Yes they had possession but we sat deep and did nothing wrong. Poyet's decision was shocking. Every move came down are right flank because Carole was light weight, and generally shocking. Dean Cox and Mcnulty are both better than him and weren't even on the bench today.

Poyet your subs were appalling. Going 4-5-1 half an hour before then end is ridiculous and then bring Hart on, why oh why? El-Abd in the holding role would have been better. Absolute bollocks.

I dont care about the positives, we need to win. The twats on the phone in continue to try and cover it up like last year. We need a win. All these positives eventually end in us losing.

Oh and Navarro and Holroyd, take a bow, fantastic performances. just a shame you were both taken off. Sort it out.

Thankyou:thumbsup: Saved me writing that all up, pretty much word for word. Inviting a team like norwich on to you with half an hour to go was a comedy move, Hoolahan, Holt, Johnson and Martin to keep out in a team full of confidence. Not only that, but bring on Carole to form the 4-5-1 who cannot defend for shit! Dickinson or mcnulty or possibly hart would all have been better choices to play right wing (mcnulty left with bennet right) than carole. I said it as soon as i saw the change being made, that we would lose, and look what happened. Inviting Norwich onto us for 25/30 minutes was stupid :US:

I agree. Terrible decisions on the subs. Going to 4-5-1 just allowed them on to us. Dicker fine to come on but Carole?! Why?! Should have been Hart then or Dickinson. Then to bring hart on late when we had Dickinson on bench?! Again why?!

I think you hit the nail on the head with that comment, it is very naive to think that any team will withstand over 30 minutes of pressure constantly defending for that amount of time.

You see it time and time again on telly in the premiership, top teams so ofton score in the last few minutes, purely because the other team is defending so much and eventually they are camping in there own penalty area.....just asking for problems.

The game was there for the taking should have been Holroyd for Dickinson not Carole

Agree with all that apart from the phone in. I heard many negatives like sack Poyet and bring in slade, but I believe we will come through and string a good run together..... Carole is our worst player get rid! Hart/Dickinson or Cox would have done better....First mistake Gus has made IMO....Team is looking very solid now, Navarro and Crofts look tidy and strong although not that creative..Eplphick and Virgo seem to have sorted out the blunders now the strikers need to start scoring and we will start to win games...Nearly beat the best team in the league today, probably just an error by the manager on the substitution cost us the game....We should still try and keep the faith it has to come!

The other thing was Dicker and Crofts were higher up the pitch than Carole, it was a shambles. On the train to Wycombe I said we would go down, and despite the fact i like the Poyet personality, he made a mistake today and despite his over all ability I stand by my statement.

Our Midfield was quality until Poyet fvcked it up with the change to 4-5-1.

I said to my mate at half time that Murray's miss (again) would probably cost us dearly today, and it did. Banjo and barn door spring to mind.

The thing was they had the same possession in the first half yet they couldn't break us down, we didn't need to change. Maybe we could go 4-5-1 twenty or fifteen minutes before the end but half an hour before was just inviting one of the most attacking teams in the league right onto us.

We should have just brought Dicker or El-Abd on and sat either them or Navarro in front of the back four.

Yeah 11 goals so far and having a shot cleared off the line today, what a donkey. :laugh:

What a prat!! Neither of the 2 goal line clearances were misses by Murray both were down to good play by the defenders and organisation, doing their job correctly, So you could not blame Nurray who was excellant today. Definitely not a case of Banjo and barn door.

well hope your mate told you that you are knob, Murray is quality and one miss does not take anything away from that
