  1. sorry mate, we have to be winning 3 on the bounce when 2 of them are at home. That is what Leicester and Ipsiwch are doing, that is what we did last time in this league. Talk about progress all you like, but we sit in midtable after starting the season strongly
  2. Battling draw with Rotherham was hard fought, yes....nice little run of 2 wins in 7......
  3. It is clear as day that our style of recycling the ball forward like a rugby team is geared up for Adam Armstrong and Sully to be our main threats. Adams dropping deep (like Charlie Alcaraz the game before) usually meant he was met with a set defence when in the box. Completely baffling that if this is our style, we allowed Tella to leave. Rarely do we stretch teams (individual players, yes, but not entire defences/teams). Our big problem for most of the season in attack has been our desire to tip/tap the ball into the goal. Hardly working out well, is it, we have scored the 8th most, whilst having the joint 2nd worst defence, in the league. The style, the manager, the set up is failing As for Adams, he scored 22 goals (I believe) the last season he was in this league, in a side that did not have multiple international players, who was not aiming for top 2. I would suggest the issue lies with the set up that is not getting the best out of him.....I doubt it will be much different with Ross Stewart
  4. 2-2...at least 1 soft goal conceded by both teams, lots of "bravery" shown on the ball, lots of possession, and lots of excuses from Russell and co.
  5. also depends if our style suits him....a few times at the weekend Adams broke and made a forward run.....only to see the ball recycled across the midfield.
  6. those were the days
  7. oh right. so we would have had to sell Armstrong if we signed Piroe?
  8. With the scrum, they can spend ages resetting the thing….. to what end?
  9. 7/9 points is not so bad, but another look it was 2 wins from the previous 6 games whilst sat bang in the middle of the table and to not beat Rotherham? weird that you are happy with being an average championship side
  10. I don’t need to see the results of a no-mark French side to know that Sports republic are terrible owners
  11. Amazed anyone gives a toss about these clubs.
  12. Realism is beating Rotherham
  13. Would you break something that does not need fixing?!?!
  14. That is not plan B, ffs....Che Adams has scored more championship goals ina single season than the new lad.
  15. The reactions are not because of a draw against Rotherham... Have a read here -
  16. You have just made this up.
  17. in the meantime, Auto promotion (which was the aim) is out of reach, and that was by game 10.
  18. who gives a toss if the way we are trying to play wins champions league? It aint going to win promotion out of the championship, and made automatic promotion out of reach by game 10. I personally do not find endless sideways passing "beautiful"
  19. What did our great next Ferguson as a manager have up his sleeve when the Rotherham boss switched it up during the 1st half? More Russ-Ball, that is what he had....
  20. Russell, is that you?
  21. There were numerous time in the game, as we had the ball in the centre circle area/middle 3rd, Adams (or another attacker) would make run which would have meant a ball over the top or a long through pass.....hardly, if ever, tried....played very sideways But hey, Martin is please that it looked pretty So very risk averse against a team who are appalling away from home, suffering with injuries
  22. You are right. Just staying up will be amazing COYRs
  23. Leicester win again… gone are the days when relegation screwed them financially and put them in a far worse state than saints
  24. Has Baz ever had a game for us, like the Rotherham keeper? nope, and probably never will
