It's going to take a while to flush that particular 'automatism' out of their mindset

How are we doing on the all important possession stats folks?

Tweaked it for you...

Matey in the dugout next to Rusk talking into a microphone...? Wonder who to...?😉

Webbed finger gloves.... Assume he had to go to Gunwharf Quays to source those....?

Feels like I'm watching the inner workings of a coconut ice factory

Yes, it is this year...

I'd be surprised if Juric hasn't had some kind of influence though...?

At least he's made Bednarek captain, rather than Armstrong....

Apologies for the pedantry, but it's Thursday

Maybe the new boss thinks he fits the high-pressing / counter-attacking model better? Dunno. Wouldn't be my first choice either though.

Jesus wept

That's a bugger, but would've thought he'll still be influencing the tactical approach today on an "advisory" basis...

Yep, apologies, I should have added "at this level" at the end of point (b) 👍

Or, it might be that he would like to play him but it's out of his hands because the club's hierarchy have already decided to offload him on 1st January...? i.e. Juric might have been the manager to turn around ABK's attitude issues but we'll never get to find out...

Lots of talk that this could/should mark the end of Stephens being selected regularly, but am I the only one thinking that Jack's 'have a go' attitude could actually be more suited to Juric's more 'rugged' approach to the game?

As CBF says, pretty much everyone on here (and wider afield) was expecting us to struggle. I believe this was based on two things: (a) our mediocre squad and (b) the manager declaring he was going to play the same way with a squad that wasn't capable of doing so. In other words, being in the relegation zone at this stage of the season is not unexpected. What is unexpected is being on a paultry 5 points and cast adrift. Being pissed off with our points total doesn't translate to: "we've got a squad that should easily avoid relegation". That's all CBF is saying. 'Success' for Juric will be getting us competitive again (with the other teams in the bottom 3rd of the table)

To be fair, we quite often play against 12 men (if you count the ref... )

Breath of fresh air. Sretno Ivan! 🇭🇷

Cheers for the explanation David, and thank you kindly Sir 👍🍻

Not much difference to when Rusk was in the dugout on Wednesday...
