| New Temporary Manager Bounce to give U's the edge in basement battle 09:29 - Sep 24 with 1133 views | durham_exile |
I have little time this week to pen my thoughts, so this is the truncated version.
I think everyone was agreed that WB had to go. I had suggested five more games to see if he could begin to turn the super tanker, but it was a forlorn hope.
So Steve Ball gets the temporary manager nod and in a way what a crunch game for all concerned.
Keeping it short and sweet
4,4,2
O'Hara
Tchamadeu Chambers Dallison Kazeem
Newby Chilvers Longstaff Lubala
Appiah Sears
Subs
Hornby Eastman Chesters Coxe Clampin Judge Nouble
Weather 17 degrees celsius and sunny
Crowd small (2,800) but not miniscule!
Scoreline 3-0 to keep the faithful happy
Get that appointment made this week, the super tanker cannot be allowed to drift like the Ever Given, otherwise we will have our own Suze crisis on our hands.
Try to enjoy the game.
Up the U's

4-4-2? Not a chance whilst Humes is still the puppet master. Hoping for better, but probably will be a lone striker, one shot on target. Let’s hope it goes in: |  | | |

Finished work early, so ticket booked and off we go.
I am just hoping we play with some attacking intent instead of playing for the standard 0-0 of recent matches
Rid the starting XI of Chambers, Skuse and Appiah
3 points today |  | | |

Another pissarro poor performance- just like Tockport and Tranmere. No forward capable of holding up the ball , Chesters not looking up when he has the ball so missing the runners, and Longstaff with plenty to say but doing nothing.
Bring on Eastman as a forward for second half. | | | |

Another appalling half of football.
Longstaff - thought he would be good but so disappointed with him.
Chilvers - no comment
O'Hara - calamity. Hasn't caught one ball cleanly and gives away penalty.
Rochdale are not world beaters but very well organised unlike us.
Surely 2nd half can only be better for us | | | |

Well that's O'Hara dropped for the AFC Wimbledon - looks very shaky. |  |

I hope that’s not a criticism of the club’s philosophy. | |

Does that count as a shot on target? | |

They should all be in for extra training tomorrow. Pathetic and here comes the National League | | | |

...and that, ladies and gentlemen, is why we not only need a new manager, it's why we need a manager coming in from outside to shake us awake from the torpor of a succession of failed internal appointments. As frustrating as it was, no blame on Sears, he put his spot-kick in exactly the same place as theirs, just this time the goalkeeper guessed right. | |

I would send all the Ipswich has-beens except Eastman and Skuse back to Suffolk and Longstaff back to Newcastle. THE worst performance I have witnessed in twenty years. Humes and Ball are tactically clueless, the team selection and set up defied logic.
The refereeing was also diabolical. How did Breakspear miss the blatant Rochdale hand ball before O'Hara fouled to give away the penalty? Hannant dived for our penalty (but he has to be good at something). A shocking, shambolic, performance. I fear we are destined for non-league. Humes Out! | | | |

And that was the only shot the keeper had to save | | | |

The biggest difference between us & Rochdale was that Rochdale had a style/ formation they stuck it and were very well organised.
Also their manager realised Tchamadeu was pressing forward lots and made a substitution to nullify that threat. Why is it other managers can see these things and make correct tactical changes whilst ours cannot?
Shows how people have differing opinions but I thought Chesters & Lubala were doing OK yet SB subs them.
Why is our GK so scared to distribute the ball quickly and always pissing around passing to Chambers/ Dallinson 100% of time. Variation is OK and a punt upfield is allowed even if DOF says no.
I am very angry with what I saw today | | | |

A bottom of the basement game, decided by two penalties, one scored one not, one definitely was and one not . But it did show how poor in execution are play has become, regularly from game to game, with such experience about and within, what a disgrace to the club and shirt .
Games are decided by small margins those within say, but sadly are margins are bigger than that has the quality is lacking throughout, surprisingly since of the experience within the squad. The result vindicates the external appointment required, due to the easy excesses made for results and performances .
If it loses its league status come the end of the season, it will get what it deserves, has it has enough warnings on past season. Scunny on a Tuesday night anyone . [Post edited 24 Sep 2022 19:34]
