I said our keeper was poor but other than that we have good players for this level.
"you could see from results last year how weak this squad is" Yes, in the PL!!! We aint in that league anymore. Most teams in this league have assembled their entire squads for a few million in total!
Manning is decent at this level, Roerslev has around 100 PL appearances, Downs was great when we got promoted, any club in this league would take Charles or Jander, THB has played for England, Edwards was great in this league last year, Stephens has hundreds of PL appearances to his name. This lot are miles away from being the weakest players in the league.
Can you really not see that the biggest problem is that we have a manager who doesn't have the first clue what he's doing? It's like watching an episode of that old Ch4 show Faking It.
Are people still trotting out the old 'those badly behaving kids are really letting the supply teacher down' argument?
Other than a very poor keeper we have a squad that any other manager in the league would swap theirs for in a second. Fans seem oblivious to just how poor the standard is in this league.
The reason we are where we are is appointing utterly crap managers. The Belgian Ginger Computer game nerd didn't have a clue and Ruben Selles MkII is just as bad.
Any experienced FL manager would get us doing far better. I'd be 100% certain that we could have even appointed Warnock in the Summer and would have made the playoffs.
Maybe positive discrimination is ending? It was interesting to see that the FA cup draw was done by TNT Sports and not the FA and it was done by 4 white males.
It was becoming nothing more than a book of shiny ads.
When I first started watching non-league football in the late 70s the programme was just a two sided printed sheet but it did have the starting lineup which was the main point of getting it.
The hatred is a relatively new thing stemming from the 60s/70s.
Before this it didn't really exist. My great grandparents had season tickets at both The Dell and Fratton Park between the wars so they could watch football every weekend.
We've struggled for keepers for decades now. After Niemi the only decent one I can think of was Boruc. Lurch was good for one season but abject for the rest of his time here.
