I'm still not 100% sure what I saw today (besides 79 minutes of embarrassing crap, that part we all take as read), just 99% sure.
Option 1: It's just faintly possible the first 79 minutes was about players failing to do it Gary's way, then finally they got the message.
Or
Option 2: After 79 minutes the players decided fuck this, Rowett doesn't know what he's doing, let's just play some football and give it a go.
On the basis it was almost certainly Option 2, it's
1* from me

conceding 3 goals at home to another League 1 promoted team is embarrassing and pathetic.

Ultimately he picks the players, and having a pop at some poor fucker who wasn't even on the bastard bench is embarrassing and desperate. Piss taker!

Not a single shot on target until the goal.
Garbage Rowett. Absolute garbage.

Would have been 1 but his post match blame game makes it 0.
That attack will make or break him - the players will either respond or let him rot now. It’s pretty reckless.

0 - playing 433 against a team promoted from league 1 is a disgrace.
Putting on Crouch for Afobe was ridiculous.
Continuing to play Diouf and Ince on the wrong wings is just unnecessary.
I hope we fuck the clown off but sadly we won't.

Can't defend for the team himself but we need to be playing our creative players in these games. Crouch sub and Saido sub worked fairly well. Bojan came on far too late. Needs to drop certain players.

I hope we fuck the clown off but sadly we won't. What was wrong with the Crouch sub ? I think that putting Crouch on was a decent move - but not at the expense of Afobe. If you are chasing a 3 goal defecit then you do need two central strikers on the pitch. On a more general point about him playing Ince and Diouf on the wrong wings (which he does since the poppy lover broke his arm) - I'd have tried Edwards on the right wing and Ince on the left wing with Crouch and Afobe in the middle and Woods and Etebo as a midfield 2. Difficult to know what mark to give him after a game like that. Surely when you go 3 down right at the start of the second half it is time for at least 2 subs on the pitch if you hope to get anything out of the game? Had he brought the second sub on as soon as the 3rd went in, we might have turned the game round bizarre as it seems. I was going to give him 1 - but f*** it - I'll go for nul points from the Lake District jury.

For the substitutions, even though timing was off on the last 2.
Diouf off at HT was the right call.
He can't keep his job can he?

Was going to give him a generous 1 just for the fact that we somehow managed to claw ourselves back into the game, but I’m taking it away for his needless post-match attack on Bauer. The guy hasn’t played for weeks, and had fuck all to do with today’s shit-show. Handle that shit in house, not in public.

3 for making the changes to get back in it, other than that pretty poor, I get he wanted to keep it the same given recent results but inverted wingers against a team that will keep it compact was never going to work and needed changing after 10 mins in, can't be too critical defensively, I'm not sure anyone could sort the back four out given whats available.

I was there. I live in the states and was a season ticket holder until last season. Whenever I am in the Uk my priorities are 1) visit my family and 2) get to any stoke game(s) home or away whatever the division we are in.
I am a broken record on this.
We are managed by a charlatan. He has taken a squad of talented players, added 40 million quid of "talent" and we are an offside (twice) goal away from being in the bottom 3, and he admitted today a total dereliction of duty or complete incompetence. Apparently he literally just realized his "stalwarts" are shit. After a full pre season with them, numerous dogshit performances, and a crowd the would have told him that at any time of asking.
Whats the biggest known number in the universe ? Stick a minus in front..........

On the basis it was almost certainly Option 2, it's 1* from me * if you were there please Option 2 Sal was a very astute bit of analysis. I think you were right, there was a short period towards the end when we had 6 players all within a few metres of each other and completely shapeless. They were just frantically charging around! Back to a mark for Rowett....it was going to be 1 for at least hooking Diouf at half time but lost that point and in fact also a whole heap of credibility with his needless and bizarre tirade on Bauer. Always always berate a subordinate behind closed door you tit! So its a big fat 0

The performance vs Swansea wasn’t good, GR banged on about green shoots etc and has picked the same side at home. He needed to be more adventurous. Thought Afobe was poor but was isolated, Ince was also quiet and Diouf is not a left winger, also needed Bojan in place one of the midfield 3. I would personally put Etebo on the left and Bojan in the middle. That second half (bar the last 10 mins) was terrible. Plan a was to go long, when that didn’t work plan b was to go longer
