Absolute dross. Very few can hold their heads up after that, including the manager.
Bonham is shite and a couple of steady games changes nothing. An extra years contract is a joke
Hoever was a joke and isnβt as good as Gooch or Junior, both of who are our players
Stevens is crap
McNally and rose like watching billy smarts circus
Pearson pisses me off every week.
Gayle πππππππ
Leris is as much a forward player as I am. He makes brown look like messi.
I thought Johnson was ok but heβs nowhere near the dynamic goal scoring player he was at Preston and burger wasnβt too bad. Junho tried but looked lost at times.
I maintain, still, that Neil is an absolute fraud.

When during his career was Johnson ever dynamic? The blokes a bang average mid table plodder. We're complaining we don't score or create nothing then start him at attacking mid and start gayle who couldn't score in a month of Sundays. The writing was on the wall today after the first two minutes, just long ball over the top and turn out defence around cause they can't run for shit. We were told Alex was this master tactician who changes things mid game etc and I've barely even seen him change mid season let alone mid game. That Blackburn side today have lost a lot of big players and played us off the park today, absolute shocking. Being pissed on at home by the likes of Preston and Blackburn, absolute disgraceful.

For that to happen after it looked like we might turn a corner with this manager says everything.
It's not the defeat, just the fucking pathetic way we went about things, and playing that fucking useless twat Gayle

Absolute dross.

Possibly the only thing that I agree with bayernoatcake on (football-wise) is that Hoever is toss. He has the positional awareness of someone who's ingested a kilogramme of mescaline in whilst shopping in Morrisons and is now aimlessly attempting to locate where his car is parked.

Life is too short to watch that. Thatβs honestly how Iβm feeling right now.
I wanted to do something else with my Saturday today and Iβve ended up basing my day around watching the match.

One of the most disgusting performances from a Stoke side I can remember.
Neil out.

The issue is that we don't carry a sufficient goal threat so the opposition know that if they score they are pretty much home and hosed (particularly at the Bet365)
It doesn't help playing players out of position to accommodate favourites but we are so lightweight up front it is frightening

Why can no-one at the club pass a ball without taking 2,3,4 touches before releasing it? Blackburn showed just how ponderous our play is from front-to-back.
Why is every attacking forward ball in the final third over hit? Do they practice on that pitch ever? Are they surprised by the surface? And why water it for 10 minutes before kick-off if every ball runs out of play?
Why can no Stoke player put a wide ball into the box that doesnβt immediately crash into an opposing defender?
Today was dismal. Absolutely dismal.

That's on the Everything Else board. This is about how inept our manager is. Hope that helps.

All good advice but the thing that's served me most effectively in these situations is 'don't do so much mescaline when nipping out for a salad box'.

I maintain, still, that Neil is an absolute fraud. Agree with most of that apart from Johnson. Heβs out attacking midfield but has barely got a positive/progressive pass in him. Slow and ponderous in possession. Iβd move Junho more central and play a proper winger/forward out wide.

Even more evident following his tetchy radio stoke interview just now What did he say? I didn't even find it tetchy. Tetchy would at least indicate a level of anger or frustration. He just sounded sanguine, accepting of it. "We're not going to run riot over every team we come up against" was one quote I think, along with "it wasn't a 3-0 game". It was a shrug of the shoulders. Wasn't he known for his proactivity before he came to us? For identifying where things were going wrong in a game and making brave changes? He's been sucked in, captive to the under-achieving, low expectations, comfortable complacency that hangs in the air in ST4, just like everyone else.

Why oh why do we get 2/3 up the pitch stop and go backwards???
Blackburn who wernt that good attacked and kept moving forwards
All it does is lose momentum and give the opposition time get organised

Good job Pearson was there to be honest. They ripped through at will first half, he is the last of our issues, had a decent game for me, did his job as a defensive midfielder and rarely wasted a pass. Slow build up, on repeat on repeat on repeat, no urgency whatsoever. Why persevere with Gayle, he shouldn't be any where near this team, Neil is the one who needs a bloody reset!! The quality is there, it just needs sorting!!

Finally some are now seeing what I have for weeks, Hoever is a complete joke of a player some fans have been brainwashed with a couple of goals he's not even good enough for port vale please realise he's a total liability

They had runners at every opportunity like that
