I think it’s time the Manager came out and told us what’s really going on behind the scenes with Campbell, Maee and the others…something has to be seriously wrong ? Absolutely not. Being so public with Mmaee’s punishment was a massive mistake. Sorry but I disagree…all that will happen is that the fans will start to blame the Manager when in reality his hands may be tied by the indiscipline of certain players…basically he’s in a no win situation.

Cost us for sure today mate. The old 'down the line son!' was made for that scenario today, sadly he chose to cut inside. Onto his bad foot too. Not sure if it’s cause he has time to think or if he’s just unable to think. I noticed today that on several occasions quite a few players had a right go at him even before the error for the goal…yes he cost us today but the majority of the team are stealing a living.

It was a silly error, caused by messing about around our own penalty area. Sadly its in fashion and young players are going to try it. It's a shame as without that error we may have held Coventry to a draw They missed a sitter and had our attempts, which were poor, been fruitful it wouldn't have proved so disastrous. It cost us the game but so did the lack of quality in attack. Strikers who score get the glory and are forgiven errors, but goalkeepers and defenders who make errors get blamed, understandably.
We payed better as a team, had no luck up front, were lucky to have a certain goal hit a defender then the post.

I agree, if he allows one player to get away with indiscipline then others will follow. As to making it public, it stops speculation and for me, sends a no nonsense message. Not the first manager to show he won't take any nonsense.

There’s a reason the best managers keep it all in house and todays bizarre selection or non selections and the emergence of assorted rumours suggest as march does it wax handled badly and with huge naivety

It’s all gone wrong for him this season. When he was at his best Brown was coming inside and creating space for Hoever to attack and he was given licence to roam forward. None of our players have been able to replicate the Brown role once he left and Hoever just hasn’t had the same effect. Hopefully we don’t do anything daft like try and sign him in the summer. He was shit last season. Why we ever went back is anyone’s guess.

He was shit last season. Why we ever went back is anyone’s guess. His goals and assist tally was good for a RB and the number of games he played. It was clear as day he couldn’t defend though and when you’ve got other bad defenders like we have it’s just suicidal to have him in the team.

That’s what matters.

Blameless, we were lucky we weren't already a goal down after he completely missed his header at the back post, he fucked up as he always does and was lucky to get away with it. Absolute crock of shit and you know it Literally watch the highlights thread - what's the very first thing you see? Look closely That's right it's Rose fucking up with a shit clearance which puts the whole defence in trouble Wilmot goes for the back post header - neither he nor the forward win it, it falls between them and hang on a minute, who was that throwing his head at the ball on the line to prevent a goal? Was it Rose? Was it Hoever? No it was Wilmot Some of you people need to park your pathetic agendas against the lad Yep, Rose fucked up and so did Wilmot, agendas zzzzzzz

I knew people would wank Wilmot off for that goal line clearance despite it never being needed if he could have done the basic defending correctly.
Another awful player.

Schumacher confirmed he was only playing because McNally failed a fitness test this morning I was quite surprised to hear him say that, as both Hoever and McNally started on Wednesday and Wilmot was on the bench. So who is his first choice back three?? I can only assume he was being so candid owing to his frustration with Hoever’s mistake costing us the point, but if that’s the case it’s bad management and he’ll have lost another player from the dressing room.
