fluffy
Pugh instead of Diao
Griffin instead of Pugh
Wilko instead of Griff
Gally instead of Cresswell
and before you say it .... I said before this should have been the team
Pulis will cost us promotion if he doesn't begin to understand that you need to alter things and sometimes go to Plan B.

Gally could have started, but to be fair Cresswell has been pretty solid all season, to drop him may have done more damage to morale than playing him. Dropping Simmo, and Shawcross was pretty much to be expected, but to drop 3 of the lynchpins of our season so far, may have proved too much. I think we were not at the races today, one of them days. They had 1 shot and scored, we had loads of posession and created naff all. I think today we very nearly got out-Stoked !!! All in all a valuable point, which stops the rot  |

Crap crap crap crap crap. More crap displays like this and we won't even make the playoffs. First half, it looked as if our players had never seen a football before.

One week we're world beaters, the next we're the worst team ever to walk on a football pitch!!!
Talk about Pulis / players losing their bottle, I think us as fans need to keep the faith more than anyone

You can't blame us for being annoyed, like someone said - bad performance in the main from a badly selected team.
For the person who asked what would they change - I thought it was obvious that we should have rested Diao, Dicko or Wilko to left back, moved Pugh into the middle at the very least

it was annoying that no changes were made until the 69th minute
whats the point of signing Gallagher if he ain't been used

Post by fluffymules on Mar 8, 2008 20:58:22 GMT
I could'nt have argued if Diao had have been dropped, but I can understand why he started. As it goes it was probably the best he has played in the last 3/4 games (not hard I know), but He aint gonna get better sat on the bench

Post by Deleted on Mar 8, 2008 21:00:13 GMT
We can't afford to wait for him to get better. We need people to do the job now. It should have been Delap and Pugh in the middle with either Dicko at LB or Griff at LB and Wilko at RB.

What's up with giving him games in the reserves to get him fit? If he could play for them weekly, he'd get just as much match practice.

If we ever make the Prem TP needs a COMPLETE clearout, can't see these competing week in week out against Prem teams, esp with comments like "Simmo is tired" what the fck !!!

we were NEVER going to go for the rest of the season without losing a game, and i hope/think that our blip in form has now been and gone and from now only usual service will be reserved  i wish people would put things in perspective, 2nd in the league, without touching distance of topping the league, what we have achieved is above anyone's honest pre-season expectations, and the fact that with 9 games to go we sit 2nd is in my opinion bloody worth being proud of and the only input the fans should be giving is of gratitude and pride of what this bunch of over-achievers has achieved thus far. Of course there's a few issues within the team that need ironing out such as the defence leaking silly goals, that although haven't cost us hugely this season, will in this latter and more significant part of the season. With a striker to play alongside fuller and chip in with some goals ( hopefully nugent ) we in my opinion have the jigsaw complete and a side that can and hopefully will provide us all wit hthe joy of supporting a team who have achieved than long-term target and reached the promised land. |

Its not just a blip, there were worrying signs even during our five match winning streak. We have some great players to make a great team and forwards that would be an absolute handful. However these players are having the life choked out of them by some aspects (not all) of Pulis' team selection and tactics. And it's bloody infuriating.
