TONY, you've had the backing,bought in the players you want and tonight you come up with this:-
GRIFFIN- a LEFT BACK that you INSIST on playing RIGHT BACK
PUGH- a LEFT MID that you INSIST on playing LEFT BACK
CRESSWELL- a STRIKER you INSIST on playing LEFT MID
SIDIBE- a PLAYER you INSIST on playing AS LONG AS HE HAS A HOLE IN HIS ARSE,
even if it means dropping 1 of,if not THE best striker outside the prem.
i feared the worst when i heard the team and so did everyone i spoke to. yo are too negative tone. winners push on and play with positivity,you don't see manure thinking negative in any way

hit the nail on the head and something i was thinking at half time. Teams know us too well now and know how to stop us. You cant rely on set pieces all season. Like you sais..its not working and its time to try and get some round pegs for those round holes!

cheers fellas,
if we're going to hope for set piece goals then you might as well drop riggot and go with the goalscorers of cort and shawcross. lets face it,we struggle for clean sheets anyway so we might as well have the goal threat

You could also add Leon Cort to that list as I always felt defenders were supposed to tackle?
How he starts before Ryan Shawcross is a joke almost as big as Mama being picked before Ricardo.

Bugger long balls or carpet football, this TP idea of playing all but the chosen few out of position FOR NO GOOD REASON except maybe control freakery is probably going to cost us promotion. I truly don't understand why he keeps doing it, it's just idiotic.

He should have played fuller, ameobi and mama just behind those two.
We give teams far too much respect in my eye.

Chris - you're spot on mate. In the pub before the game with talk of Ricci and Lenny back, predictions of a 3 - 1 victory were being widely touted.
Then we heard someone on a mobile say "you're fucking joking!" The guy in question relayed the team news to the assembled drinkers and a shroud of pessimism enveloped the place.
Predictions of 1 - 2 and 0 - 1 defeats were then touted at the prospect of not only Lenny and Ricci NOT starting, but also the inclusion of Cresswell and Pugh, plus the continuation of Griff at right back.
TP's done well to get us where we are but his increasingly bizarre team selections have all but cost us automatic promotion this year imho.

Spot on you lot, The thing that worries me is ,TP seems to put his faith in the older players unlike Warnock who played who he considers his best side, amongst those a 17 yr old!!. I was also disappointed when I saw the team but you could see it coming its a side picked by TP He has to play Pearson and Ameobi because of the dosh hes paid out, but in my opinion our youngsters on the bench would have been better on the pitch last night. Still,  four to play we could still do it, however the bloke on the box said last night 7 points out of 24 is not promotion form is it?? |

To even think of having sidibe on the pitch and fuller on the bench in such a crucial match is shocking, negative and so frustrating to watch. |
