My pre match chat boils down to my belief that we are destined for the play offs (a situation that 99% of fans would have accepted pre season) and as such I can watch the last 3 games without fear.....but then the fear may kick in !! Be careful about that fear…watching those teams bound for the pla...

They can learn, and one of the best things they can do is be adaptable. But in a lot of sports, managers, coaches, head coaches, have their way and will go down with that particular ship till it sinks to the bottom.... average managers take what they have and force them into their system, great man...

If this is what AI has in store for us, then T2: Judgement Day really will be the outcome…

It's interesting how perception and maybe frustration can cloud reality. If you go look at the heatmaps of Piroe and Bamford they actually are very similar and that doesn't take into account Piroe was moved into midfield for 30 minutes. The difference was once Bamford came on we had no choice but t...

I am nowhere near as angry as i was after the Sunderland game. DF has done a remarkable job getting us into this position, rest PB now for 9 days, bring him back, play like today, and we'll go up. Gnonto was subbed because he's coming back from injury and had run himself ragged, injuries occur most...

Thought Gabe (a fellow American) summed it up perfectly:

Also thought Max was spot on on Just Joe:

I think it was the subs for me. The only way we’d win that is to have carried on as we were. They smelt of panic not calm assurance. If you explain the point of that triple change I’m all ears. As for the Gnonto one don’t bother. Utter stupidity on Farkes behalf. Well said, Jaydog. He made subs, bu...

Well said. I’m still in disbelief over that decision…

Nothing to do with DF that, one slight thing, i'd have kept Gnonto on and subbed Jimmy instead. This was down to the players, and the biggest fck ups they made all game, was their atrocious passing throughout, telegraphed passing and slow distribution of the ball. He threw what he could at them, so...

Pos: Played with much more urgency today with Gnonto and Roberts getting the start
Neg: DF took them off and we lost. Correlation?

Still blown away taking Gnonto off

Nailed it, CUSSIE

You nailed it, Tyzy

Wow. Those weird late subs killed us. Great job, DF.

Really don’t understand taking Gnonto off for Joseph.

Blackburn with more urgency than us right now.

That was a miracle!

We look so much better. There is much more urgency on display already than there was last match.

Well, well, well…. What a pleasant surprise to see that lineup card for this 5:30am MST kickoff. Guess I won’t be advocating for 4-5 substitutions at HT! :lol: :roflmao: :lol: :roflmao: In all seriousness, I’m glad the changes have been made as we should see better balance down the flanks with Gnont...
