    Default Match report - Sheffield Wednesday [post-match discussion]

    It was very much a case of a poor first half (again) followed by a much improved 2nd half (again) With Coleman making a triple subsitution at half-time.

    The attendence was boosted by an impressive and vocal Wednesday following.

    Man of the match? I think McPake was awesome (as per) and i'm really starting to like him. It was typical of Wood to get a goal though!!

    Derby next. Massive.

    Thoughts?

    Agree about McPake,superb! I guess a few of us would have been pleased with a draw before the game so its not a bad result.

    I knew we'd struggle to be honest. They scored and put 11 men behind the ball.

    Tut tut.

    Whatever anyone might think the last few games has been a testimony to Chris Coleman's management. We would have lost this games in previous yeaars.

    I couldnt agree more mate. I was starting to doubt him but now belive he is one of the best managers in the league. His team talks, and his tactics are spot on.

    His triple subsitutuon at HT today changed the game.

    His tactics change at Leicester, changed the game. (pushing the centre backs up when 2-0 down too flood the midfield and make leicester drop back.)

    Genius. Him and Steve Harrison.

    In the meantime there a thread about facebook somewhere on the forum.

    Yeah, as others have said, both at the game and on here, the first half was diabolical...then we had the misfortune to concede the opening goal...luckily Woody was in the right place at the right time tho...

    It felt like 'Boo Richard Wood Day' with all those Wednesday fans!

    On the subject of Coleman being a good manager...

    why oh why oh why does he play 4-5-1 at home against a struggling team? I'm sorry, but that's just inviting the oppositing onto you? Super Fred looked out of the place stuck on the wing, I don't think he deserved to be taken off, really...

    My main complaint about Coleman is that he's usually not willing to use substitutes until either someone gets injured, or there's five mins to go when the guy coming on can't make much impact to change the course of the game- it's a case of bolting the shed door after the horse has already disappeared!

    Also, Gary Madine scored a goal for Carlisle today- unfortunately it was a consolation effort!
