Difficult to take that one, but didn't deserve it on the balance of play...

They have a big budget with respect to the size of there club. I'd guess it's about the same as ours.

Think they may have some issues I think they were raided a few weeks ago due to some iffy stuff from the owner, could be wrong.

Only 1 team in the football league has scored less goals than us. It just isn't working and if he does a Pressley and refuses to change things it looks like we'll have a repeat of that last season under SP. We've gone backwards again. Fair play to everyone who went to see that today.

I've tried to make the point that the team isn't good enough, but have been shot down many times. Not trying to bore everyone, but the expectations need to be lowered otherwise people are going to get upset.

Mowbray's had a lot to prove in my opinion after last years capitulation, and the transfer window activity has been bizzare. I know SISU aren't bankrolling him billions, but he's had enough to assemble a good squad.

Poor decision making, poor acquisition of targets, soft team with no aggression, unable to adapt to changes. I could go on. The window has shut now, so there really isn't an excuse.

The pressure for a win is growing with every week now.

Weren't you mainly shot down because you were too early with your predictions? If we keep this run of form up more and more people will start to agree with you when it fits into their acceptable amount of games.
Well I'm now agreeing with you. More will follow.

Of course its not mowbrays fault....he only chooses the players, coaches for players, picks the formation / system picks the team and decides the substitutions.

Play as well as you like but if you can't score goals you are heading down.

That's 2 goals in the league for us. Dreadful.

A full weeks training now to work with the new players on the training ground will make a big difference.

Maybe he can figure out a new formation and approach to suit the players? Rather then signing players like Jones and reid and playing a formation they can't be used properly in.

Very disappointing result, didn't sound like we created much at all. I wouldn't be starting bigi and leaving Stevenson out. We need to turn this round soon or the teams confidence will be shot.

Yea but if we played long ball and kicked shit out of other teams we wouldn't win 1-0 every week.

Becoming a bit of a habit with managers now, something is rotten somewhere.

Need a formation change, 442 or 4231.

He's either not fit or carrying a niggling injury. Or both.

They play competitively max 3 hours a week...the rest of their working week is training. TM has enough input with the current players to get them playing better than this surely.

Can't wait for the....'We have to learn from this and move on quote due out shortly by TM'..........................The only thing I do hope for desperately when he is moved on is that just for a change some fucker has the balls to tell it like it is under SISU instead of the usual pay off to keep his trap shut !

Only players who turned up were Willis, Harries and Bigi. Never thought I'd say the latter Bigi was the only one who stood out in the first half.

Harries couldn't really do much more for the goal being the only defender back.

With two games a week a lot of the time is taken up by recovery afterwards then preparing for the next match. Not much time for high intensity training with two matches a week.
