Havind recapped Friday's match without doubt that 'orrible erk Graham Westley out manoeuvred Tony Mowbray. Seeing his team being turned over and lucky not to be 3 down after 20 minutes Westley changed thinks used subs early and turned around a possibly tonking to a victory. That's a big concern for me to be honest.
Yep, but they came out a different team after half time and we lost an awful lot of our fluidity.Got a lucky goal on 45 minutes......That is what changed the game.
Mowbray is incredibly naive tactically
Other teams working us out IS the manager being out thought!Mowbray generally signs good players, but prioritieses his favourites over the good of the team.
Whether that is performance or tactical wise, he gets out thought by other managers far too often.
This 'other teams have worked us out' nonsense is just that. Nonsense. If you're good enough you adapt and tactically beat them back, exploiting their weaknesses. Instead we've been embarrassingly out done far too often this season.

Let's just talk one aspect of our game. We use RCC to roll the ball out almost all the time so we do that invariably it goes short to a full back a centre half or to Fleck or Vincelot maybe even Murphy out wide they can only go backwards or sideways, little option ahead so we have penned ourselves in our own half opposition press high and eventually the ball ends up back to Cooke who has little option but to welly it up field where little Armstrong, Joe Cole or Maddison are expected to win headers against 6 foot centre halves, we lose possession and are penned in our half on the defensive, happens time and time again. Tactic is simply not working, just watch tonight. Can't Mowbray see this ? The rest of the country did Froday night !
Think that's more the modern day football set up. Play out from the back, need movement from your wide players tho for it to work.
look at fleetwood when they came they played out from the back to their defenders that were level with the 6 yard box. Something Germany did also v England.
I'm not saying it's right but just the modern way, like the 4231 formation. Most teams have sacked 442, 433 off, Swindon. Played a 352 system against us but many use 4231.
The tactic is okay with the right players, no good with titches trying to out muscle big guys you eventually get overrun
I really like the guy. Would love it to be him that brings us success, bit as you say, is he the man to take us up?I like the guy but not sure he is the man to take us up.

Three times this has now happened to him and this season is so much beginning to resemble the Middlesborough season where they were 3rd at Christmas, 7 points clear of 7th place and they ended up 16th.
If we are not careful this could well be a mirror image of that. If it is you have to ask, what has he learnt?

Statements like this really make me laugh. Hear it all the time on 6 0 6 and the like. You are passing a judgement on someone who has worked in this industry for the past 35 years plus. You know more than he does? I'm pretty sure that Mowbray (Pressley or most other managers too) would have more football wisdom and know how than all of us on here combined. I was listening on the radio to a celebrity football fan talking about how he had sat through a game with an ex player( can't remember who either were, perhaps someone else can). The fan commented how the ex pro had talked him through the game pointing out things that were happening every few seconds that he would never have noticed. I know when we are playing well and when we are not, when I am enjoying a game and when not. Not everyone will agree with the way I see a game as it is all about opinions. Even though I have been a fan for a long time and played at Sunday League level when young, I know that Mowbray will have forgotten more than I will ever know. Mowbray makes mistakes, who doesn't. For someone with presumably little experience inside pro football to come on and question his tactics is a laugh. What ever job you do I would expect you to be far more knowledgable than me. Would you tell a doctor of 35 years experience how to do his job? Even poor doctors know far more than us on the outside. ( Mowbray is far from being a. Poor manager by the way). I look forward to lots of humble pie if ( I think he will, next season if not this) he gets the chance to turn things around. Who could we get who is better than him or is it a case that anyone will do?
Let's put this in prospective we have signed a couple of 18 year olds plus this Bulgarian guy. Forget the Maddison money little or none of that will be spent on players, Anderson has clearly stated the budget if we stay in this division will be similar to this season and he has already revised the break even average gate from 11000 to 14000, just to cover his back I believe.

we should have scored 6, was just unlucky.
play like that tongiht and we will win i am sure
Not just him, a fair number of managers have done this in the last 3 months.
Because he's got all of the summer to go through night school?So why do we persist with TM if he's continually getting out-thought?
Yeah, because if you are out thought in a game you are out thought in every single game throughout every season and there is never any deviation from that.Wasn't Westley manager of P'boro when we came from 0-2 down to beat them 3-2?
Must have been tactical genius from whoever was managing us at the time.

I thought Baker left?Yes he bought on a player who almost single handedly changed the game.

It is written in stone and simply cannot be that sometimes you can out think someone, but for the most part be out thought.
But then the 4-4-2 did well for England against Germany
