A lot is also being said about his after match comments. Saying he/Collins was ignorant and disrespectful for not giving any credit to Horsham's players. I think this is ridiculous and I'm sure Neil didn't mean it to be disrespectful towards them, at all. He was angry at our players and he had every right to be, although I'd still like to know why he didn't pick the strongest possible team, he still did make some changes.
The post match moaners have been out in force.Spouting tripe regarding the manager is both puerile and plain daft. We’re in a better position this season than we were under Duff at the same stage. Interestingly if you check you’ll find that most moaners have less likes than messages, which speaks volumes.
No I didn't go. But I've seen majority of games either in person or on I follow season. And I think based on what I've seen so far this season, regardless of the result or performance yesterday, it's completely bonkers for fans to be calling for him to be sacked.
Disagree with the sack the manager calls,I still don't think we'll see his true style of play until he can put the best eleven fully fit on the pitch. If we do get to that point and we still don't perform to our expected level then will be the time to ask questions, I'm still on for automatic promotion and belive we will be the team to beat in the 2nd half of the season...
Imho we are comparing last season as a whole against so far this season (well genrally)...as the op suggests we are genrally better off at the same stage. As I see it it the players we have at the moment are genrally not as good as this time last year, with the exception of Cole and our injured keeper. I put that down to a coach and 2 out of our back 3 still learning their trade. The football itself so far isn't the best or worse but I would argue that Duff's at the same stage wasn't either. If a I have one criticism, its that, out of possession we are slow as a unit in transition, to get back. I also think that if teams do their homework they will (and some have) suss us out. We have come unstuck with high press sides who move the ball quickly against us. I do believe that's more down to the players we have, rather than anything else but we do need to be quicker in and out of possession. Overall I think we are doing well and an ok watch but the coach needs time and opportunity to bring in some players. My real fear is that Cole and Styles may leave in Jan and there may be another mini re build.
