Well about 30 minutes ago Do these players actually want to stay up? No Passion, No Urgency, No Pressure No Guts Not f.ucking one of them seems to give a f.uck. This time last season I honestly thought some of our players would have run through a brick wall to keep us up.. This season there's just nothing. We attack, the ball breaks to the edge of the area and the nearest midfielder mingmog is stood 20 yards away. He should be breaking his neck to support the attack and get on to such loose balls. First Half they just kept attacking down our right with Job and the injured Liverpool lad and it was just a matter of time before they scored Second goal was really bad to concede. Ramage was nearest to the guy crossing ball, but ran into the penalty area and pointed at someone 10 yards further away to pick him up, end result he has all the time in the world to make a perfect cross for the goal. We improved slighty when paddy come on, no idea why Wilson wont play him especially with the dross he plays infront of him. Jim O'Brien, How on earth does he get picked time and time again, summed his night up when he committed a foul and the Barnsley fans were chanting off, off off. Terrible. Brek Shea had a fantastic chance in the second half to pull one back from a yard out, it was probably a 60/40 ball in his favour just needed to put his foot through it, instead the fecking girl he is , stuck out a toe like he was testing the temperature of the water and prodded it to the keeper. Why was O'Grady taken off?? Proschwitz never wins a 50/50 ball, only guy on pitch softer than him is shea. Wigan were there for the taking tonight, they beat us without even playing welll. We had our chances but they were too few and far between. second half they sat back and allowed us to attack and still we couldn't score. We did play some nice football at times but we need to stop strolling about and lose this tomorrow will do attitude. If this was a game we were expected to lose then Danny should have gone **** or bust and gone for it. we should have took the game to Wigan. Woods is a nice passer but he's like Keith Hills hand brake like we had with Greening. Everything tonight was way too slow and when we do try to break quickly you can guarantee some one will put their foot on it and turn to pass it backwards. Also way cant Kennedy pass the ball whilst moving, is he incapable of this.
I've said similar mate, wasn't there tonight but this season it's like we're defeated before we even get onto the grass against the 'big teams' in the league. Hate this concept that we shouldn't expect anything from them. Well I don't expect results but I expect performances, and we're just not getting them. Had to laugh at the O'Brien thing, hopeless. Well done to you and the rest for turning up tonight mate, shame the Barnsley team didn't bother.
Judging by the comments posted on here I am glad I didn't bother going tonight. If the players can't be arsed then why should I be bothered especially as it costs me money. I'm getting fed up of mistakes and lack of desire costing us week in week out.
It would be great if we had a manager with Micky Mellon's voice, Wilson's experience and contacts in the transfer market, Flitcroft's motivational/man management skills, and Keith Hill's jacket.
Barnsley have no quality. First half we were totally out classed by a team bought with premiership parachute payments. O Brien tries but his brain is not in touch with his feet. Shea is a big tall dandy no guts. McLaughlin should never have been on field, the lad was clearly not fit and Wigan exploited it. Pimpong has a lot to do to adjust to championship football and is lost at present. Kennedy plays backwards all the time because it is easy option. Man of match for us was Jennings, quick and tried all match. On tonight's showing I really cannot see us stopping up. If they lose on Saturday, which on this showing, they could then we will be cut adrift. Could not fathom Wilsons team selection tonight, nor his subs. At two down I would have thought have a good go and brought Cwyska on . Not looking good on tonight's showing. By the way I could piss on Shea even at my age, a total waste
**** em, if they can't be arsed neither can I. Some other sucker will be paying their wages next season in div 1 cos I for one won't.
