Quote from: DonnyBazR0ver on September 17, 2022, 06:54:56 pmCan't really add much to what's been said already as the last 3 performances have been unacceptable. Hard to put the finger on why the wheels have fallen off. I believe the players are capable of much better. I can't believe you set out to play hoof ball in preparations for each game, but that's what we've been getting. In fact, it's not hoofball because hoofball teams try to pick up second balls, so what we're seeing is just aimless. No manager, no coach, no player plans to play like that surely! Is the team becoming over reliant on Clayton and Tomlin with players standing back waiting for them to dictate the game? If they are then we're in trouble because Claytons passing and decision making today was awful. Rowe's gone in to sulk mode and the other players seem to be going through the motions too with no anticipation, lack of commitment to a game plan and desire to impose themselves on the opposition. I've to date given GMC the benefit of doubt and felt he would grow into the role and become a good manager. Whilst it's highly undesirable to keep changing the manager, we have got to reassess where we are and shake some heads. Realistically, it's only those on the inside who really know what's going on and they will surely be asking questions after these last 3 dire performances.The worry I have though Baz is were the wheels ever on? Performance wise and stats wise, we have started the season a lot worse than the points we have picked up. As soon as that flukey run ends, you get this. If we were playing really well and hit a rocky patch then ok but we've played shite and fluked some points.

Its not the fact we have lost 3 on the bounce that worries me but its the performances. They have been awful. Ive got a feeling he’s starting to lose the dressing room. The players are good enough. But they dont look at it.
Of all the recent managers only Dickov have I really thought hadn’t got a clue.McSheffrey is worse. I honestly don’t think he knows what he’s doing.We must have a better set piece taker than Clayton who’s delivery’s today were dreadful.He’s whinging again we have no energy, he has put together the slowest and most immobile midfield I can recall. James Harper would start with this lot and look dynamic.I also thought instead of taking Tomlin off, he should have had Miller off and have Tomlin feeding Woltman and Agard to give Swindon something different to think about. Appreciate some might think that makes me clueless but Miller was ineffective again.I’m sorry if this sounds dramatic but I can hardly recall any games of his tenure that we have played well.

Time and time again we get pretty average teams turn up here and we make them look like a premiership team. We looked unfit, slow, disorganised and unable to keep the ball or find space. We never looked like scoring at all. Another 90 mins with no goals for. They were reading our passing better than we were, intercepting balls as soon as it touched a Rovers players foot. We have a decent squad, we need a manager who can make a team out of them. And this time let’s decide who we want and go and get them. With this squad I reckon it would be an attractive post if we offered it to the right person. genuine question? Do we really have a decent squad. It’s seems to me we have next to no pace, athleticism or physicality in the team. We’re desperately short in centre mid, up front and fullback. It pains me to say that Clayton was floundering hopelessly today and biggins is a waste of a shirt. Rowey took a knock and Tomlin not fit enough. I don’t rate any of our fullbacks (how knoyle got mom I’ll never know). And apart from Miller, who gets f**k all service we have nothing up top.

90% of the time Clayton takes possession of the ball in line with or behind our back 4. James Harper liked doing that. We shouldn't change managers all the time. However we shouldn't have made Mcshefferry the manager in the first place. This demise is Blunts fault
On the subject of utterly woefulRo-Shaun Williams
The next 3 games will give us an idea of just how good this manager and this squad of players actually are. Crawley are 5th from bottom, Rochdale and Hartlepool are the bottom 2.What's the acceptable points total from these games for GM to keep his job?
Molyneux? Can someone tell me what he’s done to still be in the side? Taylor on the left was sheer stupidity, then the other side was just as bad and he never tried to change it back! Lumping it to Miller a complete waste and we’re still doing it! I’ve had it with GM. Enough is enough.
