I just don't see why people are defending the manager. There is nothing to like about him. Constant changes (sometimes for no reason), an utterly depressing and ineffective style of football and a complete disregard for the fans who want to see their team try to win a trophy.

 

The only argument in his defence is that he hasn't been here long, but he's been here long enough for people to see he's not very good.

 

 

 

 

 

How about taking us from the bottom 3 to 8th? 

[kingfox]

Throw the lot of them into the sea, fvcking wastemen.

[Salieri]

Don't care if that was not our strongest team etc, that was a fucking embarrassment.

[Cadno'r Cymoedd]

Just as well we didn't lose judging by many of the comments to date! 

 

Yes it was poor, with some awful individual performances, and we lacked ambition to really win it, but we're still in it. It was a banana skin we have avoided for possibly another day, so I'll take that for all the ultra bore-fest it was.

There was a chance for certain players to stake their claim but that was torrid... Jakupovic was the only one to step up 

His kicking was pretty poor. Dragovic was the stand out for me.

[Westlife]

I think the replay will be shown on BBC, partly because it will be a midweek game . . . guess it all depends on other results/replays. I like to think that'll be the redemption game.

We'd like to hear you more when we're winning.

 

It was a dreadful performance from players who didn't seem to give a fck. He gave their chance and wanted yo see who's worth keeping.

 

Now he knows. We move on and batter them at the KP. End of line.

[ozleicester]

righto, whens kick off, this warm up has been going for hours

[SheppyFox]

So naive of everyone to think how bad we were, Fleetwood were textbook perfection on how to deal with mid table premier league teams. They played the game of their season, honestly you are thick as pig shit if you expected this match to be a breeze  this game was the biggest game of their year and they made it impossible. 

[The whole world smiles]

Genuinely one of the worst games of football I have ever had the displeasure of watching. My eyes hurt.

 

However..... If people want positives we do need to get game time into Silva, James and Huth and this is an ideal opportunity.  Also fringe players get another run out.

So is there anymore televised FA Cup games today need to see some decent football

Edit: This was supposed to go in the slim thread

Watch his rating. And Puel's. In for a good laugh.

[ozleicester]

oh and for those who said we didnt have a chance, if it werent for a great save..benny wouldve scored a cracker from outside the box

[DatfoxesKid23]

fleetwood should have won it 1-0 the amount of free headers they had without scoring was shocking

My mate asked me not to message him during the match as he's recorded the game to watch later (family commitments) and he doesn't want to know the score. I have just texted him to say don't waste your time. I felt I owed it to him as a friend.

Hahaha I just did exactly the same thing. Nothing to see was there. 

 

That was even worse than Millwall away last year. 

 

Just back on way home now on coach and now. Anyone who also went should be allowed in for nothing for replay. That was truly woeful it really was. 

 

King...love the guy for his years but he steals a wage. 

 

Slimani.. Let's stop the defense and excuses. He is wank. He can't be arsed. 

 

Constant hoof ball. 

 

Their keeper didn't even get dirty

Which 8?

 

I'd say Silva was the only one, the rest have a serious question mark, if we're being kind.

 

EDIT: and Gray

Slimani. Averages a goal every 190 minutes in the PL. Roughly 1 goal in 2 games.

 

I can take arguments that he's not got enough quality for a top-10 premier league team, but you can't argue that he isn't a PL quality striker.

Shit, you think the football

in the league is depressing? Really?

I expected some effort at the vety least so the viewing public could say that both teams tried to win instead of one team just turning up to ride a donkey on the beach.

[iamafox]

What a disgrace that was.

 

Granted, we fielded a weakened side but one that should've been strong enough to knock out a lower league club. This was a chance for the fringe players to make a big impression on Puel and they squandered it. We simply don't have the quality in depth, which is why we need to ship out players who are not good enough to play for the first team week in week out.

 

And now we have a needless replay to deal with. Great.

Change the record , yes it was a woeful performance from what is mainly our second string but Puel has improved us no end . And just out of interest who would you realistically want to replace him who is

1)going to be better

2) wants to come here
