Burton Albion (h) post-match 1-2 defeat

[Cincinnati Fox]

Sideways

can’t defend 

blunt in attack 

 

just **** off top

[sylofox]

I don't actually blame Martin for this.

 

The idiot that continues to want us playing this system. The idiot that employs this style of manager that has no plan B (Enzo to)

 

The idiots that continues to want us playing this way but can't afford to provide the manager with the tools to do the job.

 

Let's be honest if Martin was gone tomorrow the idiot would only employ someone like him.

 

So it's pay someone off to put us closer to breaking spending rules and a PTS deduction.

[FoxTalkFox]

Not sure how anyone can be that surprised by the standard of Martin.

 

His track record just gets worse and worse.

[Trent Steel]

Utter wank

Yep, and performances are crap too. But you expect 3 players to carry the other 8? Sounds logical. Undermining your own point because if we actually played more of them, we'd be doing better based on what we're seeing.

 

Mind you, I've just seen that you'd rather have Harry Winks in the team over the likes of Braybrooke and Page. Think that says enough about you

That I'd rather see Winks, one of the key players in Maresca's team that led us to the Prem (and someone who can play the style of football Martin wants), versus Braybrooke? Yeah, I guess so! 

[CosbehFox]

Luke Thomas, possibly the worst footballer in the squad for technical ability, he plays him inverted full back. 
 

That’s how wed he is to his style 

 

When he goes long ball, it’s after 20 minutes of looking handy going forward. 
 

Hes on a tightrope and McCarron can go in the bin 

[damolcfc]

Then we started going route 1 after taking the striker off 🤣🤣

No big man/men up top from goal kicks, every ball won  by a Burton hero 👏 🤣

And I spent 70 mins refreshing this stream 🤣

Absolutely embarrassing.. how Souttar is worth 10m I will never know.. Okoli just needs dropping.. Thomas is the luckiest win a position in a competition that somehow has gone on for about 6 years!!!

 

Skipp apparently has played in the champions League yet looks complete devoid of any talent at all!

 

Absolute shambles 😔

[Foxdiamond]

I remember footballers going up the pyramid and the realisation they could handle the higher level. We are going the other way and not yet settled at the lowest level despite consecutive drops.  The club should admit the obsession with Martin is a farce and get rid NOW.

I've said it already, so apologies, but results are the same, so not sure what the benefit is really? 

Without JJ and Alves we'd have zero goals scored

The players costing us points are the 25+ year old so-called "senior pros" being paid the largest salaries when they ought to be playing for Wythenshawe Vets FC

[ForeverandEver]

2 games

over 1200 passes

5 shots on goal

 

Going to be a long old season.

 

Miss the days last time in League 1 under Pearson where we had some excitement with Lloyd Dyer, Matty Fryatt, Steve Howard etc. 
 

Hard to like this lot. 

[Dave Fishwick]

is that the worst result in our history?

Weird hill to die on

 

Again, maybe? It grinds on me though when some of our fans are/were desperate for players that probably aren't good enough (versus established vets who had demonstrated quality over the years). 

[Simonb]

Completely done with this heap of shite now... going MK Dons next week as Ive not been able to take my kids to an away game before due to giving up season ticket and not meeting required points since.

 

Regardless of the result we're going to have a great time. Over 4000 Leicester fans hopefully with a bit of effort on the pitch there is a bit of atmosphere but Im making sure the kids have a great day and treating it like a day out... after that I'm sacking city off for a few months.. just ruin every weekend.. dead n buried.. noone gives a crap within the club so until new owners are found I dont aee any improvement

 

As for today.. shite, turned it off just before the red. Owners want out n havent gave a fk in ages, managers crap and the squad although on paper looks good for the division, lacks physicality, leadership and heart.. absolute shite 

[The boy Linacre]

He has to be an adult, swallow his pride & get the ball forward quickly/quicker.

The last 30 mins a draw is there & we are still dawdling and bringing repeated pressure at the back by having players who just aren’t capable playing around at the back.

In the end football is a results business, he hasn’t got any & his style of playing is continually asking questions of his own team they are not capable of answering.

Additionally we are just not threatening enough at the other end, opposition keepers are having very little to do.

This style of play needs to be binned quickly for the sake of positive results and confidence and overall organisation positivity.

[Nuge]

Relegation.

Why not - the guy gave up in the 55th minute by taking our taking off our best 3 attacking players.

 

Keep them on (and make decent substitutions instead) and we still have a chance.

[TeamRocket]

This team. Would function better mangerless then have him!

Until next week, yes

[ealingfox]

Incredible how many people still don't get it.

 

Had people raging at me in another thread that it's physically possible for us to end up with worse owners if King Power go  not only is it bollocks but it's absolutely not a reason not to get rid.

 

We're not surviving if Toad and Smithers aren't forced out. Club needs cleansing from top to bottom.

 

[PhillippaT]

Well, I didn't miss anything while shopping then?  (Apart from Florist losing - shame it had to be Leeds  )

 

How far up the creek are we really?  

[foxile5]

We're going to be told to have patience with the style. 

 

Mark these words. 

 

 

[Joe_1992]

Clapped off though 

[mrsigns]

Its the worst goalkeeper and defence in our hisrory

 He's a grade A ****, and he was an absolute disgrace in terms of performances when he did play last year. You're clearly stuck in the past. I really don't understand people like you who'd rather scum like he succeed, whilst you're actively pleased if academy players don't work out.
