Foxdiamond Posted 6 September Posted 6 September Fearful of getting walloped at Stockport. Crying out loud. What does the club actually expect and what is the deadline when clear improvement for all to see? 1
eddylcfc Posted 6 September Posted 6 September None of them deserved to be selected after yesterday but this is the best I can muster. Mccarthy JJ Faes Kanga Aluko Braybrooke Lundstram Howell Page Alves Bristric 2

Gloria Posted 6 September Posted 6 September The Martin post-match interview is truly gobsmacking. It's fair to say the next lineup will have a far older average age. I suspect we already know the answer as to whether he changes anything about his own approach... 1
KrefelderFox666 Posted 6 September Posted 6 September Stockport are doing well so in theory this ends in a hiding for us. Can see a Stockport 3/4-1 win.
CosbehFox Posted 6 September Posted 6 September Anyone going Stockport is a proper decent town in the centre. Great pubs; a lot of independent shops, a brilliant market hall. Don’t go Edgeley and expect it to be any good. Go into Stockport
KFS Posted 6 September Posted 6 September 2 hours ago, LFC bear said: Rangers fan here. The fun with EL Veggie is just starting. And J Lundstrum won't save this shit show I'm afraid. He's OK but at this point of his career I don't see him carrying a struggling League 1 Leicester who only 4 x years ago played Roma in a European semi. This will end a high score home win for the hosts. You’ve got a raging hard on about this and it’s really weird 1

Mark 'expert' Lawrenson Posted 6 September Posted 6 September As we’re away I’ll go for just the 62% possession and a 3-0 defeat. Martin will take positives from the possession stat. 2

Salieri Posted 6 September Posted 6 September Mccarthy JJ O’Hora Kanga Aluko Braybrooke Lundstram Howell Page Alves Riis I’d go with that, not that it matters as we’re ****ed as long as this charlatan is in charge 🤡 1
lgfualol Posted 6 September Posted 6 September They will be absolutely fired up for this and we’ll be trying to tap it around the back under immense pressure. This could really be a spanking for the ages. 1
eddylcfc Posted 6 September Posted 6 September 2 hours ago, Muzzy_no7 said: What’s your reasoning for Faes ahead of O’Hora or even still Souttar? O’Hora is a complete unknown and Souttar has been abysmal. Faes has left plenty of scar tissue but I find it hard to believe he cannot dominate at this level if his head is right. He’s probably a million miles off being mentally prepared but I’d be willing to take the gamble. To be honest - I can’t believe I would be picking him but that’s how much of a shambles this football club is right now. The issue is whoever he selects will probably bring the same results given the style of play and tactics. 1
StanSP Posted 6 September Posted 6 September I mean this in all seriousness, but it wouldn't surprise me if this ends up as another 4-0 loss, or even 5-0. We've been 'found out' far earlier than Martin would have ever expected. And it's so easy to play against us. Looking back, I thought the Plymouth game was a good performance. Now I think we were just fortunate their 20-min high press didn't work out for them. It's all teams have to do. Press high, and it pays off if you score first against us. Because that's pretty much job done for opposition who can just sit back and hit us on the counter. So predictable yet the one man who has control and ability to change it, won't do so. And that's as frustrating as the performances and the predicament we find ourselves in. Managers should not be as stubborn as he is. A Russell Martin team doesn't recover from a 4-0 loss straight away. Because he'll insist on playing the exact same way that got us there in the hope it works, not because there's any tangible reason it will. Same shit, different day. 1
murphy Posted 6 September Posted 6 September I actually think we might get something here. S draw or something. Stockport, riding high, might fancy their chances, especially at home and allow us a bit of space. It's the mid table clubs that are dangerous. They will park the bus and let us play in front of them and just pick us off. If Stockport are smart, they'll do the same.
harpendenfox Posted 6 September Posted 6 September What will the ‘learning’ be this week for the Brentmesiter General?
J.Lisemore Posted 6 September Posted 6 September They press us, we make a mistake, they score. Rinse and repeat. Could and probably should be 4 or 5.
Gazza M Posted 6 September Posted 6 September Never understand why manager after manager always fail to address a lack of goal chances by not going two up top. Lets give it a try and keep the bloody ball in the opposition half Martin you prat! Nothing wrong with a diagonal or two being direct. Mccarthy Aluko Souttar Ohora Mcfarlanne Braybrooke Howell Page Alves Bristic Riis 2
ARM1968 Posted 6 September Posted 6 September We’ll lose. Probably by a couple of goals. Likely win the possession game as usual. 1

Well as long as we get 65% possession we can get to say we dominated the game . . . Sideways and backwards everywhere we go the most boring insipid football I've ever seen 1
Leicesterpool Posted 6 September Posted 6 September 0-2 defeat in coming with both goals coming in the first half.
James and his giant peach Posted 6 September Posted 6 September The epitome of our demise is that we are now viewing Stockport County away as an almost certain loss and a really hard game. Get your head around that! Stockport. Stockport County!!! 4
