£12.6m as well 😂 

 

Total bombscare 

Not even bottom 5 transfers from Cooper and his merry men either.

[Derby Blue]

I think the most we can hope for this season is to put on 12 points more than the team who'll end in 21 place so when administration comes we won't be relegated yet again.

If you dominate possession it looks great because your wingbacks aren’t spending too much time defending deep in your own half - if, however, a team has a bit more about them, it can look very unbalanced at times.

 

Has Martin got the options to switch to a back four on the bench though? Burns at right back?

Ohora?

[l444ry]

Russell Martin: Overplaying again, you just wouldn't let it lie.

[Mrfox452]

Forgot this was an early kick off!

 

I take it we back to our usual bullshit?

We have gone back to slow walking football, no tempo.

 

Totally out worked.

We haven't though. We've been under the cosh the whole time so we've never had a chance to do that. Ball just keeps coming back so if anything, we should have been slowing it down to get ourselves back in it. There's never any safe options for the man on the ball, let alone a progressive one. Riis totally isolated so pumping it up to him is pointless 

 

Lundstram has been disgusting, so have Okoli and O'Hora. Yet again, the only threat is playing at wing back. This formation has to be played perfectly to work with the players we have. But don't worry, we've got lots of different options on the bench to change it up... Ah no, I'm mistaken.

[Phild]

Get the donkey up front and the donkey at the back off and we might have a glimmer of a point.

Absolutely shite and no way good enough to be doing that

What actually happens in TRAINING???

Just lacking any quality, energy, desire and dynamism, when you chuck, a mistake that has been repeated 10-20 this season already

Thats why we are off the pace 1-0 down

You'd think energy would be a given seeing as that's all Martin talks about in every single interview

What the **** are you lot moaning about? 
 

We won against Bromley FFS.

You jest but have a look at that Russell Martin has turned a corner thread. 

 

The bar for accountability is so low that bought quite a bit of wiggle room for him. 

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

I don't dislike Lundstram but he was signed to be a bit of steel and nous in exactly these sorts of games. All he's done so far is give the ball away, quietly putting in a 2/10 performance

 

Nothing to say about Okoli that hasn't already been said (dog shit) and if Luke Thomas could kick a ****ing football properly that Riis offside wouldn't matter.

[Ross 'LCFC' Turner]

That goal sums up modern day football and why it’s so crap.

 

Deluded managers, playing deluded football with brain dead footballers who can’t do it.

Today.

Other than when you were on hallucinogens 

[Noahfence]

We’ll win the odd game but we will never be consistent enough to go up

Agreed

Back to normality.

What positives?

The Alves-Braybrooke combo especially. 
 

We saw a couple of times in that half, Luton struggle to pick up the off the ball runs from Braybrooke and Doyle, that’s when we look the most dangerous imo.

[mozartfox]

BDCR to come on and turn the game.

Every team we play should play like that because it’s so obvious the defenders we have are so crap on the ball and can’t play this way 

Everytime Okoli has the ball he has to come back inside the pitch onto his right foot making us even easier to press. It’s painful.

Norwich away last season?

Could well be, nearly a year to the day

I'm more worried about us being consitant enough to stay up

[foxile5]

Why has the kick off time been put back six minutes? 

[AKCJ]

People saying Okoli off Kanga on…

 

great but what happens when it’s O’Hora’s time to **** about? Or Souttar’s?

 

Nothing changes until the entire club gets rid of this poisonous mentality of only ever playing with the ball with ****ing shite players 20 yards from our own goal. They are living in a fantasy and we have to fork out our good money to sit there and watch it every week.

[Blueman1967]

We have gone back to how we were, mad, the more direct, quicker ball, was working
