mat_j101 Posted 2 December 2006 Share Posted 2 December 2006 Im not posting this to rant about Kelly out, but i think two decisions today were wrong and had a big influence on the game. First, Tiatto off at 1/2 time was wrong. He was doing well at defensive mid, and i have to think he might have been there to make the tackle for Wed's 3+4 goals - the outside the box shots. I heard someone say he was winded from the block he made from their freekick, but surely you recover from being winded in a few mins. Second, throwing McAuley on as soon as McCarthy got sent off was far to reactionary. If we were one up, fair enough - protect the lead. We were one nil DOWN! He should have left three at the back and carried on with 4 in midfield and 2 up front. Whats the point in sitting when we're down? At least leave it for 5/10 mins to see how it goes. I just thought both these decisions were wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mat_j101 Posted 2 December 2006 Author Share Posted 2 December 2006 i agree two poor decisions also williams didnt have the best of games either Yeah i agree. Although i said before the match i hoped he would get a run out, but it would have made sense to bring Hughes off - like for like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Posted 2 December 2006 Share Posted 2 December 2006 i agree two poor decisions also williams didnt have the best of games either His first game in 6 weeks mate. Give him time to settle. Another poor decison - starting Josh Low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Posted 2 December 2006 Share Posted 2 December 2006 Yeah i agree. Although i said before the match i hoped he would get a run out, but it would have made sense to bring Hughes off - like for like. Our best player today IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micky Posted 2 December 2006 Share Posted 2 December 2006 I'd say a poor team cost us the game and at this rate is going to cost us our league status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mat_j101 Posted 2 December 2006 Author Share Posted 2 December 2006 Our best player today IMO. Yeah possibly, although i thought Porter was good too. But the point is if he really really wanted to bring Williams off, he should have just made a straight swap, instead of Tiatto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reynard Posted 2 December 2006 Share Posted 2 December 2006 Our best player today IMO. agree hughes was possibly our best player today. surely the sub sould have been williams for low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fez of Mahrez Posted 2 December 2006 Share Posted 2 December 2006 The bit about McCarthy being sent off and McAuley coming straight on - if we'd conceded a couple of goals straight after the red card having not brought McAuley on, people would have been even more livid.

Dr The Singh Posted 2 December 2006 Share Posted 2 December 2006 The bad decisions saved RK, IMO!! They gave RK some excuse and abit of sympathy, if we were 10 men and no penalty, there would be no chance of RK remaining!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davieG Posted 2 December 2006 Share Posted 2 December 2006 I would have said the corner that wasn't that led to the penalty that was dubious to say the least and secondly McCarthy's decision to behave like a spoilt brat, for which he should receive the maximum allowable punishment from the club. Oh how people can actaully applaud such childish behaviour from our captain is beyond my comprehension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on Davie, you know we have some right trumpeters in our support, they haven't got the foggiest. They are the Stepford Fans who don't complain about anything, the ones Dim Tim and Ronald McDonald love so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daggers Posted 2 December 2006 Share Posted 2 December 2006 There was only one bad decision made today, and I've seen it made at every home game this season apart from Southampton. I made the choice to go. If it wasn't the lure of copious alcohol at the next one there isn't a hope in ****ing hell that I'd be going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe. Posted 2 December 2006 Share Posted 2 December 2006 i could not belive people were clapping him off why do fans want to clap a player off who arguably cost us the game Because you have to stick by your players. Yes he did his usual thing of being a complete idiot but you still have to stick by your team through thick and thin. It's what being a fan is all about.

Why do the same fans boo individual players and the team? At least when a player is shit e.g. Low, Johnson et al it's because they can't help it where as McCarthy's stupidity is self inflicted.
