This results has got "are we really improving under sven" written all over it! :giggle:

Not good, obviously, Sven needs this transfer window quickly.

Hope the 'Sven out brigade' dont get their way, he's the right man for us, just needs to get his own players and improve away from home.

Pearson next up. :cry:

No wonder Kirkland has a bad back , keep picking the ball up out the back of the net

I had sent him glasses, back rub and a heat pad to assist but obviously got caught up in xmas post

Said it a few weeks back that IMO we needed just 2-3 players in August, Sousa came and went and all of a sudden last years entire squad is rated as shit by the new regime.

We are obsessed with fooking big name signings, we are big time charlies, clubs want to turn us over and we are now a mix of disgruntled players from last season and loanees who dont really give a shit.

Well said that man - the current situation sums up the whole of the Mandaric period - we arrogantly think we're a promotion/play off Championship team when recent history tells us we're nothing of the sort. While it may well be that compared to a decent Premiership side, Sven and Fazackerley have been relatively good at spotting problems - a defence unduly reliant on heavy midfield cover, a midfield lacking in mobility, an over-dependence on a big striker and a less than authoritative keeper, the truth is their solutions have undermined nearly all the pre-existing players while their replacements have simply introduced a new set of flaws. There are very few examples of a January spending spree turning round a season (and £12-million is hardly a spree - probably four decentish players) and I think the best we can hope for now is to avoid being dragged into a relegation dog fight - and this year it will be a fight.

So players with a proven track record in the Championship - Fryatt, Hobbs, Berner, Weale, Waghorn, Morrison - are more or less told they're not good enough either directly or by their place in the selection pecking order, while players like Vassell, Bednar, Davies, Cunningham, Vitor, Kirkland are favoured but look no better than the players they replaced. All came with big flashy reputations but to my eyes they're just flawed in different ways. I really think either Waghorn or Fryatt (if he was staying) are due an extended run up front but you know it won't happen because they haven't been signed by Sven off the back of his time as England or Man City coach.

We're absolutely rubbish. Completely disenfranchised. Nothing's working. I'm utterly disappointed and still can't get my head around the fact that our away record is so shit. Our back four's assisting Millwall with their goals, Morrison and Hobbs playing like amateurs (I think Morrison scored their second,) Kirkland too scared of the ball. Can't move the ball forward quick enough. Bednar a waste of space. First threatening action in Millwall's box after 40 minutes!!!

We're so shit, I can't believe it. It's as if as soon as they enter the team coach, they let go of all footballing abilities. Barnsley was just a blip.
