Watching Burnley last night and how their huge CHs play, how the chuffed is Nartey still at Burnley, he's nothing like a Dyche CH.
As a former Spireite I think he knew exactly what he was sending us
Walton Stag wrote:The team that Lifestags suggests is on the right lines for me but I think we need to protect the right flank better. Bowery playing out wide on the left gives good cover but the right side with Sinclair in front of Gordon is again fragile. It would be a similar situation if Charsley was selected in place of Sinclair. I would like to see James Clarke given a game at right back with Gordon in front of him. I think that is more defensively solid and will stop teams putting balls in to the massive gaps that appear behind our full backs at times.

He said that last week

He did also say, "we've been saying this every week" Watch the full interview.

Well he’s obviously not doing a very good job at it.
How to take over a dreadful defence, have 2 transfer windows and successfully make it worse.
That’s a special effort.

Yawn.. stating the obvious is getting boring now. You going to be silent if we win and keep clean sheet? Nothing to moan about anymore?

What a thoroughly lazy post when facts are stated. Maybe you should read up more on things before you make another lazy post, the one where i’ve said who’s to say we might do well this season before everyone writes us off - and look what happened when we last won the league, or is it too convenient not to mention that?
He’s been saying it every week? well we conceded in every game, it’s hardly working is it? christ why would i need to see an interview to listen to a manger (any manager) say they want a clean sheet, well dur, hello - obviously
In a way i wish you were right as you see the good in everything and seem very much a happy clapper - you still believed at 2-0 on saturday something would happen when it would have only took (sadly) another defensive gooseberry up to go further behind - I can’t criticise your approach as it’s kinda cute in a way, simple but cute.
the “yawn” is for us all, no-one wants yet another season of this raspberrys, but putting your head in the sand like you appear to do is no more useful than criticising them.
adamstag wrote:Actually rob i’ve said all along he should be given at least 2 seasons here which needs to happen. for me this season is about stability, a top half finish if possible and push on. Those expecting promotion this season appear to be sadly wide of the mark. As i mentioned under the thread “our manager” we won’t ever have a manager as good - and clough is everything that odious clown evans isnt, and thank the lord for that. (which isn’t noted in your post)
I did think at the back end of last season given the form and players we might do well this season, which is entirely plausible - which i made when i noted how we started the season when we won the conference (which of course conveniently isn’t mentioned).
In this instance though i’ve said what EVERYONE has said in such that sadly he appears to have cocked up the transfer policy again and we’ve actually been left with a defence currently seemingly worse than last season - i mean when clough himself has admitted our best CB option this weekend is a forward…..
We’ve improved the GK and forward options well, the midfield hasn’t maybe quite done as well as hoped and we’re all well aware about the defence.
If we manage to make the playoffs this season amazing, but a top half finish pushing on would do me just grand.
