Adver News: Wilson slams referee Kettle

[Iffy's Onion Bhaji]

we're getting dull and shit this season

We certainly did on Saturday.

I've never quite understood the love in towards Wise, it's been fairly apparent since that the brains behind the combination was Poyet.

If we'd started the season with Sturrock we'd have won it to.

Those two home defeats with Ady Williams in charge was the difference between Champions and 3rd place.

Good players are good players, no matter how many times you sign them. I've already said I'll take boring tactics if we win.

After Reading Roberts book, Sturrock was old school and changed everything what Wise did. Fitness and eating went out the window. Peacock & Roberts move to midfield was stupid (as they were labelled the best strike force in the Division and scoring)  Sturrock got us over the line, just.

Wilson is a decent manager....thing is he has to put round pegs in square holes a lot of the time.
He needs to be given a half decent transfer kitty.....dont need to break the bank but we need to buy some quality in its as simple as that.
We have some real quality players at the club...we just need a few more!

Who have we spent money on, is it just Ferry and Caddis?

I wonder if you compared transfers spent this season/summer where we'd be in the league. That would be a fair way to see how decent hit transfer kitty really has been.

Maybe the fitness stuff, but the defensive line-up of the team was straight out of the Wimbledon book - little width, pressure the 30 yard square around where the ball is currently (hence you'd see the left winger right over into the middle of the pitch when it was down our right and people would knock Monkhouse).  The idea behind this is that even if a perfect cross field ball is played, it takes so long to get to the player that you can re-group and by pressuring the player with the ball and cutting off short balls, the long one becomes much more pressured.

It's one of the rare times, in the past 15 years, that I've been able to really spot a "style" of play from us.  Not since Hoddle in fact, even if they were very different.
