Really hope there's no L***s backlash from last night. Was anticipating a heavy defeat anyway, but if they're pissed off? Dreading Saturday when normally I look forward to the familial banter

It’s so frustrating that the majority of fans predicted this struggle when the transfer ended. For warnock to then be sacked just compounding the mess we are in.
Who is this Cartwright fella ? Is he the one advising Nagle. ?

Zonal marking? why were Town defenders marking the zones their strikers were not in?

My biggest concern is how far Moore doesn’t seem to be able to organise us defensively. We have created chances and a better forward would have scored quite a few but teams can just walk through us with little resistance. Even with three Centre halves on we don’t seem to be able to defend crosses. Given Moore was a defender it’s surprising but until we get that solidity all I can see are losses with the occasional game against teams that can’t score Has DM changed us from man marking to zonal marking as alluded to on anther thread? It will take some getting used to and would explain a lot. A bloke next to me pointed it out last Saturday. It looks like it.

Leeds looked pretty average last night but I still think they'll give us a slapping.
3-0.

It just looks a mess and for the life of me, I cannot remember his set up at Sheff W and West Brom. It strikes me as a bonkers thing to try when it was an area of strength for us for a while.

It strikes me as a bonkers thing to try when it was an area of strength for us for a while. Maybe the theory is if you’re more fluid in defence it frees up bodies to join the attack. It is frustrating how in recent years we always bring everyone back to defend. It’s possibly been out of necessity though.

Whilst I hope we do not get a thumping and it’s a closely fought local derby , I worry we could be again on the wrong end of a thrashing if Leeds convert their chances. For me we have little championship quality players with Nichol, Helik, Rudoni and Sorba ( when on his game) being the few who other teams would want. Sadly Hogg for me has lost his pace and resorts to fouling and gaining yellow cards whilst in the past he could have got around players to make a hard but fair tackle. The rest for me are inconsistent and more liable to make errors which cost us goals. Clearly we now have an issue defending set pieces and stopping crosses coming into the box. We seem to have lost the ability to compete in midfield with players looking lost and our front two isolated with the odd speculative long ball being sent their way. Warnock seemed to have the ability to get every last ounce of effort from players in order to close down threats. Leeds obviously we’re poor last night however had their chances to at least get a draw with Bamfords penalty being an absolute howler. Let’s hope it they have another such game as I hate going to games where you are goaded by the home fans for being an easy touch. UTT

It looks like it. Would explain a lot and if it's true I'm afraid it doesn't paint DM in a good light. You don't just go changing shit like that mid season on a whim when the defence has been pretty solid. You'd surely make small incremental changes in order to get results even if it didn't fit your usual style.

We won’t exploit this blue print you mention. We look absolutely clueless defensively, and even more clueless putting the ball in the net. I fear another drubbing.

Will get beat with the run everytime. Whereas man marking, can you see Helik and Pearson missing many aerial battles? Weird thing from Moore.

Is he the one advising Nagle. ? The Director of Football he brought in, he knew him from the league Sacramento play in. Fat lad, ex Halifax goalie and was at Stoke (doesn't get a good write up from Chadders and his mates) I seem to remember Chadders not being that critical of him. As for the others on social media, if you do a comparison, DATM rarely says anything good about departing senior staff. The vocal ones, or the ones who post, are usually the armchair critics.

Stoke fans didn't rate him, that was the overriding sentiment at the time he was hired. He's also been away from proper competitive football for quite a long time which can't help. Worked with the USL, known by Edwards, hence the appointment.
