We seemed to struggle with the wind first half with underhit passes being the main feature. However having 2 up front does make a difference. I thought Rhodes and then Ward towards the end did an excellent job of coming deep into midfield to win the ball back. I'd say the aim of Fozzyball is to control the ball from the back and then create overloads going forwards. Rhodes and Ward are currently interchangeable but long term you can see how a strong quick striker like Simpson would cause loads of problems driving forwards. Also worth remembering that we are missing Kasumu, Tino, Hogg and Pearson. Arguably all 4 would have featured today. That's a good solid win. UTT

I'm still confused about what type of football Fotheringham wants us to play. Against Luton we looked to play through the thirds quickly. Today, we tried to play out from the back in the first half, but his post-match comments show he was unhappy with that. In the second half he clearly instructed the players to go longer with their passing and not to play out from the back. Is this how he wants us to play? I'd say that isn't how he wants to play but I'd hope from watching the first half he realised that even attempting to string more than two forward or sideways balls in our own half would be suicide I understand the concerns about playing in our own half, but I don't think we have the pace, power or physical presence in midfield or upfront to play a direct game like a Luton Town. When we launch it, it invariably comes straight back.

I'm sure nobody is disappointed with the scoreline but this just isn't enjoyable to watch at all. I've seen absolutely nothing to suggest we won't get relegated this season. Give the manager time get to the break out of the bottom 3 with some time to work out the wrinkles. Winning Ugly till then is ok

Might just be me but I didn't think Jackson had a particularly good game today. In the first half he seemed hesitant going forwards and a little lightweight for a defender.
Having said that I think had Nakayama not dwelled on the ball so much and looked to his left where Jackson always seemed to be in acres of space perhaps we could have been even more threatening going forwards.
We desperately miss Toffolo for me and top of the shopping list in Jan has to be a left back.
Not taking anything away from what I thought in all was a much more positive and morale boosting performance.

Shocking game between two poor teams. Maybe it's just me being a glass-half-full happy clapper, but I've really enjoyed today. We were a bit nervy in the first half and Hull look very much like a team under a caretaker, in fact they remind me of us under Schofield. They've had a few quick breaks that threatened to do us but they look low on confidence and a bit disjointed. If they hadn't mistakenly brought the Hull KR team they could have made things a bit more difficult. Second half we were much better, still plenty of work for Fozzy to do but we started the second half really well, and on another day could have won 4-0. Probably should have had a pen too, but we've already had our allotted single pen for the season. Ref was abysmal as usual, only upstaged by the lino in front of the Kilner who was making up the rules as he went along. Could have done with Hoggy putting an arm around Sorba and calming him down a bit, after he got fouled and the red mist descended. When Turton came on and gave him instructions from the bench, I think he also told him to chill out a bit. Not sure what problem the ref had with Yuta either, warning him for time wasting in the first half (but not doing the same to a couple of their lads who did far worse) and couldn't wait to show the card for a fairly innocuous foul. Worst from the lino was near the end, giving a corner instead of a free-kick when their lad hadn't got near the ball! Overall, not a vintage performance against a side seemingly in deeper sh*te than us, but a win is a win and that's all that matters right now. MF has instilled a bit of fight into the lads (maybe a little too much at times!) and if he'd said whatever he said at half-time at 11:30 instead we might have won by more... and also finished the game with 9 men! Was Thomas fouled? Looked to me like he bottled out of a ball which was 100% his when it left Mahoneys foot. He then feigned injury for 60 seconds leaving the team a man short and they almost scored. He then reacts like a muppet once back on the pitch. Just another typical Sorba moment

He hesitantly approached the ball, the Hull lad won it cleanly and Thomas just play acting

Can someone explain that when Yuta was given his totting-up booking, the ref quite clearly pointed back at what had been an incident in the corner 30 seconds earlier where Yutu had gone in aggressively and fairly, forced a throw-in (or Camara came away with it, can't remember), and neither the ref nor the lino gave it as a foul ? It was almost like he'd just got pissed off with Yuta and was after an excuse to book him, after that stupidness with the throw-in in the first half where he kept telling him to move about one foot. Seemed very poor referreeing today, very picky about things that don't matter, and not controlling the game with any authority at all really. That’s Tim Robinson, he’s an absolute wanker.

He then reacts like a muppet once back on the pitch. Just another typical Sorba moment It was right in front of where I sit and it looked a foul to me (though I am slightly biased of course). He's not the sharpest tool in the shed at times, but I don't get this "typical Sorba moment" stuff that so many come out with. At the start of this season he was having a bit of a dip in form (who wasn't?) and you could see it was getting to him a bit. To me, what others see as him "believing his own hype" I saw as frustration with himself when things didn't come off. We have to remember that two years ago he was in non-league having not been in a pro academy since he was 16, and now he's potentially off to a World Cup. It's bound to get to him, I think he needs an arm around him from an experienced pro, rather than pelters from the stands. That's just me though.

Is it just me or does Rhodes seem to have gained half a yard of pace? Thought he was excellent today. Plays very much like Harry Kane.
Kasumu for Rudoni next game and we are winning.

Crap game between 2 poor teams but we'll take the 3 points and a clean sheet, low quality stuff. 2nd half much better than first.

Thomas altered his run to make sure he didn't get there. Then went in half hearted. He wasn't fouled and just dangling a leg there like he did, leads to getting injured.

Didn't the first goal come from Rudoni chasing what seemed like a lost cause after he'd fucked up? A big change from the Schofield days for me was that although there were still mistakes, there was a determination to put them right.

Results are far more important than the performances while we are hanging around the relegation zone.
The quality, especially 1st half, was poor but the best bit is they all looked to be playing for MF.
Helik MOM for me, closely followed by Rhodes & Nakayama. I thought Camara was excellent 2nd half but was caught in possession too often 1st, though that may have been down to a lack of communication.
Town effort deserved the points & the more we win, the greater the confidence to play better football will grow.
Well done boys UTT

Maybe there isn’t one set method, maybe our type depends on the opposition. I’m not particularly arsed about having a certain style or identity, it’a a bit of a fad for me, personally, I’m more interested in results. Im not sure why managers/coaches have to be pigeon holed in to a ‘type’.

Winning is good, however it is achieved. Clean sheet likewise. Lots to work on undoubdetly..
Still not sure that running away if possession is lost is the best ploy.
Sorbas stupidity could have made a comfortable last 20 much less so. He wasnt fouled, he simply failed to move the ball and got tackled hard but fairly. What the fuck goes through his mind is a mystery at times.
Jordan did well, Danny not in the game much, Camara has to realise he hasnt got the time he would like and the rest have to up the tempo much more often in moving the ball and themselves up the pitch.
A reasonably comfortable if a bit dull, afternoon.

What I like is that we finally look like giving some of these young players a chance instead of watching the same players fail week after week. If they are good enough they are old enough.
Gradual introduction into the team will give them confidence and they will develop far quicker.
Fair play to the new manager.
2 up front too.. Good news when Simpson is fit.

I'd like to see Holmes trying a Tommy Cowan at Oakwell special, only needs a glance off a defender and it's a goal... Not that the clueless officials like we always seem to get would give it of course.
