I remember being kept over at Bramall Lane for 30 mins in 89/90ish,and the announcer said "sorry for keeping you so long...but we're not sorry you lost"!! (We lost 5-1 and i think Andy May scored an goal If I remember right!! It was common to keep away fans in after the game back then. I do recall the announcer having a dig at Bramall Lane. I thought Marsden scored that day? Possibly.ive just found it on YouTube but it doesn't show Town's goal or our own goal just their goals. Bryson and Deane scored (Agana played too),but I had it my head that May scored an owngoal,could be wrong though it was back in 1989 after all!!! Lol

Lol I remember going there in the mid 80's (miners strike era), we won, they missed a pen near the end. They kept us in and when they let us out it seemed like all their fans were waiting for us.

The worrying aspect about yesterday for me was.. He thought koroma..who’s a right footed forward who’s played the last few games as one of a front 2/3.. was our best option for lwb.. Despite headley Jackson and Yuta being on the bench.. All 3 having played multiple games in that position.. Koroma never played there.. 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ Mind bogglingly bizarre decision.. Can’t get my head around it at all.. 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️

Can’t get my head around it at all.. 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ Apparently it gave the team “balance” according to to DM. The idea with wing backs is to get down the flanks and get crosses in. Sorba tried and did that, JK doesn’t do that because he’s 95% right footed and looks to cut in the vast majority of times. So it totally unbalanced the formation. DM made a big point in his radio Leeds interview of the fact he likes players to be able to play more than one position. Get ready for lots more square pegs being hammered into round holes.

I saw the line up and thought it was strange given the LWB options on the bench. However, I thought Moore was wanting us to be on the front foot and be on the offensive with the wing backs pushed high up the pitch.
You could argue that it worked on the right....Thomas assist for the second? But it certainly wasn't working on the left with Koroma and it was plain to see.
My biggest concern was that it took Moore so long to change it when it obviously wasn't working. Koroma ended up playing more like a LB....and we've got 3 x LB's on the bench?!!
Similar with Burgzorg, he was killing us in the second half, continually giving the ball away but played 80+ minutes.

If he starts him there again I have real concerns about his judgment of player’s strengths and weaknesses

The inquest and the changes needed to be made on 35 mins or ht at the latest.

I’m sorry but this is Darren’s brand of football, it’s not going to be exciting it’s not going to get fans off their seats. Will it keep us up maybe? But what’s the longevity to it? Not sure.
The biggest elephant in the room is Cartwright who watched Darren Moore sides play and then came up some absolute rubbish introducing him that it will be attacking football. That’s the bigger concern.

It’ll get fans off their seats right enough, straight down the steps and out the fucking gates and not back again.

It's worrying that he doesn't know what to do with Koroma. As an attacking left winger he is one of our best players when full of confidence. Shoehorning him into a leftback position then subbing him off will destroy all of the hard work that Warnock did with him.
2 weeks on the training field and that was the display. Doesn't fill you with confidence.
