We've gone to the worst championship side for a number of years and started with 7 defensive outfield players. It absolutely boggles the mind that we've managed to appoint another manager who doesn't actually play the attacking football the board has been desperately searching for. Funnily enough one fell in to their lap from the academy who actually did get us playing front foot football and they didn't stick with it Who is/was that? š¤ |

I no? ffs And itās Our not are. Not being pedantic, just want to read stuff that makes sense. If we're going to be pedantic I'd like to point out that there's no capital O in "our". It was emphasising the point..... or maybe not. Take your pick. |

We just had to go for it. Playing a back 5 is fucking stupid against the worst team in the league. It doesn't take too many brains to put Rudoni back as a box to box midfielder when Wiles came on who has only played well as a number 10. The ref was dogshit even though Sorba's sending off was one. Bringing on Ward and Koroma was an incredibly easy decision and that needed to happen no later than 70 minutes. This turns Coventry into almost a must winNot a snowballs chance in hell of that if Coventry are rockin into Premier League 9th place Wolves and winning... But you know what - Itās Town so anything is possible... But much as Iād love a point v Cov - I just cannot see it happening sadly ! ā¹ļø |

Why are we playing left footed Rudoni on the right and right footed Kasumo on the left ? why was Thomas in the middle? Why was we swinging crosses into absolutely no one? Why was the next sub after being a man down for over half an hour Tom Edwards in stoppage time? So many questions all lead to Andre and Iām afraid heās blown it for me and alot of town fans, I wish he could manage half as good as he talked when he got the job. |

Why are we playing 5-3-2 away at Rotherham, three centre backs to mark Charlie Wyke whoās league one at best. After getting tactically schooled by Corberan last week Iām worrying already. Surely he canāt be that bad? Heās won the Swiss league with Zurich and got paderborn to the bundesliga. His CV speaks for itself so itās even more baffling. Hopefully we stay up and he gets players he has more trust in/are more capable controlling games at this level. Worthy would have played 4-3-3 today and had a go and heās our academy manager youād just hope Andre would have a bit more about him. Again hopefully he will in time but itās definitely worrying. |

What an absolute shitshow today. Wrong team to start with and the complete lack of any meaningful subs today was very worrying. we effectively went down to 10 men at half time by bringing Wiles on. What has Matos done wrong? all 3 games we have won since Moore left he has started

Naturally, Iām disappointed we didnāt beat that bunch of gypos 4-0. I expected better but some of the reaction is poor. Iāve seen fans calling for Andreās head,  ? I get that some of the line ups and subs donāt always make sense but we are seeing the same underperforming players week in week out for the last 2 seasons now. Owners have got it wrong and still are (season card prices will be the next thing no doubt), directors of football and chief executives, even the several managers weāve had but the one continuous failure in all this is the players. Iām fucking sick of seeing these lot get away with it with their ill disciplined, unprofessional, gutless, feckless care free performances. Them players are where anger should be directed at, because they sure as fuck arenāt giving Andre and us their all. |

A break and 13 days before the next (v tough) match. Hopefully AB has the squad in every day and uses this time to refresh them and implement some good ideas. We need to start a run of form. I like the breaks more than the games to be honest |

Thought tactically today heās got it all badly wrong, not sure what the 5-3-2 obsession is when we donāt have the players to fit that system as JW showed us going 4ā3-3. Fingers crossed the next two weeks gives him chance to implement something a little different and not predictable but agree with you the players are limited as f***. |

Think a lot of town fans knew today was going to be a close nil nil or a close ne nill victory . Rotherham donāt lose at home by more than one goal ( or at least rarely) . We havenāt got enough class infront of goal to be too much of a danger to any team in this division.
People having a go at the manager are unbelievably impatient. The team isnwjere it should be fighting off relegation. Give AB a decent crack if we go down let him re build , we as a fan base just need more realistic thoughts until changes are made.

Yep the lad hasnāt played well today. His dilly dallying on the edge of box nearly cost us when they hit the post early on, needs to start participating more than he does, gets away with it due to him being a fans favourite, but he needs to add more to his game currently. |

They were always going to be a tough nut defensively today. After two shellackings in a row, they were playing for pride. Back to basics, keep it tight, defend for lives, don't give anything away. T'was ever thus. And I completely agree with that second paragraph. You can't turn on a manager after 5 games and he's not revolutionised a club from top to bottom in a new league and new country. The impatience with football fans gets ridiculous. It isn't even like in said 5 games we have been outclassed, 20 minutes against West Brom aside. Better finishing against Cardiff, you're talking about at least a point. Linesman puts his flag up in time and the ref spots a foul against West Brom, potential different outcome. Penalty given today and nerves settle and it's a different game. The uncontrollables for a manager are as important as the controllables, and he's unfortunately arrived at a time when the club is unlucky in those uncontrollables. Equally, he can have the perfect plan, but if a player misses a sitter or has a rush of blood to the head, it's hardly at his door. |

The thing is if he knows we just need to stay up and change things next season to make us a better long term prospect why not just stick with the system and method Worthie employed? I know it is much easier to get them fired up for just a few games but he did that. They looked to get some confidence back and be willing to have a go. They look nervous again now. Why is that? |
