Why do you want to get one of our strikers back when they're both useless.

“Its time for the players to stand up.?”
Absolutely. But maybe the spine of the team needs strengthening. We seem to have moved away from signing players with leadership mentalities. Lots of players with good potential but we need a few more captains to get the best out of them.
I don’t see any leadership on the pitch other than the aging Hogg.
None of the players are stepping up and bollocking each other when needed or encouraging each other.
I’m very disappointed in Lee Nicholls for an experienced GK he really needs to be organising the defence of his goal better. You can drop him for the next match imo.
Hogg suspended now?
Absolute shite. Players need to step up.

You can't legislate for some of the mistakes players are making - Burzorg & Rudoni missing easy chances against WBA. Or some of the poor defending in recent games or the lack of urgency against Cardiff. Whilst Moore was a disasterous appointment the painful truth is that the players have been poor at key moments in games all season

Yet another I'm drunk and need attention post. You come across as a spoilt and self-important child Not at all Mr Personality. Slightly slanderous Pete but I know you have no decent opinion or sense of humour. You are happy with ; Lack of ball retention? Constant injuries ? Failure to pass three yards ? Failure to pass to your own man, whilst in the final third ? Failure to score from so many decent positions - rudhoni? Obvious reply Pete to a genuine question. Pete along with with his Iberian mate would have stuck with Darren Moore, that's all you need to know!

Halfway through the first half Headley failed - whilst unchallenged - to pass to Della. He was 3 yards away. So far ive given, Warnock, Cartwright, Nagle & Moore lots of stick. But just a minute these players are supposed to be professionals. Who is up for the fight ? Who wants to stay "injured"... Maybe its time to let them know, their mistakes, lack of concentration etc simply isn't just the managers fault. ? Only thing it's 'time' for, is you to delete your account.

Some of the squad aren’t up to the level needed for the championship.
Many are young players who are on sharp learning curves at a level that exposes mistakes in seconds.
Some of the squad are what is needed but are aging and can’t carry those that aren’t up to scratch.
Some are top level championship players who would walk into a lot of other teams .
I’ve yet to see one player this season appear to be a bad egg or consistently unprofessional . Some may sulk time to time and others let the side down once or twice but this squad is leaps above last years and all seem to be working on the common goal to keep us in the league and push on next year.
Keep the faith and up the town

Well tbf 3 is some Just be glad he didn't say loads I think the fact that baring one season under a genius (who himself struggled in his first season), we have struggled for six years under a total of eight permanent managers (nine if you include Breitenreiter) and another three caretaker managers, perhaps tells you that the players just aren't and haven't been very good. Perhaps the policy of signing free transfers, injured players, ex players and throwing Academy players in just hasn't worked. In the last two years, we've now had six managers, four in the last 13 months and yet the results or more-or-less the same, barring a freak period under Warnock. Perhaps the players ought to look in the mirror.

IE Wardy suddenly being fit enough to play every game under King Colin, NW goes and suddenly he's constantly injured again.

The thread/poll is ridiculous and to be honest embarassing. Yeah OK they haven't been very good for the majority of the season, but come on, this is just silly.

Not many in support of my thread.
Maybe the options weren’t the best, but it is time for the players to stand up.
I’m not expecting prem quality but our ability to pass better in the final third has to improve. At times I feel like they just panic.
Maybe it’s the quality of the players? Mooy could have 3 players around him and somehow emerge with it and then play a quality pass. We have missed that sort of player since he left. (Obvs Dunc)…

If it's the incident I remember, Headley clearly thought that Burgzorg was going to make a run and played it into space? He didn't thus it went out of play🤷🏼
Context is everything!!

Dont read it then, dont reply, maybe get an informed opinion ? or just carry on being an obvious Melt ? You decide. When you have 15 posts in a thread you created within a few hours, I wouldn't be calling others 'an obvious melt' TBF, I do somewhat agree with your sentiment. The players DO need to stand up. However, I think there has been an a huge improvement since Moore has gone. I'd like to see Matos start more, and I'm interested to see what Balker can add and hopefully we get one of our strikers back Yes I did have a rant. It was fuelled by something i had heard that day. Why did Warnock keep us up? Mostly because he worked out which players were up for a fight and those that just wanted to lie on the physio’s bed.

No it wasn’t that one. Burzorg was three yards away. Headley passed it into touch. Just slack. Lack of concentration and composure.

Its absolutely time for the players to stand up......but
1. They arent really that good as a squad. The recent seasons tell us that - lees, hogg, ward are ageing but we dont have any better really. 2. The legs and energy toffolo and obrien gave us under CC havent been replaced adequately. Rudoni and headley have talent but not in same league currently. 3. Our striker recruitment has been a mix of bizarre and dreadful. Unless we get better we will struggle. 4. Weve had some truly shocking managerial appts. DM could barely string a coherent sentence together and MF resembled rab nesbitt in a comedy parody of football mgmt.
We are in trouble this time - theres no warnock cajoling us over the line and the players simply have to do better starting tmoro.

Whilst Moore was a disasterous appointment the painful truth is that the players have been poor at key moments in games all season Agree with this although I can’t help but wonder where we’d be now had Warnock been allowed to carry on. He had the backing of the players and he was getting more out of them than probably anyone expected with a January transfer window to come. We made the frankly disastrous decision to relieve him of his duties, replace him with a total dud of a football “manager” and then waited an age to fire him. If we go down, it will be in the main because of these bizarre decisions and whoever was responsible should carry the can. And the original post was written by someone on a drunken tirade although I see he has backdowned somewhat since.
