Two games a week was what happened and flogging Madine to death because of it.
That game again Coventry where he was arguably out best player proves that when he plays well we play well.
We lost out on Bishop and Simms it was criminal that the club didn't try and get third or fourth choice as back up to Gaz he's the only one who can play up top in MA preferred 4-3-3 same goes for the RB farce which has happened two seasons in a row.
Yeah it was a good performance at cov, although it was them with that sickness bug, so there is that, but a win playing well is all we could do.
He was always going to be up against it but was just starting to win fans over after the nobbers game.
Then injuries plus suspensions, with Sat Tues and a threadbare squad. Sme suspensions were ridiculous and should have been overturned, but marv has had a few and gone backwards under him.
He was always a bit shaky on the ball but has looked a shadow of the player of the season.
We do seem to have a lack of discipline.
He was always going to be up against it, had to be backed and wasn't that well, although the loans won't be cheap and Wright at a rumoured 750k ish and Thompson unknown could push the cost for those 2 upto near a million.
We have the squad largely that stayed up comfortably, plus some other good talent, minus Bowler and Keogh. So not massively weaker on the whole, stronger in some areas
He had to do well and hasn't, there's been very little atmosphere since the board knew he was unpopular and appointed him anyway, then the bad situation were in, keeping him now is just depressing people, unless we suddenly win a few.
The touchline stillness etc is always over analysed when losing but he's not inspiring, he doesn't fit bfc fans who are passionate and like a manager like us to get us going, show that passion etc.
Just a predictable situation really if it went bad with what would happen and he also wasn't given the best chance. Given we had the Critchley cash and Bowler cash.
He hasn't helped himself either and the grimmy situation, rumors of fall outs etc, doesn't seem an inspiring leader... we don't seem a team that knows how to play effectively still and he has to do better with whatever we have.
Poor do all round.
