We all knew it was coming.
It’s our clsssic dogshit away performance. Start fairly brightly, couple of good situations wasted, start losing the ball cheaply, stop winning 2nd balls, create our own problems, look disinterested & then resort to pumping alehouse balls to strikers with nobody around them.
Add Leyton Orient to Lincoln, Wycombe, Cambridge, Burton, Port Vale, Cheltenham, Stevenage. People think we’re inconsistent but these have all been pretty much the same performances. Last night was just like Stevenage minus their directness.
When you couple the above with a Head Coach entrenched in a formation so badly that Matty Virtue has played right wing back & Callum Connolly is left centre half of a back 3 then you’ve got problems. The fact he’s been unable to change this approach is a
The substitutes made the team weaker which is completely bizarre chasing a game and also on the Head Coach.
We can talk about Tranmere “is the best place for Apter’s development” but there’s been at least 5 games since January where we could have brought him on with 30 mins to go to help US, especially when Dembele isn’t on it or tiring. It’s a like for like change and we know NC loves them.
That aside, we’ve got 11 games left and this is now the time to start prepping the squad for next season and clearing out some of the utter dross we have playing for us (even though we gave one of these a contract till 2026 back in December). If you can’t stay fit, if you’ve got the heart of pea or if you struggle to play football see you fuckin later. Get a few of the Academy lads involved cos I’m fucked if I can be arsed watching Matty Virtue breakthrough into a regular starting spot (6th season lucky).
Marv’s our best defender he’ll be off elsewhere for a better deal.
Connolly? His pace is decreasing by the days and when you didn’t have much he now looks like he’s running on the travelator on the Gladiators. I’m not actually ruling out that NC is picking him to activate him getting a new contract offer because I’m lost at why there would be any other reason, bar for him liking someone getting a customary yellow for a body check or being on the floor for a 1/4 of 90 mins. Casey missing makes it even stranger?
I’m not going to bother going through the rest of the squad but there’s some garbage & after Sadler’s interview I think it’s time that the recruitment and the Head Coach start earning their dough, as he’s trusting them with his lack of footballing acumen.
Most frustratingly, it wouldn’t have took that much to be right up there this season which is on par with our shitty short corners. Pack them in immediately
