And just to clarify mate, because you clearly know bugger all about football, dropping points at Wolves isn't embarrassing. Wolves have now beaten every team that got relegated from last seasons Premier League, two teams who finished higher than us in fact.

Point away from home would have been fine. Unlucky with an injury time own goal that unless I'm mistaken Ole couldn't plan for. :roll:

To be fair one of those teams is going to drop straight through this division.....and Im not on about you or norwich.

He has a point, Why drop Jones, why drop Brayford, why play Connaley at full back when he has been our best centre half season. Jones changed the game when he came on. Ole has to find a settled side quickly and stop messing around with the line up :evil:

Radcliffe reckoned it was a great save by the Keeper ?

I don't think he has expanded on his comments... Ole has played 4-4-2 a diamond formation and now 3-5-2... I don t think the players even know what's happening... we haven t seen any good football... we were dominated at Blackburn and looked boring...Huddersfield was a bit better...ole admitted we didn t play well against Wigan and today we sat back...there was was no closing them down.... he has to sort out his best side and stop all the changing around...

We lose our first game of the season and fans want Ole out. Amazing. Fulham have lost four on the bounce, I think they have a reason to be pessimistic. When we have 7/12 points, that's acceptable. Our fans are actual morons.

yes but if jones put ball either side keeper from 8yds its a goal, he hit strait at him and he reacted accordingly :thumbup:

I can see why he swapped Hudson for Brayford and put Connolly at right back, as he tried to stop their best player Bakary Sako from influencing the games as much, which i think the change did pay off, obviously there was nothing that anybody could of done for the own goal. But, i cannot believe he swapped our best player at the moment this season - Kenwyne Jones, for Le Fondre. You could argue that Jones has been the best striker in the division so far and i really think we would have been much better in the first half if Jones had of started. The change cannot be down to tiredness or he needed a rest, yes he has played in his third match in a week but Jones has been substituted in the last two games with at least 20 mins left in each half. I would have taken a point at the beginning of the match as Wolves are very goid at home, but with the quality of our squad we should be playing a much better level of performance.

I think we should give Ole time, but if by December we are around 10th in the league and Pulis is still looking for work then we really should think about a change in manager.

I said it at the start of the season, and also after we strengthed more with the signings of Morrison and Pilkington, that if we were to miss out on Promotion automatically or via the play-offs, then the only reason would be because of the manager. As any manager at this level would give their right arm to have the quality of squad that Ole has at his disposal. I do think his decision making, tactics and his chopping and changing of players. Even after winning our previous game(s). Every person in the whole world, whether they are a fan or an employee of a football club know, that you never change a winning side. Unless of course there are injuries.

For now Ole has got my support but he must stop tinkering with the side and give the players chance to settle down and gel together. Cause they never will if the personnel continue to change game after game.

Bloooooobirds.

Tan does not want Pulis' style of football. Fans need to stop assuming Pulis is waiting in the wings, because he isn't.

other point is do these fans expect pulis to keep the players ole signed? because most dont fit into pulis methology of playing so be back square one new side, but wait only 1week to end transfer window so pulis stuck with a side he doesnt want? :roll:

Re: Time up for the tinker man?

It seems to me he is to afraid to go for it away from home for some reason. I would have kept Brayford, not messed with the back 4 at all whether Hudson or Morrison is going to be the preferred starter. I would never have used Gunnarsson as a nr.10, because his passing game is not good enough. I would have used Jones due to his arial threat. I would have dropped Maynard (loaned him out), as he is the least exciting of the 5 strikers. I would considered dropping Whittingham for this game,if some were to be rested. I would also have stressed to move the ball around faster, and promoted some pacy counterattacks involving full backs. But I am not the manager though, hope Ole knows what he is doing.

Although wolves lost to Rotherham..


We made an error today in the team selection and set up, ole needs to learn from this.

Hudson shouldn't have been selected today and the back 4 should av remained unchanged in my opinion.

We also need to look at where to accommodate whitts as he is no good when moved out to the left.

This dazza is a massive anti tan and although i've hated what Tan has done there are some just waiting for any bad result to sprout bollox. There are some so called cardiff fans wanting us to fail. First defeat from an injury time own goal. Get fucked :|

Some very good points (if i may say so). Dropping Brayford & Jones was very puzzling, & im not a big fan of Maynard either.

Le Fondre has hardly hit the ground running, & as for our mid field, it a bit "Status Quo",,,,hardly Rocking All Over The World!
