A Few Observations

Watching the game tonight, it's the most concerned i have been yet. I think Whitts has been a superb servant to this football club and if anyone deserves some loyalty in return it's him, but i do think watching him tonight that the time has definitely come to give the lad a rest. He has been poor for a while now but tonight was the first time in all those games where he has gone hiding. And that's what he did tonight, he hid! In the first half there was one occasion in particular when a massive gap opened up for him and instead of driving into that gap he slowed down and waited for the play to catch up with him. I couldn't believe what i was seeing. It's all well and good saying that whitts can control the pace of the game but it shouldn't always be to slow the game down!!! It saddens me to see the best player in the championship reduced to the level of danny drinkwater!


Secondly, i think the young lad Nugent could be ruined if he is forced in for the run in and things go tits up. He is young and i dont think he is the most gifted player we have, but when he had the ball at his feet tonight you could feel the tension from the crowd. He is certainly not a footballing centre half and i think it's dangerous throwing him in the deep end for the run in.

Thirdly, has Kim Jong Un kidnapped Kimbo and Malky is not telling us?!

Fourthly, I think we need to exploit the loan market before it closes and i think we need to go back to basics. We have opened up more lately and it clearly hasn't worked. I believe we need to go back to basics on saturday. Personally i'd take out Smith and Whitts and put in Mutch and Kimbo in a 4-5-1 with Kimbo at the top of the midfield three behind Campbell. I don't think Malky will take out Whitts though and if mutch isn't fit we need to bring cowie back into a 5 man midfield to give us a bit of energy.

Lastly, i'm glad we're away the next two games. Hopefully this will take some pressure off and we can grab at least 4 point from our next two games.

Id like to know what the messiah works on on the training pitch because we have no playing style / system whatsoever.

Why the fook he persisted with Smith who was dog shit and Conway at the expense of Noone who was at least trying to get past the defender I dont know.

Smith kept losing the ball and Conway runs inside into traffic.

I really dont think Malky has a clue. No decent plan A let aline Plan B.

If we somehow manage to get promoted we are going to be embarrassed at the next level.

Noone and Conway on wrong sides narrowing everything up

Thought Noone and Conway both cut inside way too often, made them much easier 2 defend against. Could have done with switching them during the game 2 mix it up I thought.
Everyone seems 2 be calling for loans this morning but any ideas of any quality that is available on loan at the moment that would come in and do a job? I can't think of much.
