At home against a poor team and we look like we are away at rotheram.
it wasn't until jones went off things speeded up.
I dont care if I upset the Jonea lovers hes scored one tap in, since October and ive seen us go to shit several times when hes come on too much space for opposition man down when in pursuit of the ball.
conversely we started off shit he went off and we had a strong end to the game.

Solution has to be throw on the big man if your feeling a little bit frisky otherwise stick to playing slick football on the ground

Was a nuisance last week, didn't want to be there today. His lack of mobility and movement restricts the way we play. Am not a jones lover or hater, I simply can't make my mind up and neither can he

He looked like Didier Drogba of the Lazarou league never mind Championship!.
If he was available for selection tomorrow morning for a game over trelai id consider dropping him after today.

We dont have an answer we are over achieving and should if got spanked at Watford even reading would of turned us over with 11 men and no own goal.

nowhere near a top 6 side even with 2 or 3 of the best players in the league

no and ole is to blame as i'm sure he went on past reputations as alf, machaeda ect were all good performers at previous clubs but he didnt play them regular enough to find out if they were good himself? :roll:

Tbh I don't think it was to do with Jones going off but slade changing his formation for a few minutes. ravel dropping deeper and collecting the ball helping midfield, someone who could do something with the ball.

Don't worry thought they will all be gone come January.

What a load of crap, play better when Jones went off :laughing6: we never played for 85 minutes all we had was a 5 minute spell, and to take off a striker and send on a midfielder, what tactics was that, just not good enough, yesterday looked like Young was calling the shots, unbelievable, not going to get anywhere with Slade and Young in charge :thumbup:

The trouble is Jones is not a consistent performer! And that effects the team, as take yesterday set up for him and he basically didnt turn up! Better of not starting him but as impact sub! I didn't understand sub's at 85mins either was waste of time?
