Christ almighty, talk about first impressions
Mate in no way was it a dig, it just shows how we were all duped for so long with The Model and SpeakmanYou little tinker!
I’m going to double down a bit here though.
He DID look a totally different person - not just a different player - a different person, in pre-season.
Interested, energetic, enthusiastic even. Not just scoring, actually running!
I actually think some of these players are better than they look.
But I think our coaching absolutely stinks. In pre-season, we were still playing a bit in our old way, more direct, crossing the ball, actually trying to counter-attack without playing seventeen sideways passes first.
But then, almost from day one, that all went in the bin. I’d love to get some stats on crossing for example. We have to be one of the fewest attempted number of crosses in English football.
The Hemir we see now is clearly disinterested, demotivated and not arsed to be here. Confidence shot to bits.
I think that’s true of so much of this squad. The difference with Hemir is that I think Mowbray must take a lot the blame. “Welcome to England - you’re shit” seemed to be his man management style with Hemir, used as collateral in manoeuvrings against the board.
For the others - I’m going with Dodds, Beale, Speakman and whoever in that lot (it isn’t Beale) is in charge of our vile tactics.
What a f***ing shitshow.

Is duped the correct word? It just comes down to if the signings are good or not. The initial lot were good. The last lot not so whatsoever. IF the next lot are good and successful then it's all rosy again, but it's the fact a lot of our signings don't look like kicking on at all then it's a concern.Mate in no way was it a dig, it just shows how we were all duped for so long with The Model and Speakman
They are still posters on here defending the recruitment, I'd say duped is very appropriate when it comes to themIs duped the correct word? It just comes down to if the signings are good or not.

The fact we invested in so many players who were wingers or some sort, but bought in Beale, a coach that didn't really play with wide wingers from what we knew of him previously, and in our last fixture we didn't play any wingers at all (Albeit injuries to Clarke and Roberts) it seems there is no plan in place.
Hopefully we stumble upon a formation and team that get's results pretty sharpish.
I'll defend most of the initial players recruited. I think that idea was class and seemed to work out, but the last couple of windows have been very worrying. From such positivity late last year to how it feels around the club now (This board is mass bipolar so i take some of it with a pinch of salt, but something just doesn't feel right at this minute) is night and day.They are still posters on here defending the recruitment, I'd say duped is very appropriate when it comes to them
Never looking at pre season again.Rate him massively me. Proper massive shithouse with ability. Class.
@ Hong Kong Too much time on your hands. Get some friends.Another tick for the recruitment team.
