Stevenage Post Match Thoughts

[Pocket rocket]

Some absolutely embarrassing comments on here loyal supporters. Don’t make me laugh absolutely embarrassing and tin pot. You are all fickle and embarrassing.

[Mr_bukaroo]

It’s laughable that so many people are quoting the it’s a new team / squad. He has started both games with 90% of players from last season. Get real people.
The 90% are the problem.

But playing a different system!! They need to get use to paying the system and that?s going to take time.

[Old_time_miller]

Don’t make players do what they can’t do.
Alex Ferguson.

Early on in season I know but I hope it improves quickly otherwise I can't see MH staying in a job behond Christmas with performances like that jesus christ did we create one opportunity to score today absolute woeful that performance.

[Heliosphan78]

Already gone disastrously wrong!! Get a grip FFS we are two games into the season.

New players and a new way of playing is going to take time. Miles off or not, we need to have patience, it?s not going to be a quick fix. I have faith in Matt at the helm, but it needs time.

Sorry I forgot the first few games don't count.

Are you happy with where the squad is? Nombe and Etete injured, Hugill the only fit striker, a goalkeeper that doesn't inspire confidence, threadbare in central defence and a reliance on untried, inexperienced youngsters. Neither you nor I know how good they are, or can be. But yes, they undoubtedly need time, and they'll get time.

Meanwhile, where are the goals coming from? We didn't have a shot on target today and had 8 touches of the ball in their box.

I think we'll be in the bottom 8 at Christmas.

[Tigerish]

We keep signing crocks don't we? It's beyond a joke. Will this club ever learn?

[Derbymiller]

We signed too many midfielders, we knew we had lower budget and focused in the wrong area. Yes we are rebuilding so to help provide a buffer you tighten up at the back and have players that score goals, then look at the other areas. Recruitment is poor and from the interviews it looks we have to sell before buy. Now people say it is only two games, true but how many games has Hugill had, the man is beyond useless. They say he is playing with a smile on his face, of course he is, guaranteed a start and is earning big money for falling over and arguing. My 10 year old dog is a better Centre forward than him. Now MH this team can't play with wing backs, stop the theory and start with a back four get some points on the board and build from that. If we have to reduce the wages then do so and buy a player that can actually play, the best ability is availability

[Derbymiller]

I missed off, so many players perked up today on 60 minutes when we changed formation, watch the video Matt and wake up, formation and asking players to do what they know is very important

Derby away from home play not to lose to start with got to be a back 4. Can't understand why McWilliams isn't starting?

[NorthWestCorner]

There are a few posters on here who refuse to see the truth. Just like a bloke who sits by me, who seems to think that because MH is from Romish, everything is fine.

A few points:

- we have a smaller budget that last year but it’s still bigger that a lot in this division. Like Stevenage. Simply put, it has been spent on dross. And that sits with MH.

- we dispatched JCH and kept Hughill. That seemed to bring much joy on here. Fact is, JCH was still better at that lazy, arrogant lump. It’s time to show him the door NOW. Brin bet me he would score over 10 goals this season! Hahahah

- MH said he couldn’t promise us results but he could promise us effort and organisation. Turns out he can’t. He’s not a leader. He may be a good coach but he’s not a leader and simply, that isn’t going to work. Listen to Alex Revell’s pre match interview. He’s a leader.

- where is Stewart these days? Speak up. If you’re not interested (which you clearly are not) then put the club up for sale, visibly. Let the fans know what your intentions are, so they can decide if they want to buy-in or not.

What will happen next can still be influenced but if nothing happens we will be relegated.

[millersrus]

Listened to the match on the radio, it seemed a boring affair. Not the commentators fault it was boring, seems to actually reported it as it was.
Some will be happy with the BBC reporting things as they are for a change.

[RU66]

Know I'm not in the cliche on here don't want to be but I know how things work did gambling on the horses. In last 3 weeks won 650 pounds on the lotto.

MH said * it up to start with keeping Kayode & Holmes. Then carried on with Benson Gore injured or not strong enough. Don't like look of Martha or Etete. Give Yearwood benefit of the doubt. Our midfield it's that bad Kelly he's still starting there! McWilliams can't get a look in can't work that out.

[Jocksgloves1]

If having Revell as manager means we play the awful Ainsworth-esque style that Stevenage did yesterday, I'll stick with MH thanks.

Yes they were dire,but so were we,and we lost.Played 2 crap teams,and lucky to have got 3 points.

[Derbymiller]

Listening to both post match interviews tell a story. AR a manager in the second season that has a small squad with some great recruitment gems including a good L1 forward, his squad is maturing together. MH sounded like players aren't taking onboard the instructions, he isn't happy with the effort level, as a lot of us noticed yesterday. Then it was the same stuff of previous three managers injuries, well if we gamble on players with poor availability records like etete and Benson that is what you get. Clearly he believes we need players, 10 recruits and he says with 4 injured we are nearly down to our minimum!! With our injury record that is worrying. The rest of this window will be key to whether which of the three leagues of 8 we play in this season. At least he was open and honest but not an easy job for him.
