forde and dunne

[scotslion58]

I know dunne is showing that he may not be good enough for the championship and forde is going through a bad spell.
with forde I dont think the defence in front of him has helped with the constant changing and poor defenders.
but the way these two loyal players have been slagged of on news at den is way over the top.
lets get behind them, slagging them off is not going to improve there confidence one bit.

Have to agree with you there Scottie!! Some of those guys are absolutely Scathing about Dunney!!

Bet half of them haven't even got an ounce of football talent in them!
OK so the guy isn't playing well and may not be able to cope with the Championship level but at least be a little kinder to a long time servant of the club!! :/

As for Forde! Well without a solid consistent back four to rely on how else are you gonna feel, he can only do so much.

The big message here is STOP slagging off players who are already deflated with no confidence and get behind them AND the manager.
Ollie told us at the beginning he was here for the long term no matter what. lets get behind him even if we do go down. It's time to recoup and rebuild. If I remember rightly Sir Alex Ferguson had a mare at the start of his Man Utd appointment.

there is no doubting how good Forde is at shot stoping but wish he would command his area and come and collect high balls more,as for Dunne he has been a great servant to Millwall but now ,just like Robbo its time to end playing in the first team

I do agree with the stopping the 'slagging off' towards our players but I can also see why Forde more so than Dunne has received some groans.

The last thing you need when morale is low and cohesion between players, manager and fans is decreasing with each game, is to pile more pressure and negativity their way.

As I say, I can see why Forde is receiving criticism as he seems sluggish in reactions to shots over the past 2-5 months, and has cost us avoidable goals in games this season which can be make or break even at this stage. I understand Forde hasn't had a settled back four so far this season but as a goalkeeper you're suppose to be in command of your 18 yard box, this can be done no matter what defence is played.

well what can you say, Forde's kicking was crap,dont know how many times he kicked it out of touch and the penalty Dunne gave away just killed the second half
