    I know there are mitigating circumstances...there always are...but of the managers who’ve ‘managed’ more than twenty games since we moved to PP, Rooney now has the worst PPG record since..........Paul Jewell!
    In some ways I sympathise, and it is possible to see an improvement in the one touch build up ‘box to box’ play...but if he’s responsible for the current strategy questions have to be asked.

    I'm trying to hold off criticising him this season as he's under difficult circumstances, but I can't forgive last season when he DID have a full and capable squad.
    So its wishful thinking that this season he will make the right decisions, with less players and no strikers.
    Our best hope is that he gets a better offer so we don't have to pay him off.
    Disappointing that we're conceding when we have 2 highly experienced at top level central defenders, they have to take responsibility on the pitch.

    Admire your patience...but I don’t think it matters how experienced (aka old) the central defenders are if the full backs are making basic errors or going awol. The aerial defending, of what was a bombardment at times, by both CD’s and the ‘keeper wasn’t where we failed.
