Sheffield Wednesday Post Match Thoughts

[MillersTime]

As expected, unfortunately. Completely given up any shred of hope with away games. Not one ounce of belief we would do anything but lose today. Will do more than reasonable at home, but will be futile when we are reminded that half the season isn't played at NYS. Bizarre side.

UTM.

We've always been a direct side. Players like Cafu Fred that's not their game so it's either one or the other. Leopards can't change their spots!

Agree with most opinions on today's sorry spectacle. What particularly maddens me is that the Owls manager on arrival publicly announced h is intention to turn his players into a "gegenpressing" team where you don't give the opposition any time on the ball. We had fair warning of this style change yet failed to react or compete. Taylor has to take responsibility but many of the players are not putting it in and you wonder if the manager has lost the dressing room.

I don't think the manager has lost the dressing room! You wouldn't have had that performance on Wednesday night if he had.We aren't good enough if truth were told.In order for us to beat a team,like on Wednesday night,we seem to have to give so much physically,emotionally and mentally that we need about 10 days recovery time to have any chance of repeating what,to us,is celebrated like a 'cup win'! MT basically said that in his post match today. That is where,I'm afraid,he falls down and contradicts himself. On the one hand he proclaims to be the one that will change the mindset of the club and make it believe we belong and are good enough to be in the Champ,and then when things are going sour,constantly reminds everyone that Rotherham in the Championship will always be tough and we will always be fighting an uphill battle.Make your mind up!

The fact remains that the manager is certainly not getting the best out of the players we have in this squad.Whether it's wrong formation, lack of tactical awareness or failure to motivate these players, we are not getting the results.They just looked completely lost today and we were out fought and not able to compete with this physical side.The away form is unbelievably bad and the way we set up is never right.This was far too easy for our opponents today and we gifted the points to them.We were terrible from start to finish.I am beginning to lose faith with the management and TS will not have enjoyed seeing this.

Listening to his interview....I suspect he fears he is about to be called by TS or has already been sacked.

"Unforgiving for the players, and for unforgiving for me".

I actually liked what he said post game, could see the hurt. I'm less enraged at him having listened to it. Still, he is caught in a mess of his own making.

Other than Rathbone and Victor, no one came out of that with anything worth praising.... Possibly Kelly.

Think some fans cant get passed the ‘Rotherham way’ we’re used to seeing players get stuck in and give their all, some of these playes seem to be more laid back and look like they arent trying even though they are.
Thats not an excuse for yesterdays shower of **** though
