Cheltenham Town Post Match Thoughts

[CTMilller]

A new low in a series of recent lows.

Evans is just about tolerable as a manager when he's getting results. When things aren't working he is nothing but an embarrassment.

Another blooody miserable satdi nite cos of the fat bloke and a chairman who needs to sell up but wont cos hes a stubborn booger who must surely realise that were on a real downer and gerrin worse

Have to say i'm expectin dissapointment before the ball is kicked every game

Often wish I didnt give a sheeeite but like many its in me blood 🤨

....all the words have been said,.................what a pile of..????

At least under Andy Scott we clearly had the players and it was only the blind outright bloody mindedness that held them back.

This time we haven't even got the players.

And I disagree Rob Scott as head of recruitment has been abject failure.

£1m for Nombe. I know I keep saying it. But 1m for a club our size

No, it was just a clever move by Stewart to bring back a name that fans would accept as a previous winning Manager and it would fill the seats, nothing else and it all worked well for Stewart.

They well be mates off the field but watch this space as they say.

If you are saying that he brought in a name that he thought spelled success and would sell season tickets, how can you deny that he brought back a name that he thought the supporters wanted?

You are making no sense.

Fancy that. The owner of a football club makes a move that he thinks will be popular with supporters and gets slagged of when it doesn't work.

I think I would keep my millions in my pocket instead of becoming involved in football.

Could it be deja vu! Ronnie got sacked after we got well beaten at Chesterfield. Evans at Barnsley?

Without a huge improvement in performance, we will get well and truly spanked on Friday night

As one of the 2500 Millers who could be bothered to go today I thought that performance was about as bad as it gets but what summed it up was the fat bloke who sat on his fat ar$e for the whole game and did absolutely nothing apart from scuttle down the tunnel at half time and then even quicker at full time.

How the hell can a manager judge how a team is playing or make decisions to change things if he just sits in the dugout because he can't possibly have a decent perspective from there?

I certainly won't be disappointed if Evans goes because he has improved absolutely nothing and arguably has made things worse.
However, the problems at the club run far deeper than whoever is the manager and things won't get better unless there is wholesale change.
A fish rots from the head down after all ☹️.

As poor as it seems at the moment SE still deserves some more time. I said at the beginning of the season that the squad he assembled would need at least until October to look anything like a team, and whilst we have looked OK at times, we also look further from a team than I expected. All managers will cite injuries as an excuse, but we in my opinion have had what I would call some big players out, with Kelly and Ragget initially culminating with McCart and JCH more recently, but we have played well a few times and in my opinion will get better as players come back. Sacking SE won't cure anything, and, for me anyway, every manager should get at least 3 transfer windows before he can say this is his team, and SE knows this league very well. As things stand I can't see us being in the mix come april/may but nor do I see us being in a relegation fight so I am hoping that we can get our big players back and,coupled with a decent January window, hopefully get a couple of decent players in which may just push us on to at least fight for a play off spot. My glass is always half full and I live in hope regardless of what has happened today. UTM

I should just add that Cheltenham played some decent stuff at times and always looked more dangerous than we did when they had the ball.
They had shape, movement and a pattern of play which are all things that we sadly lacked and have done for most of the season to be honest.
I was particularly impressed with their number 22 Archer who caused us more than a few problems.

One amusing thing from this afternoon was when the sponsors named Dawson as man of the match. He literally did nothing apart from pick the ball out of the net three times which kind of summed our whole performance up.
