In the grand scheme of things...

[gazulu]

...we are a truly poor football team. Too many passengers, no urgency apart from maybe Robinson. Our most potent striker is left on the bench yet again. Gifting our opponents a goal after a minute was a shocker but to show no real appetite to get back into the game was an insult to the travelling fans. Once Macheda came on we started to show some interest in going forward and could have maybe snatched something but to no avail. One fan summed it up by singing the Vera Lynn song (albeit with different words) 'We'll shoot again, don't know when, don't know where, but I know we'll shoot again some sunny day'.

A pretty damning indictment coming from a loyal fan such as yourself Gaz. And even Robinson went and got himself banned for the next three matches in the 90th minute. The club seems to have a death wish on itself at the moment.

We are a poor side, but for Clark to start a 6'7" forward and then not work out once how to get a ball sent across in front of the bloke facing goal is criminal.
All Zigic had was balls fired from our defenders either 3ft above or 5ft wide of him with his back to goal - ridiculous.

Clark is to blame for today 100%. I'm ****ing seething after that. I thought the lads on the pitch gave their all, unfortunately, they are hamstrung by a total clown of a manager.

Rant finished, as you were.

i got to watch the game online and i felt sorry for the fans it was worse than it sounded,i blame the manager 100% those players have no heart because they are being led by a complete barkingly mad individual , he played a right back in midfield ,caddis who is a defender and no way a midfielder , and spector who is a midfield player and occasional right back utility player was played in his least strong position, then he plays two players on the left in hancox and ferguson who have been out of the loop or injured, he leaves his most potent striker on the bench and plays one up front making it easier for the forest defence , not a single blues player got anywhere near the knock downs or passes from zig they were 15-20 yards away , i agree with bs62 the service to zig was woeful, and as usual we concede, clark then dithered he should have seen that pressure that was being applied and brough on the second striker , that owuld have given more of a target to our midfield to aim at , it woul

The players showing, "no urgency" and "no appetite for the game" according to Gazulu. They are the ones out on the pitch and they are the ones who should be performing. We have a team of freebies, kids and loanes because of the clubs financial position and a centre forward earning millions a year who has scored six goals in 31 appearances. Adeyemi and Novak are injured and Caddis has played in every position apart from goalkeeper and centre forward for Celtic and Swindon so he is not a specialist full back.
We have a makeshift team and a manager who clearly isn't coping, an absent board and abysmal home support. Unless a miracle happens we are going to spend many years struggling in the lower leagues. Like I have said before sad times.

From Marribor to S****horpe in 12 months. How could this happen. Rhetorical qusetion as most of us know the answers. Can people stop blaming Ziggy for the mess we are in? The money just goes to Hong Kong guys.

A team of kids, loanees and maybe soon raffle winners to pull on the shirt. Hopefully rumours of a bid from the UK (Jasper and Trev would be wonderful) are true as it seems the Blues are running on the proverbial oily rag now. Will we stay up? I think not.

Haven't been able to watch or listen all season (bloody geo blocking). Regards to all of my old mates on here and all the best to you all.

Still think we will stay up, the club will get bought in the summer if we stay in champs, our own players what a treat that would be, a bright new start in August fresh after world cup fever everybody will want a football club ,at least those with money to burn and squander !!,and villa in the same league as us, Yep glass half full and even if we fail we will be the dogs in 1st div after admin and new owners ,bought for a pound, Now that sounds familiar, the Fat Lady is still singing KRO

spion you can't blame the fans for the low numbers at home , i remember dark days in the 80's and crowds were low then , but it was still affordable to go , those fans that still manage to go in the current economic climate deserve bloody medals , there are teams above us with inferior players and still play as a cohesive unit , players do as they are told for the most part , ours seem to lack leadership and the will and that is down to the manager, no excuses for him yes he's had a difficult time but he's still had decent players to work with , he is thick beyond belief and stubborn to leave one up front we're forever under pressure from the kick off he just doesn't see it , the fans do ,he's the ferkin expert its beyond time he did the job he is paid for
