Downsouth 6,175 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Ok so it does seem harder to play and score against 10 men, or have I spoken too soon! Link to post Share on other sites
Brunners 7,952 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Twice this game Tavernier has had the chance to get a shot off if he just anticipates the ball dropping better. He doesn't seem quick enough to process things Link to post Share on other sites

BORO can offload all of the high earners at the end of this season, and will, but he won’t reap anything because 6 are out of contract. Stay or drop will mean new recruits but they won’t be anything worthwhile, just a head count. Stay up or drop ticket sales will be down as will merchandise. Hard element overheads will remain the same. The clubs value will remain depressed. Gibson ROI will remain elusive. It’s been a very steep dive in a very short period of time from Premiership to bottom of the Championship. I wonder if only he had thrown money at staying up would the club be in a better financial position. I wonder if our "smash the league" season was Gibson's last-ditch gamble? Maybe getting back into the PL was the club's only shot at financial stability? When that failed, maybe we were doomed to the drop? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

He hasn't given the ball away ALL game. He's given it away a couple of times, which is less than most of the other players. Link to post Share on other sites
Denzel Zanzibar 6,931 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 I've got a horrible feeling Randolph will go in January and we'll try to stick with Pears. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,401 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Derby aren't very good either, we've dropped points to some rubbish teams this season. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Downsouth 6,175 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Maybe Woody should ask the players where they would prefer to play, give it a go and see what happens. We could end up with Britt and Fletcher in defence and 8 strikers all clamouring to score a goal 2 Link to post Share on other sites

DurhamRed 2,043 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 (edited) So Woodgate has to resign tonight he's failed right he was brought in to get us too score we haven't in 3 3/4 games now. If he has any honour he would stop digging his hole 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Why throw a complete rookie into a survival situation? Link to post Share on other sites
