SouthernSmoggie 4,223 Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 33 minutes ago, BillyWoofs_shinpad said: Clayton ought to start, he’s played in 7 of our 8 wins this season. A draw would be a very good result for Woodgate and the best way to ensure that is to keep things tight in defence. I've been asking this for ages... why was he dropped? All those good wins came with the DM pairing of Saville and Clayton, with Tavernier as attacking mid ahead of him. Okay Howson and McNair aren't centre backs.... but it was working and we were winning. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
ChipBarrington 313 Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I think its like Beckham and McClaren where he just wants to replace him, partly ability but partly just symbolic. McClaren had the nouse to recall Beckham... Link to post Share on other sites
Ayresome7 187 Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Did he really say freak results can happen in the Championship in reference to our match against Leeds? Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think he said that our result at Leeds was a freak result, if that's what you're saying? I know he said a lot about how anyone can beat anyone in this league (as he's done all season, one of those comments that Pulis pushed too) and he listed off some results where Leeds lost. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps I was wrong but I just interpreted it as it would be a freak result for us to beat them. Your explanation makes sense. Link to post Share on other sites

I totally agree with you, the situation may be too far gone for any manager to rectify at this stage. The trick is then to employ someone who can wheel and deal and put a suitable squad together to get us promoted. Link to post Share on other sites
Cormick 11 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 If Woodgate is a true Boro fan and still wants some sort of respect from the fans, he should resign instead of waiting for a pay off from the club. Link to post Share on other sites

Human nature and the fact that new jobs will be few and far between for him would suggest he will stay until the very bitter end. Link to post Share on other sites

It's not really been here for him either, however much quality he has had to work with coming into the job he's not been able to spend anything relative to his predecessors.
