Fucking Shit......Its usually best to let the dust settle and anger drain away before commenting publicly. Having driven a 200 mile round trip across the Pennines to see that dross, I cant wait. So many negatives and few positives. Carson good, Oates worked hard and was at least interested. Bantom looked 50 times more lively than Carroll (who looks more like Evan Horwood every day) but he lost the ball too many times. I was also pleased to see Ducky back in business.
Yes, the referee was useless but only made the afternoon worse, he did not lose the match, the so called Pools team did that. There is no spark, no fire in the belly, little interest, passion, hunger or desire and Ronnie is correct there. Don't forget, that car park is lined with Audi's, BMW's and a multitude of personalised registrations. Its simply not good enough, extra training, cancelled days off at the least. 90% of the squad need a massive kick up the rear end.
They are simply discrediting the town, fans and club. I don't know the answer, clearly missing Magnay but that is only one player!. Drop Bingham to the bench and get Fenwick on - changes are needed and fast but we need 11 Reece Oates's out there, running their hearts out, not like Featherstone et al who simply don't give a H'angus, worrying times.
Right who are you and what have you done with Brian Clough
That's probably the most sensible post you have ever done
