Quote: DParky "This is Neil Kelly's team, not Paul Rowley's.'"


Any team thrives on respect for the coach and his decisions. Paul may have not put this team together but he did take on the job as coach. We are not playing as a team.............you can fill in the rest!

You looked are our lads and it was clear the hadnt got a clue what was going on around them, concede a couple and the heads dropped.
That team has no confidence and is prepared badly.

Got to disagree, he has bags of potential but is lacking experience (positionally as much as anything) in one of the games key roles.

Quote: Alexs Dad "With nowt to lose and everything to gain, throwing the ball around like the Harlem Globetrotters against a team playing with zero confidence.'"


What like running and passing the ball???

I overheard a player being asked why were you subsituted what did they say you did wrong? Communication and confidence is obviously lacking. Something is wrong. It doesn't look like a team to me. IMO We have several good players and we aren't getting th best out of them and that is down to the coach.

Support play is his strong point, but thats it. Poor defence, positional play and utter crap under a high ball - fact.

I'm not going to disagree with you one bit, you're probably right, what I'm saying is we looked like a team with no confidence and Donny played like a team with nowt to lose.

We only need to play 10% below par and they raise their game by 10% and all of a sudden there isnt much between us.

To be fair though Dave - when Ian Millward came in 1998 he took over someone else's team....and took us from rock bottom to a top four finish.

Sorry, I am like most supporters, frustrated because I know they can do better and it just isn't happening. I was at the edge of the ground and you can see in the faces of the players some have given everything they can. Some also also look bewildered as if they don't understand what is happening.

Sorry Keith....not having a pop at you, just saying that the coach can have an influence on someone else's team. icon_smile.gif

I think Ian will be given complete control of how the team is run Keith....... AT has been after Ian taking over since he become chairman and Ian prob had that agreed before he agreed to take over.

kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg

Thing is ste is a good coach will instil confidence in any team

But if we concentrate on defence icon_rolleyes.gif

They were a different team after scoring to go back in front

Scoring more than the opposition wins games , bloody simple

Just about sums him up as a coach, your normally spot on with everything so can't see why that would be any different however much I'd hope it wasn't true.
