OTBC Yeah, absolutely this. I still think there's a place for Tettey in this team; although Skipp and Rupp are starting to look decent together, there were too many times there was a yawning chasm where a diligent defensive midfielder should be. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the most concerning thing is that we've gone four entire games without being ahead, until the last minute today. If we can take chances early in the game, we can dictate the tempo and draw the opposition out, leaving space in behind to exploit. Concede first, and when the scores are level, we generally spend a lot of time playing in front of two deep banks who look to hit us on the counter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Meh, I find him quite entertaining and think his hearts in the right place regarding Norwich. like Wiz and Bill he seems to be quite the pantomime villain of this forum. There was people literally calling him out when we scored the winner on the match thread so he’s only giving the crowd what they want. From my own point of view the pessimists can go a bit ott at times.... play well and lose = moan play bad and win = moan play bad and lose = moan play well and win = satisfied. I think everyone wants the best for this club but in a competitive league if the above holds true there’s always going to so much opportunity for discontent. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rhino1 292 Posted October 17, 2020 Lakey - agree totally, not pretty, not classy, bit of a struggle not memorable , but three points - didn’t we get just 3 points last time when we put Leeds to the sword, with pure class. At the end of the year the points that matter!! forget the performance and move on!! It will come Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beyond this season, certainly; but Tettey's on the bench and has tons of experience. In a division such as the Championship, having old hands like Hanley, Gibson, Tettey and Hugill will give us a bit extra. I'm sure Sorensen's time will come, though.

I think in some ways, Rotherham may have done us a huge favour by showing that we can be got at and that teams don't have to play like Derby did. Teams may come at us a bit more and that could suit us if the defence can stop throwing goals away. It could allow our better players more space to play Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm certainly more 'happy clappy' than 'nappy crappy', but I can still see plenty of concerns as well as positives from today's performance. Delighted with three points, but plenty to discuss. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess my point as someone who mainly observes this forum is that condemning him just seems to feed him more than anything and the cycle continues. The most extreme of which was his feud with the poster Morty. Not criticising you or anyone for that matter but what I notice is so many people don’t seem to be able to refrain from biting. I don’t know if he is a troll but if he is he’s one of the best... he’s got a few of the posters on here on strings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
