Why have we not taken it seriously then and played our strongest side?  Ah yes the old only lost 2 in 13 arguement. What were you saying when we went no win in 10 earlier in the season? Regardless of the result of this game we are poorly coached and are underperforming. As I’ve said before, it’s not individual errors if it constantly happening then it’s a problem with the system you’re playing.  I’ve got anything personal against Wagner, he seems a nice guy. I think we all know deep down though there’s no long term future with him in-charge. We won’t make the playoffs this season. I’m willing to have £100 on it with you if you like? I’d be pleasantly surprised if I have to pay up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kanadyan Kanary 121 Posted January 28 Stacey's first touch is always backwards, even when he has space in front of him. This is not the first game I have noticed this. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wagner has since tightened us up and got people fit again... hence two losses in 13. I'm not saying he's a brilliant manager and I don't rate him even close to Farke, but he's not bad and today isn't his fault. We could have way worse.

Capt. Pants 4,246 Posted January 28 At least we can take some positives from this having scored the best goal of the game. We can concentrate on the league now but this squad needs strengthening. We're looking very leggy. Coventry next week is a huge game for Wagner  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not saying he's a brilliant manager and I don't rate him even close to Farke, but he's not bad and today isn't his fault. We could have way worse. 2 of those 13 are against Bristol Rovers though who we couldn’t beat at home. Hardly covering themselves in glory.  Some of today is absolutely his fault. We could have played our strongest eleven. We could have done something other than parking the buss from minute one. We could have not made suicidal passes at the back with their instructions to play out from the back despite there being absolutely no movement from our side to get out.  Like I’ve said if we are all honest we know there’s no long term future with Wagner. As such I don’t see any real point in wasting a season with him here. Any other side he would have been sacked after the way we finished last season. We were 5th when he took over and finished 11th despite having the largest wage bill in the league. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
