For a while now I’ve tried to avoid being negative about Roy. I get he’s all the experience in the world and is a great coach but there doesn’t seem to be any passion in what he does.

That leads me to ask whether this affects the players and they end up the same way. On our day I believe we’re a match for anyone but we just seem to lack that passion/drive/fire that players like Jedi or Damo showed week in, week out and which spread through the team.

Today we were 2-1 down with 10 to go yet we don’t throw the kitchen sink at it. So what if we make things worse, Chuck another two attackers on & have a proper go at them - sod safety & balance & all that. Watford’s back four would have been struggling with a variety of attacking options coming at them yet Ayew & Wickham were just sat there watching on. Even put Wardy in at right back & push AWB onto the right wing with Andros left or wherever he wants, not just more of the same.

You can’t simply keep doing the same thing and hope the outcome changes.

Mentioned in a previous post , Come the end of the season he will retire gracefully for that reason SP will not sack him , they will make a mutal decision.

Absolutely. My issue is that we were in a one off game to get to the semi final yet didn’t really give it a go at any stage, even when it was quite literally s*** or bust. Most other teams in that position would probably have the keeper coming up for corners etc not just looking like we just wanted to keep our shape.

Have a proper go - show the fans it means as much to the players as it does them.

I wish Roy would make a decision during a game.

He's never parish's long term choice - the squad he has, the line up, all past managers signings.
