I think the board have lost confidence with Roy also.

If it's as rumoured that Roy didn't want Carrasco and Bowen then it's no wonder he wasn't given money to spend.

He'll be off in the summer if not before.

I very much doubt that the Board have lost confidence in the manager. The way the club is being run by that Board, they are lucky to have him.

It's not true that he wasn't given money to spend, where do you get that from ??!!

If I was Hodgson then I would quit in the summer because there is every chance that without refinancing and team rebuilding the club are heading for an even tougher season next year.

How about a few long balls to Benteke plan B he wins most in the air and stop all the fiddling around in our own half.

We hardly had long longs in the opposition's danger area. Yesterday, did you notice we had a couple of free kicks the halfway line area ? Many a time we passed the ball sideways or backwards to play it up instead of long balls into SU's danger area.

He would need someone up alongside him on the same wavelength - dare I say like the old Wright / Bright combination
Not a bad idea to bypass the current midfield set-up as they do farq all attackwise anyway...
If we're going to play long ball we might as well go all the way and get Big Sam back

We had about as attacking a team out there in the second half yesterday, as ive seen all season. Yet we could hardly mount an attack.

Then he takes JM off for a defensive midfielder, that though we love, we know is not much good in offensive nature.

RH been good for us, there is no doubt, but comes a time where the players start saying WTF?, and i think thats shown this season.

We will lose Wilf for sure at end of season, maybe if we were playing more positive football, with chance of Europe, he might think about it. But no way now.

If he goes, other players will consider their future more seriously. Milo has been eyed up by bigger teams, as is Guaita and PVA.

Next season gonna be a total disaster unless we have big plans for change come end of season.

buck stops with roy. the sum total performance of the team is way less than sum of the individual parts. Roy's tactics bare most of the blame. paying for draws in every game gets you killed when one in your team makes a mistake. this we are lucky to have roy thing is hogwash. credit he gets for saving us 2 seasons ago, but thats just it. BFS also did that. how about the sale of AWB,genius? NOT. Loan of CW, genius NOT. the not playing of riedewald till you have to, genius? Hardly. "he did not get any backing in the transfer window"..TRUE? HARDLY - like his liverpool stint where he almost ran them to the ground. now, has he done well elsewhere, well yes, but more through the luck of the draw, marginal wins, narrow losses and a heap of draws. our current palace team managed differently is capable of far better than we have managed. and dont get me wrong, RH is a good guy, means well but in this league you cant go into matches heaping praise to the teams you are playing especially if they are at or below your level

Clearly preparing excuses so he doesn't have to scrutinise his own tactical failure.

If I was Hodgson then I would quit in the summer because there is every chance that without refinancing and team rebuilding the club are heading for an even tougher season next year.

Hodgson has done an astounding job with very few resources and, seemingly, little backing, financially or otherwise, from the owners. I find it inconceivable that he's happy to simply muddle through on what limited squad there is available to him.

This is a club in a very dangerous limbo. There are stories going around that the Americans want out (waiting to trouser the Zaha money in the summer, perhaps), which would maybe explain the lack of investment in the squad and why the stadium development has ground to a halt. While this uncertainty persists, the squad gets older, highly paid underperformers continue to drain resources and fresher, younger blood isn't coming on board. As long as all this is going on, form and morale will drop and relegation becomes more and more likely.

In this kind of atmosphere, it wouldn't surprise me in the least if Hodgson walked at the end of the season. People will be frantically looking around for someone to blame but, believe it, Hodgson isn't one of them.

 


Wife beating may be socially acceptable in Sheffield, but it is a different matter in Cheltenham

Maybe someone with better knowledge than me has the answer, has Roy ever had an high scoring striker in any of he’s teams? Before him we scored goals I know he is ultra defensive but so have other managers we’ve had.

Not suggesting we play long ball all the time but have it as an option. Teams know exactly how we play and can prepare. I would add maybe using substitutes earlier in the game if it isn’t working and get them on quickly. When Van Aanholt limped off recently the management didn’t even seem to notice and it took ages to get a sub on which is amateurish. One final moan is it just luck that Sheff Utd have one injured player coming back soon and we have had up to nine or ten perhaps our training / preparation is wrong?

He had Harry Kane, who was banging them in for fun with Spurs, put on corner duty for England. I think that answers your question.
