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


Good post.

We are the lowest scorers in the PL. We have conceded first in 15 of our 25 league games. We have not scored a goal in open play in the first half of any of our 15 home league and cup matches - that's over 11 hours of football without a goal. Roy has one tactic and that is to sit back, not pressure teams and hope we get lucky on the break. He is too slow making subs - at least 15 mins after they scored before he did anything yesterday - and when he does make a chnage he never changes the formation. Why not leave CB on and put Ayew with him and take off one of our defensive central midfielders? Why play 3 of them in every game anyway? Why on earth have we shipped out Whickham on loan when he scored against Norwich and forced the OG at Man City, yet we keep Benteke who hasn't scored in 10 months? Yesterday we fielded our oldest ever PL side with an average age of over 30.

It's got to the stage where I don't even look forward to going to games anymore. Hodgson is 'anti-football' and is slowly killing this club. I appreciate he asked for 2 new full-backs and didn't get them - Parish has a lot to answer for in always trying to get players in on the cheap. Also we tried for Bowen and were outbid - but would he have wanted to come to a club where attacking midfielders are ignored or played out of position? The club is an omnishambles.

They don't trust his judgement in the transfer window.
He has history of bad buys. They're quite rightly holding onto their money till he's gone. This is of course my opinion only and I accept I could be totally wrong. We'll wait and see.

which is probably somewhere near what Roy has been told his job is from above .
Which means he has been a success to them even if it has all become a bit boring to us . I like many get fed up with the same borefest every week and long for the days of two wingers and a centre forward knocking the goals in but until then I'll settle for 14th

 


And we still need a striker

What many don’t seem to have grasped is that it will never be possible to convince Braunstoneagle that Hodgson is anything other than a great manager, and it is futile to have any contrary view even entertained let alone accepted.

Yes. But to do that would mean winning games which means scoring goals, something we haven't been doing. Current form suggests we are looking down, not up, which is a concern. Where do you see the next win coming from?
