The thing is the slow pass it about at the back crap football , seems to be running through the whole squad, they must be being told to play like this at home, which is a joke considering our home form.
Saturday will be the same sleep inducing style of play, with marginally better individuals.

I was in a box in the Whitehorse and Luka, pva , guitia, Sakho etc were in the boxes either side of us, was actually surprised how interested they were in watching the match. Guitia looked pissed right off with the performance and when Hennessey tried to give them a couple of goals by playing hospital balls out from the back, he actually looked concerned for his mate.
Second half I spent most of the time looking at their wives/girlfriends.

The buck has to stop with the manager who insists on this rigid way of playing even when we’re playing fourth division opposition.
We can’t even claim that we were unlucky.
Hodgson won’t take responsibility and in the post match interview refers to the players failure to ‘create or take chances’ as if this was a new problem in the home games.
Yes he hasn’t been backed in the market , but it doesn’t help when he plays players out of position ( Meyer,Woods,Riedewald) and two immobile strikers that are never going to work together.
The apologists for Hodgson will say what options dis he have?
To me that just lets Hodgson off the hook
We should be able to put out a team to comfortably beat a fourth division at home.
Without the league cup where are the squad players now going to get first team game time?

Since February only City and the Scousers have got more points than us in the league. And we don't exactly have the best players in the league...

If punk ever happened I'd be preaching the law, instead of listenin to Lydon lecture BBC4

The definition of a good manager is getting the best out available resources .
Where does leave Hodgson when you look at our home performances last season and this season?
The squad is good apart from a few gaps.
I acknowledge we’ve had some terrific away wins playing the ‘Hodgson way’ but surely he should have discovered a more successful template which works at home by now.
Can I suggest we play with a quicker tempo, more forward passes, commit more players into the opposition half/penalty area, improve and introduce variety into set piece delivery.
All this can be done without sacrificing defensive stability.

Very worrying to lose to a lower-division side like this. When possible relegation candidates do this, it is often a bad sign.

The right place at the right time

With the obvious limitations in filling some positions, it could be we are better off, maybe need to concentrate on getting points in the league.
This isn’t Roys fault ,any more than experienced ,expensive ,professionals , not being able to conjure up a goal against 4th division opposition , can be his fault. The fact that they have had careers already leaning how it’s done, reflects on them , not who they work for. Nobody sends them out to not do the job.
