47er Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Freedman had 14 points to Appleton's 9 after 10 games, and he took over a team in the lower reaches of the league. The comparison with Freedman is not one that shows Appleton in a favourable light. NO comparison shows Appleton in a good light! 1 point from the last 5 games!

Clitherover Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 I really, really, REALLY hope Notlob don't get promoted back into the Premiership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G Somerset Rover Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 I backed Bolton on here some weeks ago and many told me that the gap was too big. Just look at it now! Going to be sickening if they do it, which as I did then, suspect they will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get your drift but they weren't the basket case we were and still are ..Just needed a new man at the helm with a bit of nouse(Coyle lost his way ) in many ways they were unlucky to be relegated .... I think many on here would prefer Gartside and their owner (name I forget) to Venkys ,Shebby, Shaw et al ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backroom Tom Posted March 12, 2013 Backroom Share Posted March 12, 2013 Barnsley and Peterborough both lead If it stays this way we'll only be 4 points clear, potentially 1 point ahead going into Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 7 points separate 13th from bottom. It's not just bragging rights at stake on Sunday! Leeds equalise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeChuck Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Why are you worrying Tom ? Le Chuck reckons we'll @#/? it. Shouldn't you wait to till nearer the end of the season to take the @#/?? I predicted us to get relegated before a ball was even kicked last season, so I'm not saying we'll be fine out of mindless loyalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 What an odd division. Palace (4th) 0-4 down at home against Big Club (were 13th, now 10th) with 20 mins left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backroom DE. Posted March 29, 2013 Backroom Share Posted March 29, 2013 I consider it somewhat of a miracle every time we score a goal. For all the moaning that goes on regarding Jordan Rhodes, without his goals we would without question be deep in the relegation mire right now.

Stuart Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 D'ya know what. We were talking about this at the game today. We just don't seem to be able to score or even create a real chance. We really lack a cutting edge. Without Rhodes we would already be down this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backroom DE. Posted March 29, 2013 Backroom Share Posted March 29, 2013 Yep, and he's created a huge portion of his goals from absolutely nothing, because he never gets any service. We've not been a creative team for many years, but this season really has been the absolute worst I can ever remember for creative play. We have nothing, and Appleton shipped out all players who even had the potential to create chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 He's scored 24 goals this season. In a team struggling badly and at a club in turmoil - under 5 different managers. Harsh to blame him. We need to set the team up to give him the chances (knowing he will take them) and/or have other players help out by getting on the scoresheet as well.

cn174 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Rhodes is a big part of that problem. Why is he? Let's take Rhodes out. We'd have a whole 22 goals between all our other players, that's not going to get us very far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salgado Is A Hero Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Why is he? Let's take Rhodes out. We'd have a whole 22 goals between all our other players, that's not going to get us very far. The argument is we'd possibly score more as a team with a striker who contributed more in open play. We've scored 46 goals in the league this season. Watford have scored 75, and only 4 teams have scored less than us. Defensively we're good with only 5 teams conceding less. But with a striker who can't hold the ball up well, coupled with CM's who don't make enough runs into the box or generally support him enough, you could argue having a striker like Rhodes has proved detrimental in that respect. On the other hand, we don't play to Rhodes strengths, balls into feet and from out wide. I can't see Prem teams taking a punt on him and no other C'ship team will spend upwards of 5/6 million on a striker so I can see him still playing for us next year if we don't go down. People can slag off the "show pony" Rochina but he got goals and assists. Not many others do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's too easily brushed off and the pressure is back on. He's a goal poacher alright but apart from that quality talent it's like playing with 10 men. En enigma.
