Gallagher was our best player today. That in of itself says a lot.

Or made the change 20 min in. It was obviously a mistake how we started. Why not fix it right away?

He can’t use his left. Every time he gets the ball on the wing it’s a back pass, cross through the defender with his right, or an attempt to go by with speed. If he could one in a while cut in on his left it would do his game wonders.

Johnson for Buckley was almost as absurd as Edun over Dack on Friday. Buckley on today changed the match, why he was left out, or not subbed on after 20 min is criminal

Can’t imagine so. We’ve been the worst side in the league since the January transfer window opened. Can’t imagine any other side being 2nd then producing the worst return of the league the second half.

Dolan has the incredible ability to take too many touches when he needs to play quick and play quick when he needs to take a player on.

Buckley on has made a huge difference. Assuming Diaz is sold he’ll be our best player next year. The team sheet the last two weeks to start have been atrocious. Edun last Johnson today stand out as miserable decisions. Only one man to blame. Last week should have been Dack instead of Edun this week Buckley from the start.

And it’s not particularly close

On the heels of losing to last place

Doesn’t matter because we will persist with something clearly not working than to make a change.

Good thing we kept Rothwell around in January so he can watch the important games from the touch line.

Is it worse as a player to be subbed off after 20 min or as a manager to abandon pregame tactics 20 min in?

It’s fine to set up to play without the ball, but when you need 3 points are at home we decide to play a low press and then when we get it play backwards. There’s no plan at all

It’ll hurt twice as bad when it’s the game winner in the 88th min

I fear he’s more likely to get a contract that a boot up his arse

Also he’s been played when we’re chasing games.

I’d take Kenny Powers over Mowbary

But Gallagher’s got 20+ goals in him…just ask the gaffer

What’s so confusing to me is how our tactics have completely changed is 2021. When we were winning games we played without the ball, pressed high, won it high and quickly transitioned. Even when we were broken down and Kamenski has the ball, he’d look to roll it to Rothwell who would turn and counter. fast forward to now. No pressure, backwards play, and lots of long balls. It can’t be a mistake that we’ve completely changed our way of play and with it lost our form. When was the last time you’ve seen us press high? Last time we’ve consistently won the ball in the attaching 1/2? Go back and watch a match from November…we look a complete different side with a different plan.

Petersburg have 18 points in 2022, we have 17. How Mowbary is still around is astonishing.

To be fair, they’ve been the better side all day. Had we gotten 3 points it would have been a theft

Dolans takes too many touches time and time again.

Even with 10 men, we have 6 defensive minded players on and can’t sure up the back.

He’s a center back that’s being asked to be in the attack on the right. We persist with taking Naymbe off so Lenihan can attack on the right.

Well Edun certainly has influenced this game.
