Whilst I've called the manager out from day 1... 18:57 - Sep 22 with 3448 viewsartsbossbeard

...the players today didn't step up. Pro footy players playing like they're in a training drill.

Shocking stuff, all round.

Some really simple things we're just not done, or done terribly.

Management take blame because they are their players, but I agree here.

Not good enough obviously, but I'll give the team some credit in that it's always difficult to break down a team when they put 8,9,10 players behind the ball like Bolton did when they went down to ten.

I survived Ipswich 0-0 Burton

Until the last 5 mins of the first half the players had let Hurst down, these are professional players in the second tier of English football?! Mis contorl, mis passing, stupid passes.

Albeit they seemed in desperate need of guidance from the bench in the second half

I'm not sure the red card, or the introduction of Walters (before he got injured), actually helped Town today.

Yep, looks increasingly likely that you'll be proven right about PH but the players really haven't covered themselves in glory over the last few months.

Some just patently aren't good enough but we know that some of them are decent and they haven't stepped up in our time of need. Yet.

Not calling for his head, just realised that he's not up to the task.

I did the Braintree away game, in fairness. My doubts started then.

....most of the fanbase had only seen the game against West Ham, where we did OK for about 20 minutes against a team that barely broke into a jog.

As you quite rightly say had they seen any more of the friendlies the concerns would have far more real.

I remember walking away from Barnet thinking that things weren't as positive as I'd hoped.

long balls, no creativity, players out of position - much of that could have been a MM type showing, no doubt about that.

seen many many 0-0's at PR over the last 3 years where I wonder what the point in waking up to go after a night shift is.

but massively for me I seem to have not noticed it happen, but the youngsters we had have all disappeared. really disappointing that

Not seen anything?

So were all those below better:
- 0-1 in the FA Cup against reserve Sheffield Utd despite having failed to register a shot on target?
- 0-0 Burton
- 0-1 Cardiff
- 0-0 Sheffield Utd
- 0-3 Hull followed by his bizarre hysteria in the middle of the pitch and all was fans' fault

As I mentioned earlier, I feel you've finally gone mad but I'll play along.

Q: How many of the games listed did the AWAY team play with 10 men for most of the game. In a must win type scenario. And register no shots on target.

Go on, face facts. Your blind hatred of all things Mick has finally pushed you too far. Stay off the sherry.

Everything somehow was fine for certain brigade. All of sudden first half of the Brentford game and todays match becomes a reason to moan for them.

Don’t have access to shots on target for those matches but today we managed a grand total of 2, both free kicks! So that’s no shots on target from open play against 10 men for a half

You do know that we have scored 6 goals all season don't you?

You do know that we haven't won a match all season don't you?

My hatred of all things McCarthy has nothing to do with that. Easy for you to turn into that when you are unable to cope with the facts. Loads of poor performances in the last couple of seasons were never a problem for you.

And you were like a bellend towards angry/upset TWTD fans under him...... today though the kind of performance where we fail to threaten an opponent somehow 'upsets' you.

Every game is a must win scenario. Those games were diabolical, as was today. To deny either is stupid. A bit of balance never hurt anyone.

I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt but he's done very poorly here and is looking like our worst ever manager and that is saying something. He didn't start with a great squad before he chopped and changed it around but he's taken a pretty naff team and turned it into total garbage - and the football is atrocious too, makes Mick's stuff look like Inter at times.

He won't likely last past Christmas.

It's time to make the best of it.

Shots on target v relegation threatened Hull when we desperately needed the points for a Play Off charge? Two.

Burton back in February? One.

I'm deflated because today I could see that the team aren't buying into what the manager is asking. That's a big, big issue and goes far beyond whether I think PH is up to the task or if we're now in a better position since MM's departure.

The game against Cardiff when Bamba went mad. Never easy to beat 9 man defences. See every England game.
