That wasn't very good was it? 15:52 - Mar 27 with 1457 viewsSteve_M

Lots of endeavour but two fairly poor sides cancelling each other out. A few times we got into good positions only to make a mess of the final ball but scrappy and unthreatening for the most part. Toto blocked Wigan's only good chance.

KVY isn't offering a lot but that's only to be expected after so long out.

First goal wins this. If either side can manage that.

It's the same senior pros we've had here for 3 seasons and they're playing much like we've come to expect them to.

Like much of the last 3 years, it’s fooking terrible. No intensity, no sustained pressure. But lots and lots of feeble passes sideways and backwards. It’s tiring watching us play

If I didn't know, I'd say 2 bottom 3 sides.

Yep. Definitely a case of both sides losing 0-0 at half time.

KVY looks like someone who's played 15 minutes in 15 months or whatever it is, though his pace has helped him get a couple of good interceptions in that other players might have not. Edwards playing utterly crap balls towards him on the occasions he's gone to overlap hasn't helped.

Said on another thread, the 3 behind Norwood is well off where it needs to be which is seriously hampering chance creation, as has been the case for a long time now. Will certainly be an area Cook gives a lot of attention to over the summer.

Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand.

The two managers know each other's tactics and game plans andyes, just cancelling each other out.

I guess Cook is sacrosanct at present so the players are getting all the blame, but objectively, let's face it, after some 5 games and a week's training there has been no significant improvement whatsoever. Early days for Cook obviously, but he needs to start making a difference with these players, let's hope for a much improved second half.

He doesn't need to start making a difference with these players because
A: they can't be bothered
B: they're not good enough and..
C: some of them won't be here next season.

Next season is his challenge.

In which case we should have given Lambert much more slack.

How long did Lambert have to turn it around.

Okay I'll bite. Your trolling is too subtle though :)

Lambert was cheered off as we were relegated. He had a transfer window in that season. And then four more.

Football has never seen someone so incompetent given so much slack.

I'm being tongue in cheek.

Of course Lambert was awful and should have gone a long time ago.

But constantly excusing the new manager for a load of reasons which weren't afforded to the previous manager is desperate at best.

Lambert was excused though. He was given the proverbial free hit innit.

Except Lambert was the man who created this lacklustre environment over the course of numerous appalling years in charge. Cook has had a few games, and minimal training sessions to polish the turd.

Bloody hell, the first half was better than the second.

Listen, Lambert had to go, it was toxic, his recent managerial record didn't do him any favours either and he did have plenty of time, but our squad is largely overrated as has been for a while. The people who were claiming our squad should walk this league were talking utter tripe.

Go through them one by one, mostly average, ageing, or un proven at this level at best. The one player Lambert paid a fee for (from the league below) KVY has been a class above. I'm excusing Hurst's recruitment as some of that was crazy.
