It's not a must win game, it's a glorified post season friendly.

Must win ?

Its a end of season dead rubber between 2 relegated teams.

It couldn't be less must win if it tried

Maybe but it’s looking like it will be 3 million less in prize money.

MIght be a good thing. It's not as though the current management/board have shown they can spend money effectively.

£3m to the club, was a kind of "must win".
The players playing it down, but we all know it was a must win game,and yet again we fail to do so.
We haven't beaten ANY of the bottom teams around us.

McKenna well and truly found out and certainly looks a one trick pony tactically.

It's not a nothing game; but it really is indictative of how poor we have been this season, on the pitch & on the touchline.

It's a nothing game because we are already relegated. Whichever way you look at it, whatever the result of today, it means nothing.

This idea that managers have Plan B, C and D is so ridiculous. It’s based on literally 0 evidence at all.

Managers have Plan A and iterations of Plan A.

Well lets be honest, even if we accept the only a plan A argument it was good enough to create at least 5 times more chances to win than the opposition.... other thanrun on the pitch and put the ball in the net himself what else is he expected to do?

Which will probably be coming out of McKenna's personal pocket anyway. Can't see him staying on a £6m a year contract while we're in the Championship.

Although our iterations of Plan A generally tend to be late-hour substitutions of lesser players charged with occupying the same spaces, and doing the same things that failed to make inroads for their substituted betters.

Ok, dispense with the universally used term, plans A,B,C and use the phrase,

"change their approach, adapt, modify when your current tactics isn't working or the same issues keep arising".

Unfortunately Mckenna doesn't do this. Eg when our midfield of 2 is constantly being over run, or when one up front isn't working, why not CHANGE something, instead of constantly repeating the same approach.

If people on here feel I can't get taken seriously for raising this point, then they too, like McKenna, have their heads stuck in the sand. It's not a criminal act to question, and that's all I've ever done.

Even allowing for the massive step up, which even McKenna himself has struggled with, doesnt mean he couldn't have tried to change his approach. Indeed, given the abysmal results this season its even more incredible that he has tried something different. He hasn't even been able to mastermind a win over two poor relegation teams.. I presume thats acceptable to the masterminds on here then? Would McKenna still have a job at any other club given his record this season, I seriously doubt it.
