KEEPER!! AGAIN?!?

Jesus wept!! So weak. So, so weak. Poor decision, executed badly. We’ve been so lucky not to be 3 or 4 down thanks to him.

Did Rice get his software from the Post Office?

Slightly worse than Parkin, possibly better than Cheesewright.

It was Lowry.

They’re faster, sharper, more direct, more aggressive, more determined, more physical, better game plan, that’s all I can think of at the minute.

Their centre forward is demolishing both our centre halves on his own.

Remind me why we ostracised Joe Low again?

Not at all. I made my mind up six months ago. I was correct.

But we were already bottom of the league. So that’s just consistency. And that’s what we’re looking for.

The Good: Our passing seems crisper and more deliberate than before the Summer (Grimmer asides) with less aimless hoofball. The kit looks quite nice.

The Bad: Absolutely everything else. A horror show from the goalkeeper, shambolic defending and no threat on goal whatsoever.

Tilley, Quitirna and Fink on please.

Doddsy and his bank of analysts look utterly baffled. It’s almost hilarious how bad we’ve become since the wealth rolled in.

The terrifying thought is that we might be seeing what a Mike Dodds side looks like when he doesn’t have three of the best defenders in the division to call on. :grimacing:

This reminds me of when we played West Ham U21s in the Bayo era. They played neat and tidy football but Wycombe bullied them. It was 3-0 or something.

Keeper looks a bit at sea.

Can’t seem to push the full backs on though. A lot is quite neat and tidy. But we need Harvie and Junior. Im guessing Henderson on Boyce Munce would be starters aswell.

Fred having a bit of the Andy Baird treatment and getting kicked a bit.

With Dudds in charge, I fear we may have to get used to it. I’m trying to give the guy some encouragement and time but it’s very hard with this “my team, my set up” and the deluded “he’s a great coach” which has a certain emperor’s new clothes feel to it.

We look ok knocking the ball about under no pressure in the middle, but clueless in their box and hopeless in ours.

We could make a couple of obvious changes (Harvie for Anders, move Allen to the middle and Junior for Lowry) but i’m not sure what difference it would make.

How bad is the standard of the Danish league?

I can’t tell if the gameplan is poor or execution is the issue? Some of these waywards passes and goalkeeper errors aren’t necessarily down to the management/tactic.
