I mentioned a long way up the thread how, prior to the game, the Hudds fans were complaining about being a weak side with no real guts, playing ineffectual football with too much arsing about at the back, led by a head coach with no real managerial experience but a ton of idealism.
And now they’ve posted this:
Where they are holding us up as a benchmark for pragmatism…how times change.
A few key excerpts for those of a TL;DR persuasion:
“…they were big and physical and bullied us completely. That keeps happening.
We’re most managers wet dream of a team to play against at this level. We think we’re technically good enough to play out from the back and we’re not, which makes any game plan easy.
Press and wait for the mistake. We’re physically weak. We’re mentally weak. We have no pace in the side.
We have no height and physical presence up front. The managerial appointment has been terrible and needs to go immediately, but outside of that, we just haven’t recalibrated to suit this division at all.
(What is needed at this level is) size, it’s playing in the right area, its having pace and power, its getting balls in the box, winning 2nd balls.
We don’t have the profile of player to do any of those things.
We don’t have an experienced lower league manager who knows the score.
This club is all empty ego, it’s a polished stadium, it’s polished social media content, it’s ‘progressive’ managerial appointments and playing in the ‘right way’.
