I know this is glib, but that is his job. It’s literally why he was appointed.
I’m a positive person. I always think this team can turn it round.
Not today. I’ve been worn down. Can’t stand this shite.
Will the postmatch interview be ‘everything is going to plan’ or ‘the players were shit’
Or will he have a new one up his sleeve?
Given the time, Dodds could take us to the national league. Special guy
I don’t think we’ve played as badly as other posters have made out. What I am very worried about is that we have been so dull-witted. If I’ve had 5 pints and I can work out their weaknesses and how to expose them, then how can our manager be so hopeless. Idiot. Low IQ. Going going gone please. Night.
Wouldn’t surprise me.
Fuck sake. Give me Bayo + Kaskett up front instead of the current squad.
I’m not relaxed.
Sadly today we just didn’t manage to get my gameplan enacted. We started off well though.
Since half time we’ve been awful. The master plan against Wing and some kids.
Given how wonderful a guy Dodds is, maybe he can offer his resignation immediately at the final whistle?
I’m not sure he’ll get a post match interview unless we somehow turn it round.
Second half has been sacking territory stuff.
I generally find something to be positive about in most things in life, but I am struggling with 2 things at the moment; one I can chose to do something about which is the toxic level of commentary on this forum recently & the second I can do nothing about which is the lack of grit, energy & footballing nouse being shown by the team so far this season.
So I will take a rest from this forum for a while as its not doing my mental health any good at all (though I will still contribute to the competitions run by @DevC & @railwaysteve )
As for the team, I will always support them as they have been my team for 51 years, I will continue to be frustrated by the fact we cannot play consistently for more than 15 minutes or so in a game, safe in the knowledge that everything else in my life will be fine & at some point the team will click & the performance will come good.
his cargo pants are a sackable offence whatever the score
Even Sam Avery has been taking the piss out of them on 3CR.
Boyd-Munce looks really classy, been great since coming on.
Signs of life here.
He and Junior need to be starting games, and Mags
Definitely - but Reading want it more. Throwing themselves into blocks and challenges with far more conviction than we attack with.
Westergaard has been fantastic since coming on
He’s weak in the tackle
