    DCFC Kicks got a reaction from Chris_Martin in What would McClaren do with this team?

    Surely even Cashin or Solomon would be better at RCB than Buchanan?

    So hopefully the EFL will have checked them and signed them off by January. Though I'm sure the EFL would have no problem taking their time and delaying it as long as possible?

    I can't tell if you're English or not, but if you are and you're not enjoying it that's your choice, but it's making a lot of other people happy. Is it really that surprising that a broadcaster/newspaper is overselling something they're selling? 
    and if you aren't enjoying it, why are you watching it? Patriot Games was on Channel 4 at the same time so you could have been watching Harrison Ford instead.
    (I also agree with everything you said about ITV. I hate ITV and everything it stands for).

    Please Mel, it's not too late. Just give Mac the last game of the season. He's been watching every game so he'll already know exactly what to do. Players like Jozwiak would flourish in his system. Mac's shown he can get an instant impact before, he only needed half-time once vs Ipswich. Just any sort of change could give the team a boost. You can't just let us get relegated whilst doing nothing.

    I think if we go up he will be given time to prove himself, but would expect him gone by Christmas 🎅

    So, I have calmed down after the Northampton defeat. The dust has settled. I can now look calmly over the season as a whole, where we were and how far we have come and so forth, and come to a rational and considered opinion based on all that I know.
    I still want Warne gone.
    Yes, nice bloke, bobble hats, next to no budget, this, that and the other.
    But whatever the outcome from this season: promotion, play-offs, missing out, whatever league we play in next season.....

    I’m not saying we’ve been bad. His approach is clearly working to a large extent. My point was there’s not distinct style or continuity to how we play which creates unpredictability to our performances. I think the teams we’ve battered have mostly been teams who try and play a distinct way or passing way every game, who don’t try and counter us e.g. Bristol Rovers. Warnes style is reactionary to the opposition. 
     
    i really don’t think it’s right to put the reason we lost yesterday all down to luck. Even Warne acknowledged we didn’t play well.
    i also think you’re undervaluing the quality of our players. I don’t think any Northampton player would get in our squad except maybe Hoskins.
    our difficulty signing players doesn’t affect how the manager sets the team up or his playing philosophy.

    What if Wildsmith didn't make a worldie save against Bolton, or if their corner that hit the bar was a few inches lower? 
    If we played better we wouldn't need to rely on one Waghorn chance going in or not.

    My original point was in response to someone who mentioned the foundations seeming to disappear at any given moment. I don't disagree with you that we've been very good in numerous games, but to me they just seem to be one-off games. Our good performance wasn't through a longstanding progression of play style being implemented throughout the season. Everything seems incredibly short term, which is why we lose games like yesterday - because there's no foundational play style to fall back on once the one-off game plan fails. Yes we were unlucky yesterday and could've drawn or won on another day, but the performance wasn't good either.

    DCFC Kicks got a reaction from strawhillram in Paul Warne   
    Its because there are no foundations. Warne just takes every game as it comes and tries to ground out a result by any means. It is working most of the time, but I'm never truly that shocked whenever we lose a game to anyone. It feels like Warne picks one-off tactics for each opponent and hopes they work, but occasionally they don't or the opponent works them out in-game and we lose. There's no longevity or continuity to anything he's implementing.

    I think Blackpool is a good opponent for Warne. We struggle when we're expected to impose ourselves. When the opposition sets up to react to what we're doing, like yesterday, Warne doesn't really know what to do.

    DCFC Kicks got a reaction from Chris_Martin in v Wigan (H) Match Thread   
    If it wasn't Chris Martin, and you just looked at the data, you'd say he was one of the best available out there in terms of free agents. If he's dropping down to L1 anyway, why not? We lack his sort of intelligence up top. He would have buried that chance Collins had early on.
