davenportram Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 1 minute ago, Tombo said: I mean the subs were made on 75 minutes. So are we honestly saying that two changes gave us an XI that is so lacking in ability that they cannot resist the unstoppable tide of Rotherham United for just 15 minutes? Especially when we didn't need any more goals, 11 men behind the ball. One goal as a consolation was bad enough, but all three of the goals they needed for a point is beyond belief. Therefore, I cannot believe it. I refuse to believe the team we were left with from 75 minutes onwards was that poor. when the formation is changed, you remove the outlet ball and are outnumbered in midfield you create issues. So yes. Again wassall has said formations dont matter, you seem to agree, you are Darren Wassall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Mel should go one step further and rather than going in the dressing room after the game to ******* the lads how about going in to replace DW. what must be going off on that bench? Craig short another defender, Kevin Philips a player that has been around in high level football. Surely one of them can see the substitutions were a joke and maybe have a word with Daren "I don't know what I am doing" Wassal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninos Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 He picked a good lineup. But It's pretty basic managing to be very careful to protect your lead and preserve your win. DW didn't do that and now he needs to shoulder the blame. And RAMAGE is wrong that the time was right to take Thorne off. He should have left him in AND added Hanson and/or Buxton too. PROTECT THE DAMN LEAD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfc_ryan Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Martin & Thorne play two vital positions in that 4-3-3, and do it very well. Don't take them off, or at least replace them with a like for like replacement! To think people wanted us to cash in on Martin in Jan LOL! If your going to make a sub take the wingers off. Thats what Mac did and it seemed to work most of the time. By the sounds of it we played like the Derby of old for 70 odd mins so thats a positive at least...

harryram Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Well done Wassal, surely the 3-0 would have been a great confidence booster. But thanks to some crazy changes can see the teams confidence be in pieces. How come every man and his dog can see Wassal needs to go but Mel will leave him in.

Ramdrive Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Had to tell the missus "you know when I said 3 nil, well...." she just laughed loudly and shook her head (she isn't a football fan). Still can't believe what happened, we won't be in the playoffs much longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDeadlySaul Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 We saw what happened last season when we don't have Martin and a holding midfielder in the side. So why did we change the whole tactical shape after we were comfortably ahead? Reminds me of when we were against Wolves and we were starting to get on top, but then Wassall decided to make a few changes and we lost all of our momentum and ended up losing. I also blame the players for throwing it away, but I'm pretty sure if had any decent manager we wouldn't have this happen to us. Even Clough wasn't so stupid to do something like that.
