Seth's left foot Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 I'd prefer to place the blame for our Wembley defeat at the feet of that cheating ******* Gary O'Neil, had Russell scored QPR would've had to come at us and we'd have finished them off. Wait, is that the Keogh pitchfork gang coming back for another go... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yip it was however if your player of the year is fit and they are old guys who don't like chasing runners it doesn't take rocket science to change it when the prize is the biggest in world football , a ridiculous decision in my eyes and we have got worse every year since then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That starting XI earned the right to start, Bryson didn't. I'd have said Bamford deserved the start more than Bryson at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all about opinions mate but if someone who has scored 16 goals and the same amount of assists that season didn't deserve a start then I don't know what does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Bryson should have come on for Hendrick, not Hughes. Also Bamford instead of Dawkins, considering we needed a goal at that stage and he would have been the bigger goal threat. All in hidsight of course. We did enough and got in enough decent position to win that game easily. A lack of conviction upfront and a collection of errors in the same move at the back cost us.

RadioactiveWaste Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 I wonder how many CVs they had in the post in the days after Pearson was suspended? "Key Achievements: Keeping Notts Forest in the Championship. Key Attributes: Excellent media relations Reputation: So high that I turned down both the Scotland job and the Rangers job when it was clear I wasn't going to get either and the St Mirran job when I was! Philosophy: kick it out, right out" or "Key achievements: Won Dutch League, International experience Key skills: tuft management, umbrella selection, technical coaching Management style: looking relaxed with a cup of coffee" or "Strong record of academy management, brilliant motivational speaker, not Paul Clement" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said I dont think forests foreign gamble has got much longer left in the job, ironically they'll probably end up with Pearson before xmas If we get someone from abroad that doesn't speak English might last a bit longer with Mel.

I think it's important to look at the context of the tie in this situation. Brighton always had to attack as they lost the first leg which meant that they would be more spaces in behind for us, Hendrick's much better in a counter attacking team like we were that day and countered at pace. However, at Wembley QPR were always going to sit 10 men behind the ball as they didn't have the legs to combat our midfield. In this case Martin would have been isolated, which he was and he had no support. Hendrick didn't get close to Martin that day like Bryson would have done. Hendrick probably did deserve to be in the team based on merit but in hindsight I would have played Bryson and Bamford instead of Hendrick and Russell respectively Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
