Isn't that the fix, if another poster doesn't like what I have to say then I actively encourage them to do that, however I don't believe slating them, calling them sados and unreasonable is really the best move for it. I haven’t called anyone a saddo etc but those that do can be equally tedious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were there for the taking, we had the advantage. the rambling of someone who knows absolutely nothing about football first let me mention Burton and Sunderland. But now let me explain how the championship table works each team plays all the others home and away they get 3 points for a win and 1 for a draw Fulham finished on 88 points Derby finished on 75 doesnt that give you some sort of clue which was the better team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you set up well, and prepare your team, you can beat anyone in this league. No team is unbeatable. So what if they finished above is? Set your team up well and you can win.

If you set up your team well, it doesn't matter as much if you have inferior players. Cardiff didn't have better players than Fulham, they were better as a team.

Personaly I would have preferred rowett to have tried to take fulham by surprise and picked a more team attacking line up and said go out and go he’ll for leather to score then shore up later if needed rather than the expected keep it tight but that’s just me and we may have got hammered doing that too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do wonder if Gary's over cautiousness as a manager is connected to the fact he was a defender during his footballing day's.....

If be interested to see what our previous managers player roles were (I know Mac was a forward) What he did was /is kind of the perceived wisdom ,, keep it tight , get the crowd frustrated ,all the old cliches,the problem is we don’t have good enough players to do it and as such catching them cold may have brought better result s ,, the style of play arguments/ opinions are valid and there is a place for what rowett appears to advocate ( personaly I enjoy both styles if played right ) but we really don’t have good enough players to play it ,it can be enjoyable and exciting to watch but you have to have players who can pass the ball ,can control the ball ,can make the right choices and who have end product ,,, don’t know if anybody else was screaming at our lot when they were trying to play out from the back too and were just so poor they kept losing the ball in really dangerous areas ?
