Andicis Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 6 minutes ago, RoyMac5 said: No. Are you unable to follow more than one thread of thought at a time. It was an ironic thread - there's some it seems who think we should be storming the league, held back only by Rooney's lack of nouce! We have a poor squad. But even so Rooney is getting more out of them than most experienced managers would. You thought we should be storming the league last season under Cocu and were unhappy with a 10th place finish. A huge amount of cognitive dissonance going on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just had the hump at the time & had to reply No worries fella, it's not pleasant to watch at the moment, all the crap bits merge into one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuwtfly Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Did Rooney replace Tom Lawrence with young-fullback Festy Ebosele when we needed a goal, or did I imagine that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Initially he was the mutts nuts and now his game's a dogs dinner and after every shot I seem to scream fuckennel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also K9 would’ve never been in the box. To slow. Also can’t jump, so ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You tell me what happened at the end of the season then. You were hugely critical of Cocu who finished 10th place with this squad. You simply do not get to demand fans are patient with Rooney because you like him, when he's currently trying to relegate a squad Cocu got 10th. Of all posters, you were by far the most vocal anti Cocu voice on here, yet seem to be completely fine with Rooney who has us 21st and with half of the goals. It's baffling.

Jourdan Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 1 hour ago, Kernow said: I hope you won’t be offended when I say you’re one of the more pessimistic posters on the forum. Your confidence in our fate is reassuring, so I thank you. I’m still pooping it mind. Nothing to do with optimism or pessimism, it’s just how it is. March and April has always looked a tough run and we have lost something like 8 from 11 away from home since the turn of the year. So if you want to admire anyone’s optimism, it should be those who thought we would get 4-6 points from Blackburn and Preston, and even better those who thought we would get something against Reading and Norwich. After Luton, it was always going to come down to those two final home games to finish the job. I hope we’ll pull out two performances from nowhere and just stay up. But to be honest, I’ve been coming to terms with the possibility of us going down ever since Rooney was appointed. So I am not even fearful or surprised if the worst happens.

Space is the danger, not forwards. Can’t understand this reasoning. Got a 6ft 7 man in box & we’re zonal marking ?♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also what silly changes were made? Lawrence was first man to cut a flat corner out. Gallagher bumped him out of the way and got a free header.

No I think that was Cocu because he'd sold all the strikers. Or something. It's all his fault anyway as others keep asserting. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That quote is sooooo funny. Cocu had us in the relegation zone before he quit/was sacked (you chose). He left us with a threadbare, almost strikerless squad. But yeah it's the same squad for Rooney. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was about to get a fit Bielik back, and in hindsight had a pretty tough run of fixtures to start with. Your biases are so extreme, that's what I find funny.

Now I know you are on the wind up. 1 win in 11 with plenty of winnable games, negative mentality and some baffling selections. Last few games have been slightly improved which is almost more worrying as it feels like we just can't get it right no matter what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we have a squad chosen by Rooney (or whoever) then comment again. Cocu was given money and time, and had good players to start with. He was cack.
