We are going up. No doubts whatsoever. helps if you only play 2 attacking players... DCFC Kicks, RoyMac5 and Wolfie20 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Paul Warne actually overachieving? Peterborough have only got 1 point out of their last 5 games. Lost four on the bounce (more a dead cat bounce).

kevinhectoring Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 5 minutes ago, Caerphilly Ram said: But he changed things and got the win? I understand what went before wasn’t enjoyable to watch but how can Warne not be due some credit for picking a side that kept a clean sheet, that battled with a bullying side, and making the subs to get us the 3 points?! Some people really won’t give him any dues, it’s surely ok to say some of it was bad and he did what he needed to…. Eventually I don’t mind that set up. Needed NML to play well which he didn’t and things were much better with Smith. But if Warne sticks with a fortress 3 at the back and gets our midfielders in the right places we’ll get better and generally win something nil. Ward will be very effective in that set up. Just wish we’d play more through the middle and that we were more connected Such an instinctive strike from Sibley, clean as a whistle. Didn’t miss the players’ captain. Adams is fabulous and Bradley after his early season wobbles is looking excellent. Patrick Rams, ariotofmyown, SKRam and 2 others 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eoghan1884 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 So Warne Confirms Collins out for the season and we will probably sign a free agent as we have money to spend through birds transfer fee. Caerphilly Ram and RoyMac5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapeTownRams Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Glad for the win obviously. But let’s not have the fluked result (cos that’s what it is and was) disguise a desperate performance created to a large extent by a woeful tactician of a manager. Don’t give me the line that it was PW’s sub of Sibs that got us the win. It was just luck, no more. Plus a large dose of desperation. I can accept bad performances and understand the pressure on the players, particularly at home. But our setup was appalling. If we had gone attacking mode from the beginning (when Stevenage would realistically just be looking to get to HT at 0-0), scored two goals by H-T and then reverted to a back 5, then there would have been some logic to events. But PW’s talk about it being better to go for a win ( and risk losing) rather than draw is total BS. Talk is cheap but not matched by actions. Stevenage deserved a draw. We got (very) lucky. Yes, we are where we are in the table and that’s good. But i am reminded of a tv interview with Matt Le Tiss who said that whilst Southgate was a nice guy he couldn’t help feeling that we would never win a tournament with him as manager and that he almost felt that with the players England have he( Le Tiss) could have managed them to a Euro final and WC semi. I feel the same about PW- it’s a ‘thanks Paul’ but no more. I have always been supportive of him but after today I seriously question his real credentials, yes, even acknowledging the current league position we find ourselves in. strawhillram, Archied, DCFC Kicks and 12 others 7 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Recall Brown, get Gayle in, get Wash and Waggy back fit. Give Sibley more in the final third. Shop around for another out of contract - tall holding striker. SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
