Thats because he brought all these players on loan or permanent.

Or was he TOLD?
Most likely he had to decide who & how many to clear out to achieve a salary budget. To keep the better players we would have had an overall squad half the strength of how weak it is anyway. It's a no win situation.
But hey let's pat the senior management & owners on the back because we are "cash flow positive" (apparently) & all that.
PUSB
I don’t see how you can blame the keeper if a guy bends one just inside the post, over the wall and at pace. I was more worried by Burge stepping back and actually widening the angle for the second goal. As with Stokes, we can’t afford to have lads learning their trade in this relegation scrap.
He let second goal in at near post and the free kick was always gonna be a duplicate of the free kick prior. Hemust have known the player was a capable of getting past the wall
Much more intent for 40 mins and if you can't see we lined up differently today you need a coaching course. Where it was the same was errors and they were basic. Also different was Mowbray not talking shite after the match
Incomprehensible. But a bigger mistake was letting Baker go. And allowing us to face a relegation battle without an experienced goalie, especially when we already had one, is unforgivable. I cannot foresee anything but relegation.
I think it may turn out to be a blessing in disguise. Had we won TM first game we all would have had said we beat the drop. Now we see there is a lot of work to do and the players will need to listen and TM needs to galvanise them quickly. I think that will now happen. An easy win today and we may have been cocky after it...

The euphoria around the place since TM arrived was palpable. Everyone thought we were now OK. So when I say a blessing in disguise, it could be just that. This defeat kind of helps TM get the message across to the players that there is no magic wand and there is much work to do. I would not be surprised if we now win on Tuesday. All our inadequacies were exposed today and I'm glad in a way so TM can address the frailties rather than mask them over had we won.
I would love to be able to agree with you. But it takes more than a week or so to polish a turd. SP brought players in but he never brought a team together. He tried to find a goalscorer like he had two of at the start of last season to save his arse. He failed. And now Mowbray has a very hard job of making a team that can win with players not good enough.
This is my view of what he has been left with.
GK....Just not good enough at this level. Either lack of experience or not clever enough. I always stuck 1 1/2 players past the post from the line of the ball to the post at a free kick. Curl it around them and you deserve the goal. Be ready to get across the goal for it to go over the top of the wall because they rarely try to curl it around that many players and be very close to the line. If you have the reflexes any decent GK has you should at least get to the ball. You need the confidence and a big enough gob to tell your defence where you want them. And mad enough to dive in where it hurts when you got hurt 5 minutes ago.
Midfield.....We have been left with players that can only or have trained to keep hold of the ball and not try to go forward. Good for the stats but stats don't win games. No bite. No nasty b@stard in the middle to put your opponents on edge. No proper cover for your defence. No proper link between the two.
Strikers......no outstanding striker that can score goals from anywhere. They seem to wait for something to happen instead of trying to make it happen. But none of this is helped with the midfield that we have. They don't seem to work together. They either work to close with the midfield and become a midfielder or they wait around for the ball. This lets the other teams defenders have them well covered and we don't have strikers good enough to continually beat a defence like we had last season.
So which turd should Mowbray try to polish first?
But I don't think it's just down to poor players. I think they are good enough. Just pick the right ones and coach them well and we will improve. TM over to you.
I agree to an extent Torch and I don't blame the loans particularly, but I would say that We kept Mk Dons out through more luck than judgement.
Wholly agree that the midfield is the biggest problem.

One thing we learn from match days
We are not very good
And we're going down Mowbray or no mowbray the change was left to late
Nah, don't agree with that. I will agree it would have been better to do it sooner, but I don't think we'll go down.
IF we don't get a new keeper and stick with Barton and fleck I think we will.
Do we read anything into the fact that Proschwitz wasn't even in the squad on Saturday?

Weird signing that. Pressley gone, another forward coming into the club.
