Keep up Grendel, it's obvious I was talking about the Championship.
We finished 20th in one season at Highfield road didn't we?
Yeah 4 points off relegation (02/03?) and 19th another season 2 points off relegation (04/05) prior to sisu.We finished 20th in one season at Highfield road didn't we?
Who were these players and where did they go?I think he has wasted time trying to sign players that were unlikely to come and has then missed more realistic targets as they gave gone elsewhere
One was definitely the centre half Wilson went to a championship club, you'd assumed we approached turner before he went to Burton. I'd assume we tried to get Armstrong back too.Who were these players and where did they go?

Yes we had some poor seasons but never like we have had while they have been here.We finished 20th in one season at Highfield road didn't we?

So if he hadn't have tried to get these players would be have been criticised for not trying?One was definitely the centre half Wilson went to a championship club, you'd assumed we approached turner before he went to Burton. I'd assume we tried to get Armstrong back too.

Just for you Grendel..... Take note of when SISU took charge. I never included L1 finishes... It's too depressing..

Is he going for the manager cliche in 60 seconds record?
It's as if other teams haven't played loads of games.
I'm not having that older players wouldn't come here, not after the hunt, ramage and Henderson experiment.
Name me one thing we have had to cheer about since they arrived?
A couple of cracking wins v Barnsley.
Div 1 was the Championship... just went through another rebrand. In old money, all Division 2.2001–02

And Fleetwood have the gayest goal music ever!
Wright on for Agyei
I think he has wasted time trying to sign players that were unlikely to come and has then missed more realistic targets as they gave gone elsewhere
Who were the realistic ones he missed then?
Aye, as I pointed out earlier in the thread, you semen staines!Older posters will know it as the theme tune to Captain Pugwash
As proved here, case closed.Captain Pugwash isn't it?
I work with a relative of Ben Turner. She told me that neither Coventry or Birmingham had approached him this summer.One was definitely the centre half Wilson went to a championship club, you'd assumed we approached turner before he went to Burton. I'd assume we tried to get Armstrong back too.

Agree with Wright just wish you would have given Bigi a mention as it was one of his better perfomancies, now waiting for AA to help get me and my family home, brand new jeep and it has failed me, such is a sky blue fans luckSo i can't get to games hardly anymore due to work but today I saw them for the first time. I was impressed for nearly 60 minutes watching us play the ball around, even at 1 down we didn't drop our heads and we looked like one of those teams that was about to step it up a gear at any moment. Fleetwood got a fortunate break away after we looked like scoring and Page was hopeless. But you felt we could beat this poor looking side, we needed to want it. That seemed to be be problem...it looked like we didn't want it badly enough.
I think the frustration for Mowbray must be the fact he has injuries to key players and one or two he has brought in are no better or worse than what we have.
Turned out to be a frustrating and disappointing afternoon all round. I think with players back and a bit more fight in them we will start winning but for all the fancy football from the back we play we have yet to make an impression at the net!
Harries is not yet there at this level, Turnball is good, Page totally lacks discipline and Haynes would be a better option. Aghei is still learning and not a team player and Sordell is either not fit or can't be bothered often losing the ball at his feet too easily. The W Brom lad Wright came on and for me showed he was a class above Aghei and Sordell in the time he had...looked really useful. We are missing Fleck and frankly Ricketts should be playing. Steery was average nothing good going on and Stevenson looks to have potential but as with Maddison before him too lightweight.
Overall a competent display of passing ability, looking the better side easily for 55 minutes and if we had an Arma in our side we would have won. Tudgay offers little and looks past his better days.
Still work to be done we need to win one before any rot sets in.
Did Adam Armstrong come to help you?Agree with Wright just wish you would have given Bigi a mention as it was one of his better perfomancies, now waiting for AA to help get me and my family home, brand new jeep and it has failed me, such is a sky blue fans luck

Nice reply unfortunatelyDid Adam Armstrong come to help you?

I think gives it away it's my view, one name to throw in is George Moncur just moved on loan to Peterborough better than anything we gave in midfield, as j have said later on if we haven't missed any and this lot were first choice then maybe something is wrong in the scouting.

All other teams do have the same problem, this is work that should have been done and other clubs will have done in preseason but because our recruitment was slow and a lot of our recruits joined after the season already started we're behind other clubs on this.Don't all the other teams in this league face the same problem though Bear? My point is - TM has just as much opportunity to get his points across to his troops. You don't need to run them ragged, you should know their abilities and explain how they should effectively deploy them (blimy even using a chalk board would do)...he's either not getting the message across, he's clueless, or he's inherited/brought shyte.
