Team vs Bristol

So Hwang is out until the new year - hamstring injury.

DW making out this is a massive loss (trying any excise to save his job) - said Hwang was in fine form scoring lots of goals. We will try our best to find a solution.

Forshaw, Gunn and Rowe all back training and looking ready for Sunday as long as there are no issues after training tomorrow.

Hanley should be back for Ipswich
Sargent, Sorensen and Gibson should be back for WBA

So there you go if by a miracle we have no more injuries then DW will keep his job until after WBA and let's see how it goes then as everyone will be fit.....my god he has to go if we lose/don't win tomorrow.

Asked about BK comments on getting a younger squad as the age of it now is too high -

'Look It’s obvious. We can and like to reduce the age of this squad, but this means the contracts need to run down or get we get offers for the older players, so this is a plan for the future. This is no secret.'

So basically offering two/three year deals to older players wasn't probably the smartest move hey Webber/DW - how after one season we are going back to what we were doing before under DF - This club.

DW continues saying that just because they are older in age probably doesn't mean they are older in experience - so does that mean he signed players that can't deal with the pressure?? He then says that we basically rushed into signings because of the situation at the time (basically Batth and maybe Hwang) - 'Some of the signings we made we did late as we had to react, so I know why we have done this.'

The guy is coming across as an idiot - we knew we had an injury to Sargent and left it until the last minutes even with dw saying we don't need to act as we have cover and the same with the central defence - he knew Hanley was out long term, he knew Tompkinson was injured and possibly going on loan they must have known Omobamidele was leaving yet waited until it was closing time at the jan window.

DW says he has spoken about players he wants in jan with MA and BK and hopefully we can do something.....that is if you're still here DW!

DW says that maybe Delia showing negativity towards the fans helps but it is hard to contain - the fans show their negativity towards me, the players and owners too - all round it doesn't help.

He says that he knows some of the reasons why we are doing so badly and he then says 'if we can turn this around then everyone will be celebrating and will be happy' --- he said IF! doesn't sound too confident.

DW says he takes full responsibility for the loss and performance at Watford - Funny because Barnes said it was the players fault.

DW says he will not get driven away by the noise from some fans ---- of course not you want any compensation due if you got sacked.

I don't remember this but he says that over four months ago all the fans were screaming with joy and celebrating and he was doing a good job.' Were we??

DW thinks the defence was okay at Watford it was the ball-possession that was to blame.
 
Such a poor squad that I think any 11 will lose with DW negative setup

Gunn

Fisher
Warner
Batth
Giannoulis

McLean
Lima

Rowe
Sara
Sainz

Idah

Subs

Reyes - McCallum - Stacey - Duffy - Barnes - Nunez - Gibbs - Fassnacht - Placheta

Something like that - Lima in as the only defensive midfielder we have it seems
 
Poor players the lot of them . It will probably be 10 minutes ok at the start then let Bristol have the game
 
After today's results, even if we win the next two games and all above us outside the top 6 lose, we will still only be 7th.
 
Because the players are so weak minded and have poor mentality (Hwang injury shocking them is one example) I do think that we need to be at least three up to be sure of three points. We all know that If we go two up tomorrow if Bristol score to make it 2-1 we all know what will happen and so will the players
 
We need fans to stop going to games en masse. Delia saying rubbish about how fans at Portsmouth sing even when 6-0 down, she ignores the fact it was like that at Norwich but a constant failure to capitalize on success which eroded the good will. She ignores despite watching some of the worst football seen at this club in my lifetime and getting relegated to League One the fans bought season tickets at a record breaking number. She ignores the fact that fans have kept coming with a promise in future investment when promoted only to see it never materialise.
My big question to her, her husband and Attanasio, is if we are to be a self-funded club, what do we need you for? Why do yo need to be in control? Why not make an equal share amongst supporters who can vote for a board to make the decisions on the fans behalf and have to answer to the fans? It will undoubtedly help the self-funded model as any money they are taking out can go back into the club.

The way I feel about the club now is so much worse than anger, it is apathy. When we score I don't cheer or get excited when we concede I just tut and think thought so. A win doesn't excite me a loss doesn't bother me. I just don't care, my frustration is more towards the fact that something that used to be a bright point in my life and something to enjoy win lose or draw is now just nothingness.

I actually don't mind McLean at centre back, he looked better than the other morons. What I don't like is that Duffy is the one who stays. I think he and Barnes have something in their contract about starting. Either that or Wagner is somehow even more inept than originally thought, and it's not like he has a high standing.

No Sainz again, looks good in the 3 minutes he gets per game but naaa.
 
Strange line up ! perhaps DW is trying to get himself the sack so he can get out of this sad club !
Yeah, strange how Batth is dropped considering he has been best of the lot.

Doesn't say much that Batth is dropped for a central Midfielder. Batth and Warner must be pleased.

If we lose he'll get lots more criticism for that
 
We are doing the usual slow build up crap and going backwards.

Interesting because this is one of first games that DW has fit team....Gunn, Duffy, Barnes and Rowe all back
