O'Neil In, Out and Shaking it all about

[The Dude]

Too early to write the season off.

Not when you consider our form going back to the Cup exit v Coventry.

In the PL we've amassed 6 points in 17 games. That's likely to be 6 points over 19 games (half a season).

We've been shit since the attacker injury crisis of March. In that time GON has shown he doesn't have a clue when the chips are down...

We now have a defensive injury crisis and Gary seems as bereft of ideas as ever, incapable of the tactical nous required to navigate out of it.

It took him 6 matches to identify Bellegarde was largely ineffective in the role he was being asked to play.

Of course this whole mess isn't entirely of his own making, for which I have sympathy, but getting rid is our best chance of survival this season...

The best chance of survival moving forward if Fosun are sticking around is to remove Shi from the club entirely. We all know he's central to the mismanagement of the club since Covid.

Fuck off Shi.

Usual nothing piece from PTS but what is interesting is the comments, usually the Athletics commentards are very forgiving of FOSUN and GON. Not so much now.

Someone has paid the price. Impossible to know where the responsibility lies, but continually conceding from unmarked corners isn't a good look for a set piece coach

Ridiculous

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

The Jackson, Wood and Pinnock goals were just inexplicable.

Whatever Wilson's theory is, I don't want to hear it. See ya.

 

[YoungWolf]

but wait, I thought he was the most detailed person O’Neil had ever met (apart from himself)?

We don't actually know if it was him that was responsible or if he was just a useful idiot.

I thought we were shit last season from set pieces too.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

What the living FUCK was he doing?! Look at it!

 

[Trips]

No plans to replace him.

"Guys, we keep conceding from set pieces, let's sack the set piece coach"

"Good call, shall we start looking for somebody more qualified?"

"Nah, probably be fine"

 

[Quirkafleeg]

That prick Derry next please...

They can have my esteemed advice for £200.

"Mark that guy at the back stick FFS".

There you go, an improvement straight away.

Followed by GON and Jeff

 

[SSB]

That prick Derry next please...

Cutler will be next.

There are a lot of details in life we're better off not knowing innit

 

[NicholasG1973]

I didn’t even know we had a set piece coach.

Not a bad gig if you can get it.

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

We’ve left a man unmarked on corners so many times this season that I can only think that it was deliberate. No idea why though!

By the looks of it neither did our defence

More a symptom of an overall badly coached side than a strategy imo.

 

[Kenny]

Remember early on in pre season when we scored from a free kick routine....happier times

 

[sycophantia]

My memory is fucked so apologies if I'm wrong but last season (maybe the previous one) didn't we have one of the best records for the first half of the season for defending set pieces?
