I'm in my 50's with arthritis, yet somehow manage to get up and go to work on a building site for 8 hrs a day, sometimes having to take lots of painkillers. I'm fooked off hearing about tired players. We are not a fooking champions league team with a massive squad and i'm sick of hearing about all this squad rotation bollox. Players are supposed to be fitter than ever nowadays and even part time sides manage to keep turning out and giving us a game. Buckley said before the game on RH that you need a settled side so players can build partnerships and understandings. He never chopped and changed and we played nearly 70 games one season with virtually the same side, beating all before us. Winning players don't get tired and Hurst is way to keen to play at being a manager.
Good post Ginny

Good post. They wouldn't have been tired if we'd been top of the table after Saturday. Too much tinkering again from Hurst but as usually, he doesn't address the issues. He only adds to them.

McKeown needs some time to get back to basics away from competitive games His confidence is shot to pieces.
Agree, in my opinion he is the best keeper in this woeful league, but meningitus is a very serious illness. I wonder if he came back too soon, even if he is now feeling fit, he wasn't right earlier and his confidence is shot. PH will know Jame's character, I would take him out of the firing line by loaning an experienced keeper for a month, giving James a couple of weeks off, grab a flight somewhere cheap n warm and come back ready. McKeown has plenty of credit in the bank, he's been superb for us though he has flaws in his game, no doubt he could have moved on so we owe him patience. But for his own good, give him a break.

Great post! so mad just thinking about our centre midfield today unbelievable when you think about the likes of Cunningron and Groves, what makes it worse Disley looks to me even at 34 one of the fittest in the squad he run the show last week.

Not having this tiredness nonsense at all. I bet every one of those players dropped today wanted to play. Disley was superb on Saturday and doesn't play?! It's over-complicating bollocks.

I thought Macca looked a bit dodgy before his reported illness. Maybe he was suffering for a while before it got bad enough to be diagnosed? Whatever the issue, he needs a break as he's become complacent. He needs challenging IMO.

He went for that clown Robinson over Disley? Robinson was an utter disgrace for 75 minutes, how on earth did he stay on the pitch that long? Is PH blind? Even Robinson was looking towards the touchline after we made our first subs, he wanted to end his terrible day. Him and the rest of the crowd with eye in their heads. We only had Craig Disley, probably the best midfielder in this league on the bench.
Absolute shambles, Hurst has to be under serious pressure already.

Yeah he wasn't as good last year as he was the 2 beforehand. Could have been the lack of a senior backup or Croudson leaving, but this year is something else. Definitely needs a break.

As much as i am deflated i never put my money into the club to ask for it back, sorry.
Agreed. More of a statement of how fed up I am of this year in year out. We have a sqaud that should beat every team in this league with no worries at all. But with Mr Hurst still in charge we are going nowhere fast. Sorry Paul, you may be nice bloke and have brought in some great players but a manager you are not. Please step down before its to late.
