Alarming state today. It basically looks dead, and they’ve put the roller onto mud. They then drown it before both halves, makes it like a skating rink. They reckon they’re going to play an U18 game on that before we play again on Sunday?! |

Christmas was Leicester, and Leicester was Christmas.
That’s us. That’s our culture and our mentality. Staff members on the touch line at full time.
Unless we can persuade the Sheff Wed manager to put a Cifuentes mask on im starting to worry about that one. |

If you’re a young, fit, able referee, and you’ve been stuck in our league for 20 YEARS, without a hint of a promotion, that should tell everyone everything they need to know about your ability. I mean look at some of the stuff they have promoted.

He’s mismanaged Christmas.
Slice it and dice it whichever way you like but you were 3 points off the play offs and on the back of your best performance of the season, with games against 16th, 21st, 23rd and 24th to come and this is what you did with it. |

Some good points mate and I appreciate the thoughtful response.
Field perhaps I lean towards because the stick he gets on socials is just so completely over the top it annoys me.
Agree on the point about the squad. As I said in the report it had issues at full back and CM last year and it still does. It's put the manager in quite a difficult position.
And agree with the last paragraph completely, apart from the 'level of stick' because I think I've gone out of the way to give Stephan the benefit of the doubt as a new manager in a new league at a very difficult club to manage. But I do think this was a bit of a mess. |

I'd certainly be using Hayden a lot more as you know.
But if you replace Madsen with one of those then, as Wilkins said higher up, you'll risk another Oxford H performance. |

Well, look, I actually agree with you on a lot of that.
Yes he has been a vast improvement this year on last, so focus on the positive rather than the negative, fair enough.
Yes, I agree, he's knackered, and has been overplayed, because we don't really have another player like him.
And yes, it does show character to come back from where he was in May to where he is now, and that interview in the summer was great.
So I'll take it, and try and be more conciliatory with him.
My annoyance this week is they've all shown you what they're capable of against Leicester, and then regressed straight back to the mean afterwards, and I've found that very frustrating. He's been one of the worst offenders. |

Absolutely. There's no cover in CM, which is why Varane and particularly Madsen are having to basically play every minute, and if I'm being more conciliatory why they also both look absolutely knackered. |

He didn't want the ball last night. Or on Boxing Day. |
