RE: The Owls v Exeter City L1 Match Thread - Statesideowl - 24-04-2023
I was at said Forest Green game. We should've won 10-0 if chances were taken that day.
The football still wasn't great despite the scoreline. FG are just that awful.
You're exactly right though, Kev.
He's so obsessed with defending to the point he neglects the need to attack.
He's unaware that Ipswich probably have as many clean sheets as us, except they have actual strikers capable of scoring at the same time from attacking football.
If our midfield wasn't so shite and flimsy, it'd be able to hold the ball better instead of going backwards and putting the keeper, defenders under pressure. He's obsessed with this 5 man midfield that can't make the ball stick long enough to move forward.
Anyway. Tomorrow night's results will wrap it up when the top two win.
If the buffoon were actually that good at seeing in to the future he'd already know that we were in the Playoffs after he lost to Burton, that was the final straw.

Yep, we limped through the 'great unbeaten run' with plenty of 1-0's & 2-1's along with all the draws. About three games where we won comfortably from what I can (be bothered to) remember

Pigs need 3pts from 4 games for promotion..even they won't bottle this !!! Luton look set to be back in the playoffs string favourite after dispatching the fiddlers away tonight !!!
Luton were in the conference ( nationwide ) league when clownsiri took over ..ffs !!!
And I'll say it again even when we've won 5-0 it's never been convincing with Moore it could all have gone the other way at anytime !!! That's how shit he has made us !!!!
RE: The Owls v Exeter City L1 Match Thread - Statesideowl - 25-04-2023
22 clean sheets for us.
21 clean sheets for Ipswich. They've also scored a lot more..
Even Bolton have 21 clean sheets.
So for all Moore's defensive focus, he hasn't actually been defensively better than his promotion rivals but noticeably worse at scoring goals.
All these stats need writing down for him then rolling up and smacking around his dome.

He's started flapping and saying he won't talk about injury news from now on and focos on burying his head in the sand along with the sheep that pay to watch this garbage..first signs of him getting the sack hopefully..it usually starts like this !! Problem is we have a child as a chairman who will wait till we are in more trouble before doing his job !

Injuries are almost irrelevant now as our season is about to be over.
After tonight's games we'll be 4pts and 5pts behind needing one or both of them to collapse in their final two games.
Even if they did somehow collapse. We wouldn't beat Derby on the final day with this buffoon having one eye elsewhere for whatever reason.
It's not happening. Plymouth switched out six players for their last game and won comfortably.
We only seem to be able to get results by flogging the same donkeys. The thought of making six changes would give Darren Draw a nervous breakdown.
Even with Windarse and Byers and Heneghan to replace Iorfa the clown, I still wouldn't have enough faith in Moore playing to the squads strengths and instead repeating the Sunderland semi finals.
We've an Academy that produces nothing. The talented ones either leave or get poached. Darren doesn't give youth a chance.
If our academy is so poor that it can't get kids ready for the standard of football in Division 3 then close the academy and save a few quid FFS. This is where Championship and some Premier League Clubs send their kids to harden up.
How bad can the kids be in training at the side of Iorfa, Bakinson and Wilks?
Moore said "There's still a lot of football to be played" when asked about promotion at the EFL awards.
This buffoon is either delusional or quietly admitting there's 4 games left for us...

Time for the inevitable.
Plymouth already knocking on Brizzles door, won't be long now.
Ipswich and Dingles fairly evenly matched after 15 mins but Ipswich will prevail.

Bristol Rovers down to ten men
RE: The Owls v Exeter City L1 Match Thread - Imre varadi - 25-04-2023
Rovers red card that's that one done then ..concentrate on Barnsley not trying cos it might help us !!
RE: The Owls v Exeter City L1 Match Thread - Statesideowl - 25-04-2023
I know right, what a stroke of luck for Plymouth.
They've certainly had the Stooges backing this season, with that VAR goal and all.
Playing til the 96th minute until they score last week.
Barnsley on top at the moment.
