This.

Sometimes you have to play through people to make things happen.

We've not had a shot on target from open play yet. The only reason we're still in this game is because Scunnie are absolute cack.

Last couple of games are a good reminder of just how consistently bad you have to be to get relegated. Three comfortably mid table teams who can barely string passes together.

This ref is a proper homer.

Brophy wins free kick on edge of the box that never was.

Don't knock it, very rare we get to say the ref is biased and on our side!

Until Jobi has had a chance to tear up Ross' handiwork we won't really know what he's capable of. We're just going to have to suffer through the remainder of the season. My concern is that our results and performances will be so uninspiring that Jobi won't be afforded to the chance to carry on next season. I'd like him to have a transfer window and at least half a season (from the start) to implement his ideas. If it still looks the same in November/December then we might have to get someone experienced in.

the rest of this season though... pure endurance. Its going to be rough.

Another garbage performance, 1 attempt on target in 90 mins.

Close the door behind you Jobi and enjoy a career in the medka. Get a proper manager in to sort this shambles out.

As it has been for most of the 50+ years I've supported the O's, with the odd bright spot.

What is that old saying again ," insanity is trying the same thing over and over again and expecting different results ". Things are not going to change unless we change formation or actually bringing in an experienced manager. Jobi seems to be doing exactly the same things as Ross did.
