Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
This is pretty worrying. I can't see where the next win is coming from & that includes Cheltenham away next Sat. Now 8 league games without a win & only 7 goals in those games.
Already this season, we are undoubtedly in trouble.
It seems crazy to say it but if this carries on for another 4 or 5 games then I think Richie may be at risk

We haven't won for god knows how long, the negative mindset does my head in.

The only positive is that all the other teams down the bottom keep losing.

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
Hope all our games get postponed over Xmas because watching this today has been painful, the players look clueless.
It’s all so negative, and soooo poor we kick off trying to not get beat.
We don’t know how to defend
We don’t know how to attack
We can’t take corners
We don’t shoot, and when we do it’s never on target
Not sure how RW turns this around with the players we have available
Only one way this season ends if this carries on…

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
We're in real trouble and no mistake. Absolutely clueless at the moment.
Only highlight was their 3rd goal which was actually very funny.

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
We’ve got no strikers. I don’t blame RW. Piggot been so disappointing. Forde not at the level we need. Agyei the only positive over the last few games.VeganO wrote: ↑Sat Dec 09, 2023 4:49 pm This is pretty worrying.

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
Well, the Magi from the Orient have presented Derby with 3 gift goals. We're all very concerned about goal scoring, but what's happened to our defence? Feel gutted.

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
Looking at the bench there's very few options to change it up. Where is Sanders? Is Galbraith that bad he's not even worth a run out?Stan1972 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 09, 2023 4:55 pm Hope all our games get postponed over Xmas because watching this today has been painful, the players look clueless.

I would say go route one but Pigott isn't winning anything on floor or in the air. Seems to be headed into the Michael Symes level of Orient strikers

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
One little thing annoys me sooooooooo much. Tom James cant lift a dead ball over their first defender. Not this week or last week or the week before etc, but he still is the free kick/corner taker.
Their third goal came from another sh*t james kick, and a few mins later the same thing almost happened again

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
The facts of life in league One O's budget £4 million. Derby's rumoured to be just short of £9 million and It really showed today. Cooper a complete idiot for using his elbow he's done it before this season and got away with it the game was difficult enough as it was.
A terrible performance though all said and done.
Get rid of the set piece coach on Monday because they are actually getting worse and there are were more than one or two players out there who were not worthy of a shirt today. Sorry Nigel but we are going to have to find some money from somewhere for players if we want to stay up on that showing..

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
Put Pep in charge of this squad he would struggle to find goals and keep us up.
We need a Xmas miracle to turn this squad around in Jan.
Stevenage won again and guess who scored, Jamie Reid with his 13th of the season.
They are a big physical team, playing route one, pumping it up to big men and win 2nd balls.
Maybe we need to be more Stevenage for the 2nd half of the season, instead of tippy tappy slow build up play from GK which is clearly not working.

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
In isolation, it's not unforgivable getting thumped by a much richer, more talented team after one of our centre backs pulled a moron move and got himself sent off. We looked decent until their goal. But the confidence is clearly shot and no matter how capable our midfield can look, it's sod all good if we defend that badly and can't take chances.
Only players that deserve any credit from that are Brown and Hunt. Everyone else ranged from bad to abysmal. Happe in particular needs a talking to as his passivity is going to cost him a good career in the game.

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
Yeah fair point. He made a big difference to our ability to move the ball around in the final third, was pleasantly surprised by his contribution. We desperately need him to get and stay fit.

RW knows what he is doing.

Yes, but do the team know what they are doing?
