Almost every other manager rotates a squad during the festive period apart from RE, maybe I will be proven wrong but he does appear to be clueless. The undropables have a huge hold on this manager or coach or whatever he is supposed to be.

Anyway, all the best for the new year to all you O's

Really? There's been quite a generous amount of time inbetween games compared to past years and we're not playing on Saturday so why rotate players?

Perhaps to freshen things up with people who may have the legs to last 90.

Given Angol looked shot before HT and Clay / Wright / Marsh disappeared in the second half against Newport doesn't bode well that they'll suddenly not only recover but also gain L2 fitness levels after a couple of days.

It's not like they're players in form (Turley aside) - some need a kick up the backside to show their place isn't secure.

The two post's above only goes to show up again the lack of experience Ross has as manager.

Ross just does not seem to be able to read a game, well not surprising really, he never made the grade as a player himself !

Sign of a coach well out of his depth in the manager role

You don't have to be a good player to be a good manager but the skills to be #1 are ones he doesn't possess. Wrong character for the job.

I agree but the club still refuse to appoint an experienced manager so we're stuck with Ross . Lost 1-0 . Pathetic.

Thank God both Stevenage and Morecambe lost as well . Just don't want us to get relegated this season . It's pathetic we have to keep hoping they lose when we do .

You don't need to make the grade as a player to be a good manager or head coach

Might get 1 out of 3 wishes granted haha.

Wright was doing OK getting into the box and providing a goal threat early in the season so what does Embleton do? Turn him into a defensive player where his lack of physical presence gets painfully exposed.

As for Clay, seems like he's found his level... good at NL but not up to task in L2. Seems untouchable though, what was in his new contract to make him seemingly first choice every game?

Clay, Wright and Marsh hardly setting the world alight are they ''Undropables'' ? Come on Ross, stop acting like a rabbit, dazzled in the car headlights.
If that’s where he played Sotiriou then I totally agree.3 shots on target . None in the second half is what I heard. We certainly needed to play 2up front to put pressure on the opposition defence. We will not score many goals putting 1 up front.

We had two up front in the second half when we had no shots on target.
