Exiles thread - Northampton (A)

[RedDwarf 1881]

If you play like a L2 side in L1, you get what you deserve
We are toilet and must be one of the favs for relegation
Soooooo poor
Looking at bench I can’t see anyone who will come on and change the game
If we conceded in a gam it’s game over
I honest think RW is waiting to be shown the door
I love RW but he looks like he knows this team is not good enough for L1

Paying the price for poor recruitment during the Summer . Even I was saying we should signed another striker but it didn't happen . Now we couldn't score in a brothel .

[Sid Bishop]

Every game, possession, possession, pointless possession with no threat, Wellens isn't stupid but how can he not see possession doesn't mean you win games, it's what you do with it

Tunnel vision manager.

[Bandy Legs]

Should be grateful Shresbury aren't playing today

[faith1234]

Just playing people in the wrong positions agyei was signed because of all the goals he scored for crewe up front so we play him in midfield

[Stan1972]

RW copy n paste
60mins on the clock 3 subs
So predictable, and the subs will have no impact whatsoever
Very poor by Richie

If you are an opposing manager, you don’t have to do much tactical research work v Orient
Let them have possession
They done shoot so don’t score
Get to HT 0-0
Score in 1st 5mins if 2nd half
Orient will make 3 subs in 60mins
Soak up any pressure amd hit on the break
Win the game win 1-0 or 2-0
Job done

I think Richie wants out !

A nice 2 1/2+ years salary if he got the sack. Hmmmm

[Rich Tea Wellin]

We are only 1-0, hysteria on here is hillarious. Could easily come back to win this

[i8ubutler]

True, but highly unlikely.

[EliotNes]

O'Neill has had all his natural flair coached out of him IMO. He was terrorising defences when he first joined us. Now nothing.

Four points off bottom, losing the same week every week and in reality our best chance of scoring is probably a defender

[Beradogs]

Our transfer business this summer was done on the cheap. Most supporters are bullish of their club before the season starts, we didn’t even have that luxury as a blind man could see we were going to struggle. Oh well, back to league two we go.

[EliotNes]

I hope we do, but I don't think we will.

Love your optimism

[Qin]

Even though only 11 games gone, we have relegation written all over us.

I'll be absolutely surprised and shocked if we stay up this season

We just can't score a goal.... Not even close today so far.
It's abysmal

[Long slender neck]

Time to try Beckles up front

[faith1234]

We are not going to score as our forward is in midfield

[cymruO]

How do we let games run away from us like this? We sound as though we are very poor and lack any ambition - just looking forward to getting in the showers.

[Story of O]

Have we had any shots this half?

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Quite amazing how we’ve managed to turn a well rated spurs youngster into someone who looks Sunday league within 2 months

Played on the wing at Crewe

One shot on target all game.

100% correct.
Sideways, backwards keep possession !!

[BiggsyMalone]

Just playing people in the wrong positions agyei was signed because of all the goals he scored for crewe up front so we play him in midfield

He was signed to play across the front line, not just centre forward

[Orient_Man_And_Boy]

FUBAR and SNAFU

[Story of O]

63% possession, same old story
