Know its more about looking forwards now but fuck me, why did Ainsworth play that brainless non-passing football? . Because he is a brainless, thick idiot. “Possession can do one” |

Know its more about looking forwards now but fuck me, why did Ainsworth play that brainless non-passing football? As a fanbase it turns out we weren't mad after all when we all kept saying we do actually have some players who can play football if you manage and coach to their strengths. Confirms to me he never adjusted from leaving Wycombe and didn't appreciate the qualities of Chair, Willock, Paal, Cannon and Dixon-Bonner (take a bow lad) who can all actually pass a football. Who knew? Apparently not Gareth. agree the squad was built by Warburton and added to by Beale with players who like playing with the ball. Ainsworth anti football was never going suit the squad. We would have got nothing if he had been in charge today as the game plan would have been lump it forward chase it and empty the tank. |

Much much better than the previous few months and he’s only been here a few days. Though Dixon bonner had a good game which is a massive positive. Willock should get better with a run of games. Things to be positive about in absolutely disgusting conditions. Lots of positives. Bonner, richards, willock on the pitch and smyth not at wingback. Enjoyed watching our passing and movement. What will let us down is not having a striker at the club. Got to give kelman a run of games to see if he can do anything. Agree. We can create chances, kellman is a poacher not a chance creator. If we presented him with some actual chances I’d have more faith in him testing the keeper than dykes. Even the one he poked towards goal could have gone either side of the keeper. Dykes wouldn’t even have been in the same postcode as kellman |

Chair MOM actually went outside and crossed with left a couple of times for a change. Dixon-Bonner has to get a run and Donkey has to be benched. A couple of cross field passes and fuck all else.

Only a couple of days to work with the team, so have to be pleased with that- I thought we’d lose.
Stops the rot and sets us up for a home win against Bristol City.

He got an easier ride from fans, me definitely admittedly due to the fact he was such a nice fella but in truthfulness he was a fucking terrible manager who completely shackled that team. Same for me. So wanted it to happen for him, but he wasn't up to the task. |

Plenty of crosses went into that box and donkey was nowhere to be seen. The service was there, he was not. |

Why have we not seen more os bonner under Ainsworth he looks a terrific little player defo should have had more game time. Gets about the pitch, athletic, can pass and is vocal. Criminal a manager didn’t see that or use him. |

And in fairness to a few of our managers pre-Ainsworth they did actually acquire some quite decent players for not much money. With only a couple of exceptions there isn't much dross left here. If by some miracle we could get a striker on loan in Jan and Marti gets more time to coach these players think we are at least in with a shout of turning this round. |

Good point. Not getting carried away though. Dykes is crap,always has been,always will be. That was the one negative for me today AGAIN. I actually can’t stand the bloke. Fucking useless. Needs to be binned and replaced as soon as we can. Kelman should start before him. Even Kolli. |

if marti doesn't work out just bare in mind you'll be banned from this forum  i'm sure there's a few hashtags we could come up with if we go on a bad run of form I know. I can feel the pressure already, no doubt about that   |

Didn’t like that Paal, Willock and Chair spent majority of the game occupying the left side only.
Same with Cannon,Bonner and Smyth down the right side.
I realise it’s Marti first game but it all felt a bit rigid in structure.
Dykes was awful and even Sinton and London have sussed he concedes possession of the ball too much.

Why have we not seen more of bonner under Ainsworth he looks a terrific little player defo should have had more game time. Absolutely. Remember being quite excited when he arrived but was never given a chance. Him and Field look a very promising pairing. Hope he gets a run. Be interesting to see if the competition gets more out of Coleback and Dozzell. |

Forgot to mention Richards too. As a manager surely its about managing your players so you get your best players out on the pitch. Its not that complicated. What I’ve been saying and many others have been saying for ages. A good manager puts an arm round your better players and gets them playing. You don’t throw a strop and drop them just because they’re not doing what you want 100% of the time you use your skills to get the best out of them. He clearly has fuck all of that. Might be a disciplinary issue,time kèeping,turning up for training,attitude. Agreed about putting arm round him but you have to earn that right and be special. e.g. like. NW with Adel. Otherwise you could be seen lenient with him yet not with others. |

He has had two training sessions and we looked a different team. We looked good under Beale when Chair, Willock and Paal linked up on the left. Now for the first time we have a threat down the right too. Under Gareth brain-fart we had neither. |

I've been quiet about him as we haven't created anything so felt it would have been unfair to criticize only him. Today we created but he was abysmal. |

If Richards is out with gangsta mates and not turning up for training or whatever it is he does (don't think any of us know) then by all means drop him. But think manager right to give everyone a fresh start which has enabled him to turn a problem (no Coleback, Dozzell, JSC etc) to an advantage by giving a chance to a few of our most naturally gifted players who have been out in the cold. If they respond then great, if not he's at least tried.

It definitely is harsh but I felt it was a bit predictable at times, absolutely can’t deny it was streets ahead of what Ainsworth had them doing for 9months. The same players were continually making the same runs, and the same players seemed anchored behind, would like to see some rotation in runs from alternate players. |
