    We look a step up off the ball already, things are looking up.

    On two-steps up on it. We're playing football again, instead of the rentless pumping balls up the flanks that we we were hellbent on doing the last few months under Smith.

    Ollie messing up alot of moves.

    He needs to make it simple and lay it off and move. He's lost thel ball 3 times doing that fake shot/pass move all ready, taking way to much time on the ball. Theres easy passes back centrally midfield or out to the wings. He's over complicating it.

    World Cup 2022: Qatar

    In true capitslistic fashion I'll take power as the consumer and avoid reading or wathcing anything thats related to this World Cup once it gets going. 

    And I really do hope enough people does, so it hits where it hurts, the revenue. 

    I wont watch it. Any company that choose to pay for a commercial spotlight should be called out and hounded on Twitter as so many people/company's does these days.

    It doesn't sit right with me to sit down and watch football at stadiums, where 6500 people have died building it. For my own entertainment. 

    A world Cup built on the life of 6500 human beings and the tears of their familes. So we can celebrate football in all its divinity, comfortable from home? What makes it even worse, there's so much money involved that it could have been avoided. It's just driven by inhumanity.

    Who's taking a knee for the 16 year old boy from Nepal who lost his life in Quatar as a guest worker? 

    No one. 

    Just don't watch it.

    Felt that every player was improving season by season under his guidance. This season had been terrible though. Poor defending, poor pressing, no possession on the ball, no patterns of play or attacking plan. Just stressed players quickly hitting the ball up the channels hoping for magic to happen. I do wonder where it all went wrong?

    I'm sad to see him go, I'd really hope he'd turn it around. Thanks for everything Dean and best of luck.

    Hasn't he been injured for quite a few months before signing for us? Will take time to get settled and get his match fitness back. I've noticed he does plenty of clever layoffs and backheels where his teammates simply isn't on the same wavelength. Give it some time!
