Before yesterday we had 7 games left, just come off a decent performance at Bolton and Cowley feels he can make 5 changes because we have a tough game against Rotherham on Tuesday. Personally I would have stuck with the same team to get a morel boosting win at a below mid-table team going into the Rotherham. All this rubbish about how many games we have in a short time, they just have had 2 weeks off.(10-04-2022, 07:25 AM)bluetagagain Wrote: How I’d love a Neil Warnock style manager. Someone would sort the dressing room out. Just a pity he’s retired.
He wouldn’t tolerate lack of effort and ‘going through the motions’ that’s for sure.
Walker wouldn’t be anywhere near the starting line up for a start and he would put a rocket up Harness’ backside too.
The Cowleys are into ‘sport science’ rather than passion, you need a mixture of both and the game can not be played on a laptop.
Five changes again yesterday says it all. You need a settled side in order to get some consistency, only teams like Citeh, who have world class players throughout the squad, can get away with chopping and changing all the time.
A decent manager knows his best eleven and plays them, unless forced to change by injury or loss of form.
Please, please, please give us a decent manager.
I was really hopeful that after the boring football under Jackett the Cowley’s would be a bit of fresh air but sadly not. After 56yrs of following Pompey home and away it is getting harder and harder to justify another season ticket.
