Quoted from Mayaman
Seems odd that when MJ made changes, he was tinkering too much.  With IH, he's working out what he's got to play with.


Think any manager has to experiment to a certain degree when he first comes into the club and IH has to know who he is keeping and who won't make the cut. MJ was still tinkering after he'd had time to get in his own players. If Ollie is still chopping and changing this time next year, then that will be the time to question him. For now, i'm happy that he is giving everyone a fair chance as he says. We are not going up or down and generally we are a much better side than we were 2 months ago.

IH inherited most of his squad. MJ had signed most of his by the start of this season.

I’m not sure this is working to a plan...although not from the club but certainly the fans, the excuse of ‘planning for next year’ seems to be trotted our after a urine poor performance.

I thought there were square pegs yesterday but it’s all about opinions.

Yesterday was toilet, simple as that.

don't get me wrong I hate it when managers change a winning team (im old fashioned) but its pretty straight forward to me on what he is doing especially as someone experienced as IH why else would he make those changes after Tuesday especially after a win.

its not going to be long until we get those fans looking to target IH and trust me they will.

We weren't good yesterday but we still created enough chances to get something out of the game. Before IH, we were creating nothing and scoring the odd goal here and there. He's trying to instill a style of playing that all the squad can grasp, and should stay the same whoever the personell is on the day. It takes time.

Yesterday we were beaten by a side that are further along that journey than we are.

Thing is, we have a manager who is way beyond anyone i thought we could attract and the football at BP is already head and shoulders above what it was before he came in. That is after a couple of months. He would have learned a lot about the squad in that defeat and all we can do as fans is trust that he knows what he is doing and give him the time to implement his changes. We'll have setbacks along the way.

We tried a few things, some didn’t work. We lost, but it’s not the end of the world, we still made plenty of chances, but just didn’t take them.
We play again Tuesday, move on.

I think that if you consider that we had 22 attempts at goal against a decent side against the 7 attempts we had against a pretty average Orient side in November, then we are certainly making progress. Add in to the fact, we lost our in-form striker fairly early to be replaced by a very out-of-form striker, then you don't need to look too deeply into yesterday.

Ollie knows exactly what he needs to do in the summer, let's forget about the play-offs now and enjoy the rest of the season.

I thought we were very competitive against a good team in the first hslf. He gambled at half time and it didn't work. Can't remember complaints about lots of changes when he did it for the Colchester game.....

For those of us who didn’t see it, was this Blundell Park standard toilet or FreemoStad toilet?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
