Solihull (A) Match Thread

Quoted from MuddyWaters

We won’t get promoted with this manager and some of his selections. Towler dropped to accommodate Pearson is frankly nuts. Please don’t say he was any better than Towler would have been because Southend were toothless. Tonight, all the Solihull attacks were towards the channel between Pearson and Crookes. Crookes is steady but not quick, Pearson is slow.

Absolutely couldn't understand that selection myself reckon they targeted that one.  Surprisingly really as Hurst had Barnett there winger at Shrewsbury so knew all about him

Two man midfield leaving us exposed move clifton over & play 4-3-3 taylor bell mcatee just behind , it's not rocket science we keep getting done over in away games

On the plus side, it should be a bit easier to get parked on Saturday

Groves to polite. If Gritton had a been supporting JT we would have no doubts how we plyed

Quoted from Hagrid

If Scannell and Grant cant get in this side when we create absolutely intercourse all then whats the point of them

Both fit, flipping play them

Neither is match ready I would assume. Getting fit is only half the battle.

Quoted from DB

So we had McAtee and Taylor on for the main part of the second half they failed, as did Macca. There's not a lot of difference in the selection that were knocking in goals only a few weeks ago.

I wonder if it's complacency that has come into the camp. Most of the players were new to the club and had points to make, Hunt for example. They've now 'settled in' and proved their point but no longer appear to have the motivation to carry on in the same vein.

So, what your basically saying is the management team are useless?...it's up to Hurst, Doig et Al to get the players motivated and up for the game.
There's something just not clicking that was earlier in the season, we tore Wrexham a new one, came fighting back against Barnet, ripped holes through Dover...
This team hasn't lost the plot over night, could it be we are a bit one dimensional and we've been sussed and Hurst hasn't got a plan B, C or D?... whatever it is it has to change and change quick, get a good win Saturday and the gardens coming up roses, lose and the knives will be Hurst back that's for sure

Quoted from Hagrid

Dire. Cant score, cant keep them out. Midfields week, wingers inconsistant

If the new owners have the £££ its about time it was flipping spent

So it’s time to start looking at the new owners is it?

I wondered how long that would take.

Hey come on everyone stop panicking. We’ve got a great new civic pride, our community is now really engaged, the scotch eggs are amazing, our Chairman writes in the Guardian, and a new CEO who loves the limelight and is really photogenic.

With all of that, the football is secondary and we should be counting ourselves lucky

Also this whats this thing about 'not had a proper pre season'? Scannels got over 200 championship appearances under his belt, but not getting 20 minutes against clee town means he's forgotten how to play football?

What that was a bag o'shyte from start to finish. Enough to drive you to drink.

Ryan Sears comes to mind! ;
