" Carney - Tonge - Fahti? - Hendrie

Id say thats the best chance we have at the moment of doing something. "
be tough with hendrie injured ;)

maybe we should be looking to get better coach's in to train the players how to pass and defend?

Yeah, but not seen as Hendrie should be fit for the wolves game according to Robson.

They can pass and defend, we saw that against West Brom.
 
Foxy, you went. Did you not see the 2 twenty yard passes he attempted to do in the first half? Both went straight out of play, he did far far more than Tonge? Dont be daft, they were both bloody awful, the whole side was awful.

Monty gets stick because he cant pass a football 5 yards to his teamates.

The song is very harsh I agree, but a football player who cant pass a football just isnt good enough.

Don't even think tonge made 2 passes barely noticed him all game!


and as for being consistent

I say when tonge plays crap, i comment when he plays well, seems fair enoguh to me?

And the pass back which they scored from, which shouldnt of been disallowed for offside.

So your basing his slating on 2 passes?, He played good balls into the strikers more than twice! If one of the twenty yard passes is the one i'm thinking of, it was due to the winger he was hoping to bring into play being totally out of position more than it being a bad ball.

How exactly did Tonge do anywhere near as much as Monty?

This situation came from Monty tracking back and doing the right backs job, beating 2 men and then looking around for anyone to help him out by becoming available. The whole midfield and defence were just stood about with their markers watching him so he had to turn back after being met by two Scunny players. There was absolutely nothing on, whilst he shouldn't have played it back into the danger area, there was absolutely no help whatsoever from his team mates and no outlet for him to play the ball into.
 
Scunny fans say it was the best match ever.........

:loopy:

COMMENT: I have been lucky enough to see hundreds of games over the years and I have to say that the game on Saturday was the best ever!

It had everything... a disputable disallowed goal, two fantastic goals to give the Iron the lead in a match that they dominated for 70-plus minutes, two goals by the Blades to pull the game level, two sending-offs (Cliff Byrne seemed to be very harshly treated) and a wonderful last-minute goal by Matt Sparrow to seal a magnificent victory in what was a superb team performance.

So then the safest thing to do would be to hoof it clear.
 
We are a club and more specifically a team in transition. As I said the other week, it will take time for the transformation from 'direct' to 'possession' football to take place. Painful process is change, especially when you have to take a step back to be able to take the two forward. Doesn't help when you've seen it all before, either!! :(

Surely not? that would equate to being slagged off for "twenty yard passes" that didn't come off?
 
Foxy, at the end of the day he cant pass a football.

Everybody knows it, everybody can see it, its not good enough.

Of course its not just about 2 misplaced passes, its the fact that he constantly gives the ball away when we should be trying to play possesion football.

Monty is fine when its backs against the wall and battling, but as soon as he gets the ball he panics.

What do you mean, how did Tonge do as much as Monty? They were both garbage! But Monty has shown in every game this season so far that his passing is not good enough.
 
monty has played some decent balls but not gets credit. typical united fans though at the end of the day, player does something good, its overlooked, 2 bad balls and hes slated to hell.

saw monty play about 3 bad passes. keef, tonge and armstrong to name a few, gave the ball away more than him.

at west brom, monty had a really good game, over looked again.

Give the lad some credit. Id like to see all the people who slag him off step into his boots and do better, cos ill put a bet on it now, most wont.

The abuse he gets and never credited.

I'd agree with all of that and until we get better players in than what we have we have to get behind them.

Slagging him/them off constantly at matches and on forums will not get us anywhere.

We all want better players but we don't always get what we want.

I agree, but it's just natural with Monty now, he's took stick for years. I am a fan but sometimes you recognise him do mistakes quicker than with other big named players. I think people forget that he's now our longest serving player along with Tongey, yet Tongey doesn't get as much stick as Monty does. Just let's give him support might give him confidence, can't be nice having your own fans slating him, i admit i do sometimes but we can only support him.
 
Would you prefer that I aired these views at the games?

Whats the problem, its a FORUM where people air thier views.

Thats all others are doing, airing their opposing views.
 
The challenge for the Manager is to get the best out of the players he's got. To find a way to make it work. If Monty can't pass, make sure there's always someone 5 yards off him cause you know he will win the ball. Now was that hard?
 
oh that has to be a contender for comment of the year from sharpy there!

LMFAO!
 
The biggest downer was going on the train so we could drink, then only having two pints.:shakehead:
