Behind the white railings
David Weir said:Perhaps one of the aspects where we can get better is to make sure we put in great performances for the entire 90 minutes rather than 45 or 60 minutes,” Weir added. “But that sounds like a criticism and it’s not because, like I say, they gave everything they had out there and didn’t deserve what happened to them, they didn’t get those breaks against opponents who have also got plenty of quality and some very good players.
1. "Perhaps"? The fact that we can't keep going past 60 minutes has been a problem from day 1 (we were hanging on against 10-man Notts Co.).
2. "But that sounds like a criticism and it’s not". Well it f***ing well should be. Why do we look so lightweight and unfit? What value is Adam Owen adding?
3. "They didn't deserve what happened to them". Bollocks. We got exactly what we deserved. We didn't score when we were dominating the game - Wolves did. Like so many other teams this season they stepped it up in the 2nd half and we couldn't respond.
Sorry David, but it's not good enough. You're supposed to be a "battle-hardened" professional with bags of experience but I'm stunned by your naivety. Playing "OK" for an hour gets you nothing in English League football. You have to compete for 90+ minutes.
