Calm down. Europa league is Byram run out to try and get players match fit
Wait for qualifying 16 and try and blag it if league form improves. Simples!

Mcgovern when we lose on Sunday fans might just realise we're very much in trouble. there's no team work out there. not like last season it looks like every player is clueless what to do and how to play and I would imagine a few have there heads on the transfer window ready to leave a sinking ship.

. And when we win Skeggs, the fans might just realise that we're not such a bad team after all!
FTID.

Come on Skeg show some faith!
If we lose you mean?
This is a must win game and I'm sure Dyche has told the team what's needed.

Leeds look a really poor side, I'm expecting a win, we should of won comfortably with a weakened side on Thursday so with players back on Sunday be OK
Just play how we did second half against man utd and 3 points, simples skeggs ???.

So much cognitive dissonance here.
We were playing badly under Nuno and not scoring enough goals or creating enough since April 1st last year. Who was to blame? Edu (? ) before he was even in the job?
Ange took over. We created 61 chances and scored one goal so hwe were creating but not scoring. The problem is we were conceding more as well. Whose fault was that? Edu (? ) when we still had the entire defence and midfield from last season plus Douglas Luiz and Savona. We also had more firepower (Jesus et al)
A lot of fans just blamed Ange which defensively was part of the problem no doubt but if we'd taken chances we'd have won quite a lot of those games.
Dyche comes in and the club do a PR thing and lots of fans love the 30% win rate boring Dych-Ball. We carry on underperforming and STILL can't defend set-pieces or score goals. Whose fault is it? Edu (? ) , because he's to blame if the coaches don't know how to set up against set pieces? Is it Edu's fault MGW gives the ball away leading to a loss TWICE, can't shoot and misses a penalty?
It's obvious there is a problem and it can't possibly be just Edu to blame for problems we already had before he was in post or has no control over. I'd agree Edu might be to blame for a lack of cover at FB.
But why couldn't Nuno, Ange or Dych get a tune out of McAtee who has done well in Europe and the Prem before? Why have none of them got MGW looking any better than below average. Why can't we defend set-pieces even under a set-piece specialist in Dyche?
Dyche comes in and after it was all Ange's fault, now none of it is the fault of the coach? Sounds like an agenda to me.
So what is the real problem, then? Are the coaches FORCED to play MGW when he's not in form? Is Wood FORCED to travel to the other side of the world and get injured in a New Zealand friendly or come back with jet-lag? Are the coaches to blame when the team create 61 chances and only score one goal? When did CHO last score or look like doing so more than once every 5 games? Can Anderson shoot? Is Douglas Luiz ever fit?
Just blaming Edu is simplistic nonsense. He may share some of the blame for a lack of FB cover and for signing a crock if Douglas Luiz doesn't get fit. But the coaches and players (ALL OF THEM APART FROM NECO WILLIAMS) are largely to blame.
On the money they are earning, if they can't put the ball in the net or clear a set-piece, the lot of them should be fired. If the coaches don't know how to set-up or bring out the skills they have, then they have failed. All of them.
I also think too many of our players are average at passing. The best passers are Murillo, Luiz (who is never fit), Aina (injured), Sangare, MGW (first half of last season anyway). The passing percentages were better under Ange. Can we capture than but defend better under Dyche?
We should have appointed Brendan Rogers or somebody else with a history of getting teams to control games with good passing and teams that create and score goals. We keep appointing defensive coaches and aren't solving the crisis of not putting the ball in the net or defending set-pieces.
We do have the players, but they are not doing their jobs well enough. It's partly down to coaching, but only the players step out there. Neco Williams, Jesus and Ryan Yates look up for it. If the rest were as committed we'd be fine.

You and carlo make a good couple skeggs
Edu, Edu it's all his fault ????.
8.) 08 Nov 2025 10:53:38
I totally agree Red Cyclist, way, way, too much "Congestion Disco Dancing " on here mate!
??????.
9.) 08 Nov 2025 11:03:12
We tried sign douglas luiz in January before Edu started, like I keep saying Edu is not head of recruitment, just suits the ones wanting to play the blame game.
10.) 08 Nov 2025 11:04:13
Cyclist did we not have a defensive coach last season who got tge best out of a striker with 20 goals ?? and edu out simples.
11.) 08 Nov 2025 11:15:11
Cyclist “Boring Dyche ball”? Did you see the Porto and Man Utd games? Both cracking games surely?
12.) 08 Nov 2025 11:15:57
Very impressive post Cyclist!. Well written and researched if I may say so. A compelling arguement but like Scott Fitzgerald, it outlines opposing sometimes contradictory views and I am sure it causes us all some angst (not 'ange-st'). Do you think Sean has read 'The Great Gatsby'. Anyway, Hutchinson for me! Maybe not!
13.) 08 Nov 2025 11:52:33
Hey Cyclist what's with the Stokey post. You'll be hearing from his legal team shortly ??.
14.) 08 Nov 2025 14:16:06
I agree cyclist but i did nod off half way through that??.
15.) 08 Nov 2025 14:49:42
Good post Cyclist ?.
16.) 08 Nov 2025 22:21:18
Stokey is already sharpening his keyboard to beat that marathon post. I didn't realise it was that long until I just read it back to myself. ?.

Thanks for advice in getting back online guys!
Don't think I've missed much???.

In answer to your player of the season question Bowie I'm delighted to say I really have found it difficult to pick.
If I had to choose I would have to go Chris Wood. not only for all his goals but I've watched him off the ball as well and his work rate for the team is Fantastic!
1.) 23 May 2025 13:29:40
Great reply and well said bud. Thank you for replies reds, some interesting and justified ?.
27 Apr 2025 13:27:30
I did the right thing in letting my friends son have my ticket today (he had used it for all the previous rounds).
Not regretting it but hoping you all have a fantastic day!

Was thinking very similar Red James. very little end product as regards assists and goals.
Wouldn't normally be an issue but no one else in midfield is contributing in those departments.

Agreed RRH!
