But many other paid professionals in the sport thought the same as said manager of BWFC, so I don't see what you're trying to get at?BWFC_Insane wrote:Indeed but we're not paid to be manager of BWFC.truewhite15 wrote:No, he's not faultless.

Well nobody with any sense.
But even Coyle himself has said he was a big part in the debacle that was yesterday and he deserves criticism as much as the players for yesterday. That doesn't mean get rid. But he played a part in selecting/preparing THAT shower of shite that went out yesterday. And he signed Petrov. So lets not pretend he's faultless.
Re: Papering over the cracks?
I hope no one thinks I'm anti coyle far from it he cocked up and thats it, doubt it will happen again but i;d wager he along with us was shocked at how most of the players conducted theirselves yesterday and I for one hope he does the decent thing and puts a few noses out of joint! Being beaten in a semi final is hard to take, total capitulation is puke invoking and if any play like that again they should rot in hell errr I mean the stiffs.

Re: Papering over the cracks?
Petrov hasn't been half as bad as most people make out.
He hasn't met the weight of expectation when he arrived, thats for sure.
And he was as culpable as every other man on that field yesterday. They collectively f*cked up. The milk is spilt, we've got Arsenal next week, and I would just love it if our Captain would put in one of his old fashioned performances against them.
We've been on an upward curve since Coyle arrived. We've just hit a ruddy big dip in the road, but theres still a mountain to climb, and I for one want to remain on that journey, not drag ourselves back 18 months by making more of this game than we should.
SHit game, shit performance, shit result. Move on.

You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Petrov has been woeful. Even the fooking "skillz" kids who wank themselves silly over anyone who does a stepover know he's been shite.
He hasn't tried. It really boils down to no less than that. When he has time and space and isn't under any real threat of being tackled he can cross a nice ball. When he isn't playing West Ham he's absolutely useless.
He clearly still has the ability to cross a good ball, and still has a bit of pace but he's either mentally fooked from all his injuries or just totally uninterested. Either way whatever we're paying him its too much!

Name the player who can walk off that pitch with his head held high.
Team effort.

Petrov is going down as one of the worst players to don the great white shirt, he's total shite, he can't be arsed does not produce anything the nob make Passi look a world beater.

just trolling through and found this.
1. it's now happening every week
2. he hasn't and his loyalty to those who played in THAT game (Petrov above all) is costing us.
i really wanted the Coyle experiment to work- it hasn't
