Blown it: Wolves 1 West Ham 1

It all seemed to be going perfectly. One nil up early, dominating and playing well. But we couldn't find another. Had we got a second, I'm sure they would have folded.

Once again, we've been unlucky and it's swung the game around. From various reports I hear that it's never a penalty, and then we had an appeal turned down!


You have to look at the team, we needed a goal but we offered nothing and created nothing. I like Edwards, and the booing is not helping but he's not someone you look to for a bit of magic. Where was Milijas? In limited appearances last season he saved us with moments of magic or a decent set piece.

Why give Ebanks-Blake four minutes? He earned his place in the team, and was dropped while in good form. You could tell we missed Henry, which is terribe because we won't even have Mancienne in the next match to hold it together. It looks like it will have to be Kevin Foley.

It's all looking very bad, and with these four fixtures coming up we could be adrift with no wins in eleven. Somewhere, somehow we need to get some unexpected points.

  1. His team decisions are insane... we had, at any point in the game 70% of our championship side playing...

  3. What's more important, that we stick by the man that brought us premier league football or stick with premier league football?
    I know surprises happen in the beautiful game but our next four fixtures could leave us well and truly adrift and with virtually nothing left in the way of confidence. Those following, supposedly winnable games don't seem so winnable from that perspective.
    Mick either needs to quit his favouritism and pick a team which is balanced and capable of competing, creating, scoring goals, or he needs to go so Morgan can bring in someone who will do that.

    Martin O'Neil please.

  4. Said who ? Said who exactly? Ive given credit where credit is due, its only fair to do so, but this bloke is no genius, and his well documented stubbornness, is going to get us nowhere.

    I have also paid compliment to our attack and midfield, organised largely by mick, but we've got talent that sits on the bench, or not even selected at all.. why ? why? A championship defence populated by his favourites... Where, where is it written in his manifesto that Ward must play at all costs... I expect him in goal any minute now..

    Feel free to follow him into the mire, Bob, but ive had enough, and i think the tide is turning on your genius.

  5. Absolutely. Im adding my vote to the mickout brigade and O'Neill would be incredible..

  6. Bob isn't calling him a genius, hes pointing out the obvious cases that people loved him three games into the season and five later want him out. He got us there and he's kept us there and he gets my backing.

    Who else could we get anyway? O'Neill would never come to us, then there's Jewell, Southgate and Curbishley? No thanks.

  7. favouritism? that's crazy! so if you were in charge you'd pick the players you didn't like

  8. O'Neill would be more than incredible...it would be evidence that you were still asleep

  9. thanks for explaining that merlin. I didn't think I was being particularly cryptic but never mind. Hysteria in either direction (mick out/mick is god) is never helpful in these kind of situations. I don't think morgan will panic

  10. I watched the game and a reply. When a team does so well in the first half and sits back so badly in the second half the manager has to take the blame.
    It is time for him to go, this group of mid table players deserve better

  11. Like and dislike don't come into it. He's a supposedly professional manager who should pick the BEST player for any given position, not stick one in there because they're his favourite.

    So to answer your question, yes, I'd pick players I do't like if they could do a better job than ones I did like. There's no room for sentiment in business - and that's what football is, big BIG business.

  12. obviously, his FAVOURITES are the players he thinks are the BEST! Duh! What weird criteria are you working on? Do you think mick hangs out with the players in his spare time?

  13. Of course you are right. In fact, you obviously have a better knowledge of the going ons inside the club than Mick. mick out! JacobWolf in!

    I know I'm usually pretty negative, but Mick is the best man for this job. He created this young hungry side that is going through a rough patch. Yes we have had a shit run, but we have some games that we don't expect anything from so ANYTHING is a bonus!
