Match Thread Most liked posts in thread: Tranmere (home) Friday 15th April 2022

The main training day before a match.

The players liked training at VP and voiced it.

Look, for this club to more forward we need to stop paying high rent all over the shop.

 

Who knows what could have been with WAGMI United as our new owners they bought Crawley on 7th April played 2 won 2 the jury is out .

 

Do you own or rent the land your carwash/valeting business is on?

 

As I said Andy the juries out.

 

They have to justify their salary.

I thought the referee was appalling as he has been for us for many many seasons.
Wat was practically assaulted before he threw him off. You only have to look at what happened to see he lost control of the game. As ppl have mentioned he didn’t book the Tranmere player but gave us a free kick and booked our player for his foul. Most refs might have booked both, but it wouldn’t have got to that if he had stopped the game and given us a free kick and there was no need to book anybody.

Watt is a hot head and Tranmere had done their home work, and they kept at him, and it was nailed on he would be booked again.

we went down to 10 men Bouyson was not100% responsible but he most certainly contributed to it. He should not be reffing at a professional level. Once players lose respect for the ref, discipline goes out of the door.

 

I don't regard Watt as a hothead. He is young and inexperienced yes. Paudie is certainly in the hothead category and Sutton was when he first arrived from Scunthorpe, but on the whole City seem a quite well mannered bunch, perhaps overly so.

 

Why repost twice?

 

Wonder if this played into it yesterday.

People say Paudie is a hothead and a potential liability, but he very rarely gets sent off - and the only time he saw red this season it got overturned.

Paudie being used to being emotional probably let's him avoid going too far. Watt seeming like a fairly cool customer but losing his head a bit like yesterday could be because he just doesn't have the same control.

Yet still, people will watch Paudie and expect him to get sent off.

 

Paudie and Watt are two examples of generally "well mannered" players, who have far too many mental lapses - which differentiate the great from the nearly great.

If they could actually be streetwise all the time, as opposed to one in five matches, then the idea of them playing in upper L1 or higher, wouldn't be too outrageous.

It's sad that we knew the sending off was coming. Boyeson was looking for an excuse to wind us up for the 50 millionth time. Isn't Watt aware of the ref's history? If he isn't that illustrates why he's still got a lot of mental maturity to make.

However, of course both could benefit from been around better players etc

 

I think Paudie is too often rash, in other parts of his game

 

One wonders where they'd be without that wily old fox Peter Clarke. Remarkable considering, he's now 40.

 

Not saying Peter at 40 years old would be the answer but an old head alone side Paudie could bring the best out of the lad.

 

Mobility seems to be the issue . I wonder if he has knee problems ? He does look wooden legged at times.

 

Every team at the bottom of league one is basically losing every match. It's the battle of who can be "the least worst" in the final 4/5 games!

 

May your recovery be swift and sure.

You just have to pull yourself together and work as a team. And be sure to give 110%

If only the side would do that, consistently... It looks as if my hopes for a mediocre last segment might have been misplaced.

Here on in?? The corporate ones are sublime.

Challenging times= We are skint!

 

I could care less.

 

Anything you like, m8?

 

I agree with you.

Watt is one of the players that we should keep - but if he leaves, will be playing for a better club.

Is he perfect, no, has he destroyed the division, no, is he immune to criticism, no, but is he good enough for promotion from League Two?

If not yet, he can be once he's enjoyed a little consistency in terms of coaching and direction.

 

Isn't the back the part that's behind though?
