Totally agree topper. Why is "our" best player on the bench? START MCCORMICK!!!! Westbrook is a good player and would shine in a good team. Unfortunately, this Rovers team is mediocre at best and Westbrook is a virtual passenger. Little point playing him. one of the worst players we've ever signed. Totally and utterly usess yet there's a complete love in for him amongst some

A center midfielder, needs to be able to tackle, head, press the opposition, as well as being able to pass. Westbrooke is a passenger. Looks like that's upson and ogogo out for the foreseeable now, now experience in the middle of the park.

As with all managers that have been around a long time. Its the fear of losing that overrides any intention of winning a game from kick off. He cant see past the keeping them out first approach

Westbrooke is sh**e. Total and utter sh**e. Need rid of asap. Hanlan works hard and is a good player but isn't the guy to get 20+ a season. Defensively we are dreadful. Missing Anssi. Tisdale talks a good game and I got reeled in but he has 3 games to save his job IMO. Going down. Tisdale is exactly what Exeter and MK Dons fans told us we were getting. He’s not evolved at all in his time out of the game so he’s probably not going to change now and do radical things like play on the front foot with offensive minded formations, 4 at the back etc. I don’t think the board will sack him either, they didn’t seem to research him very much so they probably still think they’ve got the Paul Tisdale that plays sexy football with youth players and he’ll get us promoted next season. It’s depressing I like how you say he’s not evolved with time, then you moan he does not play four at the back😂. Talk about contradicting yourself straight away.

I agree and i also think they are all decent players in their own right ,they just aren;t a team and probably never will be As for not starting McCormack and bringing him on with about 10 mins left tells me all i want to know and knew about PT

Unfortunately, this Rovers team is mediocre at best and Westbrook is a virtual passenger. Little point playing him. I doubt you get better than Coventry last season but he rarely played in the second half of the season, not sure any team can afford to have a CM who can't tackle to save his life, perhaps with Grant and McCormick doing the work of two in midfield we can carry him but we can't in a midfield two. If was can all see that why can't latest clown we've appointed as a manager see it? Plus if we need a goal why take off Hanlan when he's the only forward player capable of scoring, surely we could have sacrificed a CB today instead of playing with just Ayunga upfront when PT brought on Barrett and McC.

By evolve I mean change his approach or habits, I wasn't referring to him turning into Guardiola.

You cannot change the manager every 5 minutes... We need a striker not a new manager... But this new manager has had 28 days to bring in a striker and has chosen instead to sign a goalkeeper who can’t save anything not hit straight at him and a right back who can’t get in a mid table team in our league? Don’t get a forward in and we will go down it’s that simple Doesn’t matter how many days he’s had if the strikers simply aren’t there or just don’t want to come and play for us . . .

Looking at the fixtures for Ferbraury I reckon PT will be gone if this form continues by the Oxford game and I can't see any player coming in this window if he is walking a tightrope ! If he is still here by the end of February we will most certainly relegated by then. This isn't a meltdown just a bit of realism

By evolve I mean change his approach or habits, I wasn't referring to him turning into Guardiola. That’s my point though. He used to play four at the back at Exeter and playing four at the back is more old school. So he has evolved. Not saying it’s been for the better, but was quite funny you said he has not evolved and then you spoke about him not playing four at the back. We did play four at the back under him before. But when we got all our attacking options injured, he changed formation. We need to change back now. I would prefer a back four as well.

Wael, nice guy though he is, doesn’t seem to be the best at running a football club. He’s in charge of the purse strings though and his main role in so far as the football side of things goes is to bankroll the team- fair enough. As such you’d think he really needs better people that he can entrust to run the football side of the club efficiently and successfully. If Martin Starnes is the best we can do then we might as well accept relegation now. Since Coughlan left every decision seems to have backfired. Can’t pick a manager, can’t spot a player and yet Widdrington gets a promotion! What sort of message does that send out? The whole lot needs an overhaul from the board down to the team.

You are Wael and I claim my £20 Don’t have a clue what you’re talking about😂. I agree we should play four at the back. I was just pointing out that not playing four at back, does not show that someone has not evolved. As 3 at the back, is used more now than it was in the past. So that does not add up.
