The DF lovers go on and on about his style of football and he just lost a few games.
It was not always the players fault we did not get enough points to win promotion, it was the DFs live match decisions that cost us dozens of points. Early in the season in October 2018 his decision making was negative and expensive and cost us dearly. Anybody supporting stags at the Bury away game that finished 2-2 will remember his tactics. To remind those with a tainted memory stags were winning 1-2 with seven minutes of normal time to play. DF takes off Danny rose having earlier took off Tyler walker leaving us with no strikers on the pitch AT ALL and playing an 11 man defense. Not surprisingly we lost the three points to a late Maynard equaliser that a two year old child could see coming. We were not playing good fluid football and it was not a pleasure to watch. I know i was there and witnessed the fans reaction leaving the ground. We were 11 games into the season and fans were not happy with DF and his crap tactics. Nothing changes really does it. Its MTFC and league two get used to it and forget DF for good.
Great post completely agree. What a lot of people on here don't realise is that the reasons for it failing was all down to the manager and his Bertie bigbollocks attitude towards players. People can choose to believe it or not but I always judge a manager by what his players say about him when he is sacked. You have a look at how many were 'sorry' to see him go. Clue, it'll take you a while to find more than one! And I also know for a fact that JR spoke to the players before making his decision as well.
Just because we're in a mess at the moment people are romanticising about a double failure. It's like someone giving you two lottery tickets, one with 3 numbers on and one with 2 numbers. One might be slightly better than the other but it's not worth having either of them at the end of the day!
No mate!
To be honest I did for a while. I think it was Morecambe at home when we won 4-0? I came out of the ground absolutely buzzing, the football was brilliant, the atmosphere was brilliant, I was convinced this was our season. Then the Notts County game! That was extremely disturbing. I found out during the week that DF had been having bust ups during training and that worried me. Then as we saw we had a few other half decent results but the damage had seemingly been done. Once you lose the dressing room it's very hard to get it back. And he'd lost it just like he had when he first came in. Sad really because had we gone up I think he may have still been here and we'd be in League One. But he's behaved like this at every club. I did warn people on here when he first came in that it would happen as it happened at Barnsley. Anyone who drops Bobby Hassell from the entire squad (when he was club captain) clearly has got a problem!
