Huddersfield Town 0-3 Oldham Athletic
A shambles from start to finish. The daft thing is though, that when I saw the team selection at 1/2 past 2 I was delighted - it was everything the fans had been asking for - 4-4-2, a recall for Chris Brandon and David Mirfin (had a random thought that Jacko had even stumbled across my humble weblog at some point, but I digress....) - even confidently chirped to my work colleague "...brilliant, we'll win today...". Should've known better.
Had the BBC's minute-by-minute service again, and glancing through that I could only see two long range Chris Brandon efforts in the first half - and nothing else - we have created absolutely nothing. Apparantly there were no ideas, the players didn't have any direction, too many long balls hoofed up field..... I was glad to be in work!!! Maybe it is true what they say - Jacko has taken the team as far has he can, because if you look at it, aside from Matt Glennon, Luke Beckett and Joe Scarz, it is the same players we had this time last year when we topped the league. Where is the improvement???
Obviously our players are not good enough, (taking nothing away from Oldham by the way, John Sheridan is doing a fine job), but with no money to strengthen then we are doomed.
There was another demonstraion outside the ground (a lot of idiots there so I'm told), a lot of shouting for Jackos head (predictably) and for Davy to resign (naturally). It is bordering on crisis time.
I'm going to get a bit "...Stand By Your Man..." for a moment, because all this "...Jacko Out..." bollocks will get us nowhere. LEAVE HIM ALONE!!!!! How many more times do I have to say that he has NO HELP WHATSOEVER from the board (no matter what crap Davy would have us believe). It would only take a few new players to freshen up the side, give us a few more options. Now nothing can happen until January, when we could well and truly be in relegation bother if this slump continues. For what it is worth I think PJ will dig his heels in and stay, knowing full well that Davy can't afford to sack him, although I have a worrying suspiscion that a "...mutual consent..." exit might be arranged - I hope not. I am worried though.
