Should not be losing games like that

I still don't think you can judge Pederson based on what he's working with.

He did choose to take it on, so he was fully aware of the problems we were facing. 

What he needs to be doing is helping build and preparing the side for next season. That means exposing some of our younger players to first team games. That's my only real criticism and it's a small one. You've got young lads on the bench. Let's use them.

Heartbreaking should not be losing games like school boy defending his this manager the one to take us forward 

Have a think about how many players we have, who were the candidates for manager during the summer, how many coaches have left, how much money there is to spend on new players, to pay staff, to pay travel costs, etc, etc.

People who post the drivel in the OP should be banned.

Blaming Pederson is like expecting a carpenter to work wonders with rubber chisels.

Nope serious... a couple have just said HP can't make changes when the players are getting tired.

 

Just wondering why.

Unless I've missed something as I haven't read the whole thread.

Cos we haven't got a squad is the quick answer mate

He's a coach. A decent coach. He doesn't manage and never appears to have a Plan B. 
I've said it often enough but I'll say it again, we should be playing each game to grind out a point with the possibility of maybe, just maybe, digging out the occasional scrappy winner. 
 

If that means 4-4-2 or 5-4-1 until we have new owners, then so be it. The 'style' of football should be irrelevant and it should be all about getting points and avoiding shipping goals.

Looking back on this seasons games,especially at home,weve thrown quite a few points away imo,by stupid game management and subs when far too late .

Are players over coached these days that they can’t follow the basics.

Totally agree,must be confusing for some of the players,

Let's be honest he is gone the second there's a new owner

Perhaps the new owner(s) need to settle in , get to know the club ,management staff and players before making important decisions .The piggies new owners sacked their messiah when they came in , only to arrange a resurrection a short time later .Lets not be too hasty and if needs be , take a little time to appoint the best for the situation we are in .

I think that yesterday was a call to any prospective new owners from HP... " this is how I'd like to play if we had the squad to do it " 

I love to know who how dead ball specialist is cus he without any doubt needs the sack

Pedersen let that second half drift and did nothing to change it until we went 3-2 down. 
 

Wont be here next season hopefully. Needed Redmond and Cooper on earlier when you could see we were starting to tire. 

It’s a different game if McNeil scores though?

We were unlucky yesterday

To be fair he’s giving the likes of Fusire, McNeil and Cadamarteri a fair crack at it?

He is. But he's got others he can use as well, especially if some of our players are red lining.
