Yes, you're right, Oggy, and sometimes perhaps we overlook the miracles that Coley must have to perform on a daily basis, working, as he does, with a pitifully small playing budget. I'll still be hopping mad if he plays Williams and Branch this afternoon, though!

I totally agree Wynonie, but in order to play the successful away system, we need 3 central defenders. If Leam plays on the left and Edwards on the right, we need Webb, Roberts and Williams in the middle. There's a distinct lack of options at the back when we play that system.

Coley's not tried Boco there yet, actually, Paul Burns made a good stab at it, so you never know. :)
 
Chimer is spot on!
For f**ks sake grow up!!
Lets sack coley and see who takes the job!
Sometimes i think some people on here long for the days when we were unibonding our way thru life and can keep their moans going in their own little click.
I , for one, am delighted with where we are and I am 100% behind the manager!
Players come and go, JOHN COLEMAN MUST STAY!!

If you are 100% happy with some of the Sh1te that we have been playing at home then you are soon to be in a minority!! People will not come through the turnstiles week after week and pay which to them could be alot of money to watch uninspired lacklustre performances. Sure coleman and co did well to get us where we are But he's lost the plot! The performances show that and likewise the attendances!
 
This reminds me of my first marriage.We loved each other so we became an item.We had one daughter ,then 2 years later a second was produced.Things were going along 'spiffingly'.But then I changed jobs and that placed extra demands on my time.We started getting into a rhythum of familiarity (sp) and as a result we started to drift apart.Squabbles began and we both could see that it was going to effect the kids if we continued on. We tried to make it better,but it was too late-the rot had set in.We divorced and went on to new lives.Now we are both happy and successful in our new relationships.
Maybe its time for Eric and John to have a good look their action on the ASFC family.
 
:rofl38: thats one way of putting it Kiwi [yup worn the tshirt too & wearing a happier one - not stanleys atm PMSL!!]

That is the best analogy of the situation I have seen yet. I for one think it is time for JC and JB to move to pastures new. Yes they have been our most succesful management team ever aand I thank them for that, but it is now getting stale and as others have said, perhaps only 800 home supporters turned up on Wednesday against Rochdale, how many are they expecting against Chesterfield, because the numbers will not be as high from the away supporters for a while yet. We will be lucky to have a crowd of 1200 next week. Things have got to change, and the sooner the better. We need a new strike force, midfield and defence, lets face it a new team. There are a few members of the current team I would keep, but not all of them. And why oh why are we not giving Martin Fearon a go in goal? Give Bav's a break

I'm still not convinced that we do need a new team. Most of the present team would be perfectly adequate for the job - if only they were given tactics to work to and some sense of organisation. It is beyond belief that today we used four midfield players as strikers - and had a striker on the bench all the time. So many of the players seem to have lost confidence. As an example, I believe that Proccy was reluctant to shoot on Wednesday. Can this be the same Proccy who has been so eager to score from 25 yards on so many occasions in the past? How can our consistently dominant central defender be taken off today after only 27 minutes? I wonder what his thoughts are.

Chesterfield turned round a deficit to win at MK last week. Their assistant manager who attended Accy v Rotherham said there was nothing wrong with the Stanley players - its just that they could not "cope" with the formation they were expected to play.
