Marti did a great join last year to keep us up and really brought some professionalism and class to proceedings. I can help but feel that his performance in the championship was improved by having Ainsworth's salt of the earth type pros around him and polishing that turd well. He is now trying to build a budget tiki taka style at the bottom of the championship and it just isn't working. I really thought that we would turn a corner this year and be in mid table with clear progress and enjoyable football to watch. I have tuned out for the last few games. I just check results and come on here for a limited amount of time to see how my fellow Rs are reacting. It's just not fun supporting the Rs again. It's not like I'm going to support another club.....I just do other things and watch other sports instead. Such a shame as I do like Marti.
Just watched this because of the recommendation. Good watch and interesting to see the impact of "love love....not tough love" from the fans. I thing Clear probably needs love love until he gets a goal. Not as obvious how you'd do that in football as there aren't the breaks in the game. Maybe some kind of chant whatever his performance. I guess some people go to the football as it is a safe space to be judgemental and angry. Don't get me wrong....it's bloody annoying that he's not scoring. But do we really think he's not doing his best and would love to score every week. Each week the pressure must be growing in his head.
There is a possibility that he is a bit unique and that takes time to adjust. I'm glad he's here and that he scored. Yet to see a performance that shows me what he can do.
Obviously what Marti is looking for so happy to go with that.
Our change in fortunes coincided with him moving to right back. Sorted out the defensive set pieces and gave us some passion. Not sure he is the long term solution and he'll have to play in the centre at some point. Love him though....a proper R.
Started brightly. Lloyd was a threat. Frey quality and the ball movement good to watch.
First ball in the box and we were so deep they had too much time to put a good ball to the back post. Unmarked header from 6 yards. Decent save from Nardi but Dunne got in a tangle and in went in the corner. Shite and unlucky at the same time.
After the goal we lost all direction and they started playing in behind us and pressing us at the back. We didn't concede again and can regroup at half time.
