from the way we started a point isnt so bad in the end, that first half was so bad we could have easily been 2/3 down to a more clinical side. much work to do for howe, these next 4 games could honestly be make or break for us at this point because our run over the christmas break is fucking aids

Nice to see us make a tactical shift that actually worked for once. Shame about how ultra-defensive we were in the first place, like

Tactical shift was like, "OK lads now put in a bit of effort and actually run".

Says a lot about Bruce that fucking Conesy managed to accrue almost the same amount of points from 3 games that Bruce did in 8.

It does really. I think others have said Jones looks like a good coach who struggles a bit with the bigger picture. And the ultra defensive approach smacks a little bit of someone either lacking a bit in ideas or confidence perhaps. But you can see where he’s coming from, ie if we’re hard to beat, we’ve got a chance. He’s picked up as many points as you could probably have hoped for in those games in charge and the last 30 minutes gives us something to work with. Definitely time for the few man to cone in and inject some new ideas and impetus but, like you say, he’s done  better than the managerial legend he’s taken over from.

Results-wise we’ve probably done as well as you could reasonably hope in his games in charge.

Depressingly that second half was arguably our best of the season :lol: as shit as it was, I struggle to remember one better this season. At least we had some passages of play where our players completed passes to one another. 
 

As bleak as it’s looking we still have 27 games and the added benefit that we have money to spend and improve the team in January. If we can keep within 6 points of 17th by January we will be safe come the end of the season as I’d back Howe with a big transfer budget to better the shite sides in those spots by 2 wins over the rest of the season.

 I don't have much problem with the defensive shape tbh, it's what these players have been schooled in for the last 5 years. But there doesn't seem to be much thought given how to counter effectively. This is what the likes of Rafa probably spent most of his time addressing and setting up. But you need good passers from the back to do it, and Jones doesn't fancy the ones who can do it.

I think he just concentrated on getting us fit and hard to beat again. He knew it was short term and it was the right approach from where we were in a period of uncertainty. I'd have done the same.

We've played 11, and of the 27 remaining, I think there's 11 where we get nothing. 16 games with some points in them. We are going to have to battle to get through this season.

Officially the worst start to a season in the clubs history. Given the December fixtures we are getting into "the great escape" territory.

Makes it a tougher job to convince decent players to sign for us in January. 

Brentford, Norwich and Burnley in the next 4 games. Need at least 7 points out of those 3

Howe will prove to be an amazing appointment. The players are limited but capable under a capable manager, I'm thankful it's happened in November. We'll look ready to push on in a few months.
